Good idea Kevin, how did this work out for you?

The exit settings were wrong so it didnt exit the trade correctly and now the market has turned.
But the entry seemed very good and it was up quite a bit. I will analyze it tonight.

I think I will set up two demos on monday with the following entry method:
Demo1:
15M -> Use CSS cross (like the current setting)
1H -> Use CSSDiff
4H -> Use CSSDiff
Demo2:
15M -> Use HGI trend (Big arrows)
1H -> Use CSSDiff
4H -> Use CSSDiff

Hi!
There was also a bug in the Exit_CSS (Delta, Diff, Cross) settings concerning Weighsymbols set to false.
It is now corrected and I will soon post a new version.
So stay tuned...

With my CSSDiff set file it, if I understand it correctly then at the close of every M15 candle the EA will open trades on any pairs where all 3 CSSdiff are the same i.e. above or below 0. When I test this next week I will be just using the session times so at the beginning of a session it will hopefully open trades on any pair where M15, H1 and H4 are aligned and keep checking every 15mins for any more.. this set file will open a LOT of trades and should capture the momentum at each session open really well. This approach may work better with a basket close and is then closer to what Zennor and Gertje were trying originally rather than waiting for M15 Diff to close opposite but either/or could also work well because any losers will be cut fairly quickly and the winners will run.

In fact when I just tried it now on all pairs I get lovely instant profit... and at this time on a Friday that's like lucky dip but it's fun

Hi!
It sounds great. I just want to note that the setfile on CSSDiff is using TradingHours, not SessionTime.
So in case you want to run as TJF then you have to adjust the corresponding setting and also when the sessions start and stop according to your local time.
Happy testing!
Mathias

Hi

I will test the following next week:

Demo1:
Entry:
15M -> Use CSS cross (like the current setting)
1H -> Use CSSDiff
4H -> Use CSSDiff
Exit:
15M -> HGI wavys and Big arrows

Demo2:
Entry:
15M -> Use HGI trend (Big arrows)
1H -> Use CSSDiff
4H -> Use CSSDiff
Exit:
15M -> HGI wavys and Big arrows

I would also like to use a safety stop of ie 200.
In regards to this, Mathias, I try to set the SL in the ea but keep getting the message "You need to set SL < 0"
I have tried different syntaxes like 200.0, 0.200, but getting that message all the time?

Attached is my setfiles
