TJF, what settings would you reccommend for the new GT MTF filter??
I know you use H1 mainly as the filter, but what about the levels?

I think that is for us all to fund out :)
Actually GMT Level was not asked for but I added myself.
I assume it can come in handy, let's see.

Hi Mathias,

thanks for all your great work. :clap: :clap: :clap:

I have set up an instance with your OOTB settings for the upcoming week. Lets see how this compares to the Dotty family rat race.

Cheers, Thomas

Thanks!
But I am not sure if the OOTB settings are relevant.
I think you need to have an idea of what strategy to use and then configure it.
I have some settings that I am refining that can soon be downloaded.
But you can really already do Intraday, IntraWeek, IntraMonth, Scalping, Hedging, Basket trading, single trading etc.
As soon as I fully understand how I should use the object oriented capabilities of MQL I will add even more possibilities :)

I always test OOTB settings first trusting the developer to give me a starting point that shows the basic concept.

I actually had that before, will add something to the next version.

For each set I feel 3 trades per pair is enough and max of 1 per pair per H1 candle. Since H1 will be the common denominator for both sets then 0.5% risk per H1 ATR and 0.5% basket TP is what I will try first.

Since I can't compromise on the size of the account (I want this to work from £500 up) I am going to eliminate all CHF pairs since they take up the most margin for the least gain and run all the rest.
Quick update.. GTF allowed trading to start for this week just a couple of hours ago and first basket closed within an hour from H1D1.

I am not testing level yet.. but you can and should :) .. need as much data on different tests as possible to see what works best.

Yes H1 for me and I have delta min of 0.04 and candle 2 which seems a good basic setting for this filter so far......

Just so I understand it right: Is the idea that it must point up for it to be good?
Can pointing down be a valid option too?
Depending on how to read it it could just as well be that a flat curve is bad but going up or down is good.
I assume it is for us to find out but do any of you have any previous experience on this indicator?
