Hi Guys
U will notice that I have kept my trades open going into Nfp... this in not something I would normally do on my live account but there is something I wanted to check and that is the ea's ability to recover from a bad trade by measuring a strong symbol against a weak one.
Well the scenario is this, Nu was opened earlier before the news announcement and we all know that trading before Nfp is a gamble...well so it turned out to be with Nu turning into the red minus 100 pips but this is the good part...Mad realized that strengths and weaknesses changed after the news announcement and immediately open au and AJ and took me out of my trouble....So thumbs up for the robust test
Things to do next week:
- I must tweak my trading times to trade London open and go two hours into the London session.
- price usually retraces towards New York so I will tweak my settings to reopen mad trades after New York open and once again let it trade 2 hours into New York.. All this thanks to Nanningbob
- must start working on a decent money management strategy...ie do I go from jump stops to atr trading on Steve's MPTM...will play around next week.
I do know that trading 21 and 60Lwma up to 1hr will have its flaws but will go with this for intraday trading for now.....there are some other longer term strategies which I have in mind but will get to it later,
Anyway Tc

Nice results!
I wish we can multiple entry if the conditions are right.
The entrys on the opposite candle close. If the condition changes, cross back, all trades are close.
All coustomizable. Max trades for pair, max trades for the whole.
Plus: Make selectable for TF make the entrys and TF who show if we exit.
Example: Trades on M5 taken and if on M30 the condition is changing, all trades closing.
Hope you get what i mean.

Why am I not surprised ... You have the 'Close Trades (true/false)' flag set to false. If you are not employing the EA to close trades (with the currently limited exit rules it is using), you need to close trades manually, or with another trade manager.bazze » Sat Feb 06, 2016 2:41 am wrote:I have set the BasketTP to 750, but when the sum of the trades is 750, or lower, the trades are still open?
