The EA just needs to be on a chart, doesn't matter which FX pair it is. Look at the EA inputs and you can see it trades lots of pairs. It's a multi-pair trader.

Hi,

The local time in SG (GMT +8) for New York open is 2000hrs. So for the input parameters we have:

TradingHour = 20
BreakEvenStartHour = 22
AutomaticCloseHour = 24 <- ??

Thanks and Regards
Fk

All my baskets were closed at breakeven today. Slippage resulted in an insignificant loss every time.

Newcomers struggling with all this, I have used post 2 to explain the concept of 'basket trading' and why the opening of the New York session is so important. This does not mean that Scalpy cannot work at other times of the day - just the one I am working with.

Hi,
playing with settings I am trying to choose pairs.....
I am a great fan of Currency Slope Strenght,
so I am choosing two best positive currencies and weakest one.....
Crossing pairs I set Scalpy only for those pairs
reducing my TP target to 60 and relative CashUnitPerPair to 6.....
I think may be some trend more clear help to get the basket full.....
Today I had three sessions from asians and London morning time,
attached what happened..

Coincidence? Looking at Steve's trading account, it is mostly sells the last few days, but before that a mixed bag.

EDIT: my demo accounts have also been sells today and yesterday.
All times are UTC Page 3 of 31
