OK,

How do you set this puppy up?

First Prelim. Step:

Find the "Basketv8" file and open it in MetaEditor. Scroll down until you come across the pairs being listed. Change each "case" to the pairs you specifically want to trade. You'd better write them down for later reference. Once all cases are to your satisfaction, Click "Compile." It should say Zero errors. Do the exact same thing with Basket Trader v2.3 in MetaEditor, closing out the same way.

Now, disperse the files to their folders:

Expert Advisors:
T101 Basket Trader V2.3

Custom Indicators:
Basketv8
P4L Candle Time
PPO
Sidus v3
Stoch Candles

Scripts:
AEMERGENCY Close All
CloseAll

Step One:

Open "ERUJPY" or "GBPJPY" chart on the TF you intend to use as your trade site. Now drag/drop "Basketv8 indi onto that chart. Select the number of pairs to be used and the TF you're using (in minutes).

Now, click on your MT4 "File" button and click "offline chart." [ADD: When Dialog box opens, scroll down to "BSKT#H1" and double click it.] Your trading chart will now turn into a "combined" chart.


Step Two:

To your combined chart, drag/drop the EA "T101 Basket Trader V2.3. When the Dialogue box opens, you need to change all the first "trues" to "false" about Engine use. Also, scroll on down and set your lot sizes. Click OK.


Step Three:

Here's where it turns fun. Add the following Indies: P4L Candle Time, PPO, Sidus and Stoch Candles. Extend to your liking.

To open your basket, decide if it will be a BUY or SELL basket. Find the OPEN BASKET/CLOSE BASKET words and double click on your choice. Ah, nothing happened! Now left click hold/drag to center. Click yes at the response and your pairs will log in with their trades. You're up and running!


Additional Info: Like all orders, opening a basket causes a lot of bounce so expect to give your basket an hour to calm down. As each pair crosses from negative to positive, it'll change from red to green. Pairs that insist on no profit can be exited the normal MT4 fashion.

When you're finished with the basket, just close all trades. There's an script to use but sometimes it balks. Just close out.

That's Basket Trading #2! Enjoy!


Step One: ..... ***** "click on your MT4 "File" button and click "offline chart." [ADD: When Dialog box opens, scroll down to "BSKT#H1" and double click it.] Your trading chart will now turn into a "combined" chart" ****** ....

I have tried for a while and give up on it. Basket trading it does not matching my trading strategy.
