for sure I must be missing something obvious.

The manual stuff is working fine from the beginning, TP, SL, market/limit orders, everything, except the TL engine.

Does your MT4 not perhaps have a suffix ? EURUSDm
Does your Broker accept 0.01 Lots?

PM me your email address and lets see what we can do.

Here it is setup on the H1 for 14 pairs... No trade taken by EA yet.
I set GBPCHF and USDCHF to trade opposite.
I have a question Gvc - if you set GBPCHF and USDCHF to trade opposite, how do you generate an offline chart showing those pairs reversed? All the offline chart generators seem to only create a chart with pairs in the same direction.

The pairs in the offline chart are not based on Buy or Sell, but as the combined Sum of those pairs.

So the candles you see are actually the combined performance of those pairs, whether some are up and others down.

Hinnavaru,

Dave is right, the settings are in the indicator.

Here is a version with adjustable settings.
Load it on your chart and change the settings to suite.

I am not sure if it is going to work this way, but try it out on M1 / M5 and let us know.
GVC

Changing the indicator settings has worked. The EA has placed orders based on the new settings. It has stopped and reversed as well.

Correct, but your offline chart is equal to (for example C5) 1 lot of GBPJPY + 1 lot of EURJPY + 1 lot of AUDJPY + 1 lot of GBPUSD + 1 lot of NZDUSD. If the chart is rising, but you buy 1 lot of GBPJPY + 1 lot of EURJPY + 1 lot of AUDJPY + 1 lot of GBPUSD + sell 1 lot of NZDUSD (the reverse), your performance won't match what youre seeing on the chart. Potentially it could look like you are making money but because of the reverse you are flat or losing money. The composition of the chart wont reflect what youre trading.

To verify this, use Paradox's indicator which allows you to reverse pairs with a "-1". You'll see the chart looks different with pairs reversed.

Hi GVC,

Thank you for uploading this EA in its present form. I did play around with the original version whils't following the other thread when it was active. I must admit I did not manage to remain in 'the positive' when using it then. May I ask have you been using it in its current state ie, as per Kos rules? If so the inevitable question has it been profitable over a period of time?

Thanks again for your generosity.

Ah,

I see what you are saying, but i do not reverse my pairs.

I just posted the picture to give an example on how to reverse the pairs in the EA.
(The previous pictures posted were all on a C5 offline chart anyway, they were purely for illustration purposes)

Hi Wingate, long time...

The main reason i posted the TLE (which i put together 2 days ago) was cos there were a few guys asking for an auto EA.

I have been using the EA successfully in Manual mode for about a year now.

Every now and again i make a TLE and test it in auto. None successful till now.

I have made short term profitable TLE's but nothing for the duration.

However i have been trading Kos' method since DryClean made me aware of it (this thread) and i can say that it definitely works.

I reckon that with some tweaking we could have a profitable Basket ea.

Regards
George

I made a new TLE HAS KOS qand called it TLE HAS KOS 5MIN and set the HAS to 2,6,2,4 for 5 min chart
Had to also adjust TP and SL opening and closing but the TP was too high so it would close the buy at loss then open sell then close at loss then open a buy. Might be too low a TF but still playing with it

for a 1 HR TF would would say the HAS should be set to 2,3,2,4 as per Kos
will play with it

i think HAS for 1HR TF is 2,15,2,15

if u use 2,3,2,4 HAS on 1HR TF , it will be same as u r playing with 15M TF chart
