This is a bet tricky.

There's is no fixed setting for the trade manager because that will depend on the number of open trades, and lot size which depends on your account leverage and margin requirements.

On Cross Trader I am using 1% of balance for each position, My account leverage is 1:200, (margin req. is 5%). For accounts with higher leverage the lot size will be more, and for accounts with lower leverage the lost size will be less.

So on my current account the lot size is ranging from 0.15 to 0.25 depending on the cross traded.
And I have it attached to 14 pairs.
On Average I have 3 trades open.
On the trade manager I set the profit target around 2% ($200 on a $10,000 account). Which on average gives 30-40 pips profit per each cross.

You can override the lot size issue by using the Fixed Lot Size.

If your are trading one cross it will be easy to calculate the desired profit percentage or amount.
But it gets complicated if you trade a basket, because you don't know in advance how many trades are going to open.

A guide would be for example to have 1% profit target for every 2 trades opened.
So if you have 6 trades open you change it to 3%, and so on.

If you are planning to use the basket profit, it would be better to disable the SL/TP on Cross Trader, and let the trade manager close at basket TP or SL.

Maybe in next versions it is better to add Profit/Loss Percentage and Amount close on the Cross Trade it self, with options on current traded cross or the whole basket.

Младший MA выше старшего MA ....
Да , тут забралась ошибка. Имелось ввиду , что более быстрая МА3 пересекает менее быструю МА2 вверх ( при этом обе находятся выше ( или некритически ниже ) медленной МА1 ).
Уж не знаю какие-такие ассоциации вызвала данная фраза , но рад , что ВАМ было весело.
===
Относительно фразы "пальцем в небо" - это исключительно русская фраза. Боюсь , что Google опять начудит и вывернет смысл в неведомом направлении. Тем не менее постараюсь в 2-х словах объяснить.
Когда ты с завязанными глазами решил подстрелить летящий Boinge , то вероятность попадания есть , хоть и гипотетическая. Все зависит от высоты , на которой летит жертва , калибра твоего орудия , направления ветра , удачного залегания в окопе, от того , что ты употреблял сегодня ночью и пр..... Вообщем , попасть можно.
П.С.
Спасибо за наводку на MA_CROSS_WT . обязательно посмотрю. В любом случае , хотелось бы реализации вашего поста 713 в данном советнике.
=======
Junior MA above the older MA ....
Yes, there is a bug crawled. There was a view that the faster crosses MA3 MA2 less fast up (in this case, both are above (or below uncritically) slow MA1).
I do not know any such association brought the phrase, but I'm glad you had fun.
===
Regarding the phrase "попасть пальцем в небо" - it's only Russian phrase. I fear that Google will turn again nachudil and meaning in an unknown direction. Nevertheless, I will try in 2 words to explain.
When you're blindfolded decided to shoot flying Boinge, then the probability of getting there, though hypothetical. It all depends on the height at which the victim is flying, fire your gun, the wind direction, the successful deposition in the trenches, from what you tried last night and so on ..... In general, you can get there.
PS
Thanks for the tip on MA_CROSS_WT. be sure to take a look. In any case, I would like to exercise your post 713 in this EA.

"motor fuels finger to the sky" means a "matter of luck" in this context.

Hello Khalil and everyone :-)

I just wondered What time of day est are you running the cross trader at the moment and what settings are we using for the 5 min chat as 5000 TP seems very large on my settings so I got stopped out on a AUD/JPY trade last night that would have been profitable with a smaller SL. My price was 77.389 so seems the same decimal places as you're using Khalil :-)

Thanks

Well. I am still using the same settings when I started the forward testing. I only changed the Signal time frame to M30 and attached it to M5 time frame since beginning of last week. I didn't change any thing this week.

The TP is too far for an M5 trader, I agree. It is like there is actually no TP. What I do is that I attached a trade manager "Close_All_Trades", you can find it on post 721, and set profit target percentage (2% or so, depending on number of open trades.). The reason for that is I am attaching the EA to multiple pairs (basket).

If you want to use the direct TP feature in the Cross Trader, I suggest using something like 500 points (50 pips).

Thanks Khalil :-)

So if you add the trading manager as well as the EA on every asset it will close groups of
trades together from different assets st the same time at a set percentage profit? I
guess you think this works better than just a
low set tp?

Thank

You need to put the trading manager (Close_All_Trades) only on one chart that does not have any other EA on it.
It handles the trades on the account level wither they were opened by an EA or manual.
Its a simple closing EA, nothing fancy.

I am planning to develop a full-feature account manager in the near future.

I always believed in trading a basket of pairs, so yes I think it works better.
