Hi,
Is this account currently trading with the latest version 3.0 by default settings? Or still using the previous version?
Thanks,
SIM

Yes I have been trading with version 3 for this week on this account.
There was a bug in version 3 early in the week that was making GMU miss some trading opportunities.
This has since been fixed before releasing to all members.

Hi
For which pairs is it used or more suitable?
You can see it by observing hes statistic.
For odrisb, i succest you to remove rest of the pairs but GU and if you want a higher risk, when just increase the risk on GU.
Other pairs surely will not perform even close to GU on long term. This kind of EA is meant to use very low risk because otherwise it will kill your account if strong and rapid trend comes.

hello,
i am testing the free version. does anyone a good setting file to share? i can't understand the autoprofit function, because it's impossible to manually set the profit target. even if i put -false- it manages trades as it wants and doesn't care of the value that i choose.
can anyone help me with the right setting for a conservative trading?

Vit for your information I burnt a 500 Eur account with standard settings and 100:1
I have a second account that is now in deep DD (65%) and if the price goes below 1.56 I am busted.
So you need 1000 Eur or USD and standard setting but with Asian multiplier only at 1.

OH, it just touched 1.56, i hope your account could resist.
thank you for sharing your experience, in fact i think this is a very risky system and sooner or later, no matter what your settings are, it will burn your account.
anyway i will keep it only on demo for more time.
are you using the free version?

This is IndoRun! It's a free EA.

Just Checking! I downloaded the Basic to try it out on a demo account and it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I thought I read here that it should be left on default settings.
I have it on a FinFX demo account, on GPBUSD 15minute. (I can't use GoTrader, since I'm in the US) The demo is set to allow live trading by EAs, as is the Common tab on the EA Properties... and the Expert Advisers button is "pushed." It's showing the "happy face" in the upper right with GridMeUpFX beside it, but nothing else in the chart. Shouldn't there be some indication that the EA has activated?
Something I need to change?
Thanks for info!

No I am using the paid version. My account is in a critical situation now, almost no margin, so it has 99% chance to blow.
Even if it recovers it was the last time I used a grid system with or without Martingale. They simply will blow the account sooner or later. I knew this but got a bad run on my first account and now on the second.
Good luck for all the users

If you're not over trading and have a decent starting balance and the LossStopOut is set I don't understand how GMU can blow your account. You also need a broker with a good spread on the GBP/USD pair. If the spread goes above 3 often I would not use GMU. I would recommend a broker with an avergae spread of 2.3 or below on this pair.
Never say never!

It is very simple. First buy position opened at 1.60289
I am trading 0,01 lots with standard settings and Martingale after 8 orders.
I have now 0,18 open lots and the last buy was at 1.5834. The last retracement was from 1.56893 till 1.5886 but it was short some 10 pips to close the order. The price is now at 1.55609 so it is just a case of doing the math as I can't priint a screen of the GBP chart here.
My broker has a spread lower then 2.3 and it is not a market maker

I would say for your account size the LossStopOut is too high.
Once LossStopout is reached 10% of your account balance (this will free up some margin) is closed then GMU continues trading. If LossStopOut is hit again then another 10% is closed. The issue will be that the account is too small to absorb this drawdown and hence you are getting a margin call before the LossStopOut is reached. Even if the LossStopOut is reached on a smaller account balance you may need to raise the LossStopClosePercent so that more than 1 order is closed and hence freeing up more margin (eg set to 20%) so trading can continue.
It looks like a 500 EUR account with a 1:100 leverage is not enough for GMU to absorb when there is a large trend in play 😞

This account was 588 Eur with 300:1 leverage. I have now 72Eur of free margin.
I would say 1000 Eur and Asian multiplier =1

this is a huge trend in action, one of those that burn accounts trading grid/martingale systems.
R/R of these systems is always toot high to be worth.
good luck with your account @istherehope.
keep us updated!

Hi there! I have 2 accts. which are in DD right now. 5k trading at 0.05 and 1k trading at 0.01 with 500:1 leverage. My LossStopClosepercent is 30% and LossStopOut = -400. If the trend continues, is it adviseable to reduce my LossStopClosepercent to 20 or whatever no. you can recommend to avoid margin call.
Your help will be highly appreciated as this is the 1st time I have a huge DD and hate to blow my acccounts.
Tks & brgds,
