important note about HandsomeJack system:
I`ve made some changes to the logic because my broker trades count limitation is 512, and Jack was operating large amounts of trades (it came to 129 earlier this week). now the trades count is a times less, so it will close much faster, therefore - it won`t loose profit while closing the current trades sequence, and, what is more substantial - won`t reach the trades count cap in this universe. these changes don`t touch the risk management, so generally trading process is the same as earlier, just less trades.
happy trading!

Hello Olaf, do you think that the monthly performance will be less due to the changes?
no, performance is expected to be almost exactly the same - the difference will be just in orders quantity, but the summary lot in each sequence will be the same as earlier. no worries
I understand. Thanks a lot for your answer Olaf.
try out my totally new Botichelli system (new bot works on the same account, instead of failed one). this is something I didn`t look at for a long time - an aggressive scalping.

your new trades don't seem to be reflecting on the signal page. looks like no trades since last year but I can see the trades on myfxbook page, are they the same account?
good point! I`ll check it out
ok, now everything works properly. feel free to subscribe
Hello Olaf,
I am following you on SignalStart. My question now is: I am having an account with leverage 1:200. I see that you are using 1:500. That´s why I am trading with 0.4 risk factor, because I am afraid to get a margincall, if you are increasing your lotsizes dramaticly sometimes. Can I increase my risk factor or should I keep it 0.4?

hi PlanX,
in normal market conditions the 1:200 will be more than enough. but sometimes when market goes crazy, bot tries to escape these unfriendly conditions and uses bigger lots when locking. you better keep the risk factor 0.4 for now and look whether it is enough or not. I just didn`t test it on lower leverages, not sure what to say. or open the account with the same leverage if you can.
cheers

Hi Olaf,
thanks for your honest answer. Good to see, that somebody can say, that he don´t know, IF he don´t know. So I will keep it on 0.4 and see what will happen, if it comes to one of this cases.

*WARNING* during the Dec 15, 2015 - Jan 15, 2016 period the risks will be 5 times lowered on HandsomeJack system
here we go - my new bot named "Botichelli" is here:
https://static.mfbcdn.net/members/olaf_olsen/botichelli/1411070
it will work in parallel to HandsomeJack. despite it made almost 100% in 1.5 weeks, while Jack did 100% after 1 year :D
I am testing Botichelli right now - maybe for 1-2 months, but you may dare to subscribe here:

nice to see you among subscribers :)
that`s because of gap - things are fixed. no trading if gap exists on Mynday on certain currency pair.
