Hi all (GKarl, Kos and eisebatti),

Thanks for all your help. I will try this setting and demo it until I get feel for it. This is really a excellent thread. There is a mountain of good info here and ways to trade the basket.

Note: I am still in a short 14 pair basket but it stalled at around -128 pips for me.

Regards

Brendon

Please people i need someone who knows how to code)

I have a basket trader v.2.3 but when i change the pairs to the less trading ones it won't trade. I mean such pairs as GBPNZD, EURNZD, AUDNZD and many more... I also want to have cases that have none, for example i have 6 pairs and i have to put it "case 8", and then there will be 2 extra pairs that are needed to fill up in order to make the EA work.

I will attach the original BT 2.3 on here. I am trying to figure out my own way along with basket trading and so far not been able to proceed because of the problem mentioned above.

Once again in short what i am asking the coders to modify for me

1. To be able to add less known trading pairs, such as GBPNZD, EURNZD, AUDNZD. I will provide the list if needed^^
2. To be able to run EA properly even when in case 5: has only 4 pairs and one empty slot (you will see once you look in the code)

Thank you soooooooo much

BR, Duy

what a tight-rowdy-HAS situation we have here?

confluence of D1, H4 & H1
when eventually they separate, it will be au-revoir D1

Hi Kos,

Sorry for all the questions but your H4 chart looks different to mine. I am using Basketv8 indi to generate my offline chart with the standard 14 pairs and as far as I can gather from the thread, you are using Basketv6. Do you still use this to generate your offline charts? I have searched through your posts and that is all that I could gather except if I missed something which is possible given the amount of posts in the thread.

By generating a different looking offline chart will have a different effect on the calculation of the indis being used and thus the entries that one makes. I am looking into bollenger bands to try and filter those range bound days.

Regards

Brendon

Dont waste your time there is no difference between them.
The difference you see is from that of brokers.

Hi Guys,

Back to trading for me. The last couple of days I was on and offline, and met someone. http://rkthb.co/31705 check this out. Maybe you'll find it interesting, maybe we could help the poor kid

Now, back to making those pips.

P.S. : To those wondering, I already donated via private check. If anyone else wants to jump in, read in at the site and share your opinions with me. He's bright, and he's got a good future.
Please, just slap me around if I'm being silly ...

Hi Brendon

I have tested the EA with Case5 = 5 pairs and then left the last 2 pairs blank....and it works fine.

I have taken Buy and Sell trades with no problem.....

As long as you do not completely delete the last 2 lines.
The same settings must be put into the basketv6/v8 indicator.
And of course you still have to set the "PairsInBasket" = 5, even though you are only using 3 pairs.

Here is an example:
Inserted Code
 case 5:  TradePair[0] = "AUDJPY" + PairSuffix;
               TradePair[1] = "NZDUSD" + PairSuffix;
               TradePair[2] = "EURJPY" + PairSuffix;
               TradePair[3] = "" + PairSuffix;
               TradePair[4] = "" + PairSuffix;
               break;

Ah okay So problem that it didn't trade wasn't because oh "", but rather the less traded pairs :/

Did you try those pairs mentioned? GBPNZD, EURNZD and AUDNZD? i also want to trade EURSEK, USDNOK, USDZAR and so on in my basket. If you would help me out with i would really appreciate it. Because right now i am not able to test my theory and expirement what has been in my mind for weeks

Hi all,

Thanks for all the help. I appreciate it.

Kos: My H4 chart has definite discrepancies from your yours. I assume, as you mentioned, that it is due to different brokers. Sorry if I come over as irritating.

GVC: Thanks for the explanation. I forgot to add "+ Pair_Suffix"

Hi GVC,

I have an issue. I have just changed my Broker from FXclearing to FXCM and have this issue. When the EA opens a trade on for the Kos 14 Pair TLE it only opens 10 pairs instead of 14 pairs. The pairs that are left out will then be listed in white below the market read script. I had thought that I may need to add DD to the surfix so modified this in the SCRIPT and compiled the EA, the missing pairs in the Basket which are aud/jpy, nzd,jpy,euro/jpy and gbp/jpy. I changed the pairs in the EA script to read aud/jpydd, nzd/jpydd and so on but when the EA fired off another trade it is only opening 10 pairs even with the changes I have made. I am now not sure why I am having this problem with the T101 EA and with those same pairs listed. I only started having this problem with FXCM and will want to know what is causing this problem.

Any one have any idea or have had this problem before? my live account is with FXCM but I am currenly on demo mode to sort this before going back live.

In the attachement, you will see the 4 pairs that sit outside the basket in white. They refuse to sit with the basket.

Thanks all and more green pips to us all.

Hi Sharemaster

I cannot think that the suffix is the problem, it is my understanding that all the pairs would have a suffix and not just a few.

The problem is usually the following:

The mt4 server is busy and did not take the trades in white,
The pairs are not listed in your "Market Watch" window
or
Your account does not have enough free margin to place 14 trades at once...

Have a look in your "journal" tab at the bottom of your platform and it should give you the reason
why it could not open those trades.......

everyone said that the price would go down, and end up +500 points

that's why I've always thought is useless to speculate on this method...u only need to be inside the sea and wait to the perfect wave..
