Hmmm...using these settings below, my C14 H1 BUY basket got stopped out @ EXACTLY 2353 points (I guess that would translate to 235 pips right?).

Meanwhile what I wanted was for BE to be set at 250 pips!

I wonder, I just wonder...


extern string xs_0006 = "--Trailing & BE+Lock";
extern bool UseTrailing = true;
extern bool TrailFixed = false;
extern double FixedTrailValue = 0;
extern bool TrailPercent = false;
extern double TrailPrcntage = 0;
extern string xs_0006a = "--Trailing/BE+Lock Defaults";
extern double DftTrailingAtValue = 25;
extern double DftBreakevenAtValue = 25;
extern double DftLockValue = 5;

Is there any specific broker that we should use for this strategy? Could you guys share which broker should be used for this strategy? thanks very much
Hi there,


Any Broker would do. Make sure all the pairs mentioned are provided by your Broker.

Apart from that, any broker will do.

All the best.

I find that my FXPro chart is vastly different from my live IBFX chart. I suppose it's not a crazy big difference, but I like the H4 bars quite a bit better on FXPro.

I have some questions Kos: To quote you... {quote}
Question
#1: Please based on the above "progression", WHAT would you consider is an appropriate BE for the D1 C14 timeframe? Question
#2: HOW do I set the options
#3: What does this mean if I set it at say 5?) Hope these questions aren't too noob o - abeg. Sometimes it can be confusing. Thank you, Ty
I can only answer Q1

I used one of the tools available on this thread with HAS
don't let your SL on daily TF be less than 1000 pips, and the starting balance should not be less than 2,500 USD for 0.01 lot size

other questions are not in my domain, cos I write my own EAs and that is what I use

{quote} I manage to catch +861pips on this long. Entry just after market reopen last week. It had been a long time since my last login and realised this thread. 2013 had been "ok" year for T101 basket. 2H of 2013 is not that particular good. It is the first red after 3 years. Anyway, it is still a positive overall while not better than 2012 and 2011. 14 pairs had changed due to EURCHF but I still manage to find replacement pairs. Let's hope for a better 2014.
tallman how are you, long time!

I think H4 is the perfect tf. The best part is the low stress from not needing to be glued to my charts. Just check every 4 hours and assess. It's Awesome sauce!
