{quote} I'm not aware of a way to achieve what you want with your SL/TP scenario, like having a cake and eating it to. Trading each session as individual cases, might be worth pursuing. For me though I like to keep it mostly simple, start trading on Tokyo open and stop as soon as my Basket EL target is hit. I find on any particular day you don't know which session will bring in the Profit or hit your SL, so I find sessions tend to compensate each other during most days.
HI JustUncleL

Thank you, I have two more questions:

Q1) ok so if "Stop after 1" functionality is set, then the DB will stop after any of the following 3 are hit:

1) SL
2) EL
3) TP

is this correct ??

Q2) If the DB is stopped (as per any of the above events) how can I initiate it again without loosing the Cycle PnL?
Lets say I traded the Asia session and my Basket SL is hit and the DB stops and the next session starts (London) and i want to initiate the DB to carry on.
Ho w do i do that?

Thank you

H

On the CT Dash Board is the "Stop After/Go at Profit" button working differently than the S9 Toolbox?

Here is the way I am doing it at present, although this idea is still being tested and has not been confirmed yet.

1) I put the DB on a Daily USDTRY, this will then let it take only one basket each day when the Auto Restart is Active.
2) I set the stop after to 5, this lets me get 5 baskets, one each day of the week as I start trading on the first day of the week.
3) I have Close all trades end of session engaged so all trades if still open 1 hour before end of day will all close down.
4) With Auto Restart engaged 1 hour and 2 minutes after the next new day opens it will start looking for trades and start a new basket.
5) I am using the Basket EL as my TP and stop trading for the day as exits if hit, if it is not hit all trades close like I stated at 1 hour before the day ends.
6) The TS has a safety SL built in for some pair protection but you may want to also use the DB SL set at 1 or 2 in case a pair goes crazy in the wrong direction or the Broker SL in the settings just in case.

The idea behind this is to set it up within that 1 hour no trade time after the new day starts at the beginning of the week and it should run all week by itself taking hopefully 1 basket each day and repeat and reload for 5 days (5 baskets) without having to do anything by the trader.

Of course you could have a losing day if the basket EL TP doesn't get hit or closes end of day at a loss.

Of course you have to remember not to make any changes or change chart periods as this could screw up the weekly cycle, you need to leave it alone and do its thing.

This is just an idea where fully hands off automated trading comes into play, it will take a week or 2 too see if it has any merit.

{quote} Hi JustUncle and Gene If i have two trading sessions set in a DB and i get stopped out (Basket SL hit) in the one session and the next session starts, does the DB start trading automatically again in the second session or will it remain switched off? in case it remains switched off how do i activate it again without loosing the cycle PnL? regards H
If you have the button set to "Go at Profit" it will continue to look for new pairs to build a new basket as long as you are in a open trading session.

The Basket Equity reading always displays the difference between the P/L column and the Cycle P/L reading, this tells you what profit you will have if you close everything down right then.
I think of Cycle P/L as what I have gained and put in the Bank so far, but if the P/L column is at a loss you could be negative P/L if closed down right now.

The Cycle P/L will not get cleared unless you start over fresh.

If you open properties and click OK everything gets started over. If you just want to look at the settings just open the properties but just then click cancel.

If you start over fresh and trades are still open they will still register and be shown until you close them if they were opened by the DB.

This makes sense to me now. I was hung up on baskets per day per time frame. So "Go at Profit with "Auto Restart Active" would just run it one basket per trading day until you told it not to anymore (or windows decided to update on you ) Thanks for the clarification, looking forward to further testing.

My results for the day:

Did the same test today as previous, only today i started at the London session:


Tested:

- HAS (Direction entry and Has opp exit) + BO +PipLock
- 2 X HAS settings (2.6.2.3 & 1.21.1.13)
- and 3 time frames: M5 , M15, M30

Terrible day with lost of sideways movement --> whipsaw. If i used DB SL of -150$ and EL of 100/20 and "Stop after " , I would probably have been able to squeeze out some profit on most of these

London open indicated in Yellow Arrows and NY in White:

Some pairs trade best during certain sessions, like the GBP pairs trade best most of the time during the London session. You can find tables on the net that show which pairs seem to trade more during certain sessions.

Some traders will only trade the GBP pairs as a basket during the London session, the EUR pairs also do good during London, of course London is always more active and the overlap with NY is very good going into NY.

If I am looking to trade 22 hours I normally trade most of the 28 pairs as I never know which ones are going to pop and hit my Basket EL.

Some traders think if they keep getting big red DD graphs if they just take the opposite trades the chart will be all green, well that doesn't work. LOL

Its a long road to learn and conquer this Forex Beast.

Answers:

1) Yes that's correct, if you have the Basket EL,TP and SL set.

2) Not completely possible, however, with some smart use of "Go for Profit", "Time Close" and Session times you might accomplish something close. You could also make use of the DB "STATS" and set a "Trade Comment" in the DB properties, then all trade stats get accumulated to the Comment. For example I collect my stats to the week number (currently Week50) and I then view the stats for the week like this

Don't expect a profit everyday or every session. As Seller9 stated some pairs work better in different sessions. As for using the broad brush of all 28 pairs, there is a lot to be said for getting in and out for the day, ie setting "Stop after 1", keeping your market exposure to a minimum. You need to strike a Positive balance between Profitable days and Loss days over the longer term, that's why I'm taking a long time to test each of my setups to find optimal Basket EL/SL combos that give me that balance, before committing to Live trading.

PS: Personally I have had no long term success with any setup on chart time frames less than 60mins.

No, same one I have.

It is not a button only a display that shows when it is selected in the settings and the state it is in. Green will place trades and Red it will not.
