Well big USD news like this typically has a strong pullback before it either continues the trend or completely reverses, there's not telling still what's going to happen. I think USD will continue to trend south but you never know. GBP news ...

That one had to have been opened manually, mine hit 161 pips and I closed it out. I actually opened mine as soon as I saw direction which was maybe 30 seconds before the real release, it sure did bounce back.

Gotta love when news goes in your favor. So today may be a bit skewed for this test that I started yesterday for my strength H4 basket at 00:00, 08:00,12:00, and 16:00. So far each has profited but not too favorable DD due to a big news day. Here is ...

Kinda had a feeling USD was going to take a huge dip, luckily all my baskets were in line with that plus I just ran a news basket, will post results shortly!

Totally forgot to set my LO last night like an idiot. Looks like it would have done well too. TO is doing great still but boy is everything slow right now in anticipation for NFP. No TPs hit yet so I guess I'm holding through NFP, nothing live today.

I'm definitely not opening monthly tomorrow, but I was thinking to wait until Tuesday due to labor day. I don't think there will be much movement on Monday so you might be safe.

I think you're thinking along the lines of not having a set timer for the basket like the EA suggests but rather a system similar to a manual basket open. Something that would look for indications like pullbacks or breakouts to trigger the basket. I ...

Not sure who said something about monthly basket unlikely to turn around on the last day of the month. Mine crawled its way out of a 5000 pip hole today lol. Still got a lot of work to do with my monthly and weekly basket but this was quite ...

You could do a profit lock past 100 as well just in case it doesn't make it to 200. Also, I'm doing a test on the H4 strength basket to see if the timing is that important and the answer is yes lol. I opened it at a random time to see how it would ...

Honestly with CAD news you could probably set a 200 pip target if you open soon enough, CAD is definitely the ideal basket I'm a little surprised USD went so well.

I actually meant to run CAD as well, CAD makes excellent moves with their red news. Here's USD.

Just like that, 300 pips with the help of CAD and USD news. Almost 10% on the demo account in 2 days, I think we got something here.

Good catch. So yes I tried FF last night because at first glance the TT settings (which are always going to be the same as TF by the way). Not sure if it was any better than TT/TF but FF did give me the worst DD so far. Here's another example, I ...

Yeah it's very tough to completely rely on the indicators and EA to do 100% of the work for you. The results will always be inconsistent in my opinion. Everything was red again today due to the news overnight which is becoming a problem. For me, not ...

More tools than we know what to do with! I would imagine the check by each pair is to include that pair or not, right?

I don't know why I didn't think to use the handy dandy new feature that FxMadness added to reverse individual pairs for my H4 manual basket. I opened it for tokyo session knowing the AUD pairs had the wrong signal but everything else looked good, ...

I'll be careful. The charting doesn't cost anything if you use their demo so I wouldn't consider it commercial but I don't know what FF considers commercial.

So first I looked at the signals provided by the indicator, then I looked at the charts. I have a 200 day SMA, bollinger bands, and RSI for each chart and executed the basket at the appropriate time. The first basket was executed around 13:45 GMT ...

Man that's just cruel, less than 3 pips away from 2 perfect baskets. This was reallllllllly interesting, I will certainly be testing this more and I love how simple it is. Unfortunately I can't tell you what time to start, because that will vary. ...

That, and just testing purposes lol. No need to close it out really, that was my first monthly test ever so I just wanted to stretch the limits.
