My pleasure Angel - suggest however that you look at Steve's MPTM as it also provides catastrophic loss closure (I am still struggling with finding the right amount though)....

I traded like an idiot yesterday - I am too greedy - could have closed my position three times for +8% but held out for more..... At US open I was down 8% but as it was triple swap day, I followed Brian's idea, left it open and closed it this morning for +10% - luck.... and I shouldn't have done this!

Would you mind to post a screen shot showing how you target HH / LL swings please - I don't understand this

Cheers

Mop

Bonjour Mop,

By HH/LL swings I mean :

In the LONG trend, RESISTANCES breaked become SUPPORTS
In the SHORT trend, SUPPORTS breaked become RESISTANCES

Vey busy now, but try to post a screen shot showing HH/LL target......................

Last question regarding your "take profit" EA, should I drag and drop on EACH chart pairs which corresponds to open trades in order to close ALL the basket once the profit amount is reached ?

I would like that this EA closes ALL my open trades at once when the TOTAL of the profit, for example 2% of the balance is reached.

My best to you,

Cheers,

Angel


PS : Like children, we're too much greedy :lol:

Salut Angel,

1. Ahhh.... Supply & Demand..... If you haven't seen this yet, worth a visit http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=16&t=326
2. The EA from previous post of mine only needs to be attached to one chart but only gives a monetary close target, eg 300 units of deposit currency
3. Please go to http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... ?f=21&t=64 and download Steve's monster manager, this will allow for anything you want (only attach to one chart as well). It will need some tinkering by you though as there are a gazillion options.
Or you ask celte http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 8021#p8021 for his/her settings

Cheers & have a nice weekend

Can someone clarify if it's possible to make the whole indi box any other colour than black? Like in this pic: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... hp?id=2806

BoxClr doesn't do pretty much nothing for me...

I switched to a little square just to move the text around in the later versions of the indicator. If you change this line:

Code: Select all

      ObjectCreate(LabelName, OBJ_LABEL, 0, 0, 0); ObjectSetText(LabelName,CharToStr(111),14,"Wingdings",BoxClr); ObjectSet(LabelName, OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, SavedResultsBoxX+0); ObjectSet(LabelName, OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, SavedResultsBoxY+0); ObjectSet(LabelName,OBJPROP_BACK,0);
to

Code: Select all

      ObjectCreate(LabelName, OBJ_LABEL, 0, 0, 0); ObjectSetText(LabelName,"g",250,"Webdings",BoxClr); ObjectSet(LabelName, OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, SavedResultsBoxX+0); ObjectSet(LabelName, OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, SavedResultsBoxY+0); ObjectSet(LabelName,OBJPROP_BACK,0);
You should get what you want. I don't know if all the text possibilities will still fit on the background, but you can play with the font size value until you are happy (it's 250 right now).

Hi George, and the crew, i just wanted to drop a message to say thanks for your effort,and sharing of your pitbull indicator. I find it very useful when trading pitbull style. I have one request for its improvement, i hope it is not too much to ask. Similar to the color option, i think it would be super if someone can include a sound/popup alert option for when a pair meets, the "highlightpipsmove" input. I think this will help us limit screen time......... Cheers

Hi, and thank you for sharing this great indicator :D

Sorry to bother you but I wonder if you could modify your indicator to show the value of the net profit or loss over the lookback time period selected.

I'm interested in T101 Basket trading and it seems to be that this could be a v.useful main trend indicator for the fourteen pairs that are traded.

EG if the time frame was set to 15M then the indicator would report the net Profit or Loss at each bar close for the net basket position within the selected lookback period and draw the result as a graph in an indicator window

Many thanks in anticipation of your help and assistance :ugeek:
