Also, Sell basket has been opened. HAS has turned red on the 1hr chart. Entry made off the 15 minute chart pullback. See how it goes.

Recipe for disaster

Dear basket traders,
I like to give us a quick reminder of how good systems in the past have failed.
a) addition of several indicators
b) automation
c) greed

To avoid failure with this method, below is my 2cents advice
a) Keep it simple. I honestly believe that HAS is enough. Most of the indicators are simply moving averages with different methods of reading prices. I even removed VQzz since HAS H1 is good enough to confirm trend change and occasionally use Blau ergodic when i'm not too sure.
b) Avoid EAs....
I agree and disagree

a) HAS is a conglomeration of many (4) moving averages constructed by some strange means of the previous two bars price logic, why not just a simple moving average cross? That is even simpler than the HAS.
b) If your rules are simple, doesn't automation make the most sense? You can't possibly be at your terminal day-in and day-out, and if your system doesn't have a mathematical probability to generate a lot of false signals then you have nothing to worry about You can also put trade management into your EA no problem. Semi-Automation is trading with emotions.. for me. I second guess the decisions too much and a fully automatic system takes ME out of the equation.
c) I avoid overtrading BY using an automated system. Of course, I rolled my own automated system.. based off of my own statistical analysis and research, and with my own money management methods... so I guess that makes me comfortable with it.

So thank you for your two cents, but I think we all need to realize that in order to make a system that is profitable for someone else (kos, etc) also be profitable for us, we need to make it our own in some way. Small tweaks are good! It makes a system your own.

Hi all!

I congratulate every one that took the 10-day Long basket that
just ended. I came out of it with about 2400+ pips.

I heard the closing alert from bed exactly 1.00 am gmt+1 and it immediately
followed with the sell opening alert too, so I just took the screen shot
and went back to bed. woke up this morning and its 280+ pips on.

I also want to congratulate those who made the sell entry because it BE already
we can not loose this basket again, the worst scenario is 0.00

Hi every one,

"Close All script" doesn't work for me when I choose option 5 to close in profit pairs. Or it only closes one of the hedge pairs.


Thanks in advance

dont do any work, your effort is done, it has been done a thousand fold. the fifteen, hour sync is leet. those that dont see that is their issue. you have given the "roots of gold". i dont think you see 100% but you will, any others work it out. work it out over and over in the worst of time periods, when you make small money there you have it down. dont sway kos, you have provided the best. gems like this dont come but once every few years.

I have to say that my interest on EA is only becouse I have a family and another job. I see and understand that manual is always the way to go. I like this threat and I don't want anybody in stealth mode. Kos posts are always great for me. I apologize if I have asked too much for the EA config. Just understand everybody personal situation.

Make sure the "allow dll imports" box is checked under the common tab in the basketv6 indicator. If not, check it, then close the platform completely (not the chart window) and re-open it. It should work fine.
Thanks for the reply.
Yes the "allow dll imports" box was already checked on GVC's EA (basketv6 not needed I think if using the EA).

The offline chart only updates if I click on another chart and then come back or use the refresh button.

I don't know why it just took a buy here either.

Quick question, how are you setting the basket to BE? Manually or with a trade manager?

Edit: Oh sorry, and what is the BE number you use? 300 pips (5digit)?

Hi everyone,

My first post here not because I am a newbie but b'cos this is the first thread which I believe can excite/ignite/encourage all traders ..newbies and seasoned....kudos to Kos and all the others who have made invaluable contributions here!

Couple of quick questions...could someone please point out to me how the various options function on the buy all/sell all script? Also, there have been one or two others who have enquired about whether it is possible to put an EA on the kos offline charts..can anyone please direct me on whether this can be done and if possible, the specific post where a solution for this was given?

Many thanks and happy pipping to all of you.

Intresting EA will give it a go.

Are people running this on H1 or m15?

Is the Tp in pips or dollars?

Cheers

Running on H1 Here default settings with core 5 loaded. I see what the default tp sl trails do. I loaded and missed the sell has change on h1. So used a script to enter a short with the same magic number of the ea to see if the ea will maange the trade.

I see what happens and report back.

NOTE Demo of course
