The only time I tried to use this was a long time ago and it didn't work - I must have put it in the wrong place. It is working now.

V 1n is in post 1, with the Experts button catered for; this is a late addition, just as I was about to post the update.

The guts of the update is for verb. Please read 'Using Shelley as a manual trade manager' in post 1.

:D
bouuh... i thought I will be in the spotlight :lol: Verb has the Guts ! bouuuuhhh

Hallo Steve,

I suppose we as users have to continue now with the S&G version ?

That is what I was wondering as well although I think that Gary's idea of managing the S&G trades not as a basket but instead as separate trades is genius ;)

I did a funny thing just in the last hour. I started up Shelley and she ran into a negative DD of - $50.
Then it began to retrace back towards 0 and at that moment I started up a second version of Shelly. The first one had 10 open trades and the second one only 3. probably because of Woh.
In the meantime these 3 ran into profit ( I use Cytek's settings, which are an adaptivePipsPofit=+15)
and they closed out for about + $12. The original basket in the meantime is now at + $4.

I am still using v1k as the updates were coming so quickly I couldn't keep up! Settings OOTB except for BasketSendHour = [London open] & ComeWhatMayCloseHour = 24. Closed all trades manually at 400 pips.

I started a new basket at US open: 7 pairs trading and currently fluctuating between 20 & 40 pips positive.

This is all on demo still but I'm trading 10.2 manually live. It's going rather well :lol:

Yep, 5 sells and 2 buys, now +150 as I type. This thing seems almost unbreakable. :shock:
