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

Re: Shelley's multi-pair basket trader
Thank you Vivaldi. I set my AdaptivePipsTakeProfit to 25 with 6 trades open and closed out with 195 pips. Shouldn't my basket closed out at 150 pips?vivaldi wrote:Kenboi wrote:I have a question regarding AdaptivePipsTakeProfit vs PipsTakeProfit. If I set the AdaptivePipsTakeProfit, do I need to set the PipsTakeProfit? I set my AdaptivePipsTakeProfit to 25 and PipsTakeProfit to 200. At the moment, I am having 6 trades open. If I am correct, based on my setting on both, 25*6=150 and PipsTakePRofit=200, then my close profit would be whichever comes first, which is 150 pips, right? Do they work independently or dependently? Thanks.
AdaptivePipsTakeProfit overwrites the value of PipsTakeProfit :
if (AdaptivePipsTakeProfit > 0) PipsTakeProfit = AdaptivePipsTakeProfit * OpenTrades;

Re: Shelley's multi-pair basket trader
2nd basket auto-closed for +292, so nearly +700 pips for the day. Not too shabby.

Yep, but sooner or later we will be in the middle of a reverse. The question is how and when must we exit?SWG123 wrote:2nd basket auto-closed for +292, so nearly +700 pips for the day. Not too shabby.
I' m waiting for this, this kind of market is useless for a trending EA.............

Re: Shelley's multi-pair basket trader
It would be appreciated if someone who has consistently been using this EA (current version) summarize the results so we know how it actually is performing. The time EA was opened and settings would help too.
We see results from people here and there which does not tell the story.
My 2 cents
Thanks

That's why I'm still on demo. You can guarantee it'll misfire the minute I go live.Caillou wrote:Yep, but sooner or later we will be in the middle of a reverse. The question is how and when must we exit?SWG123 wrote:2nd basket auto-closed for +292, so nearly +700 pips for the day. Not too shabby.
