please help me. thank all so much
Its hard work enough to read 108 pages and the thing still refuses to work,
I understand the frustration but what I would say is just read page 1-5
slowly and you will find the solution to your question there.
or if there is anyone that can point chuongio to the post that would help him please do. I know that problem has been solved many times on this thread

CREATE OFFLINE CHART

open any chart for the TF you want to create
drag the basket v6 indicator onto that chart
enter the TF e.g 15 in the TF input point
click ok

come to the main menu of mt4
click on file-> open offline
you will find #kos#14 15 as one of the pairs
double click on it and it will open as one of
your charts

NOTE: if your history is not correct the chart
may look jumbled, close mt4 and reopen, it
should look correct if still not then you will
need an indicator that forces history download
to update your history.

NOTE: Also you must ensure that the 14 pairs
are all in your marketwatch window or just right
click on the market watch window and click SHOW ALL.
Then later you can decide to HIDE ALL.

Apply the template on that new 15min offline chart
Thats all.

For the VQ 1hr to work on your 15min chart you have
to make sure the 60 min offline chart is open too
that means you repeat the step above for a 60min
offline chart. else the VQ will not show up on 15min chart

Hello Casey. Are you able to model as well as get MATLAB to execute trades within MT4? If you are, it means youre able to code EAs as MATLAB scripts? If you are, how? It means I might be able to bypass coding in MQL afterall..


Ps. it seems your pips in profit distribution seems to have the greatest frequency of trades below zero; or is this just a graphical scaling issue?

I am in a 12+2 buy basket from Monday morning, currently up +763 pips.


I have made some substantial changes and rolled my own indicator+ma, but it does not use the same strategy or indicators as Kosmolate. It uses a moving average crossover, and built a model in matlab and made scripts to generate the time series of the basket. I also changed the way the basket sum is calculated. I won't clog Kosmolate's thread with details or files - but this strategy is profitable with a lot of different methods, I just chose to go a route that was less computationally...

hi caseyjw!

this is interesting,
the first picture I can relate with,
but the second one can you interpret it more?

thanks casey

kos
Sure.

I should have been more clear in the first place, sorry about that! Basically the 'X' axis is profits, the bar at 0 would be a break even trade and bars to the right of zero are wins. If you look at the value on the X axis, 0.0001 represents 1 pip. so 0.1 is 1000 pips, 0.4 is 4000 pips.

If the profit amount on the X axis corresponds to a frequency of 1 on the Y axis, that means we got that profit amount, once. So, the higher the bar the more times we hit that profit amount.

As you can see, we have higher bars in the negative are on the profit side. This is ok, because the bars on the negative profit side are very close to zero, while we have some trades netting us more than 2000 pips.

a "fat tail" on the profit side, is good - lower frequency but much higher gains than losses.

If you count, ~93 losses and ~87 wins. That's about the odds we would expect from a coin toss, but look at the magnitude of wins vs losses, most of the wins are way above the highest loss.... that's a profitable system

is it necessary to fire sell or buy on all the 14 currency in one go ? as we know uchf gchf will move in the opposite direction. can anyone tell which currency pairs has given the best result in the basket, we can include them and get the cream .

also when i run the script TradeHedgeBUY ALL , it is saying opened zero trade, cannot figure it out , seems to be old problem , any quick fix ,

any particular trading time , or we just see the vq indicator color and fire the trade when it changes color ??

Hi Everyone,

This thread is kicking on nicely and I like the positive vibe here.Keep it going.
Just one question:

When I load the Basketting V5 ea and the 2Protectaccount ea into MT4 they are grey incolour under the experts tab.This shows me that even though I get a smiley face on the chart that the ea is not running and is not taking any trades.
Can someone please lend a hand.

Thanks in advance.


Regards

BUY when HAS turns blue and SELL when HAS turns Red. You exit and take profit or loss when HAS changes color and enter a new basket in the opposite direction. Trade the 15M offline chart using the "15min_1hr_vq_offline.tpl" template from the mt4 zip file. Stoploss is 560 pips.

Many variations are currently being tried, but that is the system kos presented on the first page and has followed for some time. There is a lot of additional, important information in the (now) 111 pages of this thread and I strongly recommend that you read it and acquire a thorough understanding of this method, because many of the participants of this thread will not respond to these types of basic questions with the patience I've shown here.

Good luck.

@pinhead, I am catching up fast , i figured out my problems and also the concept, now just let me know about core 5 , which indicator u use for generating the offline core 5 chart ?? or do we base the core 5 trade based on the 14 pairs offline chart of kos ?

i tried the core 5 buy and sell all working fine.

how sl is put do we put the 40 pips per pair manually or do we keep a basket sl of 40 pips x no of pairs , if so then how the sl will get triggered in case of a basket sl ??

many thanks

Here's the Core5 indicator for generating the offline charts. Go to post #1613 on page 108 for the Core5 Buy/Sell Basket scripts provided by Dryclean. I recommend the MPBM basket manager EA below, which allows you to input either per basket or total pips for TP, SL and TS. If you look at the code in MetaEditor, you'll find excellent instructions.
