I only had two trades this morning and yes the minutes part was ignored by ea. I am assuming their were only two valid trades but haven't looked closely enough as had to leave for work

Steve - I think:

Code: Select all

 int h = TimeHour(TimeLocal() );
      int m = TimeMinute(TimeLocal() );
      if (h != BasketSendHour) BasketSent = false;
      if (h == BasketSendHour)
      {
         if (m != BasketSendMinute)
         {
            ReadTable();
            LookForTradingOpportunities();
         }
      }//if (m != BasketSendMinute)
Should read:

Code: Select all

 int h = TimeHour(TimeLocal() );
      int m = TimeMinute(TimeLocal() );
      if (h != BasketSendHour) BasketSent = false;
      if (h == BasketSendHour)
      {
         if (m == BasketSendMinute)
         {
            ReadTable();
            LookForTradingOpportunities();
         }
      }//if (m == BasketSendMinute)

I had a basket of 4 sells-CADJPY,CHFJPY,EURJPY,GPPJPY.Adaptive TP 20.Adaptive JS-9.
Enter- London open.Basket was closed at profit in 50 minutes.
It seems to me that adaptive JS works no properly.

I had an adaptive JS set as well, and I got closed out in profit after about the same 50 minutes. I was so confused as to what was going on by then I was glad to get out ahead.

Why confused? The criteria were met on CHFJPY, EURJPY and GBPJPY.

According to the slope display indicator, there should be 10 shorts and 2 longs today. That people had only 3 or 4 trades or 1, as in my case, indicates that something is wrong.
I don't know yet what exactly that may be.
I found out that there are also a lot of problems with the correct historical data in my demo account.
This could also be a cause why some currencies were not triggered today.

.....not quite. It seems to me that e.g. USDCHF also meet all the criteria for a buy and did not trigger!

Because I had just woken up, the 3 trades I thought were still running overnight had actually been stopped out, and I hadn't expected there to be new trades as the Shelley start time hadn't yet been reached.

The slope also has to be in agreement with the WOH 2x1. I had 3 tests running at different times - one opened 3 trades, one 4 and one 5 - all were correct.
