Hi Sherrif,

Do you mind sharing the settings you use here? Do you decide which direction to trade or you trade both long and short at all times?

Thanks for sharing

I think he uses default settings (0,02 lots) and I think this is VERY risky, he has to withdraw regularly
About direction I think yes he has 2 charts one long only one short only

Thanks zyrt. Do you think he runs both charts (long & short) at the same time? Right now Gbpusd is trending down and he doesnt appear to have equity drawdown.
That suggests to me that he's right now trading only short- meaning some form of intervention. Open trades are private so we cant really confirm for now.

I think he runs the EA as it is designed to be, so, yes, 2 charts, one long, one short
He has probably quite high DD now
But he plays too big money so he can continue like this if he withdraws, because soon or later, account will blow
To be safe you must have 25000usd (use cents), starting 0,01

Lever, we can see current equity on each account which gives a good clue.

I just took a quick look at Sherifs, Levers and the official real FXClearing account to compare
http://www.myfxbook.com/members/FxGridTraderEA/forex-grid-trader-ea-fx/294047

Sherif
Current equity = 100.98% so currently no DD.

Official real FXClearing account
Current equity = 97.08% so currently very small DD.

Leverconsult demo
Current equity = 58.75% - we can see you have 12 Buy trades in big DD.

It looks like Sherif is using default settings same as the official account just with higher risk . Do you know why yours is doing so badly Lever?

And why Sherif has no DD? Maybe the EA has sell GBPUSD?
I also have big DD now
Not worried as I have big equity and high leverage
and the more DD we have, the more winning we'll have
but still

Also I dont understand how FXclearing can win so much starting only 0,01

Zyrt is yours similar to Levers? Because the official account has just 3% DD now.

I think 1:1000 leverage has something to do with the good results on FXclearing ;)

Official account has 3% DD but he has 25K balance ! So, it is normal
I also have 25K balance in one of my 3 accounts

Fxclearing doesnt have 1000 but 500 leverage

And leverage doesnt affect results, just it allows to open positions with less money

Is this too risky-pls comment everyone.
thanks

Sure, if you use 0,01 and you want to stay months before blowing, you need at least 10-12K balance
On last 8 months maximum DD, starting 0,01, was 9-10K

Personally I have 25K balance
