Blue Hogs is a breathing hedging system. The size of the hedges adjust themselfs to the dynamics of the current market. The system has already been forward tested on a starting balance of £500 and the strategy is proven, however I want to run some 'stress tests', keep reading and I'll explain...

Blue hogs is traded on a high latency connection (an old netbook at home), the broker is on the other side of the world, average ping times to the brokers server are around 400ms, that's when the netbook isn't swapping to disk as it only has 256mb of RAM.

MT4 has deliberatly been set to the lowest priority, the wireless connection frequently disconnects as I have removed the ariel and it only has 2 bars. Looking through the MT4 logs shows frequent outages, often more than 20 per day.

I do all of this to create terrible trading conditions and ultimately demonstrate the strategies ability to survive.

Blue hogs was born out of badluck, my initial strategy lost nearlly £1k due to a near 2 hour power outage, the original strategy is sound however I am seeking safety more than profit so I created blue hogs. Setting a hard stop is not safety in my opinon as you still end up loosing money. Blue hogs can be left without a connection for days and survive major pip movements, just how many pips is the purpose of creating this demo account. If it fails then it's back to the drawing board, if not then I'll move it onto a live account.

If you see this strategy hasn't been updated for days, it's because I've cut the netbooks internet connection. ;-)

Blue Hogs will eventually be offered in 'managed account 2'. Blue hogs has a high maxDD (30%) however the hedging nature of this strategy affords safe trading. It can protect the account against violent market swings. As we have seen this is now a common theme in EUR/USD.

My managed accounts are hosted on a VPS next to my broker house, just in case any of you were worried.

Blue hogs lost out to a highly trending market. This experiment has been very valuable in allowing me to assess draw downs in relation to pip movements and I now have a crystal clear vision of how equity protection will be applied to protect the balance and profits. Since my first post I've discovered a way for stop losses (equity protection) to be used in a profitable way by allowing blue hogs to place them around supply and demand zones.

I will restart this experiment with equity protection in the next few days, the strategy has proven that it is capable of producing absolutely phenominal profit now it just needs taming via EP.

Stay tuned.
