DEMO FLEX HalfGrid Discussion

Hi Glenn,

sorry, I was on vacation. I used slightly different settings and played around with them SL and without SL.

First I used:

As my account was limited for 1 month there won't be any updates anymore!

On real account you need to adjust SL or risk according to your balance. So maybe SL might be set too tight.
Currently I use on real account only 0.1 risk for GBP and JPY pairs and USDCAD - the rest 0.2 risk.

Kind regards.
