So total we should have banked 640 pips 23% missed profit

Quick hint for the templates users.
If like me you changed your EA magic number from the default 0 when you click on a pair the new chart open base on the MD H1.tpl supplied by Steve and the indicator "Position Monitoring Indicator basic" will not display any values see attachment.
At first I changed the indicator magic number but then remembered that the value is set by the template so you need to change the magic number in MD H1.tpl or MD D1.tpl at line 293 see attachments.
Might be obvious to most but it took me 15 min
Admins feel free to delete or move where appropriate.
Steve thanks for the new toy!

A quick note of sympathy here as I feel your pain. You are a victim of your own inquisitive mind. Most people go with defaults and hope for the best.1Direction » Fri May 22, 2020 11:17 am wrote: Might be obvious to most but it took me 15 min
The number of times I have finally spotted the entry-level-coding bloop in my code and screamed, "Why the &^%$ didn't I spot that bog-basic child-level error 17 hours ago?"
Hey ho.

By any chance was someone running the standard MD with TP and SL for last week. I would like to make a rough comparison with my results for the week, just to see if its working :hi:
Profit factor may be a good comparison
I am testing a brand new version next week with what I hope are some improvements.

This has Bodavid's idea of BE and JS in tandem with grid, for this week I have changed it to BE when 2nd trade is taken and jump at 20 pips as some were closed that then continued:
In comparison to the last three weeks above this has the basic settings but with basket stop loss:
Thanks to all here :hi:

I thought Steve had shut them down will take a lookSteveHopwood » Fri May 15, 2020 6:54 pm wrote: My no individual trade TP of nothing and only aiming for global basket TP's only demos have been a wipe out so I will shut them down this weekend. I will start two fresh demos at the same time: one with my defaults and one with much more conservative settings. Timing is sooooo important when trading, so this will be trading like with like. We shall see which comes out ahead in the long run.
Edit: Last trade 15/5/2020 so now shut down as expected
