Same as me! but check your h1 & h4 chart for the USDCAD. If I had checked my charts ahead of time as Jem suggested I would have did sa sell not a buy on USDCAD.

Mackaozy also has the USDCAD as a buy????

EVERYTHING is backwards!!!
GBPJPY & GBPUSD should have been a buy not a sell

STeeeeeve??
ex. : USDCAD D1 Slope = +0.9059
if we look at Steve indicator ( NB 10.2 EA ) the trade are correctly set up !
Yes - you are looking at the wrong thing traderduke. The EA (as with most of NB10.2) starts with the D1 TmaSlope > 0.8 or < -0.8, with WOH1x0 being in agreement - then ShelleyJem looks for a retrace from the TMA band on H1 and for price to hit the 5MA(1) on H4, heading back in the direction of the D1 indicated trend. So in USDCAD case - that would be long.

I had a think about % position sizing. I think if the inputs ask for:

Adaptive pips TP/STOP: eg 50 pips
% of account to TP/STOP: eg 2%

We would get scenarios like this:

$100,000 account & 10 basket trades waiting to trigger.
Adaptive pips TP/STOP: 50 pips (x10 basket trades = total of 500pips TP/STOP)
% of account to TP/STOP: 1% (TP @ $1000 / STOP @ $1000)
$1000 / 500 pips = lot size of $2/pip

$100,000 account & 5 basket trades waiting to trigger.
Adaptive pips TP/STOP: 50 pips (x5 basket trades = total of 250pips TP/STOP)
% of account to TP/STOP: 2% (TP @ $2000 / STOP @ $2000)
$2000 / 250 pips = lot size of $8/pip

I might be over simplifying so let me know if I got this right.
