Hi,
I don't have any EA. Actually the only automated thing are stop buy and stop sell orders with a TP of 25. I use some fundamentals and technicals to determine the trend and try to enter during corrections and sometimes even totally countertrend if I see a movement becomes total out of whack like the silver move up to 29.

Thanks. That's a good suggestion, I've thought about this as well. The problem is not to make money but to not lose it again. ;)

Yes I sometime put in some huge trades but always with a stop loss of course.
Today I tripled my account within the first month. Amazing!
The timestamp from Oanda is EST so you have to add 5 hours to get GMT. I live in GMT+1 (MEZ) so I have to add 6 hours.

Hi Shorty,
that's difficult to say. I don't have that "risk per trade". One trade can have several entries but I try to cap the drawdown at 20-30%.
I don't dislike shorts. I sometimes go long Yen if I see the opportunity but I don't want to go short after the move. ;)
My primary timeframe is the daily.
MarginCall, thanks! :)

The same one as I use now. Basically BWILC with some technical stuff (simple higher highs / higher lows for trend definition at the daily and weekly). I will describe that more in detail.

Wipeouts are always possible even with stops. Low leverage is the key to survive.

Thanks. No it's not a classic carry/grid system. Even though I sometimes use such grids (especially in the AUD/JPY). I just did some stupid mistakes in December and I'm on the recovery path now.
My approach is called "BWILC" you can google for it. :)
