Fury Live Account FOREXcom diskuse

Hey have any of you guys had your account stop updating? I just got the 400% return mark and I wanted to to a little bit of anlysis and it's not sending the data anymore I guess.

No. No problems here. Try support or the FAQ, maybe. But no problems here.

Side note: Demo tests are looking pretty pre tty nice lately. Narrowed down to a couple pairs around the same time and it is consistently doing well. EURUSD at daily close is almost flawless, right now / so far. Trying some different Trailing Stop settings for a while.

its showing me this, and i downloaded it and installed it, then set it to a chart to run the EA but still nothing...

Thats awesome, what kind of success is the trialing having, is it mitigating losses without seeming to drain profits? i think if you arent already doing it, run the same settings one with the trailing and one without to see if it makes a huge difference.

That is strange. I've never had to use the EA, either. Been able to just verify accounts with the password thing. Did have to reach out to support once thought and they fixed it within a day or two. Def reach out to them....they seem helpful.

Too early to tell just yet but I am doing exactly what you mentioned.

Have you ever tried just putting a hard SL and TP, like, 30 on and watched how that did? Basically, the strategy is 'will it hit 30 pips in profit first or hit the 30 pip SL'. Might try this when I get another few months of data out of the current accounts I have. (Can't run too many MT4s on the VPS.)

I will probably message them today and see whats up.

What VPS do you use? I use Amazon AWS since they give a year away for free, but its kind of hard to build it yourself sort of.

Hi Pay10. I've been following you for awhile. Can you please summarize how you run fury?
Which pairs?
Which GMT times for each pair?
Any settings changed from base fury settings?
Any other info we would need to know to run fury?

I'm running fury 1900 - 2100 GMT on GBPUSD but I'd like to start running it with different pairs/times if any others work. I'm doing some demo testing but would be really interested in what's working for you? Also I have only changed 1 setting. I've changed max spread to 2.5.

One other question if you know this. If Fury opens a trade at let's say 2000 GMT, then that trade is still open after it finishes it's trading window at 2100 GMT - and spread goes up to let's say 8.0 pips. Will Fury close the trade if it hits TP or will it wait until spread reduces to max spread then try to close the trade if the trade is still in TP?

Thanks!!

@Pay10 It looks like they changed how MyFXBook works with MT4. Just tried to attach a new demo and its all different. That might have something to do with it.

I use Hostwinds and have been rather pleased. A couple times Windows has updated and I had to go in and pull the MT4s back up but not sure how anyone gets around that at all. Im looking to also set up a system from home that runs a bunch of demos, but the benefit of using a VPS closer to my brokers server is speed.

@jjdenver I think all of your questions can be answered on this very thread. Just go back through em. The one thing I'd say is that if max spread is too low, it will never trade. Gotta find that happy medium given your brokers spread, etc... Also, the trade will stay open until Trailing Stop is activated, take profit is hit or stop loss. I personally don't think I've ever had a TP hit by spread increase but I could be wrong too. One 'pro tip' is to set the EA to trade during times where the spread is low. for me, I've tried all sorts of different times (just before Tokyo, 1-3 hours before daily close) and the best times, for me, are the last couple hours of the day if not THE LAST hour(Ex: my brokers daily close is GMT +3 = 23:00-23:59. You dont want 24:00, though). Good luck. Share results when you have em. We try and help all we can here.

Hi there,

I've been using FF for years. Stopped for a bit after hurricane harvey hit us. Got an email about V2, so I cranked it back up again.
@Pay10 I noticed your EUR/USD trades have a TP of 15-20 pips. Did you set it to hard TP or are you trailing?
Did you change any other default settings for EURUSD?

I'd love to get more out of the positive trades so that if and when it hits SL it's not such a hit to my account.

Thanks,
Lorraine

I noticed mine took a trade for EuRUSD on MOnday, Labor Day, but yours didn't @Pay10. Did you close for the holidays?

First initial impressions....clearly not native English speaking(not that that means anything). I've seen several of these before in other places. A little pricey.

I'm def pro good EA's but until this first investment pays for itself in full, I'm not looking to get another; however, this seems like a decent resource for potential good ones.

My main theory behind EAs is as an investment tool. Why let a few thousand dollars sit in a bank account and collect peanuts(small interest amounts) when it could be used to actually make money. Good EAs seem logical. I think FX Fury was a good investment.

How many EAs do you have right now? Do you own any of the ones you just linked?

I agree, mine Fury has paid off well for me so far, I want to put some of the money into another EA and see how it goes.

I have seen a few sites like this too, but idk if i trust it.

I found a website a long time ago that had like 40+ EAs, they were all cool but none worked. They did, however, get me interested in all this and helped me find FF. Now I want to look at buying another one, but I need to find one with some reviews or something. All the ones on that site look too good to be true. They all have made 500% in a little over a year. I mean I know I did that here haha but I don't trust people so seeing it is hard to believe especially since they have no reviews, and no one is talking about it on myFXbook. Their myFXbook page says it is a real account and its live trading, but not a single comment or anything about it.

Most of those big return bots are grid and martingale. They are huge risk of account blowout. A lot of times the owner of the EA will run it on different accounts then post the best account and often even turn off the EA once it gets good results so they don't show a big blowout that may come. For example I just lost $120 on a grid EA last week. If I hadn't turned it off it'd be in even bigger drawdown. That was 12% of a $1000 account lost in a couple of days with more that would have been lost if I didn't turn it off. You can run them but don't put them on a big account and risk losing it all. That's my opinion anyway.

@jjdenver thanks for that input. I usually check on martingale but not grid. What exactly is grid, I know about martingale.

A bunch of those EAs I got for free we're grid and martingale strategy.

What EAs do you own/run?

What VPS are you guys using? I think I want to switch. AWS is hard to use and it is laggy and I poay like $17+ a month.

just google grid trading - easier than having me try to explain it. The best EA's that I've run are fury, and flexea with conservative setfiles only most setfiles there are too risky. I run a few from ebay but so far none are impressive. There is a new one piranha from ebay that seems good on demo. I hear GPS is pretty good but not 100% sure. There are some on MQL5 store that I plan to test out as demos. good luck and you can join lastigeman discord i think we need more people there who are willing to share info with other aspiring robot traders. not yet enough analytical people unfortunately.

discord i'll let you know. i'm a bit unhappy with that discord because there are not enough channels created for what we need and a few other problems like spamming from marketers. i may create my own discord server.

about coinexx - not sure if you are aware but if you deposit $5k USD with them they give you free VPS - it's big enough to run 2 instances of MT4 - at least that's what I run - and it's at their server center I think so it's fast connection. Really a fast connection is a bit overrated. Fury won't perform better with 200ms server response vs 800ms server response imo. I am also using lqdfx - those seem to be 2 brokers with good spreads and low commission with ECN processing that have overall positive reviews.

Gotcha. We can keep up the convo here.

Agreed on the speed thing, really, but given the choice of the middle of America or closer to the brokers servers...I personally want to be closer to them.

I didn't know that Coinexx gave a free VPS with a certain deposit amount, no. I actually was asking about perks for higher deposits via their chat the other day and they basically told me there were none. I'll look into that more. Thanks for the info. You'd think $5000 would get ya more than about 2 instances of MT4. I am running 8 currently on my VPS. Some longer term, some shorter term.

Whats your strategy thus far @jjdenver ? Or did you say already?

@OTheFuture @jjdenver

i use FOREX.com for my trades and Amazon Web Services for VPS. I fet charged about $17. What do your VPS's cost?

im still running the same pairs and time frame, it seems to trade for me usually around noon central I think. I will try to pay attention, or it could be 2pm central.

I have a discord I made for trading and video games but its virtually unused. if you guys want to jump in there we can hare and try to build it up. I think it is literally empty of people though so it could be a slow start.

Saw this question and not sure if it was answered but if your settings are different, like maybe, his 'Max spread' or 'max slippage' was different, that could be why.
