Night trading: 6 pairs was opened, closed at morning at -120 pips adaptive stop loss. Looks like EA sholdn't trade during asian session, or make opposite trades. Will see.

Now 18 pairs are open, + 240 pips in the basket. Holding on...

update: closed with +215 pips by adaptive stop loss.

Hello,

18 pairs open, you must have, this switch set to false,
extern bool UseTradeOneCurrencyFilter = true;
or
extern int NumberToTrade = 2; <== Higher than 2.

There is no problem with 18 pairs. Only 2 closed at loss. Problems with night tradings - or too big retracement, or just wrong direction...

Mr Long,

thanks for your reply! appreciated!
yeah have u been trading this ea basket style for some time? a few months? has it been profitable?
i see that the basket settings that u use appear to be quite safe since it locks in 50pips when 150pips in profit. when we get whipsaws..will we see 5 or even 10 losing baskets in a row?

i like the ea cutting the losers with a stoploss and not using a tp with the winners since this allows the winners to really run hard until we hit the basket tp.

i have been away since wednesday the 19th so i didnt run it the last few days but the basket that was opened on tuesday the 18th could have hit maybe a thousand pips or more over 3days without the breakeven cos the gbp/nzd buy trade went up about 500pips...crazy man. i think a couple of the other pairs also went up 2-300pips so that could have been a 1-2000pip basket.

Hello quantraderjoe,

I've only been trading this EA a few weeks and it is looking quite good so far. I'm using the partial close function to keep banking as the profits roll and in the last 8 days has returned 8-9%. I did forget to set the trailing basket to 0 and had a basket close early.

I've added the hanover strength module to the EA, and will upload it after testing, the EA can trade with or without the module simply by turning the switch to false.

Best Regards
Andy

Hi, Andy, I'm new to Swing Trader, should I use OOTB or special set?

hello Vm9999,

bro have u been using adaptive tp/sl instead of the basket tp/sl ? do u use the 50/35 adaptive tp/sl or are u using different values?
have results been good?

i have only tried the ea on basket settings and my first basket was very good but it closed way way too early. i'm keen to try adaptive in the coming week to see the difference.

I have made lot of experiments, so my results now far from original EA results. I have tried to make opposite trading during night and Friday, because very big drawdown (usually basket was closed at basket StopLoss at this time). But results also not good. Now I have decided to make test with SL switched OFF. And, maybe basket TP also will be swithed OFF - I plan to close basket manually. After that I think I could calculate values for Adaptive TP.
