{quote} Hi dtlase, On further examination of the changes to your new dashboard, I noticed that you completely took away both of the following: 1. Scalp M1&M5 Candle Direction 2.

According to Post #536, I believe that the...

That might be a good idea to consider but the other serious issue has to do with the "One Trade Per Candle" as I simply prefer it autotrading and watching it.

Today wasn't good at all because of those missing features. I'm hoping dtlase would profer a fix soon... really praying so because I love the CSM concept he has introduced into the Dashboard very much.

Did I? I'm not really sure until you show me that statement, but I think it's more 1.0 or 0.5 even.

Hi LFN,

Just looking at the below screenshot by husky77 in Dashboard Trading thread, Post #13,028, made me partly realize where dtlase might be heading to with the inclusion of the seven (7) MA setup in his dashboard. I think he wants us to simulate the concept of the MADdash and trade it that way - which does make a lot of sense.

So I think we can do with that for the moment but would still appreciate that dtlase restore the "Scalp M1&M5 Candle Direction" and "Swing M15-MN Candle Direction" for those who prefer the Candle Direction instead. Once the "One Trade Per Candle" bug can be fixed, then I think the main testing of the CSM concept can start taking effect on Autotrades.

What do you think?

Hi jarfx05,

I just want you help with the MPTM. Often times, the EA just closes my trades immediately the trades are open even though I have I set it to Add Missing TP/SL to avoid cases where the Dashboard fails to add them to trades.

So, I don't know if you experience such during your use of the MPTM and how did you overcome this. And also, can you share your current set file for it for me to see how you have set up yours.

Thanks.

Hi guys, I hope you have a nice day. Just want to illustrate how easy and relaxed you can grab your pips if you follow the GAP.

Hi PD.
Yes, the candle direction (Scalp/Swing) is very useful. At least at the older 5c version.
The MADash concept is for sure implemented by dtlase of the reason to use it that way.

No clear information yet for my demotesting. My PC is running hot, the better results so far seems to come with "use gap filtering-TRUE" and maybe "rsi filtering-TRUE"

PS. Use APTM instead of MPTM (at SH forum).

Hi LFN,

You must be running a lot of tests at the same time to be making your system get so hot. How many are you running simultaneously?

Would probably test the RSI(2) next week and see how it goes but the MADdash with the default indicator setting did get some trades in but the "One Trade Per Candle" issue made it enter multiple trades - though they went in profit I would prefer the wait.

I'm currenly using APTM but what I've noticed is that it is not really that reactive in terms of following the price and moving my trailing stops - may be it is my system getting choked up and not allowing it to instantly carry out is operations.

Running 8 setups on v5c, 4 setups of v5i, 5 setups of HPs V3Q. And a lot more of EAs on more terminals.
I Am using fixed tp and sl for better comparison between settings.

Should we organise next weeks setups so we don't run the same ones?

This is the RSI filter I am using on dtlase V5i:

Shouldnt it block trades when RSI is between 25 and 75 level? And only take sells below 25, and buys above 75?
Or do I have to set RSI to current bar (0) for that filter?

From the screenshots taken when the trades is opening it seems that it took trades when RSI was between 25 and 75.

EDIT: I may have to take that back. When dragging the trades on a M30 chart with RSI2 I can see that the trades IS taken above/below 75/25.
But the information on the screenshot is telling me something else.

Many trades would been stopped out before reach the 4.2 pip target. If a SL get hit you would need like a 95% win rate? Please explain... thanks.

I like to see the green pip! But be careful with that MPTP, maybe it's some kind of bad coding, sometimes it doesn't trigger and safe your trade!
