When bot is 'sleeping" is it actually doing something or just killing time for the next basket .... not sure if that is when it is doing the calculation for the buy or sell

Man If I can get this thing to work it will be an atm machine lol
Just made another $20 while I was typing

Nice pair selection, I was wondering when someone would pick up on that

Sleeping does come in useful because after a basket close it resets the base price for each pair you are trading with.

Hi Steve,

I've always wondered what the "U" in "Upl" meant in terms of the CalculateUpl() function.

Just for kicks I changed the RSI period from D1 to H1
If I'm cycling every 30 min to 2 hours I'd rather have the RSI looked at for a 1 hour period
let ya know I started this on one computer and it had $35.00 but a 41% win rate . . . weird
How is this mod going for you?

I still find using the default D1 TF the best in terms of accuracy of trend detection even though we are still cycling that fast, as it is a stronger/longer trend in place in comparison to the H1 trend

Because when I read the code it will place a trade once the price movement agrees with the RSI trend detection.

It is giving time for the new virtual basket to settle down and gain some sense of direction.

Once BWB wakes up again and starts to trade, the markets have moved a bit more, either in the direction of the overall trend or not.

Your work with this bot is fantastic, dryclean. I would deem it a personal favour should you put up a set file once you have reached some definite/ish conclusions.

Cheers

Started this on test last night. No trades opened today. Anyone else had any trades?

I also loaded the T101 edition and that has done 3 basket deals today.
Hi, Bl888,

I have done a bit of experimenting with the D1 RSI trend setting on the FTLR EA. I found that using RSI14 and RSI3 gave better results in back testing at least. Perhaps this could find an application here also.

So, > 55 on the 3 and 14 period D1 RSI for buys, and < 45 on the 3 and 14 period D1 RSI for sell.

It seemed to have the advantage of keeping with the longer and shorter-term trends. I have not looked at Steve's code on this bot in particular, but I suspect it should be easy enough to add this as it was to do so on the FTLR bot.

RSI 3 at 30/70 with period at H1 only got a -50 all night

now trying RSI 13 period H4 $10. profit

being the bot is cycling evry 30 min I feel the period should been less but will start here and work down

maybe i have the wrong pairing but I don't think so

No MPTM functions at all in BWB.
It's a "naked" bot...

Put MPTM on is worth trying.

I have not found this bot successful and have taken it off demo to make space for Vegas.

BWBB is powering ahead.
