I started out last week again with this EA, after some experimenting last year I set my risk to 1% instead of 10%, which is much more common and will protect your account to some degree. Equity protectors cannot be installed on vps servers from mql5.
Small gains are always better than large losses.

If you already have got this EA for over a year now, surely you must have seen large drawdowns already and it would be no surprise to you to see that it opens a new counter trend trade every 9 pips if getting into troubles. That's why I set the max risk per trade to 1% instead of 10%. Still a lot of money when you have 7k on your account, instead of 100 dollars.

Dont buy anything Russian
Dont follow any Russian

Well, take it easy, do not go into hedging because likely you will increase the damage.
You have two options. Or you keep it running or you close. Frankly if your DD is close to 50 I would keep it. The damage is done anyway.
The point I want to make is that if one decides to play grids it must accept that this will happen. Because it always happens. I am not saying it is a bad strategy ( well it is) but once it is taken I suggest you to keep it to the end. Grids as well as martingales are based on large DD expecting that the price will come back.
I suggest you to be coherent with the system you have chosen but hey, it is your money.
BTW I am on it as well, in my case however I a running it at 20% risk, therefore I got a 10% DD. I do not like it but well I can live with it. My humble recommendation is that when using grids try to adjust the risk to the minimum.
Good luck

Every time. When there is any DD panic and a damnation in my address... the adviser earned Gain: +1242.03%. It can't work without DD.
Put money in bank under 5% a year. But even the bank won't give a guarantee that it to you will earn eternally.
I don't hide trade history. It is on the website. Trade for 1 year on the real account. backtesting, the Analysis on history where all transactions are open.
How many after that it is necessary to offend me? If you don't want to see DD, then be not engaged in Forex

seems safe but what about profitability? what is your monthly growth with that?
Well I never put all eggs in one basket.I prefer to have different strategies working in one account and have several accounts all running at a small risk. I do not mind if a strategy gives me 2% per month if I have others working on the same equity. At the end you diversify your risk with multiple strategies using a small portion of your equity. And believe me you avoid stupid DDs.
At the end if I get 5% per month on my total capital I believe I am very fortunate.
Regards.

That's absolutely true.
Though it was my first day on a real account with this EA, so it gave me a bit of heat immediately.
