mrdfx replied Aug 21, 2017It's a strength meter, I use it to monitor the currency strength. It easy to get online for free, just google it. I can't remember exactly where I got it from, I've had it for a while.

mrdfx replied Aug 21, 2017Ok thanks that sounds cool but is there a way to lock in more so the profit starts locking from 100 pips but at smaller increments so if it hits 200 pips the I would be on more? My thoughts is to lock in the most pips starting from 100 and if the ...

mrdfx replied Aug 21, 2017Being a Monday it doesn't mean I don't trade, I will still trade manually if I find good set ups, but I won't trade the CCFp basket strategy on a Monday. Fridays are still good so I trade, but I also don't want to waste a trading day so I'll check ...

mrdfx replied Aug 21, 2017Guys for those of you who use profit lock and lock step, perhaps you can help me out. I'm trying to get my head around this setting as I would like to make sue of it but it still confuses me lol. Let's say that I had a basket and set an initial TP ...

mrdfx replied Aug 21, 2017Yup that's why I don't trade Monday's anymore. I do run some tests on Monday's just to collect data but most times its the same or similar result, higher than usual DD, less max pips, and most times SL being hit, so now I just avoid Monday's lol.

mrdfx replied Aug 20, 2017Hi montego yes I have my TO basket set to open at 23:10 GMT, and I also trade LO using the time 07:10 GMT. I use the same settings for both sessions. Be advised that I don't trade on Monday's live using this strategy and will only trade on Tuesday.

mrdfx replied Aug 20, 2017I just spent the weekend reading the whole of that thread and also part 1. It was really inspiring to see how the CCFp was originally used 9 years ago and how it came to be what we have today. Funny enough I got some fresh ideas (actually old ideas) ...

mrdfx replied Aug 19, 2017Thanks jenbols, it's very interesting to read back over 9 years ago how traders were using this CCFp strategy and what they were doing. It seems things were more simple back then, and I think we can learn a few things by going back to the original ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017Ok guys I've updated my live set up. From the data I collected from my top 4 contenders over the last 4 weeks, I've made some minor adjustments and overall I think this set up should do better next week. The differences between the 4 are so minimal ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017No I haven't tried shooting for 100 pips, I've always been content with 50 pips lol. I'm am running a basket test where I've put together my top 4 settings into 1, and set a TP of 150, the first week was ok but the TO spoiled the numbers. I'll see ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017Here's a fun fact about my top 4 FIFO 50 pips contenders. Over the last 4 weeks of testing TO + LO and taking into account that I don't trade on Monday's, that's a total of 32 trade sessions in total. Below is the average DD per basket over the last ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017I already did, and as I mentioned in my previous posts I still need to do more testing before I can make any conclusions. I will be making a slight change to my live set up over the weekend, and once I've done that I'll upload a pic for you guys to ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017You know the thing that I've noticed with my 50 pips baskets is that depending on how many suggestions are given by the indicator, only the initial spread plus a few pips in DD at the beginning can already go over 50 pips before is swings back to ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017So I've just crunched all the numbers and data for previous weeks of all my FIFO 50 pips baskets, calculating total TP hit and SL hit, total min and max DD etc, whats interesting is that overall they all kind of balance in different ways. My basket ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017I've started crunching the numbers for all my tests this week, and I can immediately see that TO was terrible this week for almost all my baskets, so my conclusion is that this week was not a good week for TO tests regardless of the settings. ...

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017I've been testing Strength on H1 and its been going very well. I haven't set any TP or SL as I want see how it can perform without limitations but initial testing this week has proved positive and I think I can set a comfortable TP of 200 pips.

mrdfx replied Aug 18, 2017Ninely done Embry1!
It looks like you onto something solid there. I see you testing Strength D1 on L2 with EQB filter and without? The EQB I think is a nice filter as it really does reduce the DD while not sacrificing too many pips. Your H4, ...(binned per thread starter's request) CCFp-Diff ... Low Risk FIFO
