Nice work, this could be the benchmark for analysing this EA's performance. Thanks for your efforts. Will be fascinating to follow how it develops

I'm trying to find what pairs are best so set it up on 28 pairs on 1m charts. Broker is Global Prime and trading was 24 hours a day. Set file is a modded version of Leon's (Wavegarrick).
Below is the results broken down by hours and sessions. 2nd chart is how each currency went. At the moment the 4 hour overlap of London and New York looks a sure bet, but we'll see. Results are after all opened trades were closed.

I've been asked a couple of times to post my set file so here goes. You will need to change the "Inputs applied to individual days" as they are set for Australia.

Results for last week. Frustrating week but still came out ahead. Same set file. Broker is Global Prime and trading was 24 hours a day on 1m charts for .01 lots. Results are after all opened trades were closed. I stopped trading Friday 5 hours before NY close and closed all open trades 1 hour before close.
I initially traded 28 charts to see if it was possible to find what was the best pairs to trade. This week would have been much better except for GBPAUD. 6 Sell trades were opened on Monday and Tuesday and price took off North. They were closed on Friday for 2127 pips loss. If you were only trading say 4 pairs and one was GBPAUD it could of been disasterous. Maybe we should be looking at trading lots of charts so if a few go bad the others cover them. Time will tell. Of course you must have a much larger account to do this.

V 1c is in post 1, along with the updated user guide.
1c has the ability to treat all trades on the chart as members of a basket and close them at your designated profit target in either, or both, cash and pips.
--------------------------
It was my original intention to bring the multi-pair version over here once I was sure the code was correct but I have changed my mind. Some of you will like the multi-pair; others will prefer this one. Whichever it is, I suggest you keep your eye on both threads. A trading method that works on the single trader will work on the multi-trader and vice versa - they have the same trading logic.
