Once you restart platform trade kinda resets. Entry still there but TP/SL adjust to live price. Try not to restart. Get a VPS or keep computer running!

Hi, first i wanna say big thanks to Seller9 for this nice EA. Giving it a go now.

I hope that i got this right, that i can have more Baskets running @ once, as long as the magic number is not the same, because by ending a Trade manual, it would end all with the same magic number ?

@ fx.jurij, @ eagle85
Could someone of you guys please tell a noob like me why you are starting the trade manual, and how you know when it is time to get in, or are you looking every now and then, and when the entry point is given, you enter ?
Why do you guys have only one IXO ? Just to confirm the cross ?

Please help

Thanks

I have only one IXO calibrated to historic data just to get idea which way shall I place basket on market. I am doing that with clear purpose to see if offline charts behave accord to balance. I tried basketing but always had problems with charts (havent work in line with basket balance). This one "BasketCreate-V1" is solid in terms of price/balance sync but other shortcomings unfortunately (1st shortcoming stressed from post 1529).

I have no basket system jet because current technology available to retail trader (indicators, EAs) is not in shape for basket optimization (still VERY LONG way to go) and make basketing riskier Vs normal trading. Seller9 has improved techniques dramatically and given us something to contemplate. However.......can someone adjust the code as stated in post 1549. Many thanks to Seller9 and all participants!!

For me, manual trading is an exciting and challenging daily adventure.
Seller9 has generously provided each of us with a sturdy sailing ship.
I would rather have the enjoyment and satisfaction of piloting mine through rough water than being just a passenger.
At its most basic level, my current basket trading strategy requires a color change for both an HAS candle and a single instance of the I-XO-A-H indicator for confirmation. Testing has so far left me unconvinced that more are needed. Upcoming major financial news announcements from the Forex Factory calendar, time of day and price action nuances must also be considered. Recognizing the latter comes only after many hours of practice, careful observation and a strong desire to succeed.
In my experience, the tools provided by Seller9 for basket trading are all you need. As with any good tool, one's measure of success or failure depends upon the skills with which they are applied.

I wanted to post this and see if anyone is having the same issue...I had a 15 min tf chart for the C14. I did notice the chart was moving and have 4 sell HAS bars. However, i shut down the MT4 platform and rebooted it. It came up with a different set of buy HA's going the other direction where the sells were at when i booted the MT4 down. So, I booted the MT4 back down and rebooted it up again. The same original 4 HA sell bars reappeared. Just wondered if someone is having the same issue or not...Im still testing this fine EA....

PS I also would like to get a Goto Meeting Room going sometime so everyone can talk about how they are doing on v11. Let me know and I will set it up..

Thanks all

what i believe is tht, it happens if u have not moves the mt4 folder from the default location to somewhere else as it was directed by the seller9 in the very 1st video, if u had moved and even then this problem is coming, try running the mt4 as "Run As Administrator" by right clicking on the mt4 icon..

if you would like to keep continue with group pairs. keep it mind its move 40/50pips together due to correlation and then reverse.
and after reverse, some pairs keep continue to opposite side until next session or ever.
and offline chart what you have its not proper, it is lagging due to un- hedge currencies, when you see chart is moving up. its does not means that you are gaining profit.
groups are different beasts than basket, i think you already know it by now.... so keep posting your good work and KEEP IT SIMIPLE.

Good evening fellow roomies,

As i continue to test this great EA, I wanted to ask Sellar a question...I have noticed that on the wicks price does not reach to the top of the wicks? Are these phantom wicks? I am not trying to be funny but just curious on how the candles work. I am testing the 5 min has of 2222 and using the has direction only and it will not take a trade...

As I stated earlier, myself and a few trading buddies of mine have been in a trading room for 5 years. We like this EA and would love to open up a room to you guys and we all can get together and talk about how each of us trades this EA. Please let me know what day is good for everyone./..Thanks for any replies Sellar...Thank you

Yes, that is why the EA does not use the wicks, it is the way all the offline chart creators form the candles.

I haven't watched the HAS wicks, but that could be the case there also because of being placed on an offline chart, I turn mine off and the EA doesn't use them either.

USD7 basket is kind of hedge!! The USD7 offline chart is integral picture of this hedge. If USD7 offline chart does not showing spread of underlying 7pairs including in USD7 basket regardless of each pair direction the whole offline chart is worthless. Therefore, only difference USD7vsEUR7 is that USD7 chart would be less sensitive to USD (because USD almost cancel itself out; USDxxx - 3 Vs xxxUSD - 4) than EUR7 is sensitive to EUR (7 vs 0). To carry on with example my rationale of ofline charts is following:

EUR7 basket chart = sum of 7 eur charts, ie. (lets say BUY basket where some pairs gaining pips within candle +15, +45, + 75 and some losing - 3, -23, -13,31) that forming candle in offline chart always calculate incremental difference ( 15 + 45 + 75 - 3 - 23 -13 -31 = +65) among pairs. Bullish + 65 pips would be visible on EUR7 oflline chart as spread calculated ( 15 + 45 + 75 - 3 - 23 -13 -31 = +65). Same apply for USD7 regardless USD is partly hedghed.

I made a test where I compared 15min EURJPY chart Vs 15min basket of 14 (sum EUR7&JPY7 - combination hedge all currencies out apart EUR&JPY) and had nearly identical charts. If this wouldn't happen so the arbitrage opportunities would became possible and you could exploit difference between EURJPY value and synthetic EURJPY value (basket EUR7&JPY7 togather).


CAN PLEASE SOMEONE ELABORATE THAT
@hukam said - offline chart what you have its not proper.....when you see chart is moving up its does not means that you are gaining profit. (HOW COME!?!? if BUY basket open I must gaining profit regardless lagging, hedging If offline candle is going up ). DID I MISS SOMETHING??? Whats the use of offline chart than?
By looking offline charts which doesn't represent basket balance you look like commission paid business lawyer which going to defend serial killer even if he is not competent for anything apart business law and hoping to gain big profit from wining case.


However.......can someone adjust the code as stated in post 1549. Many thanks to Seller9 and all participants!!
