i can comfirm also that the EA from charvo closed at +420 pips on my system.

however the other 1 i have running since sunday seems stuck. it shows the alerts for buy or sell, but no entery at all hmmm. maybe because i run that one on different language then english?
hi all

I confirm too, SELL went +2000 pips since Monday afternoon and still on now. I may close the basket at the close of today.

Now down to +1315 pips. Just enabled the locker

Charvo, my demo last opened at 23:50 GMT yesterday and closed at 4:00 GMT today. Don's opened at 14:59 today and closed at 15:45, losing a bundle.
It appears the EAs are not behaving well on my demos.

hazelj80 is right, we need to be working on offline charts by finimej. If zz's charts gave option for user to choose IBFX pairs and also options to reverse certain pairs, I might recommend his. At this point though, since the EA is set up like it is, finimej's offline charts show the actual chart of the pairs the user is trading. Don't get me wrong, zz's pairs and finimej's pairs can both be incorporated into the EA to give users choice. But offline charts are the only way to see what is happening with the baskets using pairs the user is trading...
well the charts do work. but I could not get zz's chart to work like finimej charts do. not sure why. but all i did to get her charts to work was this:

I just put the expert in the experts folder and the mqh file in the includes folder then I open the platform but i DO NOt attach the EA quite yet.

i then hit F2 on the platform. then i click on each symbol one-by-one and highlight every time frame on them. original pairs and universal pairs. so that's 16 pairs to go through total. takes about 10 minutes to do but not hard at all.

then i attached the EA to the chart like the instructions say to do and the beginning of the candle. then they work fine. if you attach while it's in the middle of a candle on the TF you want to look at, the candle comes out half printed and looks wrong. but other than that, charts are working good for me.

but you guys should start developing systems that work on these charts.

don, I still could not get the EA to trade off of the charts yet. i don't' think they were meant to yet. but maybe finimej can tell us.

read the tab of "expert advisor" at the bottom of MT4 to find out why.

too many reasons for failure......

I have been thinking about combining MTF TRIX and using the PL EA to get out of trades.

that might be a good EA

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=183801

the picture is from finimej's off line charts with eur/gbp usd/cad and usd/chf inverted but not using cad pairs. that's all in the off line charts EA options list. for the TRIX to read correctly, you also have to have the M15 M30 and H1 open as well as the M5 14P

only thing is you'd be scalping 100-300 pips at a time. could work out though

yeah, hazelj, i have similar idea right now thanks to trade4fun, take a look, the 3 vertical red lines indicate potential entries.

i checked your link, the original thread seems long on 3 green, and short on 3 red, is that right? if so, i didn't see that in your image......

how do you enter then?

found it's not open source, ......

yes that is correct. i did not mark them on the picture because we may have to slightly tweak it if we did use it.

the original MTF trix said to enter on the break above the signal candle where all 3 TRIX blocks have the same color on candle close.

we would not wait for the break. we'd just enter on the candle open. sometimes waiting for the break is too late in this type of trading (basket trading I mean)

so that's like the heatmap from leverage FX? that's exactly what it looks like for MT4

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...47#post3797447
if you are interested.

but this idea (yours) will definitely take some time, although the rules sound very neat.

================================================================

by the way, anyone has a good/working/updating/real-time offline chart by either ZZ or finimej? I heard ZZ mentioned that we could just drag the EA to the offline charts, so that indicators are using offline bars instead of GJ bars. That'll be more accurate.

anyone has it? if so, i can edit the EA so that you may try it on offline charts. i cannot make the offline chart on my end.......

hers the new version of off line charts. They have been fixed to make EA's work on them.

PHP Code
http://www.petrafx.com/ftp/t101/T101offlinechart0624.zip
follow my instructions from the previous post
http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...postcount=2607

EDIT: the EA wold have to be designed with a stop and reverse when there is an opposite signal if trades are still open. so easy. wait for TRIX to close all 3 green on M5 14P or all red, then buy or sell on next open candle after signal.

another important thing is when you look for the first initial trade with this template, though, you'd might want to wait for not just a line up of TRIX but also, a matching arrow so you are in line with the market itself

This offline chart version same as previous posted version named "T101_offlinechart_v2"?
Just to make sure we are using the right version.
By the way, nice work for finimej.

Hi

I dont know how I have wronged anyone here, that I am been called names. I know someone lurking is appreciating my posts.

I dont know which of the rules I have changed. Simple thing is Simple until you start introducing complexities. This system at its basic form would still fetch you money.

Anyone from the scalping background? then you need re-orientation before you can make any meaningful thing out of BTS. Its not rush in rush out thing. Its designed to catch the major decisive synchronised market move, and this does not happen every now and then, but when it happens, its always big.

whatever goes up comes down or vise versa, FX is not exceptional, whenever I finish with a SHORT I wait for a LONG except if re-entry happens

And I know that between major DOWN move and an UP move there is always a period of indecision when mkt simply goes nowhere, a period for it to decide whether to go further or return. that is when huge PATIENCE is needed, otherwise all you took in the move will be given back during this ranging period, this is elusive to an EA, Toys dont not know this, they are zombie.

If we can not automate this system why not lets do it manually. After all I only look for 1-2 at most 3 trades per week and this I do at the opening of 2 major sessions.

@Charvo

I am using your EA version E and its behaved well this week. I disabled locking anyway.

look at the orange lines. divergence between MACD and Price.

I would rather hold my SELL brakes here and see if its going to break TM up that means waiting for a LONG or bounce off it, an a SHORT. I have been posting these things from the moment I started contributing in this thread. And I have not stopped doing so. If anyone can put this in the EA why not do it. I remember I said I LIKE SEEING DIVERGENCE BEHIND MY TRADES, THAT IT BOOSTS MY CONFIDENCE IN THAT DIRECTION I TAKE.

Hi,Kos, nevermind angry minds. i don't see one cent in anger.

but you exit 1st basket manually, right? and you somehow re-loaded the EA?

for me, i left the EA automatic all the way, and i didn't see your 2nd re-enter entry at my end.

Hi

I dont know how I have wronged anyone here, that I am been called names. I know someone lurking is appreciating my posts.

hey kos..... kinda doubt you have wronged anyone...... and i for one appreciate your input, though i'm not running any of the ea's posted...... and will not be.....

i've gone thru your every post several times and pulled out whats needed....

lately you have started including the entire chart, with indicator names.... that really helps.... originally you just posted snippets of the charts.... we need the entire chart to derive all....

you have also been posting your trades, that helps.... some trades still were out of place which is very confusing and appear to not be made by the ea....

today you posted the trades with comments .... now it even more appears the gbpchf trade , post 2618 above, was not made at the original signal by the ea....

the second picture in post 2618 shows all trades with comment and an exact second of placement..... that's perfect.... that is what we needed....


//------

divergence is a simple matter to code..... what makes coding an ea difficult, and i'm not complaining, is small pieces of information scattered across months of posts with occassional confusing information, gbpchf trade, mixed in.....

please believe, it did not bother me one bit going thru your posts and patiently waiting for the rest that was needed.....

today we got it...... thanks again for your input......h
to trade and code, keep both simple... no call to impress....h

Kos i will never ever be angry to you. i do sometimes wish you gave us more info faster

without your help and with the work of Don and charvo and others. i would never been able to test my own little strategy which made me over +3400 pips so far this week. however without your entry point, mine strategy would be useless.

you sir Are a master trader and i take my hat of to you and wish you a very good weekend.

on a sidenote.

Charvo your version has not done any buy or sell today at all. there was a time when all 3 signals were on. but never a trade was made. did you had any trades at all today?

  • Jun 25, 2010 11:12am Jun 25, 2010 11:12am
That's correct, today is a bad to trade if we look back.

My edition considers "a little" momentum, if market is lazy like this Friday, the EA won't enter.

The display part is untouched and from Don's version, so sometimes it displayed all conditions met but the EA still not trading due to two things:
1. one BI cross one entry logic
2. momentum is too little

i'm lazy to update those display things now, they are not key issues now.

Congs to your 3400 pips! Bring it on.
