wBear,

Please check and confirm that a suffix appears for XAGUSD and XAUUSD when autoSymbols = true, preferably with a screenshot.

This is the first time I've seen criminal that has mixed suffixes.

Thank you,

Paul
Hi Paul,
The suffix does not appear when autoSymbols=true. Here is the screenshot attached.

It is only when manually entered into symbolsToTrade, it appears with the suffix. And if I enter "XAGUSD-" or "XAUUSD-" into symbolsToTrade, it'll appear as "XAGUSD--" and "XAUUSD--".

Thank you Paul, not a big issue compared to the rest as I do have a temporary workaround ;)

  • Fixed bug in limiting maximum trades per currency.
  • Renamed 'pivotmixed', 'pivotlong' and 'pivotshort' constants, only useful to coders.
  • Optimized take profit calculation.
  • Introduced NB 10.2a October Edition stoploss and takeprofit calculation.
Cheers,

Since MultiBob is already a multi-pair bot, I think all open trades can be considered as a "basket". I did some modifications to monitor the basket low's and high's and implemented a percentage trailing stop based on a combined "basket" (all open trades) profit. The first thing I realized was, that trades tend to turn into losers after being winners in the beginning (see pictures attached) and that drawdowns are usually the same as earlier gains!
My basket trailing is based on Risk or Lots and aims to go for a Risk:Reward Ration of 1:1. Since the entries are usually so good (thanks to Slope ;-) I monitored frequent basket closures with nice profits. Some testing needs to be done next week, but things look quite promising already.

Looking forward for your comments.

Cheers,
Andy
Andy,

I appreciate your thoughts and have had a similar idea. Look forward to seeing how you implement this and the results.
