Automated trading can help with consistency and emotion-free execution, but no EA is perfect. Always test thoroughly on demo first and combine with manual oversight for best results.

Quoting Magregus
Just wanted to report basket close worked. S4 hit a target and closed down trades and has started a fresh basket now.
Hi Magregus
Ive just downloaded the the V9 manager and have set the manager to tp 10% , since then its taken one take profit , but now it has not reset, so ive had to turn it on manualy 24 hour and all
currencies, where is the tab to turn it on and off.
Thanks Steve

The Manager v10 and Strategy 6 are being worked on:

The Manager will have a CSM and Daily graph which will be used by Strategy 6 and possibly other future strategies.
The CSM will only use the default 28 pairs to determine currency strengths of the main 8 currencies.
Also you will be able to adjust the Max Spread for individual pairs if one or more in your list are too far off from the default setting.

If you are using the "Trade Comment" in the settings as a filter for the Stats Window remember MT4 only allows a maximum of 31 characters, so try and keep the trade comment to 31 or less characters.

I used .1 lots this week -- loss of $1K. Pay no attention to the header stats as I was testing a strategy on the same demo account.

I have some doubt about the accuracy of these reported results as I did have some PC issues last week - so not gospel. Strat 01 I will show the Manager but 2 - 5 are in Trade Report as more easily digested, for me anyways. I am just letting it run for the first four weeks as 24 hours all pairs. Then I'll review.

The same issue is seen on my screen with every startup plus many of the menu selections, such as Templates, are greyed out. Also, whether or not trades are open, the Statistics chart will not reset. With time, sometimes hours, the connection is made and all is well.

Huh - Weird ! Another friend has a few minor glitches also but things do keep running. Maybe in due course Gene might find some little refinement but it is doing the job so - patience.

Gene re: scalping strategies, have you thought about a strat trading from the london/tokyo fix or ny 12am? that would give you a daily unambiguous s/r to trade. Not sure you could call it a scalping strategy mind you because it doesn't offer a lot of opportunities in a day but there is potential for good rr.

Can you post a step by step procedure you would follow and I will take a look at it.

This short video explains the rationale behind the fixes, I use it as more of a discretionary poi but I'm pretty sure you can trade 5/15m rejection candles from it as part of a mechanical strategy perhaps in combination with another indi.
