Very risky account! Try to set lower LotFactor

yeah, i kinda interrupted the trades somehow. should have closed all trades during the start of the week when my equity was close to my balance, then start total grid again from scratch.

even if i had left it alone it would have handled the situation though.

Wakeel, thank you. Could you detail the manual intervention needed and used please?

The truth is, it's not something I can detail, i just get to use my instincts. But that was with the older version. Since the new ones have parameters i can play with to close some pairs early

Thanks Wakeel. I am impressed with your control of this tiger of an EA.

Now using a base lot of 0.1 (nano) per $200. Gonna be re adjusting base lot in that proportion as the acct increases every week

Hi Wakeel, can you explain what do you mean 0.1 (nano) per $200? That is a big jump from 0.01 to 0.1 - an increase of basefactor 10x. ?

Curious to see how this performs.

In a cents acct, 0.01 means 1 picolot, and 0.1 means 1 nanolot. So if the developer started with a base lot of 0.01 for a balance of approx $5, it's equivalent to me using a base lot of 0.4 for $200. But in this case, i reduced mine from 0.4 to 0.1 which is one-forth the initial crazy risk

Wakeel

I good tactic to employ could be is as follows:

when DD reaches 25% then set all pairs to 'FreezeAfterTakeProfitPairs'

if it does go further to 40% then set pairs to ' CloseAtBreakEvenPairs'

Any thoughts ?

Sure that's a nice one, i also liked the developer's idea of freeze after TP when a pairs level reaches 9 & also when total open trades reaches 40

sorry being not so experimented as you guys, but how to set rules like 'when DD reaches 25% then set FreezeAfterTakeProfitPairs'
' is that manual changes or using a script ?

so nice and sweet watching your balance grow with a minimised DD😉

It seems You will have hard time surviving current draw down ?
Better to lose an oportunity than a money

Sure, just hope a retrace occurs upon market open for EJ, cos that's the pair with the increased risk. If you're in those DDs too, i guess my recommended risk should be doing fine for you
