Sounds like a great result - well done & good luck on live

Which EA is for 10.2A? I didn't think that was done yet
Sorry Pat,

I am running the current version from this thread. Only changes are to the JS. Jumping at 30. also allowing shorts on aud, nzd, and cad. I feel this has to be done to take advantage of strong risk off moves. I pull off profits when I check the charts before each session close. I also go flat before large news. if unscheduled news changes sentiment, I go flat, wait a day, and restart. I also close out Friday around noon. I do not want to hold through the weekends under current market conditions.

Testing the JBS pivot basket trader. But trading it as individual EA and not as a basket.

No BB trades have yet Triggered. Planning on looking at that code when I am back from vacation. If i get it sorted, I will test those trades for a few weeks to see their results before trading the lve as well.

Watch out Gentlemen !!!!!!!!!!!!

The EA started to open and close USDCHF trades between 0.97775-0.97874 today. Each trade have resulted in an immediate loss of the price of 3 pips 30 times (D1 H4 trend trade).

I checked trade history and the same kind of series happened with the AUDUSD pair on the 4th and 6th of july. Those were like 3 times 60 trades in a row resulting 3-5 pips loss with each trade, also D1 H4 trend trade.

Anyone experienced the same thing? It is dangerous to run the robot without the quick fix.

Picture attached for reference. A nice full-candle-like red mark right on the pivot line indicates multiple SLs I guess.

Opened 30 times, those would have been nice trades. So the opening was good, I only feel bad about the closures... he he he

Regards,
Rewand

I have not experienced anything like that either live or on demo. This bot is doing its job while I sleep. I am thankful for it.

does anyone get BB trades with this bot?
also have we fixed the issue of bouncing off a key level from top or bottom for sell / buy signals. What I mean by this is that last when I used it this one took e.g. sell trade when price was below key pivot / level and just touched the level and closed above it instead of when price crossed below it from above or price touched but got rejected at that level. That would be for price to retrace and then short.

Hi all,
i've had this happen many many times. on US stocks, metals, and across forex pairs. Have not been able to see anything in the code that could help. What i did do is turn the tradeD!Trend and TradeD1H4Trend to 'false' and 2 stack trades. Then there were hardly any positions for the bot to take, too slow to trade so studying this manually and following Jemooks notes.
cant remember which pair, but i've dropped this in favour of NB's version of bots and trading well with those on demo. Sorry Steve,all, i'm still battling with coding.
Never had BB trades either.
was running 2d with no mods, except for TF was set to use viewing TF, 1H on some of the charts. The whole platform was dedicated to this EA and no other interference on markets.com demo.
regards,
cuz.
ps: i have no intention of suing anyone, just really enjoying the humour and vibe of this forum. Thanks to all who bother to contribute. :D

EDIT,
sorry guys, i still got it all running on a seperate computer at home, here is the latest pic of closed results, shoot with any questions you might want to check with me if it can help with the coding.

and here's a pic from all the US stocks with that stacking error, or range trade error, not sure what it is, look at all the repeats and times are almost identical and these were BOA and Microsoft stocks.
ciao
