Did you do more to it than having it cycle every 15mins?
I decided to toss an add6 up that cycled every 15mins, took adds as well as reverse (like my other mods) and also only looked at the six pairs, not all 14.
Have a feeling mine will get into some decent dd as well
Nice I did some research on basket trading and coded some multi currency/pair RSI's which are pretty nice look for T101's indicator thread.
I'm wondering one thing though... if you place a buy/sell basket which cancels out would you ever see positive equity from high volatility without any cut/reverse? Or would the spread and opening at different exact times cancel any possible gains thus the need for finding the weakest link? I guess that's more FPI then and would work better with a triangle setup unless I'm wrong.

Does the EA (all versions) look if there is enough margin level left before opening a next trade?
By example when my margin level is 120% and it would become less than 100% when opening a new one, what does the EA do?
And what happens when the margin comes below the 100% margin level with the trades it has open. MT4 closes all the trades, but after that, what happens then?
EDIT: I may find it out soon enough at one demo. But perhaps someone knows.

NO, my philosophy does not include protecting people from themselves.
If your MaxMarginToUse is too big for your balance, account type and leverage level, such that your margin drops down to the 100% zone, you did that to yourself and I don't try to protect you.
You've got the source code, put in safeguards if you don't trust yourself to use wise settings commensurate with your balance, account type and leverage level.
Regarding your AddSix EAs, have you thought about only accounting for the six pairs chosen?
Ignored
Of course.
I think it makes sense to let each of the six pairs have to distinguish themselves among a larger basket of pairs to prove themselves worthy of trading.
Plus I'm lazy and don't want to trim out all that code. Have at it if you feel it's a good idea.
