Hey TJF. Some great potential here. Is your lot size calc correct in this one? I believe it is default. I had this and got a margin call.

Cheers

Well seems ok for now.. just closed first basket (bit late because i didnt have basket close = true! So need to change that in the set file).

With CSSdelta as a filter as well as Diff I dont expect more than 10trades at any time. Will let it run and see.

Sweet. Makes sense. If you hit target like today's Asian session do you let the EA continue with opening a new basket or do you think one basket per session?

There is an hour left until the 3 hour window is up and I have a second basket up and running. Just wondering how to let this play. It would be the same decision if the first basket was still open and the window was coming to a close. I assume we just leave it running. My concern is that this approach will leave 5 hours with any open trades bobbing on the water before the London session. If there are any big moves against these trades then they won't be hedged.

Mathais, is there an option to shut down the EA for x hours after a successful basket closure? e.g If we have a successful Sydney/Asian basket it will shut down the EA from trading for say 8 hours. The EA will then be raring to go again for the London Open. On the other hand if it doesn't reach TP/SL it will remain open and trading as long as it takes to close one way or the other.
