{quote} 30 minutes TF Q value: You may choose.
You plan to trade 2 cycles (1 short + 1 long) starting at the same time on an M30 TF and close to the 126.500 level.

Choice of Quantum decided by myself?

You realize that multiple cycles between this 1000 pip range is highly likely on an M30 TF.

Do you plan to allow the EA to trade these "endless" cycles until either the 120 or the 130 handle gets hit?

Just perfect.
Yes both cycles.
Quantum to be decided by you.
Endless cycles to end until either of the two handles are hi

Open an M30 TF and place say a Q of 20 on it.

Cycles using 1 Q value always oscillate from a short to a long to a short to a long or long to short to long to short etc.

So how do you propose to trade 1 long and 1 short cycle at the same time?

It is possible but you will need to consider 2 unique Quantum values based on the historical chart structure.
Over time and depending how cycles unfold it is likely that Q values (both of them) will need to be modified depending on recent and current PA.

ps. Finding the 2 unique initial Q values will take some time and then over time they too will need to be updated to flow with PA.
pps. This is dealing with only the one pair too which means same current direction for both cycles.

If possible, I will trade 1 long and 1 short cycle at the same time.
do I have to use two platforms?

I have traded this type of setup before however I used different TFs and different Q values.

What I was looking for was plenty of overlap between short and long trades in cycles as a means of reducing total current DD.

No you certainly don't need 2 platforms but you will need 2 GJ charts open at the same time and with unique magic numbers if applying EA.

This setup would really need the EA obviously otherwise you'd soon lose focus if you know what I mean ... too intense.

I suggest 2 different TFs and 2 different Q values such that as much overlapping between shorts and longs will occur for much of the trading time.

That will be ideal.
I would like to pass through that stress-test as well.

That will take some time and certainly wouldn't be able to get those done tonight.

However, over the next few days I'll look into getting the templates produced.

Does that suit?

Done.

EU Cycle closed in profit.

To this day, nothing trades as clean and stress free as QAM during Asian session open.

Thank you, Masterrmind!!!!

My pleasure and lets see the profits continue to flow.

Don't get too greedy, control the emotions especially when win after win occurs because as you know anything at anytime can interrupt the flow.

Some are avoidable.
Some are not so avoidable.

With your EU cycles the less time in the market can relate to less overall risk so a fast completing cycle at higher relative lot sizing is ideal.

May you have plenty more winning cycles.

Sometimes EA is not able to execute the order and error message says Ordersend error:4109.

What could be wrong in it.

I have had multiple technical issues with being able to post to my threads for reasons unknown.

I've also noticed that the QAM-1k-live TE is not visible anymore and this apparently is because its a cent account and can mislead viewers.

Mislead viewers huh!?

Why then doesn't the team at TE apply the correct currency units ... problem solved!

Therefore in my view it has nothing whatsoever to do with misleading viewers but rather a lack of TE addressing a simple functionality issue.

I guess that's just too difficult for them to handle....

FXBlue live does it seamlessly ...

ps. so I'm not sure what holds for the TE and therefore for those interested please view QAM statistics via myfxbook or FXBlue live.
