thanks.

current basket in a world of pain and hurtling toward SL. This is with v2.3. 2.5 on demo has it filtered due to news.
Just got stopped out on this one.

this morning's basket is basically shafted by the unwinding AUD. Although thius strategy has sound principles and we are all very grateful to learn it, I still have substantial doubts as to whether it can suffer a couple of SLs on the trot. It's fine for professional traders with low-zero spreads and high balances, but for the average retail trader the risk/reward and margin/spreads involved make it far from "stress-free trading".

interested to know what you guys wins or loss with these high spread pairs vs the majors one's with lower spread.

Can you post your results for last week trading with 2.3 or 2.5 ?

Since Nov 10th I had 7 basket trades with always the latest version from post #1... all reached TP... some sooner, some later, all on FXDD live accout!
Looks like 100% to me
See how long this will last!

thanks guys,

i'm looking inside the basket results: high spread vs lower spread.

Other way to say: do we take such risk with 10 or + spread.

Are there no MT4 brokers availiable to retail traders with zero spreads but deduct commission or a transaction fee ?

News Filter working well,
If only it was switched on this morning on the account that mattered.

You shouldnt be trading this with any pairs or brokers where the spread is > 10 (4 digit) or > 100 (5 digit).

Hi, just started testing both v2.5 and H24 v1.1 and so far so good. I'm wondering if it would make sense to add a buffer between the oversold or overbought flag being set and the trades kicking in, say 10. I have seen occassions where the selling started because temporarily the RSI briefly went above 10 only to then move further away and hitting SL. So if we would wait until the white line hits say 20 we could probably avoid these temporary signals. Not sure if this has been covered before and if anyone has any views on this.

Thanks to Steve / Scoobs and others for all the efforts put in !

Fredella.

Guys guys guys! First the time related questions were getting tiresome, now the time related jokes are getting tired.
Thanks to all involved in the EA development especially Scoobs and Steve. I am demoing it in the backrground, quietly following the thread.

Just loaded V2.5 on my live account for the first time. It asked me to change magic # from 12345. So I changed it. I now have a 'The robot has been suspended. Reason: You need to change the MagicNumber input'.
I changed it a few times...not sure what to do...
Never had this issue on demo accnt.
