This is a continuation to my Post #20,380.

I started trading the system using Preset 2 on January 13, 2022. I traded it daily. The following results are for the period January 13 to April 29.

Total trading days: 77
Total real baskets opened: 32

Manual Close Baskets: 12, +7.3% profit
Baskets reached TP: 15, +35.5% profit
Baskets reached SL: 5, -29.1% loss
Total Profit: +13.7%

Profit by Month:
January: +5.4% (started Jan 13)
February: 2.9%
March: 1.2%
April: 4.2%

If these results continue, the expected annual profit will be about 41%.

On my next post I will show details for Preset 1.

Yes I also had also similar results (around 9%) with Preset 1 on IG, AXI, XM standar accounts and IC markets raw (real accounts).

But I was doing some experiments and therefore these values are not a good reference since I had some manual closes on profit and in January I ran the 3 presets at the same time on the same account but each one with a lower risk setup (0.01/500 with 1,25% TP and 2,5% SL).

Meanwhile I developed my own EA based on Grandaevus CMSM indicators and on my own ideas of how to do basket trade and I'm doing a lot of tests with it.

Some questions related:

1. If in the future I will decide to publish my EA can I publish my EA here on this group?
2. Shall I contact someone by PM to review and approve the EA and the post before publishing it?
3. Is there any copyrights or some code that I should implement to protect the EA and avoid any problems?

Hi , the title of thread is "CCFp basket trading" so the delevoper of ea is Xmess actually but if we talk about another ea use the same indicator and logic of basket trading , I think you can publish here too ( maybe @Xmess read and give us an opinion too). About code to implement for hacking is your choice if u want to give ea for free or you will sell in the future. Until now as you see from result on 60 days of trading time ( included 20% of DD) my account grow up to 17%( totally set & forget using 3 preset together ).
Best wishes to all.

1. If in the future I will decide to publish my EA can I publish my EA here on this group? Yes. as long as its related to the thread.
2. Shall I contact someone by PM to review and approve the EA and the post before publishing it? Thats not necessary.
3. Is there any copyrights or some code that I should implement to protect the EA and avoid any problems? You can add protection if you want to, but be careful its not interpreted as a commercial protection.

Hi guys, so seeing that some of you are using my presets I thought it best to re clarify once again about what I'm trading on my TE.

As I mentioned in post #20305 I dropped trading presets 2 and 3 and I am now only trading preset 1 on my TE, but I am however trading 2 variations of the same preset.

One is the original preset 1 with nothing changed at all and the other is the same preset, but adapted for trading with lower risk which is suitable for prop trading. For the lower risk preset I have increased the lots per balance and lowered the SL & TP targets. Both are running 100% set & forget with no manual intervention as all.

Hope thats clear for everyone.

So far this preset seems to be consistent and in line with last years forward tests and is continuing to make profits. I feel completely confident in this preset and that it is suitable for live trading and for prop trading, in fact there is a forum member who already passed a MFF challenge using only the low risk preset 1.

The risk is also scalable so for those who have a higher risk appetite you can scale it up for more profits with increased risk, or scale it down for lower profit, but with lower risk like the prop firm preset.

Can you link to a newer version of setting 1? Or instructions on how to change some variables. Please.

CMSM V17.02 for Mt4 & Mt5 Change Log: Added CandleIndex. All previous versions of CMSM calculate strength values for the last candle (current candle) . With this parameter, you can calculate the strength of any candle on your chart. CandleIndex = 0 equals UseCurrentCandle= true in ccfpDiff CandleIndex = 1 equals UseCurrentCandle= false (previous candle) in ccfpDiff Added Currency Weights. Say EUR strength = a * EURUSD + b * EURAUD + c * EURCAD + d * EURCHF + e * EURGBP + f * EURJPY+ g * EURNZD. Previous versions of CMSM and ccfp give an equal weight...

There is no new setting of preset 1, if you read what I said, "One is the original preset 1 with nothing changed at all"

I am using the exact same preset I tested for over a year and the same one I shared here, and what you see on my TE.

It's all the same NOTHING CHANGED. It's really not complicated.

Grandaevus already shared that info long ago, I suggest you do a search and you'll find it.

hey mrdfx

yes one is the original preset with nothing changed, but to quote the rest of your sentence '...the other is the same preset, but adapted for trading with lower risk which is suitable for prop trading. For the lower risk preset I have increased the lots per balance and lowered the SL & TP targets.'

what dokopy and also others like myself are interested in, is this adapted, 'other' version of your preset 1

any help would be greatly appreciated

Everything is the same except for the lot size, TP and SL. For example…..if his preset 1 was originally using at TP of 2.5 and SL of 5 and the lot size used was 0.01/250. The adapted preset would look something like this……1.3% TP and 2.5 SL and lot size of 0.01/500. You can adjust the TP and SL however you want as long as you adjust the lot size accordingly. This will keep the number of pips to reach TP roughly the same.

Ok guys, here are the exact 2 presets I am using on my TE.

"Preset 1" is preset 1.

"Preset 1 Prop" is the one which is altered for trading prop firms.

Can't be anymore clear than this, this should clear up any further questions or confusion.

The only 'downside' I can see for trying this with prop firms is that they generally have a rule that a SL must be set....thoughts!!

Maybe you could set the SL as required, but have a way to immediately re-enter the trade(s). It would be cost you spread and commission of course, but it could be worth it.

I have not encountered this issue with my own prop trading and if the prop firm does require a stop loss then you can set a hard stop loss in the EA's settings.

hey mrdfx

thanks for the share. I noticed that for these two setfiles, the GMT open (and GMT close) are set one hour before the previous version of your daily settings from post 20103 (i.e. these new ones open at 06:45am whereas the previous ones open at 07:45am)

just wanted to check that that was all ok, because you'd mentioned that the TP / SL settings were the only difference

thanks,

blam

GMT of the previous post (#20,103) was for Winter time....so we talking about this many and many times also in the latest posts....better spend a few time to read the previous posts.
