Peaky

Post by **SteveHopwood** » Sun Jun 18, 2017 7:50 pm

I just set Peaky and the DFC dashboard on my live trading account, in turn on my Beeks VPS.

Peaky has taken over my open trades seamlessly.

The dashboard has opened the charts and loaded my template impeccably. It closed down unnecessary charts. The one thing it did not do was open charts that have open trades but where the market has moved outside the close proximity area. I will look at this as some point. In the meantime, remember to open such charts manually and load Peaky onto them so she can take over managing the trades.

Leon, could you post some setfiles please?

I tried the Peaky on GBPJPY 15min chart, and so far it hadn't opened any trades at all, not sure what I'm doing wrong

Thanks

There is nothing to it. I have simply changed the OTB setttings trading timeframe of 1Hr to 15min. GbpJpy has not been in the sixths 15min trade zone since the 15th of june therefore no trades.

just like some traders I just started too (today this morning in fact) and i am leaving it to peaky to handle
otherwise i would hv no hair left having pull it all off trying to "hurry" peaky to trade
patience is virtue. I do think its a good idea if traders wanted to share settings
rite now its on ootb 1h on my GP demo w $10k

I would have started last week but my "experience" has shown that unless SH has decided to take a vacation to a remote island (without use of internet) coz he had now millions in his bank acct, he will find more bugs and even improvements faster than we can even say "hi"

(I believe that piano score took longer to play than the time for SH to improve an EA) :!!:

To those newbies, have fun and also some patience

Hi Alecsa the dashboard has most of the usual currency pairs listed, u can load up the dashboard and it will help a lot in getting u setup for many pairs to trade. It will also help u to load up each chart with EA + template that u can also customized

Pls rem to read SH user guide i was bit lost too at first but soon got it rite

Interesting that Leon had a higher profit on the 1 Hour TF than the 15 Minute TF.

I am already running Peaky live in one account on a 1 hr TF, but I will be setting up Peaky to run live in another account (stuck in USA - each TF is a different account) on the 15 min TF, but I am using 1,000 periods for Sixths (about 2 weeks of data), and I'm setting a different TP for each pair. I'm thinking that if you are trading on the 15 minute TF, a smaller Take Profit has a better chance of being hit than the 100 pips on the 1 hour TF.

For now I'm using 500% of the 15min ATR for 1000 periods, mostly because I can just leave my ATR in Pips indicator on the default 15 Minute chart set to 1000 periods and 5.0 multiplier and it shows me a quick number I can use as the TP.

AUDCHF, for example, on the 15 min. TF has a TP of just 30 pips on my charts, while GBPNZD has a TP of 92 pips. I'm attaching the indi in case it's of use to anyone else.

Happy trading!

Ehm, guys, I've been running tests on Peaky until 3 this morning, got up at 8 and kept at it. The new version (1h) creates an order along with its TP at the appropriate place and both then chases price like it robbed a bank, awesome. Once it's filled price either moves to TP or moves away and Peaky creates a new order that chases price until it's filled too. The problem is that that the second order's TP also follows along, I don't know if it is supposed to but it makes the Basket Recovery impossible.

My understanding is that the orders created after the first one should have the same TP as the first leaving the Basket Recovery to sort things out should price not reach TP.

Is the multiple TPs (say 100 pips apart) a better approach than all TP's the same and handling a stubborn market with a basket close?

Hi cozy, this is a great idea, how do i integrate into peaky? I hope i dont get booted, but from what i can roughly understand this is to allow u to set manually the appropriate TP when trading 15m? I have tried placing the indi its very useful. I believe using MPTM will allow me to set using ATR automatically if i will to trade 15m and wanted my profits into hands earlier.
