Its better to monitor each pair, looking for price nearing S/R pivots zones, TP when your inner voice tells u to. Its always 1bird in the hand better than 2 in the bush. I would close all trades by NFP. imho. |

Hansnl raises a good point. I think when a brand new basket opportunity appears after everything is ranging then you could hold that one right from the beginning. It depends how big your balls are. |

Yesterday that big basket of mine went over 800 pips, had to shutdown Empty4 this morning, got out at the 200 pips moved stop - need to understand the ShellyNOW settings better, any suggestions. Today basket closed at 200 pips, here is ShelleyNOW closing them, 3% gain. That's it for me tonight, tomorrow probably slow until US session & news come out, see ya'all. |

I'm working off a 0.5 slope strength, things are looking good though. Can I ask what peoples opinion regardnig major news is and their baskets - do they take the risk and place a pair in that might be affected??? |

So what we gonna do with NFP staying in or get the hell out before the shit hit the fan ?? any advice welcome.. Hans..[/quote] I would close all trades by NFP. imho. Kelisa thank's for you response ,I probably have to do that, because to change or remove my SL's I have to take ShellyJem of the chart and tread every trade individual. That will break the magic of the Basket trade , I will hold the basket for a while and will decide a few minute's before NFP. Hans.. |

I closed my basket - +125, several pairs hanging around pivots. Started this basket last night after a partial retrace, could have waited until before London open with much better entries. Still, very happy with the pips! This system is working out very well, thx guys! |

Up over 200 pips now. Since I didn't enter these on Shelly Now I moved them to BE manually. Now the dilemma is how far to let them run before closing. |
