Hello to everybody...

I just open 3 demo accounts and on every account put one EA Basket system. Every system is 15 min TF.

EA HAS -> settings 2-9-2-12

EA CLOUD -> default cloud

EA IXOAH -> settings 800

Question is about settings for MarketRead, TLEMode, BasketType. Default is 0. What are the correct settings? I set to 1.

And someone can put here correct settings for T101 BasketTrader. Just in case that something is wrong.

All demo accounts have 50k, so entery is 0,5 lots.

All accounts are on MyFxBook and link is here so we can monitor the system. If is neccessary to change any settings and try something new, just let me know and I will change that.

At this moment, only EA Cloud has open positions.

P.S. Sorry for my english if there is mistakes ;-)

{quote} Thanx GVC ! Could i open 3 offline charts and place them 3 different T101 basket traders ? First with TLE HAS, second with TLE ICHI and third TLE IXOAH ? I tried it, but only ICHI opened trades.... Will this control stop loss for each of them and close right trades after oposite signal ? I would like to test them at once :-D

I don't believe the EA uses trade comments, so won't manage groups of trades based on different charts.

best option is to install a few more versions of MT4 and open up demo accounts - you can then run what ever you like.

on a side note - if the EA did use trade comments (ie 60 for 1h charts, 240 for 4h charts etc) you could trade multiple tf's and effectively hedge positions.

That's turned out to be true. The basket is no where to go for such a long time on this Friday afternoon. Used these hours reading a lot on HAS indicator that I am using.

Have a good weekend

If this move resumes then we could be set for a risk-on move the upcoming week
The 2 baskets are in sync (something I've kept a close eye on after optimus mentioned it)

Hi Roje

As AhmadYT mentioned just change the Magic Numbers of the EA on each chart.

@Danci, Check your BoxSize settings in the TLE_IXOAH....Set it the same as I_XO_A_H Indicator.
I find 550 is best settings for M15.

OPTIMIZING XO SETTINGS

Since following the thread for the last week or so, I have been impressed by the XO indicator and how it works particular well on longer time frames.

Many thanks to whoever introduced it to the group.

So I ask myself how can I find the best settings for this indicator?
This is my gift to the group for sharing all this info freely - still not sure why we are in commercial group.....

Two files need to be in indicators folder.

The settings are self explanatory if you drop it on the chart, two values need calibrating depending on your chart
firstly pipsfactor depending on whats your broker digits etc and then spread. After adjusting pipsfactor, the spread is the total spreadcost for all you pairs you trade, this is used to calculate overall profitability of the XO settings.
Other settings are fairly self explanatory.
By adjusting candle optimize it may be possible to find a good settings for different markets eg if the last 300 candles has been ranging for example.

Hi Manuel!

take 1v for your code generousity,

but some of the settings will need explanations, don't assume everyone here is savvy and
please don't just drop it and disappear, stay around to answer questions related to it.

as for why the thread is hidden in the commercial section?
I think what we do here does not go down well with some people, who had an issue with some other people
and so they needed to hide it away from where not many people can find it easily.
it does not even show again in FF home page unlike before when it was one of the hottest threads.

also the report of pips in thousand is not good for a broker-sponsored site like FF.
Imagine fx-optimus made +2700 pips this week assuming he is trading a very good account,
its like ripping the broker off and if he happens to end the month like that, 10,000 pips in a month!


and imagine 10 or 20 basketters trading that way and we happen to use same broker, for their business
that is not good.

its even better now, before now this thread would have ended up in the recycle bin or deleted for just some
very flimsy reason.

As expected the basket simply refused to move in any direction leaving the pivot despite some news releases from EU. The basket responds to changes in JPY and USD. All other currencies have less impact. May be later today there might be some movement in the US session. It has been a good week with +2700 points. At last I could able to go along with the price action. Great trading days ahead with the Basket Trading System. Many thanks to Kos and all others who have contributed here. Good Luck to all.

the market is paying

the week has been very good, especially for those doing M5 & M15

But for XO H4 it started great but the period in the black boxes spoilt
the show. The account simply did not go anywhere this week. went up and back down

but I am happy it did not end in RED

Thanks for the vouch!.

As kos has highlighted with the black boxes, consecutive red and green XO is killing some of the profit.

The pattern is pipe up pipe down bar formations where the open and close are near opposite for consecutive bars, perhaps a filter needs applying eg, avoiding inside bar entries or avoiding bars that are inside the last two bars etc...
