Currently coding the keystroke order execution and close all and some other functions to make faster executions from keyboard directly.

The picture is probably from your facebook account 😉
I think I am not qualified to give opinion as i do not understand what you are doing.
There might be some hedge things that i do not understand how to do. Overall from history I see that you control your losses using stop loss I only see that you use high leverage and with losing streak it can damage account quite seriously but you also mentioned hedges so you probably do something I do not get and hence as I mentioned before that i am most probably not qualified to criticize you 😕
Results look very good...I wish to see it on live 😉

thanks for the comment.
Hedge logic:
I had mentioned earlier that trades sometimes nailed by the very fast reverse moves faster then my reaction.
SO why I dont use tight stoploss. becouse I am trading with 1min chart and this chart gives me more waves then all other charts to exit on later with a new wave with a smaller loose. Hedge is to stop loss and give me some time to think and handle the trades before closing the trades in lost.

the only concern in my mind about Demo > Live is the slippage. the entry most of the time is not a big issue due I enter with reverse price move. now I coded the lock for this and while I am trading from keyboard over EA this lock will %100 handle the entry slippage. the exit is most of the time is Hard limit. I hope those will handle the slippage on 6 pip FIX_TP. if not then I will jump to 5 min chart with bigger TP.

I have no idea what broker you use. I have very little slippage with FXPrimus. But to avoid slippage you simply should not enter on the first push when liquidity most probably decreases due to increased orders flow. wait for pull back retracement and then place market/ limit order. There is much smaller chance for slippage and I actually often get more favorable price as price tends to move into my favor. I only use market orders.

Thanks Chikot. I have added Market/Pending order selection to keyboard with one_click. I will test it on Monday and see which will be better. I Guess some times market sometimes pending limit and sometime pending stop.

on Friday I had placed a pending stop long for US news hour just before 1 min news release to test. But my EA deleted the pending order. ( it has a option for that ) and market did it as I had planned.

so will improve that also.

yes, just wait after break out of the level you are looking for for price to come back even few pips. you can get better price most probably and little slippage. one thing. I trade with 5 pips spread and hence do not use limit orders as I tended to miss trades altogether cause it often did not retrace this much. good trade usually has very little DD before going into profit.

it depends Chikot. sometimes with a very small pullback sometimes with big one. I usually enter trades with reverse price move. now I added a feature to EA. when I send order it waits until the reverse tick. also I coded the lines to track slippage to see if its at my favor or not.

I need to adapt the new keyboard one-click order execution. I guess this will make it better. if not then will return to old system. I just want to improve before going live. due I will trade with 1LOT per 5000$ deposit. ( this week I will also test 075LOT per 5000$ equity. )

when I press button
'Q' it will open Long
'Z' it will open Short
'A' it will close
'1' it will close all
this is for eurusd
shift one column right for eurgbp
shift two column right for gbpusd

press 'M' for market order press 'M' again for pending


when completed I will share this EA here. but I must be carefull. if I start writing email or post while key_stroke enabled then can have very strange trades at all. 🙄

I think that depending on situation if pull back is too big may be it does not worth to be traded. May be it is a false signal.

thanks Chikot same wishes for you.

I will reduce the risk from 0.75 LOT per 5000$ equity >> 0.50 LOT per 5000$ equity.

this is %50 of my initial plan. So this will reduce my risk %50.
