Geko hi,,, Hope you enjoyed the Sun park as much as i did today ...

Oh yes, a bit warm, but great time in familly

So the existing trades will keep on running even if the button is off _

Yep

And should i want to stop after let's say a couple of profitable of unprofitable baskets ...
is there any option in the Dashboard for that ?

It depends how you want to manage that, you have some timing options per session, per day, per hour... In the Virtual basket mode which will discuss later, we have some options also

First I would recommend you to run some "dumb" tests just to get used with the timing option.

Excellent okay will do .... As my habit i try to use DB's first and then read manual if any.. but i think on this occasion I'd better read it... however all other's people posts and yours really helped to know more ... You explain things clearly without much jargon_
Still using your V1.0 Gig CDM Btw, to Open multi pairs fast ... about to expiry so will load new one, if any yet _ ,,,
OK, ok less words and more results ... let's start

[Geko]

You don't have to read eveything in the manual, most of the stuff is really straight forward. The main sections are the ones concerning timing settings and strategies

I have updated all GiG tools last week-end so you can redownload it, tell me if you need also the MT5 version for CDM and Blast

Ah Geko, you too kind .. that's okay for now thank you, Mt5 have still few issues and have sent already couple of tickets to Mql5, hopefully they will look into it _ Pdf only 41 pages (minus) photos = 15 pages .. will be a couple hours reading it all + 2 cups of green tea, and as I've seen it it's all quite intuitive _

Hi Geko,
Any comments about my post?

I don't know much but I have 2 thoughts on this.
First, it would take extensive testing to prove that this is an actual requirement. Are the signals that bad that the EA needs such a backup entry method; I would think it would be signalling an opposite entry by the time it meets the scenario set by yourself, depending on time frame naturally. The coding IMHO would be enormous, with the outcome of trading unsure, too much effort for too little gain. If Geko keeps adding options at everyone's request, at this rate, we will need a NASA computer to do all the calculations
Similar thoughts recently expressed on the FF original thread, stick to the basics, it already provide tons of pips! Although, the forum name is Greed is Good
Second thought is, if you are that worried about trading with the trend, use the trend filters by Candle Direction already provided in the Dashboard. I find them to be excellent and that is why they are there.
Hope that helps, good luck, John

My previous reply was directed at scali suggestion about his new trade entry parameters as is this post.

I did a Quick reply so it doesn't quote the post and maybe some were confused.

Anyway, I think he would need to back up the specifications with a real example to prove the requirements.

To add to my comments about filtering, we can see that already today's trades are all with trend - GBPJPY is not a concern as it is not qualified, no use to look for problems that may or may not be there IMHO

Hi Geko, I think there are some issues with GiG v1.13. As u can see from the screen shot, it is opening trades on pairs which does not meet the trading requirements. For example, D1 F/F & F/T have contrasting signals and no trades are supposed to be opened but instead the EA opened 2 buy trades for it. GJ is also similar, with some other pairs opening trades even when not highlighted by the EA.

I was using the GiG v1.12 last week and it was working fine, this issue started once i changed to v1.13 over the weekend!

[firewight]

You need to change to strategy 2 if you want the signals to align...

[TheSnowman]

Yes, it's all there on page 9 & 10 of the manual, with pictures too

[ckyon1]

But according to the user guide and also my experience from using GiG v1.12, if there is a buy and a sell signal then no trades would be opened. But in v1.13, USDJPY have contrasting signals and the EA opened 2 buy trades instead.

If u see AUDCAD for example, it is suppose to open a trade if ANY of the T/F F/F or F/T has a signal. Dashboard shows no signal for all 3 but EA still opened a buy trade for it. I hope my explanation makes it clear now?
