Hi all,

I'm almost new to this thread, reading everything since page one and test this awesome EA in demo and real accounts nearby. There has not been a problem in setting this thing up, cause the manual is great. Thanks for everything, Seller9! Great job and I'm willing to donate some greens, as soon as I make some profits with your tools.

Beside of this, I found a minor bug and I don't know, if somebody already mentioned that, I'm reading page 90 atm...

Today morning, before I went to work, I wanted to put a breakeven setting in my runnung manual trade, that has been in negatives that time but just to make sure, if it runs into profit... well. Breakeven has been OFF in settings and I switched it to on. I think, that causes the EA to reload and then it putted the pink BE line above the actual price for a couple pips. But mention that again, the trade has been in negative.

The EA then closed my trade with a little loss. Nothing to cry for but you should know, I think. I'm not sure why that happened, the BE should have no effect to a so far losing trade.
Attached is a screenshot of the close.

Have a nice day and again, thanks for the great tool, that is, what I have been looking for and more!

Got caught today with a too tight TSL at 10 pips. I tried to adjust it manually a bit but still got hit. Now I realize the importance of a 25 pip TSL

OK

What happened when the trade was taken the price did go up past the BE point so the Robot recorded this as the BE value.

So when you added the BE later on after the price went below this value the Robot closed the trade.

That's something I will fix in the next version so the Robot doesn't do this until the PA has moved the required pips.

For now, everyone, don't add the BE when a trade is open unless you are past the original BE settings of pips the PA has to move.

There is always some little bug that will get you, that's why we have demo accounts.

Nice Catch and Good Luck.

Thanks for the quick answer, sounds logic. Good to know, its to fix.

And well, demoing is nice but I did that only in my real account, the demo, I mostly let alone. Anyway, I reentered that trade a couple hours later and think it will move. All indicators are looking good for north but at this time, that trade can go either ways. My bet is on breakout to north anyway.

Have a nice day, I'll let you know about the C14 long results.

Good day all,
I have some results to share of how I have been trading the EA since the 12th of this month. Before I start, I want to thank Seller9 for all his help and genuine concern to see us succeed in our trading endeavors. And to all of you that have supplied so much support to the cause. I have put in a lot of brain matter into this BT EA trying to come up with the best way to trade with it that fits my needs and style, as I know many have also. I just want to throw my two cents in. I have been using the BT_CS EA to create a Buy and Sell Basket. Settings for the EA is only have the D1, W1, MN set to true, the rest are set to false. I do this because I trade on the H1 baskets and I want a steady outlook of the buy and sell treads to last hopefully for the trading week. My basket size is set to 10. I like the larger baskets, the more horses to share the work load the greater the rewards. What I have found about using this EA to create your baskets, buy using the Strength baskets you have the top 10 (or what ever you use) strongest pair to trade with for both directions. And for us that have a broker that does not allow hedging or has a FIFO policy, you never have to worry about that. So I create my baskets, note: things in the world change, so keep an eye on the basket strengths at least once a week, and when the basket gets week, just create a new one and trade away. Now for my setting on the BT_14 EA. HAS = 2-6-2-3, IXO1 = 860, IXO2 = 1060. My offline charts are BuyS10 h1, and SellS10 h1. Entry is #2 & 3, Exit is TP and IXO1 only!!! (When I do my weekly back test check to QA my settings and adjustments, I find the average TP for all trades and set the upcoming week to that Master TP.)
So, now I have two baskets open on the same account, one Buy and one Sell, I turn off the Long or Short buttons on the EA respectfully so as the Buy will only take a long trade and the Sell a short. I have seen by doing it this way cuts out 90% of the whipsawing that most get caught in. These trade are passed up!
The follows are the results I have since the 12th of this month. The SellS10 basket produced 1,181 pips = three positive trades and one bad. The BuyS10 basket gave me 875 pips = two good and one bad trade. I think for me I have zeroed in on a positive system. Sorry I am long winded, have a great day.

Some of you are asking me for screen shots, well they are not going to tell you anymore than you loading the system on your offline chart. Do it and you will see what I'm talking about. Do a quick back test, it will prove my points. I am a team player here and I would have uploaded a screen shot if it warranted one. So please do not reply with just a message, "screen shot". Check it out for yourself. What Seller9 has given us is a great gift and we owe it to him to share what we come up with to others. He is the master builder, I'm just trying to master driving this machine he has given us. So again, my screen shot would not tell you any more than what I have explain in writing. Apply it and see it!!!! Peace!

{quote} How long you use it? What is your expierience with this? How it made difference?
just like I said,it's an optimizing tool
play with the inputs and you will see for yourself
personally I'm using the indi to optimize all my Baskets H4 TF tradings.

I check the most profitable XO settings each month,
and let the EA trade XO cross for the entry,Xo opposite cross for the exit
I use the EA only if I'm not in the front of the screen

average 300 pips\week since January,but sorry to say ,results are "contaminated" by manual trades

BUT I've posted the link to see if some good CODER could expand XOProfitSingle capabilities !
Do you want serious back testing guys ? ?

okay... i have now got this set up but only as BuyS5 and SellS10 on H1. Lets see as for the IXO2, I tried to use the XO Optimizer tool shared by the Bourne in the previous page. I added entry 0 for the IXO2 entry, but I still have entry 2 and 3. Exits, I have the HAS price action close turned on. SL and TSL are set to 10 but not turned on. Will click the button for SL and TSL when it seems there is a need for it.

BuyS5 only has only the Buy R function and vice versa for the SellS5.

Hey Patmontes, all sounds good. Are you using you TP? By finding the average TP will help capture some pips that you would miss by just using the HAS PA close. Just a suggestion. I also have found in the back testing that using the IXO1 cross as the only other exit it gets you out before the HAS PA thus capturing more pipage.

thanks for the tip! No TP at the moment I would have to figure out that figure, depending on some few results then to average that and use the figure for next week TP.
thanks for sharing the IXO1 cross as the other exit
From the manual sight back testing of entry and exit over H1...it seems good!!!!
