{quote} that was a zero cross CCI system on H4, USDJPY only. with 10k on core-5, SL 200 or 250. use this to calculate your risk. I risk 5% of my account, and I have my reasons for that, i.e. for me to completely loose an account down to zero $, I have to loose 20 or more straight times, full SL. They say its possible in this business, at least I have read it somewhere, but I am yet to see it. I have seen twice on a row I mean on H4 basket. So for me to prescribe lot size for you is not good, sit down and calculate, how much are you willing to loose...
Just to help those with "smaller" account sizes - The above simply means:

For a starting Balance of $500, use a lotsize of 0.01 (IF...if you want to mirror Kos' 5% Risk per basket model above.)

Again baba Kos - Thank you.

Ty

{quote} its not a 2+2 thing. kos
It didn't seem to complex on the face of it

Would be amazing if we had an MT4 platform that would let you invert them if you wanted to by default.

{quote} no mate, is not risky, for me its ok, and i sayd him 0.2 maximum..but if he is a new in that system, 0.1 will be excelent.
I'm new (I got bored on H4 and ran off first time) - Must find ways to occupy time on H4 - DD doesnt look that bad on this system either. I'll use 0.05 lots for now as I also have other EAs running which need some equity.

Whats the max DD you've experienced in pips Shum?

cheers

I just went long too on M15. I have a question for the group. Looking at Tidane on H4, is it true that price MUST go back to the trend line?

Why not close out now is basically my question? That move looks exhausted. I say that because price is so far away from the trend line.

Kos - I think your prayers may have come true! I got in on the upward move last night as was practicing on M15 but this still looks like a sell on H4.

It looks about ready for another leg down doesn't it, at least the gap between price and the tidane trend line are closing.

I assume you trade M15 manually? Otherwise, how do you manage to cut out the ranging time periods? You can get in on some really nice intraday moves with tidane. Just would be good to have a start and stop time so the EA trades during London and New York.

Hey Kos,

Thank you Sir BUT...but I have to go all Oliver Twist on you please:

=> Is it possible to add an Alert to the Tidane Indicator? Thanks.


Quote
E.G. to get a correct AUD pairs offline chart you will Buy = AUDCAD,AUDJPY,AUDNZD,AUDUSD,AUDCHF and Sell EURAUD, GBPAUD This will give you the real and correct offline for AUD basket. But if you look at the code of basketv8 it just buys all so EURAUD & GBPAUD is in the wrong direction and this will impact on the offline chart and your trades.


=> I tried to Create a CHF Offline (AUDCHF,CADCHF,GBPCHF,NZDCHF,USDCHF,EURCHF Only) using Basketv8_new_format...What I get is a "Waiting to Update" Message on the Charts. I was wondering if maybe you know why this is? I deliberately removed the CHFJPY pair since this one is in "reverse" but even if I add it back in, it's STILL the same issue. [Note: Offlines for USDx, JPYx, EURx, GBPx seem to work ok as long as the "reverse" pairs are removed where needed.]

Am aware that the solution you are working on for creating offline charts for Batch Currency Crosses like EURx, GBPx, etc (whew - what a mouthful!) should solve the above, but I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong (choleric! ).

Anyways, as ALWAYS, thank you Kos.

Ty

1500 pips pullback? I dont like the idea of being in 3000 pips profit followed by giving back 1500 pips.

I am in long on H1 at the moment.
