Is the EA coded to wait for the close of the Bar?
I don't know, I did not write it. Seems like that is not the case though.

Hi all

Posting the basket trade just closed out.

I adjusted the Sellhourstarts time to 16:00 when my local time was 17:30 to see if I could "force" a trade.

Initially I got invalid stoploss value errors when the orders were being sent but this was because I hadn't set the ECN value to "true". The Orders sent were for Buys and I'm not sure if this is correct.

All Orders closed when upper TP reached of 12. If someone would like to view the trade statement please let me know how to attach it. It saved as an HTML file and wont upload.

Thanks to everyones efforts so far.

Steve

Just manually closed my basket at break even since I got in too early and had a max drawdown of 150$.

Interesting...Beginning with V1.3 robot was adapted to use GS_GROUP_JPY Strength Index indicator, which eliminates Cad from equation. Yet, acording to input panel the robot is using RS_GROUP_JPY V1.2. Can anyone explain this?

Jim, are you using the latest basket EA?

In the input section of your EA does it say the RS_GROUP_JPY Strength Index indicator is being used?

No. but I think that is just a typo.
One way to be sure would be to delete it and only keep the index indicator.

FxShadow - was still using V1.4 - so multipliaction still at *120. Didn't want to mess with larger target of *200 in V1.5 so happy to stay at *120.
Worked well - but would have delivered now at *200.
Better I recon small target with higher success and up the lots later.

I am actually working on allowing you to run this methodology 24/5. This does go against one of the main rules about BOJ intervention but it maybe possible. I obviously need todo allot more research before revealing how.

Attached is a current statement using the same lot size for all trades. This currently means the baskets do remain open for longer.

I set my basket TP to just (Lot size X 200)

Will report back my findings soon.

Also, my opinion is that retail trader's should not be placing any new trades past 11.00am GMT on a Friday.

Why ?

Because apart from big US economic news on some Friday's allot of hedge funds and other financial institutions will consolidate/liquidate some or all of there positions without warning prior to New York open.

Besides, YOU should be just withdrawing your profits and then spending the weekends in the casino and/or picking up chicks.
