anyone using this EA on another brokers?
I am using it on Traders Way. It is doing well. The developer has been very helpful. I have no trouble recommending it and I hope it continues.

Martingale..... a ticking bomb

Ultimately it did not trade like the master. I could not figure out why it failed.

Looking at the account history it looks like some orders are doubling. It doesn't look like pure martingale and also it has SL 30 or 50 pips (which is not huge SL distance)

It appears to take the Stop Loss, then reverse the direction after the SL is hit. From it's history I see it only has 1 open trade per pair at any one time and it has gone up a max of 5 levels before profit was taken. Much safer than a traditional Marty which will hold all losing positions and continue to open trades against the trend until a profit is taken or the account bursts. I'm going to test it. I like that it reverses direction with each loss and only has 1 open position per pair at any given time. Micro lots.... definately.

Above is the screenshot of the trade that stopped me out. Notice 10465715 and 10466156, both GBPUSD trades. The first was 0.32 lots and the second was 0.64 lots. Alvin 1.2 reversed direction. Both me and the master lost the first trade. On the second trade I lost again but the master account(not shown) won. Mine closed within about 40 minutes but the master account stayed open 80 minutes and caught the reversal. Caution this may be sheer volatility in which case the master account winning was sheer luck, not due to anything in the algorithm. I do not know if I can be of any help with this. Please see the vendor.

Hmm...i think it could be due to account balance. The vendor's balance is quite substantial and the system figured that i can weather the adverse volatility further (eventually it did as you mentioned). You balance at that time is just a few hundred bucks and judging by the lot size, the system could have figured better to absorb the losses instead of risking further. Subsequent sequential losses compounded the problem and eventually the account blew up. That's why i think of.
