Che cosa succede se tutti i traffici questa settimana, quando +500 pips con 16 coppie di questa settimana? poi con un limite maxTrade si sarebbe di perso su questo.

Folks:
I found the error. I had forgot to set the point size per symbol when calculating the tp and sl. I was using the point size of the symbol in which the chart was open.
That cause ALOT of problems. What do I mean by point size?? Let me put it this way, I was basically using the stoploss and takeprofit of say EURUSD on every pair.
As you can imagine this caused alot of errors especially for the individual trades. The error would be detected and MT4 would close immediately the trade.

So far I have been able to test the basket and individual trades. Yes, you are seeing version 14 on the images below. I added some more inputs to help us diagnose problems I will explain when I post version 14.

Notice that each individual trade has it's own stop and take profit. they are set to 500 and 200 respectively. I also added the number of the trade in the comments section. That way you can easily count to verify that it is the same number as what the ccfp indicator asks for.

Now I am going to test the profit lock for the basket and for each individual trade... stay tuned.

Has anyone done any "basket analysis"? To see what pairs in your baskets are repeat offenders ("regular losers")? Just a thought.

Hello to all I'm out of the game this week, basket closed - 301 pips! Xmess7, can you explain to me why I'm seeing different signs in the screenshots that other members are uploading here? If you look at the screenshot of admir, the signals are totally different from mine, which are exactly the same as those of Forexpinbarx, Countingpips.

The orders were executed at 10:00 am from my broker which is 2 hours more than London time zone.
I know I do not always win and to prepare next week to see what happens! The only thing that leaves me a bit confused is that the signals are not the same for all and so we can arrive at a logical conclusion at least all the signals must be the same if we are all using the same indicator, right?

Xmess7 I have some ideas to share and see if are possible, I'm using google translate (sorry if there is something you do not understand). So I have clear what I want do I will share with you! Great work! Luck, everyone and share your ideas!

Sucess for all!!!!

No worries toscano, I have version 14 doing most of the things right now. It will stop automatically and it will do basket or individual trades.
Like I said it was a small error on my part. all I had to do was change a couple of words in the code and it is working so far.
I'll have version 14 posted before the day is over.

Guess what your signs agree with what I have. So when u say signs I assume u mean trade direction like Buy or Sell, correct??
Thank you for your help.

Thank you folks. some of you are real good at catching errors and explaining them. It really helps and makes it faster to fix bugs. Lol maybe I should have u guys come over to my projects to help... and make money LOL .

Anyhow... I am attaching version 14. I corrected the error. So far I have tested several things EXCEPT the ProfitLock. IF you guys could please test that and let me know if it works that would be greatly appreciated.

These are the testes I did on 2 different brokers:
1. Tested that all pairs called out by ccfp are loaded and trades opened.
2. Tested that take profit and stop are honored when the basket reaches either target.
3. Tested that the EA can load any symbol with suffixes.
4. Tested that the EA can set individual stop and take profits targets when the user sets the Set Target to Individual Trades.

New things that were added:
1. Added an input called PrintDebugInfo. This is optional. Set that to true and the Experts tab log EA activity so we can debug better

Forexpinbar: Please place this on page 1. remove version 13.
2. Changed default value of StartProfitLockAt to 0. This way when the EA is loaded it does not automatically go into ProfitLock mode. The user can select that later
(edit) 3. I forgot to mention. Version 14 has an input called MaxTradesAllowed. This limits the number of trades that will added to the basket.

I know that some of you had other issues. We'll deal with them if they appear again.

If I can suggest something....it would be very easy to stop out on -200 pips with 16 trades as opposed to let's say 8. Maybe we need to have an algorithm on how we calculate stop loss based on the number of trades...
Perhaps using percentage risk would help the basket to stay alive. For example have the EA risk 2% to gain 5%. or even risk 1% to gain 3%.
This could be done if the basket has a critical number.

I forgot to mention. Version 14 has an input called MaxTradesAllowed. This limits the number of trades that will added to the basket.

Ok. Here's my contribution for what it's worth.

The following script, when placed on a chart, will calculate the average Open/Close range of the candles in the chart for that time frame. It will also find the median value. Output is in pips. It will do this for the 28 pairs. Put it on a weekly chart, it'll calculate for weekly candles. Output is in a file named WeeklyRanges.csv. Easy to import into excel. I'm posting the script source code and the csv file I just ran against Oanda.

Folks:
I just noticed something about the profit targets being in pips vs %.

The pips that are monitored do not include the swap nor commission. The % values due include the swap and commission.
So when u see for example that the basket is up say 30 pips yet you see a negative profit total then just keep in mind that the delta has to do with the missing swap and commission. Fortunately we are targeting 500 pips so the $ profit will be positive.

Oh and many of you have said that you see the % change when trades are closed. That is just a delay. The EA gets the % before the display and when the trades need to be closed. they are closed before the display is updated.

What do you mean by "accurate" ? The CCFp is the original indicator I worked with to build the CCFp-Diff ... but I am not the author of this version. I just developped the dashboard (CCFp-Diff).

Hello everyone and special thanks to Forexpinbar
As I have mentioned before that we should open the basket at 9am GMT, yesterday I opened two basket , first one at 8 GMT at London Open and it stopped with 200$ (almost 240 Pips) in just one hour.
But the second one started at 9am GMT , right now it is on 400$ (almost 480 pips) and the highest was 442$ (530 pips)
