Indicators development for T101's not very simple method

Gvc,

That won't work. User input "basket" is the NUMBER of pairs to trade, and is used by length in code for that purpose. So if someone wants to change to different pairs, they will want to first go to basket user input and put in how many pairs they want to trade, THEN go to THAT CASE NUMBER and put in the names of the pairs. In short, the number of names in the case need to match the input basket number.

Kind regards,

Don

Hey Gila

Yes, there are approx 3 or 4 pairs that is hedged.

You can take them out by selecting only the pairs that you want in the "Case" files.

In MetaEditor load the Indi and scroll down to the "Case" codes.
Select say "Case 1" and input all the pairs that you want.
Press Compile and restart MT4.

Once you have restarted and placed the T101 Indi on the chart, then Basket = 1 for Case 1 and you will have a compilation of your desired pairs.

The only problem here is that the Hedged pairs serve as a buffer in case the basket...

I am trying to change to 8 currency pairs of which 4 are buys and 4 are sells. They are NOT hedged against each other. In fact they are totally non correlated pairs. Can I add them to t#101 indicator ?.

Hi EST

Go to "Case 8" in the code and replace the existing currencies with your ones. Underneath each other and not 4 Buy & 4 Sell.e.g.

PHP Code
 case 8:
                  Pair[0]  = "GBPUSD"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[1]  = "EURJPY"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[2]  = "AUDUSD"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[3]  = "NZDJPY"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[4]  = "EURUSD"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[5]  = "GBPJPY"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[6]  = "NZDUSD"+Pair_suffix;

                  Pair[7] = "AUDJPY"+Pair_suffix;
                  Pair[8]  = "";
                  Pair[9]  = "";
                  Pair[10]  = "";
                  Pair[11] = "";
                  Pair[12] = "";
                  Pair[13] = "";
EDIT: I am really having a Blue Monday but at least I have closed the first Short basket for week on 150 pips.
My DD must have been at least 200 pips.

Is there a Indi available that logs your max DD and Profit in case you are away from your PC for a few hours.

Kos,

I've got to tell you I love these lagging indicators LOL.

M1 STF and M5 TTF using HASmtf on M1 (hiding HASmtf wicks) is MUCH easier on the eyes than using my indicator. I'm a convert.

I then just use my breakout indicator for SL and MM (well, going to).

Kind regards, and thank you again.

Edit: Here's an indicator TRO made, made to be modified by others to suit their needs (which I appreciate), and I modified to show HAS candle color on every timeframe. If anybody can come up with rules using this, that would keep us out of ranging yet catch big moves every week, it would be much appreciated. I figure it can be done, since I now use HAS to gauge pullback when HASmtf of whatever the above timeframe is, when a lower timeframe doesn't agree with the higher timeframe, and then does, would be the time to get in and get pips. What do you think? That's basically what you do, right?

See how we are right below close of H4 HASmtf, as well as the daily and weekly high (if using MB trading). Although how hour is up, no momentum yet, and top Semafor 3 appears. I would like to sell from top Semafors and buy in uptrend from bottom Semafors (preferably touching the HASmtf), but we are in congestion as we see right now. Still getting comfortable and see that I'm using basically same setup as another person using 15, H1, and H4, just that I'm using M5 instead of M15 for STF. Thanks again Kos! Sorry if I've stepped on your toes at all with my input. Just trying to help. BTW, I notice I can turn off Semafors 1 and 2 (make 5 and 13 be 0 in 3_Level_ZZ_Semafors indicator), and just using 3s I can tell sometimes before HAS color turna to red that I get a lower top 3 than previous top 3, or vice versa for buying. Just something to think about maybe I guess.

Edit: Attachment and above description refers to EURUSD M5. I still need to make T101 version of Kos' latest strategy. Single pair version of Kos' latest strategy is already been attached and is named TheLordsEA_062811_Finished_EAbyDon.

Kind regards,

Don

Do you have it running in a chart? If so rename it to something else first and then make changes to it.

Can anyone point me to a basket trading indicator or EA that will alert when one pair jumps from profit to loss/loss to profit.
Many thanks.

Does any one know if the Henki Ashi indi can have an alert when color changes

Look at the 1HR chart If a person could place buys/sells on the color change Some real nice pips can be made.

I look at my account a few times a day but miss it

an alert would be great

I think you'd have to trade this with a trailing stop or you'd lose as many pips as you'd gain (sort of like an MA). I did a search for a HAS with an alert and found one. I attached it here, but haven't tried it. Let us know if it works.

That would be great! Could you make the alert ring an alarm clock in another room and start the coffeemaker?

I've had a few PM on how I use the MPTM ea

Here it is

Put the MPTM.mq4 in your expert folder
put the 2 set files in the expertpreset folder
put the tradehedgebuyall and tradehedgesellall script files in the expertscripts folder

restart your mt4 (wish they could fix that)

Place the MPTM ea on 2 separate charts.
Load the sell preset to 1 chart and load the buy preset to the other

right now in those script file I have a magic number that corresponds with the MPTM eas setfiles

So it will manage your basket on buy or sell

I have the SL set to 120 and I have TP set to $50 with 75% TS
once the basket hits the TP you are guaranteed 75% of $50 or about $37.50

you can go in and edit any of these settings.


I can even have a buy and sell going at the same time and the MPTM will handle it(don't recommend)

Had a nice couple baskets today sell and buy

Still Trying to read the BTS chart KOS set up but practice, practice, and patience PLUS DON"T OVER TRADE (which I do ) I was up 70% now only 45%

I have made an Indicator whose value and geographical timeframe will cancel each other based on 6 different pairs of JPY namely CadJ, GJ, NJ (Buys) versus UJ, EJ and AJ (Sells). The total price of Buy versus Sells are almost equal (Both Sum and Multiply). This is in modification of the BuySellBasketTotal logics (Credit to those who build this).

Somehow I couldnt make full use of this indicator and I hope those within this thread could advise me more.

for HAS Indy here, its great on STF/TTF but somehow I always late in placing the orders (maybe it refreshes quite often). Having the appropriate Alert function should help and I hope someone can build this. Sitting in front of the screen and trying to catch the momentum will blur my eyes and mind. Worst still, the last few weeks (or months) have these pairs in range trading. Getting in at the right time seems challenging. The original MM through 2ProtectAccount drives me crazy.

Because the market is still ranging.

Found a unconfirmed bearish divergence on the H4 timeframe.

Have to wait till market decides to break the recent LL before going in.
