Trade triggered at 8:47 GMT, local time 17:47 (Melbourne, Aust.).

Reached Basket TP but failed to close orders (I suspect due to ECN broker as had some error messages re invalid TP and Stop levels). Closed them manually.

Very, very impressed. Well done to all those involved.

Good news is that the buy basket here triggered off my h4 chart, on which I have the multiplier set to 1000.
Bad news (for steve) is that only the h4 took the trade, the m5, m15 and h1 ea instances did not.
But it's good to know the basket was able to hit that 1000 multiplier mark

But my H1 JPY strength index has not reached 90 yet. Still at 64.What about yours? I thought it should wait till above 90 then the buy trades will open?
I'm sure it was 70/30 for the H1. My IBFX demo1 bounced back down from 66.193
But I can't tell if it was any higher while the 0600GMT H1 bar was being drawn.
No buy taken by the ea, so looks like it may have missed this time on IBFX.

Must have been your demo server was a little different. the H1 St index just touched the 70 and and then retreated. It was enough for my live IBFX to take the buy basket and closed with full profit

Strange..my demo also is run on IBFX. Today this EA made 2 trades, Sell basket in the morning (this one by force Sell) and before Tokyo close the Ea is open another buy basket. Just now, the basket trade was closed and hit the TP with 2% gain.

I attached the screenshot to prove it..

I believe your time is the same with mine, therefore you should set the time 5 (for sell basket) and 13(for buy basket).

Great start to the week,

Two brokers - one smoothed/filtered data feed, and the other spikey.
Buy Hour hour started 06h00 GMT, monitoring started 06h30 GMT
5 pairs, in at 06h46 GMT and out 07h05 GMT (19mins !)
Smoothy broker = 103 pips
Spikey broker = 69 pips

Demoing for full week.

Gold stars (the real ones) to Scooby, Steve, KG and Smjones.

Does anyone know of the "Sell" time format for those of us on the witching hour.

is it 24:00 or 00:00 ? cos no trades last night, also last week.

thanks

smj thanks for the IBFX live info. Thats real good to know, cause thats where my live acct sits also.

Hey sahars, any chance of a screen shot of your H1 GBPJPY. My M15 looks similar to yours at 1st glance. Will have a closer study. I caught the sell earlier.

Oh dont know, but just spotted yours is GBPJPYm for mini. My account was meant to be mini this time I set it up, but the screens all showed the "waiting for update", so opened new ones from the Market Watch area and they came up just GBPJPY. Still act like mini account on trades.
I think I selected IBFX's server 1 if it makes any difference.

smj, I assume your live account would be standard, my live is mini.

Read back a few pages please, this error is due to ecn code not working properly. It has no affect on whether the ea opens the basket or not, nor does it affect it closing at your TP level. It's only not setting the emergency SL and TP levels.
Steve is going to fix it tomorrow I believe.
The tpmultiplier and your base lot setting in the inputs determines your basket tp closure, error 130 will not affect this.

BOT Bank of Taiwan account for more than 1/3 of all FX turnover Monday. I posted earlier that BOT had been intervening several times. I suppose they were the deep pockets earlier.

EDIT, I just realized someone asked earlier if BOT stood for Bank of Thailand. I said yes, but I meant Taiwan. Sorry about that.

No problem,
How'd you get 4 baskets? I have mine running on 4 timeframes and should be getting 4 baskets myself, but something is preventing all 4 timeframes from taking the trades, so I only get 1 that goes through.

That one came from DJ thru both Oanda and IBFX Live
The articles from earlier are there in the list but this last report was a one liner. Probably the article will come in a few minutes as well. Look at the News tab of the Termal on IBFX were you would normally look at your trades. Or select Oanda FXNews
