Hello all,

I have been following this thread for 2 weeks now and read every single message! Really interesting thing going on here. I would really love to contribute in testing! Not sure what exactly I will be testing, but before I do so: thanks to Forexpinbar, xmess7 and all other highly active members! Great work!

I have one question for now: I have set up my chart with the help of the template provided by Forexpinbar. However, when using this template it is not possible for me to edit the settings of the indicator? Can anybody help me with that?

Change the option: Set_Basket_SL_TP_Targets_in (from pips to percent), and than just add 5 instead of 500 (for 5% instead of 500 pips) in the basket take profit and stoploss (don't forget your stoploss.. because loosing 500% is a lot!)

I set my TP at 7% and my SL at 5%. I haven't used v37 yet though. Waiting on the full release.

Please hope the atr SL and TP will be in this last or version . Also can the entry lots of each pair be dependent on the atr SL so that same risk will be for each pair even with different SL value from their respective atr . This will be great. Thanks anyway.
Know News/time; WAIT for Edge Entries, MPLC Normalization, Exits & TP's..

First set of results:

CCFP 10080 False/False
Daily Start @ 0700 GMT TP 150 SL -300

Gain Max Min
Monday: -318.3 +15.3 -318.3
Tuesday: +153.3 +153.3 -23.7
Wednesday: +150.0 +150.0 -256.6
Thursday: -301.3 +06.3 -301.3
Friday: +151.2 +151.2 -75.6

So roughly about -150 this week...

Ouch Bud. Been one of those sorta weeks for the weekly basket. Am still running with no SL or TP just out of curiosity and the fact that it is a demo account

Am gonna try v37 next week. But I agree with "It depends on when you get in". Also no one could have predicted that May would call a general election on Monday (yawn). A SL would have come in very handy on this weeks baskets. Well at least the Demo one. the live one is now quite close to BE but will let them both go to market close tonight

End of week update. Rough week compared to previous ones but I was experimenting with different settings on multiple EAs. On Monday I will start with what I think are the best settings and strategy for me for the daily approach to this system and will update my trade explorer to follow at that point and keep track of my resuts. What I have learned is that TP and profit lock are very valuable tools to the EA. Without those, a manual exit with a plan will go a long way as well. At one point this week, I was up 693 pips. With a Conservative TP of 100-150, I could have ended the week with approximately 400-600 pips. With a well timed exit, which is hard for me with a full time job, I could have bagged 400-1000 depending on the system I had in place.

With today's positive results, I ended the week 27 pips. Horrible by typical results for this system BUT still a positive result. Was a great learning week for me. This is such a great system and has many, many ways to be utilized with many different variations. This is something that is so simple yet can be customized to each individual trader. Great job guys.

Is anyone else having problems using the "close all trades" button? It acts like it is working and then it opens all my trades right back up. I am trying both buttons but they are not working. Anyone else having similar issues? I'm assuming it's operator error since I was having the same issue with v36.3. I downloaded v37 last night but i'm still having the same issue.

Not with the button.. but when my basket reached its stoploss.. I experienced the same problem; it closed all trades, but opened new ones straight after! Already send a PM to our EA master

Same problem here. My basket reached my 3% profit in just over 1 hr today and hit my TP. Now there is less chance that it's operator error. LOL

Same here. I closed my trades manually, but it opened new trades right after. I had to reset the ccfp mtf indicator to make the manual close trade stick.

Have a great weekend all!

folks:
Thnx for testing v37. I will try to update it this weekend to adress all the bugs u guys found, since i am at it i may even add the atr and % of balance risk... maybe cause the % of balance takes a little more time since we are dealing not with one but many lotsizes....

Stay tuned

Hi Folks,

Next Week is going to end, i refresh baskets for observation. State shortly before baskets close 19.00 GMT.
It was a tough week, but if we could observe results at the others, who is started on Tuesday or on Monday 00.00GMT, there are big differencies.
I take it from this week, that it wasn.t good idea start to open baskets on Easter Monday :-)
Nice weekend to all.

XX001: True, False
XX002: True, True
XX003: False, False
XX004: False, True

I think it's interesting to see all 4 settings of CCFp indi together, recomend this layout to the others.
See you min/max and actual pips during the runing period......

1. Open Monday at 7.00 GMT

Wow! Looks like False, True at 2851 pips blew the other settings out of the water.

Thanks for the post. My pip counts were inaccurate this week due to various issues, so I'l get a new start Monday.
