Hi Guys

New to posting on this thread but I have been following this for a while, loving all the work you guys have done. Problem I am finding is navigating to the correct posts to find the start and finish of a strategy or trading idea. Now over 8000 posts, where do you start? I have read through a lot but to hard to read through the lot and be able to retain it all. Is there any of you that have some good strategies and ideas that have posted on this tread that can note down the post number for people to start researching that specific strategy. Happy to start some sort of list of strategy-indies-EAs-Post numbers-Traders involved, so we all have a quick reference but need a bit of help to start.

Kopra, don't be too hard on yourself from the information I have read through you are a genuine, smart trader and someone that we could all try to learn from. So please stay and continue your excellent work.

Hello fellow KOA Campers:

I went to bed last night thinking of a way to show the core 7 pairs and their relationship to the crosses. Then I had an epiphany: since the pairs are based on currencies from countries around the world, I realized a geographical map might help. I thought about the in-flight magazines on airliners that show all the places the airline flies to with lines spanning out from hub airports to far away destinations.

Now, I no longer have a PC with all of my graphics software, so I decided to draw up a basic map the old fashioned way. So below is a picture of my masterpiece.

Note that the U.S.A. is in the center of the map, and there are 4 pairs leaving the U.S., quoted in $USD.

Note further, that there are 3 pairs arriving in the U.S., quoted in their countrie's currencies: JPY, CAD, and CHF.

These are the 7 "Core" or main currency pairs.

Then, each country and the Euro zone has its pairs. Note that the countries of Japan and Switzerland quote all of their pairs in their own currency.

To understand fully how to read quotes correctly so you know what's really going on, here's a web-link address that explains it pretty well:
http://www.investopedia.com/universi...ket/forex2.asp

I created a profile for the core 7, and profiles for each countries' currencies, as indicated on my map. No need to put the exotics in your profiles as that will just confuse you. I suggest you build your profile to look like my example of my core 7 profile. Yes, it takes time to align those
charts manually on the vertical, ...but it's MUCH easier to visualize in this format. I made profiles for everything you see on this map. And, I made profiles in for all of these in the m15, H1, H4 time frames. Yes, it took a long, long time to make all those profiles, and it was more boring that watching the movie "The Piano Player."

But, when I was a boy, my Mom taught me about the Three Little Pigs, ...and I wanted to be prepared, and to be able to look at the Basket Writer information and then quickly be able to see what was happening on the charts.

This will be confusing at first, but do yourself a favor, and print out my illustrious and beautiful map and keep a copy by the toilet. Tape it to the wall there (this masterpiece is also suitable for framing) ...and you will automatically memorize it, eventually, over time. By the way, if you count all the pairs on this map, you will find there are 28 pairs, exactly matching seller9's Basket Writer v. 7.

Last night, just by looking at the core 7 profile, I saw that 3 of the pairs were going up, and 4 of the pairs were going down. I didn't have time to take a picture of the core 7 profile at the time (although I wish I had for use in this example because it vividly showed the relationship between the profile chart and the end results on the basket charts this morning), ...but I did take snapshots of the set-ups on the basket charts, sans EA.

I hope these examples and ideas will help you. I actually put this all together to help myself and reinforce my own thinking. Good luck!

Now i'm in dd for ex and you say you are in gain... so how use this kind of excess in strengt or weakness? This is really difficult to understand for me... Any explain/suggests is really aprreciate Thanks Regards edit sorry i see that you refer not in aud basket but at global aud basket... so we have weakness ans strenght in the same basket??

{quote} Hi sharemaster2 I have sent you a private message regarding this subject but after reading your post again I thought I had better put in my two cents worth here. I have coded many EAs for different forums and different traders and have never charged or tried to sell any of them. I feel they should be free to anyone who wants to use them as many of the ideas come from traders in the forums. I was in contact with Kopra about doing the EA for him and offered a complete 28 pair hands off trading Dash Board that I would incorporate his formulas...

Thank you Seller for the effort you put in trying to create a functional 28 pair trading Dash Board. This would have been of immense help to all the members in this forum. Hope Kopra will have a change of heart and help you to create this DB. God will surely bless you both.
Happy trading

{quote} Hi seller9, I think you better read again the email I wrote to you before you start the project. First of all, you are the one who PM me asking about my trading technique and I never share the db I'm using to anybody. I have also post many times that I cannot share the db to other people due to the agreement with the coder but since the basket trading indicators are totally come from my idea, so I share my thoughts how to trade with the indi I proposed and hope somebody can do the coding and share with all members. And it is very strange...
If you have an idea than I suggest you post it here for all to see instead of posting screen shots of someones EA that you claim has taken your ideas but no longer works.

I contacted you to offer my help so the rest of the users in this forum could benefit, but all I got from you was ex4 files of someones EA that you claimed no longer worked and had stolen your ideas and was going to sell them.

If these ideas are yours you should have no problem explaining what they are and how they work, so here is your chance for everyone to see, post away.

Everyone else I have coded for has posted their idea for all to see with an explanation of how they use it and how it works so everyone can see if has legs to stand on.

As far as being 75% along in the project, that is not correct as it never got off the ground because of lack of information from you and my unwillingness to try and steal someones EA.

I sent you a screen shot of what the front of Dash Board would look like, this was just the front end and because of the lack of information from you the code was never added behind it. Also after trading emails with other users who had worked with you on so called projects I was told to careful.

So Post away, let everyone see your great ideas and they can be the judge.

To Sam (smknyc): Man, I agree with you. Trading IS about freedom. Thanks for refreshing my original idea of trading to live, not living to trade.

I've decided to give up scalping for a while and focus solely on the baskets. It IS so much easier to put in some thought, and let the basket EA spend all day trading, instead of me doing it.

What remains fuzzy to me, is when to set up the baskets. Of course, in anticipation of news and risk events; but aside from that, I wonder if I should set them up (baskets) when they are at the HAS, or at certain times of the 24 hour day?

For example, do you prefer to set up at Japan's open, London's open, or NY's open? Or, is timing set-ups like this irrelevant?

Thanks. Darran.

[quote=darranforex;8100253]Hello fellow KOA Campers: I went to bed last night thinking of a way to show the core 7 pairs and their relationship to the crosses.

Thank you Darran for this idea.

I place myself in the centre, i.e US as shown in your map. I create two baskets in the split of only those 7USD cores that you have indicated in the map located in the US. Have charts of the two baskets in H4 and H1. Remember to draw trend lines on the as advised by Sam.

You will have a rough idea of where the market may head...but who knows.....Sam himself follows "Smart Money".

Wait for the trade time (Position set-ups time 8:00am to 10:00am GMT) and simply follow smart money as advised by Sam. You will see exactly where to follow at that time. Then apply the great EA from Masta seller9 while applying Kopra's techniques of Adding positions, etc. You should be done under 2 hours if volatility, volume, etc is good.

Those are just my thoughts, not Gospel truth. Lets see how it goes today?

Hello Mr Kopra Mr Seller9 and everyone.

I did not understand why some people have to hatred you.....probably because they are jealous......that is why.

Anyway i fell always sorry when some kind of topics come out and hope everything will return back just like before.

I don't want be a part of anyone like i sad before in another post and i don't know what happen behind the scene, but what i can
understand about Kopra is that;

he is perfectly like you (Seller9), he always try to help people and share everything;the prove is on this thread,and without
ask anything at all,so i think he don't deserve this;as the contrary better share your both opinion and go on with your and his idea together.

Just my opinion.

Regards

01donatas,

Something to have a look at.
It's on a 10 second timer so it will change a lot.
In this one only the lock screen button works.
Use the #blank template from the BT system first chart/tf doesn't matter.

I still have to write some code but am also moving this week so a bit busy.

ps.
You need 1920x1080 and to use Ctrl+T to hide the terminal window.

Hi Hotpotato,

Thanks for your ongoing effort. It looks like you will nail Kopras way of cherry picking pairs in no time...
By the looks of this first dashboard, your final goal is for the trader to lock the screen when he sees something interesting and click the "write basket" button to create a basket that he/she can then put to work using Seller's EA... am I right?
Will the "write basket" button automatically set the pairs into the best basket panel based on sell strong, sel medium, etc...?

Great work. Thanks for sharing!!!

VMC

That's one way to use it.
The other one will be Kopratasa's way where you set a snapshot param two hours and one minute into the Asian session and it will lock the screen at that specific time.
I am considering a couple of write basket buttons for each selection and a couple of selection combinations.
