Corrrect. I will only use it to monitor Pending and Open trades. FXT-SPB-3 does not show pendings....

Yes, it is a shame. Maybe I will do something about it if this shows some legs.

Sorry, but what does "it only reacts to opposite signals" means? From the setfiles, I see only Pending Orders are deleted but not Open Orders. If the 92000 pips were completely hands off, what will happen with opposite signals with this setup?

Thanks Tomele
I will set it up on the weekend as well and send the results to the database.

"it only reacts to opposite signals" means that it closes all trades and enters trades in the new direction as soon as both signals (Peaky and SuperSlope) agree. The inputs you mention are in the SuperSlope section and control what happens when only SuperSlope turns around.

Dear Thomas

I too have setup FXT-SPB-3 on both a GP and ICMarkets Empty4 demo with a healthy $10000 balance

I also have TDesk running to monitor trades

I did note however that both Empty4 terminals are limited to 40 pendings.

This means that only the top eight valid pairs are filled (see TDesk)

Is this correct or should all Pairs be filled? Not sure if its a Broker limit or Lot limit

Thanks as always Richard
Edit. All pairs are starting to fill now after market opened. Sorry
Hi Richard.

No worry. SPB3 doesn't send market trades, but a grid of pendings. It can take a while for the first trade to get triggered after the signals give a "go".

Cheers
Thomas
