My data feed is from server Cowboy IBFX-Empty4-06
My broker Cowboy Go Markets(Europe),available 26pairs,I run it exept SGDUSD.History data in order.
I am running live with v1b but do not like its MPTM.Watch v1d and if it behaves well with your set,
next week go to live.I am interested if somebody use Ltf for Slope .I have no success with it but will
continue experimenting.Thanks again.

You could also try running MPTM on a different chart.

I also close the basket manually if I have good profit and if not, just let it ride until next best time to TP. Remember to turn off EA's before closing basket and restart after next 4 hr candle.

Best time to TP:

2-3 hrs into JPY session
1-2 hrs before US session
3-4 hrs into US session
2 hrs before JPY session

Thanks fxshadow, i find your inputs here very valuable.

Since you have the gut to run this thing live I was wondering whether you had identified the market conditions in which this bot with lose money. Before to go live I usually like to know the weaknesses of the bot so I know what I am up against. Will post my results here too as soon as I am back from some well deserved holidays :)

Again, great posts, keep them coming please.

Look at this indi,it gives signals more often and more reliable.

Just catching up on the thread.

Harry, this indicator looks good, but the indicator fudges things slightly. If it identifies a sell signal, on a down bar, the signal is valid at the close. However it puts the marker at the high. For a buy it puts the marker at the low.

If you use this indi with great trend indies by Baluda and Neo ,you can jump in trade after pullback in
time.The "0"(current) bar needs confirmation.There are no reliable indies indicating trade signal on current bar(decision can be made after bar closes).

I haven't had any loses yet and I only expect it to get better when volume picks up. I don't trade the first couple of hours of the weekly open or open any new trades on Friday. There will be loses, but it looks good for the odds being in the bots favor. Thanks to Steve and Chong.

Post subject:  Interesting.......
I have been trading FS since the monday on 36 pairs.

So far it has opened 3 trades- USDDKK, USDCHF, EURUSD........ They look promising and I will try to keep the thread updated with my findings.

Looking good just have to wait to get out of this ranging market. Since I am able to trade so many pairs I should have a LOT to keep the thread update with....

Luck to all.
