For the "can't wait" betatesters among us (market not yet closed).

Click on one of the six basket generate buttons.
Below the button the basket name will appear.

xxy-zz
xx = basket type (BS=buystrong,BM=buymedium,BC=buystrong+buymedium and same for SS,SM,SC)
y = daynumber of week
zz = number of pairs in the basket

After that you can use BDM to check the basket

Come back, click on [generate chart] and the basket_create window will popup just like with Basket_writer_v7.

Hi Hotpotato,

Your work is becoming a FANTASTIC tool to help feed Seller's BT EA... Congratulations!

I'm a "can't wait" kind of guy... just kidding... in forex you have to wait - A LOT!
But since my trading for today is finished (after I crashed the VPS), I downloaded your latest version of the "Cherry Picker"
It's looking GREAT.

Since I'm no programmer, my contribution will be to continuously give you feedback to improve this tool.
So here goes...

While testing the following 5 situations came up which you might want to look into.

  1. When I clicked on the "Sell Medium" button I saw (by the name) that it created a basket of 10 pairs. These pairs are not all visible in the matrix you created (visually limited to 7) and they also don't appear on the BDM ea (visually limited to 8 charts).
  2. The BDM ea is EXCELLENT for quickly checking/filtering the charts that will make up the final basket for trading. However, when coming back to the Cherry Picker, you can't take out one or two pairs that you just filtered using the BDM...
  3. When I clicked the "Generate Basket" button... nothing happened. No pop-up appeared. (Am I doing something wrong?)
  4. Then I clicked the "Sell Strong" button and the name appeared below, but the previous "Seel Medium" didn't dissapear. Don't know if this might cause some kind of complication when generating the offline charts. Maybe a "Clear" button?
  5. When I switch between the Cherry Picker and BDM and then back again to the Cherry Picker, it wasn't full screen... it minimized.

The rest of the functions seem to be working perfectly: The autolock, the newsfeed, the 10 second data renew rate, the intergration between Cherry Picker and BDM, the templates, etc...

GREEN pips to you HP!

Thank for the feedback VCM, i'll try to answer.

1. Indeed due to the template only 7 of all the selected pairs are visible, the (hopefully Sunday evening version 1.04) will not use the images/background anymore so i am more free to show all the selected pairs.
BDM is only limited to 8 pairs on the screen, you can go deeper into the basket by filling in an offset number (field behind the basket name).

2. I will build a rudimentary basket editor into the Kopratasa EA so you can delete or add pairs. In one of the next versions i will change that with buttons ala Sellers Basket writer.

3. Could it be that you didn't set the Hotkey for Sellers Basket_create_vx indi ?

4. No, no complications it is meant to be this way. You can then first generate more baskets and after that create the offline charts.

5. Use F11 to get it back to full screen, but i'll see what i can do.

Set the timer in the inputs for 2 hours and 1 minute after Asian open local time. Wake up two hours before London open and use the selected buy/sell baskets as in the Locked screen to create baskets in BT.
Which one are we to follow-2 or 3 hours to Asian Open?

Thanks!

Phemmy, really sorry to pop your bubble. I wouldn't call your success a success yet! You may well have got lucky because of the good NFP data released for the US today. If the NFP had been bad today, you'd probably be looking at some big losses instread of gains. We need to find a solution of how to incorporate fundamentals into our analysis. Sam was meant to reply but seems he's deserted us now, sadly. I asked and a few others too about what he does when he checks the fundamentals.

Does he take a punt on whether NFP data for example will be higher or lower than expected? Nobody knows because he has never explained. Not saying he has to but he said he would and then he messaged saying he's left the forum. Having looked over his prior posts. You get little more than lines shown on a chart. Zero explanation. Sending a picture of something saying "Fundamentals check" "Technicals check" isn't really helping much because we don't what process he goes through in order to be satisifed with being on the right side of news releases which come out daily.

I was also interested in his pip returns and whether he opens new baskets daily or just one basket on the Sunday/Monday. Maybe some others know?

He can show us amazing profits in terms of absolute value but how do we know how much risk he took to make those profits?

Anyway I'll try to feedback to this forum what my findings are when I use CallientePapa's indicator which I agree looks amazing and I've said that to him directly.

I hope it brings Kopra and Seller back to the table.

My brother, we are still testing Hotp's work.

Let us be patient with him and his work.

For now Sam is not ready to explain his method, even when he was still here.

Hotp has taken kopratasa's work to another level.

Let us be patient.

First credit to whom credit is due, this trade setup is the idea of member Kopratasa who kindly shared his setup on this thread.
I only am pouring it into an easy usable form.

Second according to his strategy you have to take the values after the second hour of the Asian session.
Today i accidentally took the values three hours after Asian open but i did observe that the EA only selected three pairs to trade after the second hour but eight after the third hour.

Opemipo today proofed (with NFP) that trading only two pairs can be profitable also but i like to trade more pairs in a basket so i am playing with the idea to build in a kind of time-shift were you set the minimum pairs required and if that target is not reached the EA will shift his lock one hour further into the session.
The EA does need to be able to store and recall the original data before a shift occurs thus giving us the possibility of recalling that setup and trading the original selection.

Well the solution for that will probably come to me tomorrow morning when i am in the shower without a notepad to jot it down.

Ps.

A possible solution came to me now and i am not even in the shower, Buttons !
Assian +1
Assian +2 (kopratasa's setup)
Assion +3
etc etc.
And with a little help from BDM......

Yes I agree we need more time BUT its important that we dont give false impressions on this thread that simply opening a basket at a set time based on a trend and strength snapshot is going to be profitable all the time. Fundamentals do have an impact and my fear would be how we deal with the indicator giving a buy or sell signal for some news to them come out which sends the trade south.

I actually really struggle with the timezones.

My VPS is GMT
My broker is GMT+2
and my time is EST

Does the time in the EA use the local machine time or the MT4 platform time?

You want to know why Sam does not show us specific his technique because if he show his method to all of us, then everybody can gain big profit everyday and th broker will try to defeat Sam"s method. Finally, Sam would be the loser in this forex market. Trust me, no one will show you the way they success in this forex market, only yourself can discover the secret. There is 1 word I can tell you; do not use any indicator even the CCI trending, it is lagging. I use only SnR. Even Hotpotato is new technique that give you profit everyday , but the only thing he give you only the EXE4 file not the mql4 with the code, in the future if he does not in this FF anymore, how can you make money without him. You need to try to discover by yourself. If Hotpotato is nice, I think he would post the mql4 file
