Okay trying to sift through that trading history is just not going to happen.

Yeesh, thats crazy. Is there no way to isolate all the trades from Lion?

BTW Alex ha said very clearly that the EA does not work on any other pair, its for EUR/USD.

Why are you using it on other pairs?

In the first screen shot, it shows that the trades are set twelve pips apart but I can't see what actually placed the trades.
It only shows trades set twelve pips apart.

That is very strange because it has never does this to me and my history is there for all to see.

What are the settings you are using?

I have looked at my trade history and I am just not seeing this pattern you keep referring to.

My trades were not 12 pips apart.

Can you please explain how you came to conclusion the EA is placing trades 12 pips apart?

BTW I only included a sample of the history, the history of my full account is view-able.
Again I do not see this 12 pip pattern you are saying the EA uses.

The four trades here took four days to place, 12th 16th 17th 18th.

How can that be if the EA is using some grid pattern 12 pips apart.

I think you are mistaken.

That kind of laziness is why I suggest you never trade for a living. I've looked at your account and picked 3 out right away.










 These are your trades in your account you call lion.
I know what Alex states about which pairs to trade with this EA, on live I am generously trusting it with a small amount of live money.
On demo I'm running several pairs, which for research analysis I can single out with myfxbook, so could you if knew what to look for and you were not so lazy.

I will not waste any more of my time on explaining thsi 12 pips, it is clearly there, look for yourself on your own time.

Okay @BenScoobert I will not get into the name calling nonsense with you, instead I will only say this.

Yes some trades were almost 12 pips apart however a grid system is 12 pips apart, not almost 12.

So why are you not accounting for all the trades?
Oh that's right, it knocks your 'grid' theory right out the nearest window.

I will do the work for you as I am so lazy.

Since I set it to $5000 and changed my lot size to 1 there have been 14 trades.

Of those 14 trades only 2 were 'buy trades'. (Don't grid patterns set a trade in each direction at set intervals? say '12' pips)

That leaves us 12 trades that were 'sell' trades.

Of those 2 are exactly 12 pips apart. Lets blame this on slippage , server lag, whatever.

We will not count the pippettes, only the pips as you are saying they are 12 'pips' apart.

(for those that are wondering what a pippette is)
https://www.babypips.com/school/preschool/how-to-trade-forex/pips-and-pipettes.html

So when looking at pips only we change 1.0761 to 1.0761

'1' being 1 pip.

So a trade gap of 1.07619 / 1.06714 becomes 1.0761 / 1.0671 for a gap of 90 pips.

I will leave the pippettes in place to avoid confusion when comparing with my history, just know that we are not counting them.

So lets look at the opening times from one sell to the next and the difference in pips

I set myfxbook to sort by 'open' time.

1.06833

1.06714 / 1.06833 (12 pips)

1.07619 / 1.06714 (90 pips)

1.07501 / 1.07619 (11 pips)

1.07329 / 1.07501 (18 pips)

1.07688 / 1.07329 (36 pips)

1.07571 / 1.07688 (11 pips)

1.07455 / 1.07571 (12 pips)

1.06602 / 1.07455 (85 pips)

1.06379 / 1.06602 (23 pips)

1.07064 / 1.06379 (69 pips)

1.06018 / 1.07064 (105 pips) first trade gap

Ya, great grid.
Anyone can go look for themselves, the info is all there.
Perhaps rather than insulting people you should learn to do basic math.

Please bother me no more.
I joined this site to share ideas and my own experiences with this EA with other people and to learn from others as well because I no expert, I did not join to get into 'Net fights' with people.

I sincerely wish you a wonderful day but I will not be responding to you any further.

Correction:

1.07329 / 1.07501 (18 pips)

1.07688 / 1.07329 (36 pips)

1.07571 / 1.07688 (11 pips)

1.07455 / 1.07571 (12 pips)

Should be:

1.07329 / 1.07501 (18 pips)

1.07571 / 1.07329 (25 pips)

1.07688 / 1.07571 (11 pips)

1.07455 / 1.07688 (23 pips)

I mistakenly switched these two numbers {1.07688 & 1.07571 }, I have set them correct and yet the '12 pip grid' theory is still shot.

May the pips be with you.

I do not represent Lion FX in ANY way.

I just don't like being called names.

Dear all,

I confess I am worried the way this EA is behaving with me. I started trading with this EA in the beggining of February. Since then I took 17 of the 18 trades MyFXbook registered.

The problem is the difference in pips.

I trade with Activtrades with no commission and with a EURUSD spread of 0.5.

Parameters:

15 Min timeframe
Movperiod 90
Slow ema period 36
Signal period 55

These are the trades I made In February comparing with trades in MyFxbook

This difference might kill the performance of this EA. What is happening with my performance? Can anybody in this forum help me try to understand why there is such a big difference? Is it worth trading this EA with this difference? In one week, the difference is 62 pips!!!

The only advice I can give is make your myfxbook trade history public so we can all see it.
As far as settings go, E-mail Alex, he is really great for getting back to his customer fast and very helpful.

Hi,

check what is the server delay, perhaps the difference is caused by slow execution (from your mt4 to trading server)

Our governmet, so our regulator has announced that it reduced the leverage to 1:10 max and margin requirement to 50000 TRY (nearly 14000 $) and has plans to prohibit the citizens from registering at foreign brokers.

Currently i am on a foreign broker ( ic markets) i have just talked to them via 'chat with us' and they said when they receive such a thing from the regulator or govt they would terminate my acccount..

So i need reliable offshore brokers that wont give a shhit to our government..

Recomendations appreciated!
