New to the thread, love it and thanks to all of you!

Had 12 baskets set up all open at GMT 7:10 am. They went into more than 1700 pips deficit within the first hour. But 2 hours later it has erased the massive loss and gone into positive with about 100- 200 pips gain (changing). This makes me wonder about the 7:10 open time. If I had set them to open after 8 GMT this would have been very different picture. I also ran into FIFO trouble it prevented the EA from opening some of the trades I am sure EA will have trouble closing trades, too so this will not work. I will set up new demo tomorrow with a broker with no FIFO restrictions and try different open time. Looking forward to it...

Hi mamabear:

Please explain the issue of trades not opening due to FIFO.

As far as closing trades under FIFO, the EA will not be able to close trades from a particular basket IF there are other baskets that have opened those pairs previously.

In MulitBasket mode the EA is able to overcome the FIFO rule when closing all baskets. IT does this by looping thru all trades to close them. As long as there are open trades the EA will continue to try to close each trade. Those that are not closed at first due to the FIFO rule is skipped but since the EA keeps trying until there are 0 trades, it eventually gets hit again and is closed.

Hi Dude,

On previous versions there was an issue at some brokers, where sometimes baskets wasn't opened without reason.
It was very important mainly when you open multiple baskets (10+) at once.
Normally half of baskets wasn't opened without reason.

Now is ok :-)

Hope it is clear........

P.S. I am not trying 37.7.3 - last i used 37.7.2.

Quite true firewight, I'm still testing this strategy and I'm looking for consistency like others said too. I started last week and missed a few days trading due to EA not firing, bank holidays, etc. Screenshot of spreadsheet below, I'll continue posting results on this one. There are the daily graphs in the spreadsheet below for reference.

Anyone seen this, the trades are opened and then immediately closed. Not sure if it is the EA but only started after last update. Maybe just me but I reset the EA every day and restart the platform. This is the 3rd day it happened.

Yes please help what did I do wrong? The EA tried to close some trades this morning but couldn't, This is one of the messages. I got pages full of them because the EA keeps trying to close them. (Last night I got the trades could not be opened message). I just clicked close all trades got more "trades can not be closed" messages.

Problem with ranging market (70% of the time) .
I have a basket open since Monday morning going between -300 and +200 on session opens, session midways, session ends.
If a basket is opened you have to consider the ADR or ATR of each pair to set a realistic take profit especially if the pairs are not trending.

I do hope you do it the right way because in the wrong way it can become messy real soon with one EA closing the trades and another keeps trying to open them in the mean time

I take it back, I think I was wrong about the trades not opened issue because I was half asleep when the messages of incoming mail woke me up I just assumed it couldn't open trades because it was right about open time. It could have been some baskets went into big losses right away the EA tried to close them and couldn't. yea I think that was it.
