How are guys finding the IOX2 exit on the JPY pairs and adding positions?? Been in loses so far.... although loses are small the 4hr charts aren't yielding much so far probably because of range but still the right set-up for much bigger trends
Look to the LEFT of your CHART.....

roger, could you try to find some settings for the 15m charts ? we can avoid range on the 4h by going down to the 15m
Still looking, but here is the JPY7 15m, HAS 2-4-2-1, IXO1 = 160, IXO2 = 360, same entry and exit as 4h charts. Past 24 hour return, 250 pips + or - a few. Check it out and let me know what you think

That's the hope using these setting, to get through the ranging with minimal loss. I'm down some pips so far through this present ranging in the JPY7, that's OK, because once it starts to trend again it will be for mega pips. That is the hope!

Just loaded v21, Wow! what a great tool.

seller9 please can you tell me if I can use the Channel tool or the pending for Limit orders?
I would like to use it to bounce of support and resistance. I tried changing them around (top to bottom) but it only fired a trade of when I started up the EA.

@Seller9,

Love the ability to add to baskets - thank you!
The bot has now added a second JPY7 basket for a total (so far) of 3 baskets but the calculations of the total baskets is incorrect.
The EA only totals the LAST basket taken, and does not add in any profit for the previous baskets.
Am currently up some 250 pips but showing a loss of $4.50 instead of a profit of about $45.00
Can you have a look at the logic please.

Cheers,
Pip Poppy.

Today morning, I did not allow my EA to close the short JPY7 basket. Its in the deep red but I'm still confident in this short. We'll see.

The only green today is the CAD5 Basket, whats in a solid green atm. But the next candle starts in 15 minutes and well.... this one is really long and news based. I'm tempted to take the profit at 6 pm CEST. Still a losing basket for the week but well. The losing days are hard to take and a profit is a profit is a profit, even if it can not campare the losses.

Be careful with your losizes out there. These JPY7 ranging took a lot of pips and you never know how far the way is to get back into trending.

Seller, i have a proposition for EA functionality upgrade.

Is it possible to add an option to put stops and trail them only when X ammount of profit is reached?

This will ensure that the initial pullback a basket might experience from an entry point won't trigger stop, but will allow it to trail when basket reaches some profit.

Trend establishment is sometimes a messy process, but once it gets going it would be great to be able to trail it.

Thank is advance.
