Hi traders,

Just an update/reminder for those who remember the last upgrade that Seller9 made to his EA, namely the inclusion of the CCI trading candles as suggested by Demp...
I've been testing it out on the CHF pairs to see how it works and from what I can see the CHF pairs work well. I didn't take the GBPCHF pair because of the spread.
They don't seem to originate a lot of changes in the CCI trend and you can get long green and red periods, which is good since this is a method that you let ride for some time...
I started last week, but then closed it to take some profit... and then started again yesterday with a small lot size.
This time I'm going to try to let it run longer...

Anyway, below is a screenshot of what it looks like now...

This is how I read the market, I look for strength and weakness. This is just a quick post will post more later

What I see:

USD Pairs:

USD has some strength compared to other pairs. And I can see GBP and EUR are weak.

EUR Pairs:

Eur is weak across the board. So you can look to sell it vs. other pairs.

GBP Pairs:

GBP is also quite weak across the board. EUR is weaker, CHF is a little stronger at this moment. NZD is average vs. GBP

CHF Pairs:

CHF is mixed across the board and is very volatile so I'll pass

JPY Pairs:

Mixed

CAD Pairs:

Some strength across the board getting stronger now.

AUD Pairs:

Very strong right now, looks like CAD might be taking over soon

NZD Pairs:

NZD weakness across the board. EUR and GBP currently weaker.

This is just my brief review of how I look at the market feel free to comment!

As promised the one-shot channel indicators.
You load the indicator, it will draw its channels and exits.
If you leave the parameter removeold to false it will draw a new channel and leave the old one, set to true it will first remove the old channel|(s).
Also a BDM update solving the display basket file problem.

Sam loves the triangles (now I love triangles), so in his honor, we have USDJPY.

Hi Hotpotato,

As promised, here is the screenshot of the trade I took today with the Cherry Pick + BDM.
I tested it on one of my real accounts (with small lot size 0.02), because everything looked right... and made 151.99€... not bad at all.
As you can see, I also used the Add function twice.

In terms of the other ongoing CCI trade... I crashed my VPS, because I tried to shutdown the BT ea without stopping the robots first... ooops!
I couldn't get back into the ea so I had to close all my trades manually with my ipad...
I will have to start the CCI trading experiment again...

But nevertheless... it was a 8.6% profit day (hoping for more like this)

I just downloaded the new BDM files...
The indicators that you send now... are they the same as before or do we have to do a new install from scratch?

In BDM only the EA BDMv1.03.ex4 has changed.

In channels.zip i renamed the one-shot indicators to ATC (automatic trade channel) and SHIC (Shi channel) but you do not have to use them you can use the old ones.

To create a default BDM template:

Load BDM
Load whatever you want as long as you get charts.
On one of the charts load all indicators you want.
Right click on that loaded chart and save the template as BDMv1.tpl (that's the default for all charts)

Don't want to break your work on the ea, but I couldn't get to making a default template.
I did everything you mentioned and save the template (even tried saving it to the files folder where the custom templates are), but when I reload the charts, the indicators don't appear... any idea?

PS: The indicators are only appearing on the chart that I used to create the template and not on the rest of the charts from the group...

You are right, will have a look.
You can try to make a template on a totally not to the EA related chart and save that as the "BDMv1" template

Hi Hotpotato,

Nice trade,I have some questions,do you only use kopratasa pick BUY and SELL group (before LONDON OPEN 3 HOURS),and BUY/SELL immediately?
my broker is GMT+3,and my local time is GMT+8,how should i set kopratasa's forzen hour and forzen minutes?
shall we avoid High News trade?for example,Kopratasa DB pick EURUSD,and today have NFP,should we eliminate EURUSD?


Best Regard

Liu

No, you are not right.
For me it works, try to load one or two of the standard indicators and then save the template as BDMv1

I tried and the problem seems to be the 2 indicators that you supplied this time... something must have happened when you renamed them, because BDM is not calling them.
I tried with the previous indicators you sent in the previous version and it works fine.

Those are one-shot indicators (SHIC & ATC) they fire and exit.
So by the time you are saving the template they are........gone.
