Vortex Trader PRO Discussion

VTP with trade copying is obviously a great EA, but as an old guy with not a whole lot of time left to turn a small account balance into enough money to pay off my kids mortgages I find this fellow a lot more interesting.

I seriously doubt any profit made from any new unheard-of-brokers.

They all start off new and unheard of. I'm going to watch for a while longer. I emailed him and he offered to manage my acct for 5% of the profit monthly, so long as I funded the acct with enough to allow min trade size of 1 lot. Seems like a nice guy, answered my emails quickly enough. Interesting possibility, and becoming more interesting with time. Just sayin'.

Looks like you can subscribe for $20 a month at MQL5. The new subscriptions are not permitted due to large drawdown.

Thanks for sharing this info. I've seen this kind of combinations of very good results and unheard of brokers. Just common sense, if I have $50000 to manage, I 'd never consider sending my money to any new unheard of brokers. I only believe in good results with reputable brokers because it's quite possible for some scam brokers to cook their own trading records to attract funds. I'm not saying this one is such a broker, but I just want to be cautious.

One of these days I'm going to ask him if there are any client accts he manages that I can look at.

Just started using VTP since last Thursday. Not a very good start at this time. Hoping things will improve soon......

we took a nice afraid ....

Not sure what you mean by that?

how about -100 pips down??? :-(

I started to use VTP yesterday. I got exactly the same trades as this master account. But what happened? SL came down to 200 pips. It's nearly 2 times risk as the original. And those trades with small losses are also not typical to this EA. Is it an EA or a manual signal then?

I also started to use VTP recently and I calculated the lot sizes based on a 110pip SL.
It might make sense to increase the SL from 110 to 200 if that can allow recover trades that would be closed in lost by just providing some additional room. (The looses early this week would have been recovered for instance).
If the EA has been modified to adapt to this scenario, it would be good to know. That way we can adjust our risks based on this new SL policy.
Doug could you share any information about this change of 200 PIP SL?
Thanks.

It looks like there was manual intervention in changing the SL and closing the positions. It's quite obvious.

Since this one is running as a Trade Copier now, there's no use of strategy tester. As a new customer, I only got the trade copier, not the original EA.

I am still using the normal EA, not the new copier, and my trades does not match now, today I had 2 winners trades and here I do not see them

Happy two years of profit Vortex Trader Pro!

I asked Doug for refund on Monday. Doug replied me said he would be happy to refund and I'm still waiting now. Hope he could proceed it soon.

Hi all,

Well, just a few losing trades already made most of you in WORRY ?

Just calm down, and let's see how the VTP Trade Copier performs in coming weeks and next 2 months.

+++ By the way, after the 2 losing trades of GU, it seems that most of us use much bigger lot sizes than expected, and so, when those 2 losses on GU came, we suffered big loss.

I just bought another EA which traded on USDJPY, GBPJPY, and EURJPY and profits were good for last week. Risk vs Reward is over 1:1, and Win rate % is around 80%.

But I can not disclose here because it was from a friend of mine who wanted me to keep secret as of now.

But if anyone is interested, just pm me, and I can show you live results.

Next week, I am starting to trade a completely new, very small account of less than 150 usd with my Most Aggressive Trading Style. If you are interested in this, I can give you my Investor password via email.

My email is: [email protected]. My Skype ID is james.phuc72

I only want to have lots of trader friends, and if possible, I want to help newbie traders if I can.

At this moment, I am still using VTP Trade Copier, because I still believe in Doug's EA. At the same time, I am using the new EA from my friend (he wanted me to be his Beta-tester), and I use the smallest account to trade manually. I want to compare which of these 3 accounts have the fastest growth in shortest time like 1 - 2 months from next week.

Have a nice day !

James
