I was thinking a bit complex a system to check the openings. Yesterday I tested for 4 hours which are the best data to be processed. the idea to use the data to 1 minute perhaps when 'difficult, for each cross are more than 1 million rows (from 01.01.2014 to 10.28.2016 around), in the file there would be a series of features that bring the file to weigh 129 Gb. I want to add up all the H values and all the values of all L weekly indicator cross with the rule of Buy and Sell at the same time. So I create two parallel lines in the graph of profit...

{quote} For me this means taking a significant portion of my positions off at the predefined TP levels, but that will also allow me to leave a small portion to run for the stars if the market keeps going.
This is mentally difficult, but critical to follow for some systems. I find myself gravitating to lower win-rate trades, scaling in and out, and letting winners run and run.

{quote} Thank you very much sir for such clear steps! Just one small question, I see we have EA version 18.1 and also V29 on the creator external website, what should I use? Also, I saw we must clear the global parameters before using the EA every week and understood we must clear every field named with the prefix "xm_7", is this correct?
Use version 18.1 since V29 is a Beta version with different features.

GREEN pips my friend.

ajs5274 , I am still trying to figure out how to perform a backtest in your modified Excel by Tivaa but all efforts have proved futile even after reading your Weekly CCfp data input manual several times...I hope its not too much to ask for a video tutorial on how to backtest the CCfp weekly signals in your modified Excel for the sake of newbies like myself and other newbies out there who are new to backtesting in Excel.I think the video tutorial will be more clear to understand if you use Smoothtrader's downloaded historical data https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...75#post9644375 from dukascopy since that is what I suppose we will all be using from now onwards.I will be very glad if you consider my request..Thank you in advance..

Open the file and select the tab/sheet called "Data" (bottom left). Here is where you have to paste the data, you have 2 columns for every pair covering the 120 1H candles of 1 week. One column is for the High values and one for the Low values, paste in the proper column the ones you need to test. Don't worry about all the other columns even if there are numbers inside.

When you have pasted all the data move to the sheet named "Chart" and focus on the table that starts from the cell D86. Here you can make "appear" the data you need. For every pair you have 2 columns like in the previous sheet.

For example the first 2 columns are UCHF High and UCHF low. If you want to see the values in the High column you have to input the letter "s" in the corresponding colored cell (D86). To see the data in the Low column instead you have to input the letter "b" in the colored cell (E86). To make the data equal to zero the cell must be empty.

Hope this helps

this is probably a really dumb question but could some one explain how the dash fibo V1 works - as in how does it calculate the signals it is giving - there is probably a post or pdf explaining this somewhere. could someone point me to it?

Hi all

Was reading the Thread a while and started Monday with a basked, was running well so far, up to 1000 Pips, but then the EA showed at "Basket Pip Gain= 0,00".
Is this normal? Does it count only up to 1000? After that I closed the Basket. Did I miss something?

Did you have a TP of 1000 pips? It appears as if your trades closed.

Just my observation, xmess7 would know more and you can PM him.

Nice test week for you Good Sir. Here's hope there are many weeks like this one in the future.

{quote} Hi raffus. v18.1 already handles multiple baskets. It will also handle a pipcount logfile for each basket as well. All u need todo is create new baskets with different magic nunbers. Pls PM me any issues u may find. Folks: please download v18.1 again. I found a minor bug that is in all versions. The bug might affect your MT4 and freeze it. So v18.1 on pg 1 was updated with fix. v14.1 is being phased out. U can still use it but u just be aware that the time inputs will correspond to yer broker hours and that it will not have features of latest...

Hi xmwss7

18.1 not working for me. not opening trades. why?

Kezz:
You do not need to clear the global variables each week. The EA does that for you. The only reason you need to clean the globals is if u are testing or just want to open a NEW basket during the week. Basically you are resetting the EA to start all over... and that can be done during the week, instead of waiting for next week to come.

Think about it, if the EA can detect the pairs from the CCFP and make trades, and keep count of the pips, and close the baskets, etc etc all automatic... Why can't it erase some simple globals for you? LOL


Folks:
Use v18.1 This is the stable version.
Only use v29 if you want to help out with debugging. If you do decide to help, please PM me with any problem you find.
Or for that matter, anything to do with the EA PM me. This way we keep the EA activity off the thread so folks can concentrate on the approach.

We are very close to having a bug free EA..

Ok, I am off to answer all your PMs
