Thank you for your reply in ASH thread.

By the way, could you add in the next versions of yours bots a parameter "Extern Bool CriminalIs5Digits=True", if =false then divide by 10 the proper parameters ("EmergencyStopLoss" ,etc...), this avoid us to change all the parameters when a new version arise (almost every days!) and forget sometimes 1 parameter.

Thank you.
That is an excellent idea that I shall apply to the other robots as well, when I have time to amend the code.

I am adding the setting to the updates I am doing now.

Hi Scoobs
Pardom me if it sounds like a noobs question. Is there any particular reason for excluding CHF? From the correlation doc you posted a while ago seems like it edges ahead of EUR? Two pairs are way the hell easy to maintain 5..for sure!
Cheers
Kaz
The CHF is more prone to carry trade unwinding and I think the spread is higher then EUR. Also, it tends to be much more volatile to news at medium levels.

Yes.

But you still check for major news affecting any of the 7 pairs in the JPY group.

Dont forget the correlation between GBPJPY and EURJPY needs to be > 0.7 on M15. This is a change from previous posts regarding correlation as we are only dealing with these 2 pairs which are usually in sync anyway.
I am not applying the volume or correlation filters to the Original version.

Does the volumes total need amending now there are only 2 pairs being traded?

Yes, these are the rules to go with.

Well, my opinion is that volumes in MT4 mean fcuk all, so remove it. I only asked for it to be put in to see if it made any significant difference to how the market was reacting, it doesn't. FACT.

Thanks for the clarification. I was confused when it was added in the first use.

I am just doing some topping and tailing.

Now we are only trading 2 pairs, how about moving the default hedge percentage to 10?

Latest versions of the bots in post 1.

 

  1. Both versions will automatically detect and correct for 4 digit criminals - haven't actually put this on a 4 dig account, so sing out if there is anything wrong. There shouldn't be, not even with me coding it.
  2. Both versions automatically default to hedging at 10%, hedging only 1 of the trades.
  3. 24H has one final filter:

    1. other filters being correct, sell allowed when GJ candle high of the previous candle (High[1]) is > the candle before that i.e. two candles ago (High[2]).
    2. Vive-versa for buy

There are now so many filters involved in the 24H version, it is not going to take a lot of baskets, but those it does take should have a great chance and dd should be nothing like as scary as some we have seen during the last couple of weeks developing this.

I just had an idea, guys.

Instead of fully hedging one of the trades at -10%, what about half-hedging both?

Any thoughts?

That is rather good. I shall post a link to it in post 1 so people can find it easily after a few more pages have passed. Cheers.

We should only hedge the biggest loser in a loop starting with a 1/10th the original lot size for that trade.

Unless someone has a better plan ?

Steve

I am starting too lose track now but we should have the following filters:

- SMA
- Higher High and Lower Low
- Correlation
- News
- OB and OS

Are there anymore ?

I found this here http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...=160679&page=6 I see SMJones edited once before. He could probably make it do what is needed here. I'm surfing that other tread for more info. It's very similar to the turn this thread has taken but they are playing usd pairs and no baskets at least since page 6 out of 53 so you know how those things go keep you posted

I am thinking that you should get 4 trade setups per 24H period.
