{quote} Nice job Erebus :-)
NO, I didn't say that was live, just that it should be enough to convince most to give it a go, even with small lots
If I didn't have a lot of trades already open on live account, I might have run it today
Even the indicator helps so much with pair selection for manual trading!
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

I did like this:
- I was waiting a few minutes before EA start trades, and then I exclude manually - from CCFp-Diff indicator - all pairs that weren't confirm by Trend Indicator (that additional dashboard). When EA start trades, it opens just filtered pairs.
Do you know more practical/handy way? (although my way is not bad, I think).
Don't try to catch the profit. Reduce the risk and profit will come itself.

The 100 pip take profit works perfectly in the EA, thanks xmess7

Nice trades
I have been doing a similar thing on the daily (1440) setting ff + tf level 2. looking at the trend indicator but also with bill williams alligator on the chart. So I check each pair before ea starts to trade (9am gmt) look at the trend indicator and see if price is under or over the alligator. if all is in agreement they go in the basket if not in agreement chuck em out.
I have been trying 25 pips take profit and 25 pips stop loss per pair. so if for instance 8 pairs then 200 take profit and 200 stop loss. This does take a couple of hours and if it does not hit before NY open i have been closing manually. Nearly hits profit every time but i end up closing as I dont trust the sessions cross over. I see you are using 100 pip take profit which I would think hits pretty quickly. May I ask what stop loss you are using please.

Just a short comparison between today's filtered (with Trend indicator Dashboard) and nonfiltered setup.
According today's trades it seems it works. That's not guarantee that trades will end in profit (it's Friday today, and there is some chance I won't trade in Friday with this system in future, but will see - need some more testing), but it's obviously that filtered ones are much better (if you compare Max and Min values too).
I hope it's not just a random situation
P.S. Please ignore current list of pairs, because CCFp indicator change them sometimes (meanwhile).

I don't want to damage your enthusiam about filtering trades, friends, f.i. yesterday unfortunately I filtered out all good GBPNZD trade suggestions and a few more and got losses, today I did not filter any trades and got that on 10 different baskets:
I think it very much depends on the News data released during the day whether a specific currency pair remains weak or gets suddenly strong...
Happy trading, jdva

P.S. We use the same settings (one of my basket uses same settings as you have on the screenshot), but I start trading 10 minutes after LO. As I see, you start with Frankfurt open (one hour earlier).
