{quote} Hi xmess7, I have a silly question, since you named your EA as "......Trade Monitor". Does this EA place all trades automatically at the beginning of the week or do we have to place trade manually? I don't know whether this is explained earlier in this thread. Thanks. Roy

RoyPK: That is good point. I can see how this can mislead one into thinking that, that is all it does. The reason I called it monitor is cause it monitors the CCFP indicator and waits to see which pairs will be traded. Then after that it monitors the open trades to see if the profit targets are reached.

Perhaps a change in name is in order?? LOL. Naw, what I may do is in the next version, I will add like a help or notice or something so that a user can read what the EA does. I'll figure something out.

Hi xmess7,

Thanks a lot for your detailed explanation. Thanks again for all your hard work to make the EA a perfect one.

Green pips to you.

Thanks to all those who contribute to this discussion in particular Forexpinbar and xmess7, I follow very interested in the development of the system. Monday will try to open a chart with TF 10080 (opening in London + 60 minutes, profitlock 200, trailing 100, TP 500 and SL 200) and each day a graphic with TF 1440 (opening in London + 60 minutes, profitlock 100, trailing 50 , TP 300 and SL 150), Pepperstone demo account, equity of approximately € 5.000, 0.1 lots no VPS. If the system shows interesting things, I could rent a VPS for 1 or 2 months. Xmess7 ask if it was possible to insert the closing of all trades at a certain time on Friday?
excuse any mistakes, I'm using the Google translator.

shango61: Ask and you shall receive.

Version 13 update.
This version has the inputs that allow you to tell the EA when to close the basket. The default CloseDay is set for Friday and the hour is set to 00:00.
Set the hour to the broker time that corresponds to GMT. If the EA sees that trades are still open it will close them on the day and hour you indicate in the inputs.

Any questions let me know..

Please note, that this feature and the others that were introduced in version 12 (individual trades, Profit lock etc) have not been tested. Hopefully the logic is ok and we will see all this stuff working fine next week. If not, we'll get it fixed.

ForexPinBar, remove version 12 and add this version to page 1. Keep version 11, this would be the more stable one without the profit lock(automatic that is).

Gotta say xmess7, you are on fire with these updates and I've enjoyed this thread and strategy since it was created. Everyone involved keep up the good work.

Hi,
I hope I am somewhat up to speed. I went through everything, but have to wait for the open. My trade omitted is showinging a lot of '9' and might go away when running.

Hello everyone
last week's chart for signals in my MT4. My basket got closed on Wednesday and I guess reason is my TP is on $500 instead of Pips. The only question in my mind is that why we get different signals even when we are in the same time zone like me and Forexpinbar !!!

Looks like an interesting system, thanks for sharing ForexPinbar and xmess7 for coding the EA and all other involved!
@xmess7 is it possible to add a trade comment in the EA? That way I believe we can test on one MT4 instance with multiple EA's running (with different magicnumbers offcourse) and see more easy from witch set the trades came, usable in the tradereport indicator for example.
I would like to run tests on the monday start time, with and without the basket take profit and on the basket and individual pairs.

Tiivaa my basket reached +420 pips I think at it's high point. But I set a SL +200 pips in profit and got stopped out.

Anyone that wants to keep track as well I have public trade explorer. Two are on my account, one weekly and one a daily strategy off ccfp. The picture is for the weekly one I was refering to in first sentence. Hopefully this helps others with there strategies too.

I still ask myself the same question why we get different signals...I think the coder of CCFp-Diff indicator will be in a better position to answer this question...Well done with your $500 target

Good to know that you are trading the Daily signals of CCFp too...i think you can get better results if you combine the CCFp weeky signals with your CCFp daily signals...For example , if CCFp daily signal for EUR/USD is SELL and CCFp weekly signal is also SELL , the go ahead and sell EUR/USD on that day..Just my 2 cents..Its ok to always try new things..

That might be a good strategy. I was trying to test daily and set a TP based on how many pairs were traded. For every pair target 20 pips per pair for the day. Repeat next morning. Going to continue to see how it goes next week.

To clarify my daily strategy. Example 4 pairs traded and opened. TP is 80 pips for the basket. Once 80 pips profit combined close all positions.

There are 2 important aspects :

1/ The difference in datas between brokers/servers

2/ The period starting time when timeframes H4 and above are used.
