You cant track your pips. you have to track them on real time, each 4 hours lets say.
This is not an automatic tracking system. For the moment it's manual ..
Sorry if It's not as you thaught.

hi guys, just to give my findings so far - I am experimenting with opening a basket of trades with individual stop loss and take profits of 150 and 300 respectively. I opened all my trades manually at 9am GMT on Monday so an hour after the London open. I prefer this angle as trading without a stop loss on a basket of trades seems a little scary in light of recent events such as the CHK incident and the GBP flash crash - in light of this I have also disabled all GBP and CHF pairs on the indicator. The GBP pairs are also more volatile so it makes...
Hi Xmess, thank you for your excellent work in developing this EA! I already have version 15 installed and it seems to be working fine!
I would like to ask you if it is possible to add an option to calculate the quantity of lots in relation to the risk that I choose. 1%, 2%, .....?
Another question, in v15 if 00:00 is GMT and London opens at 08:00 GMT if I want you to open the basket at the same time I must enter 08:00, right?

Success to all!!!!

Hello FerruFx, what is the purpose of the "Timer Timeframe" on your CCFp-Diff indi please?
Its purpose is to count down the time left for the current candle on that specific timeframe.

Seems that prices don't go in one direction over 5 days. We have down/up, up/down, or some variation. Maybe 5 days is the not the optimal timeframe to hold the basket even though we're using the weekly currency strength meter.

{quote} Hello FXPB, For your information I have included a snapshot of a basket still running from Monday. This one was opened at 08:00 GMT but used a D1 time-frame not W1 and it's been in and out of profit all week. What I find curious and am unable to understand is the amount of margin used for these 8 trades, the other Global Prime demo account, same parameters as this one, reports margin used as one would expect. This is not necessarily a CCFp issue but if anyone has any bright ideas I would love to hear them. {image}
Merlyn: Don't quite understand your question. According to the image your margin used per trade is about $1.75. Which probably means you 1000:1 leverage, maybe. I don't see why that would be a concern? Please elaborate. thnx Jess

Hi guys, positions opened yesterday, is 500 pips gain but don't close positions automatically. Have you any idea? Thank you. Leonardo {image}
toscano more than likely you may be having issues with the broker not accepting the request to close all trades. The function tries to close all trades in one swoop and that may be too fast for the brokers requirements. Please send me your log files. you will find then in two folders. Both folders are called logs. First folder is in your main MT4 directory where terminal.exe is. The second folder is under the folder MQL4. Once u get into those logs folders look for the file with the date that the basket was supposed to be closed.

Catsun: Great idea of removing the GBP pairs. Use version 15. That keeps count of the correct pips.

Hello Jess,

Thanks for the reply. $14.45 seems low for 8 open trades especially as 4 open trades on the other GP demo account require $40.85. Leverage is 500:1 on both. No biggie, just curious.

{quote} Hello Jess, This is an interesting, if not totally unexpected, development . May I ask why you have chosen to go down this particular route?
Merlyn:

If you are referring to why I use the DLL to create buttons, it's cause it was faster for me to develop buttons/menus/text boxes onto a chart.
I know now that we can use MT4 to create them, but I have not made the time to figure it out. so I stick to something that I already
have the tools in place to create interfaces quickly.
Now if you are worried about the DLL, do not be. I have used these for many years and have not had any problems. you can consult
the vendor, the are reputable. Besides DLLs are not evil LOL. I have written them too. For example I created my own
trade copier (it's fast LOL very fast) and it contains 2 DLLs that I compiled from source. So not to worry and it's fast..

Hordack; Waaay ahead of you LOl I already have version 16 that calculates the lots based on risk. LOL. I am just waiting to make sure that 15 works. And from what I see I don't like what the button is doing. So in v16 I am going to move the button so it will not be in the way of the display.

That is correct. If I tell you to open your basket at GMT 7 AM then you set the GMTopenHour to 07:00. As well if I say you close the basket at GMT 4:30pm you enter 16:30 for GMTOpenHour. So GMT is GMT. The EA will auto calculate the equivalent of your broker. you can verify the calculation by looking at the difference between the GMT hour and Broker Hour on the Display. I left that their so folks could verified that the difference is correct.

I closed now my trades opened on Monday at London Opening. The attached graph show the fluctuation that I noted during the last 3 days. We need a good risk management in order to turn the loss to a profit. I closed it manually at a profit of 800 pip. Maybe the system will make more pips but i think it's a good result till now. Happy green trading pips to all of you. {image}
mfawaz you are right on track. What we want to do is determine the average moves in the positce direction and the negative. This will take a couple of weeks if not months to get good numbers. once we have those numbers then we also record the hours in which the best and worse happened. now we can gauge not only how much to get as profit but when and not only when to get out with a smaller loss but also more or less when. The when we can correlate to News events as well.

I'll automate the pip entry for ya. I have code that sends info to excel so I'll just send the pip count to the excel file u provided every 4hrs right? Stay tuned as soon as I get home I'll get it ready and send ya the EA or indicator...

[Quote = xmess7; 9.587.032] {quote} Merlyn: Se lei si riferisce al motivo per cui io uso la DLL per creare pulsanti, è perché era più veloce di me di sviluppare pulsanti / menù / caselle di testo su un grafico. Ora so che possiamo utilizzare per creare MT4 loro, ma non ho fatto il tempo per capirlo. quindi mi attengo a qualcosa che ho già gli strumenti in atto per creare interfacce rapidamente. Ora, se siete preoccupati per la DLL, non essere. Ho usato questi per molti anni e non ho avuto alcun problema. è possibile consultare il venditore, la reputazione sono. Oltre DLL non sono LOL male. Io li ho scritto troppo. Per esempio ho creato il mio copiatrice commercio (è LOL veloce molto veloce) e contiene 2 DLL che ho compilato dai sorgenti. Quindi non preoccuparsi ed è veloce ..

I believe there could be problems if we need the DDL to operate the EA. I use the MT4 VPS and these do not allow DDL
