thanks for sharing....

If your time permits, could you pick one pair and take screenshots for steps 4, 6 and 7/8.

Would really appreciate that

Hi jboy,
There are stop loss in position but it's the way the EA has placed them, they are quite big distances apart though.
If you have a look at my last detailed statement you will see I think about 4 SL's have been hit.
But even on the days that the SL's have been hit the other pairs still made the basket TP for that day. and they still made a profit.
Regards

Here you go Nicastro,
but remember that all the brokers have different times that they trade, so make sure that you change the time in the EA.

Hi Jth, all,

Great summary of your system jth,
i hope to set this up on the week end time-permitting.
Just a quick note about the big stoplosses.

I'm sitting with a 'buy' on GBPUSD from today 9am time setting, it's plunging and would have hit that SL if i had left it, call me stupid, but i'm adamant the trend will change to go long. i manually changed to allow the trade to still succeed. i'm following the 10.2 and slowkeys manual trading screens to get my direction over 4hr and daytrend. starting to get sell signals, but i got rocks in my heaD.

The way i'm trading now, manually interefering, MIGHT be better for me, but it's still early days, and i have'nt been able to help my gross total at the end of the day so far this week.

Maybe i should just let it SL out of the picture , but the way i have started this, i'd like to see it through, Its just a phone call to the demo manager to get the account restarted.

just increased the SL for a second time while i typed this out.

regards and thanks again jth.
