Brand new account at FXCM. This uses the same EA as BT28 Oanda. Performance may not be exactly the same because of differences in spread.

I am trading 28 pairs based on USD, EUR, JPY, GBP, CHF, AUD, CAD, and NZD. Each pair is analyzed on its own merits. The strategy is to collect positions with an eye on catching a short term trend. All trades have stops and targets. Stops are moved to breakeven and then trails at fixed increments. Targets are reduced if volatility decreases. Additional trades are added to positions if the price action permits while still in the trend. FIFO rules are applied when there are multiple positions on the same pair.

Do not subscribe when I'm on a tear like this couple of weeks. Wait for my performance to settle down or even drop a little. you don't want to start your account with a drawdown.

Sorry about that. All the gains earlier in the week vanished and then some. Now I'm thinking of adding an account stop.

I'm tired of giving everything back. Added a 3% account stop and 8% account TP. Also, if I'm ahead 5%, the account stop moves to breakeven. All positions are closed if any of the above conditions get hit, otherwise, individual trade's SL/TP are in play.
