I am playing around with the IXO 1 & 2 values in the EA, but no matter what values I put, the values on both the indis and the main screen indicate 400 and 800. Tried to remove the EA, attach it again to the chart and change values, no luck. Tried to stop the robot, load a settings file with different values, no luck. Can anybody point out if I am overlooking something/doing something wrong ?

Try this:

1. Stop the robot
2. Open the Expert Advisors/Properties menu.
3. Access the Inputs tab and scroll down to the F19 Entry Filter Settings section.
4. Set Enable_Indicator_Link = true.
5. Click OK.

The "Enable Indicator Link" was set to true.
Stopped the robot, changed it to false and then back to true.
That worked like a charm for the main screen, where the newly introduced HAS and IXO values now show correctly.

In the IXO 1 & 2 indicator window, the old values still show, but I will play around some more with this parameter to see if I can solve that as well.

Thanks a mil Eagle85 !

You must set Enable Indicator Link to false if you want to chance the settings in the EA.

I'm with you on that analysis. Looks like a re-trace. hopefully C5 goes on a retrace also. Trade still open.
I try not to use C5 basket anymore because in moments like this when JPY is stronger and USD is weaker the C5 basket is in a range.
I better split the C5 basket into USD4 basket and JPY5(JPY7) basket.
Look at this USD4 basket how nice it is.

I agree on C5, it is an old basket, dated from times where USD and JPY were highly correlated as safe haven currences.

It's not the case anymore and C5 became somewhat choppy.

The only good correlation basket i have managed to construct based on current market conditions is AUD +NZD vs EUR+CHF

Here is how m15 chart looks. Mind, that you won't be able to create this chart with Seller's basket creator since it lacks the inverse function. To create this chart you have to use this creator http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...64#post7292464

I tried to draw Seller's attention to this, undoubtfully usefull dunction to be added to his Basket Creator, but so far no luck.

Maybe he will notice this post, who knows

Seller, there is a horrible bug in your EA!

When profit target is hit in alert window is says "hir" not "hit".

You have to deal with it asap...

The best way to use this is leave it set at true and then adjust the indicators on the screen and the EA will follow and adjust itself to your new screen settings.

This keeps them both in sync with each other.

Why do you use same pairs twice in your basket?

Also, notice that this kind of baskets tend to correlate only for a period of time. Make a chart with more history and i bet you will see a lot of chippiness back there.

it's working so well.. the last time i closed it was because i wanted to + my lot size.. the only problem with that is, you have to wait for another setup. so screw all that, i'll wait til the weekend before i add more lots. i'll take profits i have now, and work on that afterward. kinda hard though cause we are ALWAYS in a trade lol but screw that.. i need to let it run and just keep making $ for me.. no more closing positions !

Are running version 21? If not, you need to as soon as possible. You can add to your lot during a trade. Also when you see your trade coming to an end and getting ready to close at the next candle, either stop the bot as soon as it closes or if you do not catch it, just close out the new trade long enough to make your changes. That's what I did, no problems.

oh crap, that's awesome ! i'll upgrade soon, i'm still in the JPY long right now.

EDIT: if we get an IXO1 direction change. i can take profit at that point and upgrade cause i know that means retrace before moving higher. at the same time, i noticed on an IX01 cross i can add to positions
