OK, so after some useful posts above and some research, I understand it better:
- CCFp parameters False/False in the CCFP-diff by default are NOT matching the default set in original CCFp (https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/1464) which states that Use_Current should be True by default;
- As soon as I switch from False to True, my signals get reverted;
- If I had traded them yesterday, I would get +700 pips by today's morning
- But this is only because we really had a strong reversion on Monday. If there were a continuation of last week's trend, there would be a loss with True setting, and win with False one;
- Some months ago I found a strategy based on fact that Monday move often defines the move for the week, so you should enter on Tuesday morning in Monday's direction;
- Conclusion: it would be interesting to see how often a Monday move is a reversal (e.g. opposite of previous week's move). If it's more than 50%, then Use_Current=True is better setting. Otherwise, Use_Current=False is better.

Goal of a successful trader is to make the best trades. Money is secondary
It seems like many of you love the setting TF and FF. Of course, Timing is another factor.
I currently focus only on this 2 setting. I am new into this system, however i test it in demo acc for 3 days already. For the first day, is eye opening to me where i use FF and 00:00 gmt and i got 500+ pips. No SL was set as i in testing.
Second which is yesterday, i lost a huge SL...which about -600SL in TF and FF 7.00gmt london op. setting.
Today is the third time i try with TF and FF, both at 7.00GMT (london op) setting as well. Currently running at 100+ pips for both TF and FF after struggling almost near to -200. After 4 hour they run, finally they turn into positive which is 1:1 rr.
I wan to ask everyone who in this trade, How long have you wait before until the pips run at your favor?
What timeframes in the chart u guys using , according to the rules M1, did you guys use other period before like H1 or it doest matter use whatever timeframe ?
Anyone can answer this.
Special thanks to fxpinbar and xmess for the invention. I would like to contribute in back test too! Sorry for my poor english. hope u guys understand.

xmess7, what you think about displaying those info on chart, as are very important, instead account margin/balance & equity?
