Although most people already know how to do it we would include instructions on how to get good data so the indicator will work right. Attached is a taste of the indicator for you. What it shows is the impeccable hedge of buy GBPJPY, sell GBPUSD, and sell USDJPY. In this example the USDJPY lot size has to be set to whatever the GBPUSD price close is whenever the indicator starts. The other two are just 1 lot each. Of course the swap isn't included in this example otherwise it would slowly trend down.
Hi huhenyo

yes, the holes can be a problem. I'm surprised that there isnt more interest in this, particularly from new traders who are subscribing to hedging programs like freedom rocks, your indicator would at least help them identify the kinds of risks or drawdown they might expect. There's probably a forum or group somehere with hundreds of potential customers, so its probably worth while finding them.
