I think there is a better approach available to this at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=5&t=1774

I have it loaded on my Cowboy IBFX play money account H4. No trades yet.

Have a look and see what you think. It allies CJ with catching the buy xxxJPY trades.

I have left the basket to run overnight.

The basket just before London open today and again at 8.39am. The bottom is after London open.

I have adapted the ea to buy above 240 LWMA H4 TF and sell below. My experience with this ea is that it works well as is on Daily tf but needs a filter on M15/M30.

An update at London close.

Well done, Steve. I am following your new ea with great interest.

When I have computer capacity, I would like to test your ea with stochs for pull back.

Mine is still running with a 20 pip trailing stop on each trade. 80 pips banked with one closed trade; c. 220 locked in the others.

Basket now closed after the retrace to the trailing stops. 340 pips in the bank and approx 5% on the balance.

Yummy.

Well done, Steve.

May many more green pips come your way !

They were pending trades that filled just above the previous high, so they filled at various times yesterday.

I took an M15 RRT EJ trade soon after the retrace took out my stops. I had to go out so I left it with a 20 pip trail, and returned to another 31 pips - 370 or so for today.

Unfortunately, the basket from yesterday ended at breakeven soon after London close. If it included only yen pairs, it would have been in profit.

I will launch a new basket at Tokyo open to-night with only yen pairs and update tomorrow.
