I am using a two pair basket with the PO set, TP @ 90 pips and TSL @ 160. Its on the Daily chart so I will set back and watch and wait. I manually found this pair going through each single daily chart to find the best matches. I was using the BT_CS EA to find my baskets and it just was not good enough. As Casyopea had discovered there was some up trends badly trending in the oppisote direction and the same for the down side. I had the same issues and just starting hunting for myself.

Hi everybody!
There has been mentioned, that we do only show the winning trades. And I think, that has a reason. I, for me, would show my explorer but its kind of useless, cause I did a lot of manual trading in the past years in this account and its my "educational account" so its a big loss.
But the winning trades show working setups. For sure not in every condition, as of sideways ranging markets. But in trending conditions, we can hunt a ton of pips.
So I show, what I'm in at the moment.
Its C14 and C5, both decisions to enter come from H4 charts in addition I have the daily charts open. For the H4 charts alone, both have been early entrys but the daily shows, it can be the beginning of a trend here.
And the last one is a single pair. GBP/NZD, I like to trade this one for its high volatility. Useless to trade this in shorter than H4 timeframe, but the H4 works good for me. It just need a relative high stoploss.
For all trades is one rule: Trailingstop until the SL is at breakeven. From that point, I manage the stoploss myself. I'll take a look every couple hours and set it new. I'll never bring it down. If the trade comes back to SL, I get out, if not, I'm fine.
Patience is the key. So somehow, this three trades hunt my mondays and tuesdays losses from around 900 pips for entering trades automatically in jpy7 15 min, c14 15 min, c14 1 hour, c5 15 min. All in the wrong direction.
Yesterday I decided to stop everything below H4 and since that, my trades look good.
Last to mention, for this year, I'm in the loss for around 8000 pips. Another EA before this one got me to that. So shell I reallys show the explorer? Its kinda useless.
And now, one whish to seller9... would it be possible, to show the pips as a summary for the running trades, instead of the dollar/euro amount? For each trade and the summary, that would be nice. I don't want to see money. I trade for pips. The money change, if the position size change. The pips keep always pips.
Kind regards and successful trading
Markus

For anyone who is trading on the higher tf, this is a nice setup to go short once the pa bounces off the HAS. I beleive it will because most of the pairs have topped out on the daily charts and have already reversed. It could be a long ride down on a daily or 4h chart. Check it out! I will be catching this wave down!
There could be 700 to 1000 pips sitting here for the taking.
