It only tracks pairs shown in your Market Watch console. Just remove pairs that you don't trade from there and reload the dashboard.

Hi. Please don't misunderstand me, I wasn't trying to suggest trading this system on the 1M charts. My request was partly because it could be useful to people that are trading on shorter timeframes, but primarily because I have been using the lower ...

Thanks! I've not seen that issue but I'll update now just in case. Would it be a big ask to make a version of the dashboard with M1 included?

Not managed to add much to my basket today due to the quiet market and the fact that I spent the day walking in the hills instead of sitting in front of the computer

A quick note about the crossover entry point. "2. The candles must have just changed from Dodger Blue/Blue to Red/Maroon for short trades or from Red/Maroon to Dodger Blue/Blue for long trades."! This is quite open to interpretation I think. ...

Ignore this! For some reason the EA was defaulting to long only in the main settings, not sure why since others don't so I just overlooked the obvious. lol

I completely understand, and it's never going to replace an experienced human behind the monitor. I also think skepticism is the way forward! But that's not to say it couldn't be a profitable EA. For example. I've been testing the functions a lot ...

haha. To be honest the strategy of this one is pretty nailed down already. There are always refinements to any system but a lot of people have been using this live for several years with excellent results. I think the exits are actually a more ...

RSI only looks good. I'm going to stop for the night now and test the stochs only again tomorrow. I'm not 100% sure about them so I want to watch them again just in case. I'll also check with short trades as right now I'm only checking long.

Testing using Stochs only. Here it takes a buy trade when the stochs cross the 50 line in the sell direction? Or possibly (and more likely) a coincidental is it a late one from the stochs changing to over 50 a few bars before?

OK, the entries are looking spot on using just the crossover. I'll post again tomorrow when I've checked the other parts separately, and then in combinations together. If there is an error that will show where it is. Make things much easier

Doing that now. I'll test with each section separately (cross/RSI/Stochs) today and tomorrow.

Looking at your graph with the trade repeated I'm wondering what's going on at my end. It looks right in your chart. So why is it so wrong in mine. ADDED: I understand why we're getting different results on that one. My test only starts about 2 bars ...

If you want to see if the same happens at your end I'm using the following settings: Settings file as attached above. H4 timescale USDJPY Dates: August 1st 2018 - August 8th 2019 The trade shown about 4 bars late in post 128 happens pretty much ...

And finally the final trades. As you can see it gets the last trade right, but the one before it is way off. Maybe 4 or 5 bars late?

I'm not really sure what triggered this one, since there is no crossover for ages before.

I'm not entirely sure what's going on to be honest. The EA seems to currently get some trades right, but many wrong. I'll post a few examples. This one is the first trade it takes. As you can see the opening here is very late indeed. My settings ...
