Hi

Would you mind sharing your setfile & version you are using? :) :) :) :)

Cheers

Steve
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:
You shouldn't have to close manually. Adaptive TP should close for you.

Ditto to both. Good fun, isn't it?

:D
Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

The thing is, usually when I have fun it costs me money. This is quite the opposite! :D

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;

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?

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?
I' m waiting for this, this kind of market is useless for a trending EA.............

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. :roll:
