I was about to dump this EA last week before it finally made some $$ again. I realize that I have it set for large moves only and I am happy with that. I am thinking like blessings to move my first couple of levels to small reentries of 200 pips or less, then on greater than 3 moving them to 240+ pips dependent upon currency.I think it is unrealistic that I will get 10% per month as projected on this EA, however, my drawdown has been really low (around 3% or so most of the time). I will have to spend more time figuring out which currencies and where to scale up. So far GBPUSD is the big wi...

Dumped GBPNZD as it is just too perfect to destroy this EA. It moves quickly, stops (for an entry), moves quickly stops, etc...I was at 12 levels and only 900 pips and it could easily move 2,000, so I decided to bail after a 38% retracement on the last pivot. :) I have also been exiting and doing some manual manipulation on some currencies. :)

Best pair to use it on in my opinion is gbpusd. It has the most up/down movement and if you look at my summary is the most profitable with the least drawdown. Worst is GBPNZD or GBPCAD/GBPAUD. Anything that trends heavy with the market.It is quite simple in a way.It figures out the trend using SMA/RSI. Default when a certain MA cross occurs it reenters if the drawdown is greater than X pips. X pips is decided upon the 'matrix' you have specified. By default 25,25,25,25,50,50,50,50,100,100,100,100,200,200,200 I believe (15 levels). It is funny, GBPNZD just missed TP which are dou...

I was doing the same, but gave up too early. :) I ended up giving in to the bears talk and gave me a bit of drawdown! :) I figured it was bottom or close to. Good trading though! Awesome jobs! :)

Well, I put GBPNZD on my list of pairs to be traded and thus far, I am finding it to be a bit 'hairy'. (To be removed upon close)I was warned not to use it, but thought I would give it a try as the backtests worked out OK. However, due to large spreads, it missed closing out several lower level trades and I think I am at Level 11 now. Much higher and sooner than I expected. All other pairs are working perfectly. I have another 20K I can wire into this account immediately if I get close to issue with DD. So far only at 6% DD or so. :)

Hey, this does look good. I always struggle trading this pair and if this is a grid trader, then I am curious how as my grid traders all blew up on this currency pair! Good work! Keep it going! :)

Soeren,It is good to be skeptical I believe if you are looking at it for an investment. But to criticize just off the merits of your OWN limitations is a bit challenging. I have personally seen people bring in over 100% per day trading futures consistently. So, you say, "Well, if that were me, then why would I do all the things that they do... etc..".Well, they spend their time trying to help people get a mindset wrapped around making 100% per day IS INDEED possible. So, they don't trade every day, they aren't aggressive in their trading. This company could be a scam. I...

I agree..... If the investor doesn't understand the risk... I guess that is how a signal provider would maybe stop that in a way, but you can always rig a martingale into an ea with just more orders on currencies.I personally like MARTINGALE, however, it isn't for everyone and I do only 1/10 of my reserve. I can easily get out of it. To get 30% per month is wishing for trouble... :)Grid traders, martingales, this approach, that approach, I guess I haven't seen a whole lot that works well in FX yet. So far scalping futures has been the truly only less risk option to make a qui...

I guess you watched a lot of Bugs Bunny as a kid. :)Will keep track of your EA. Everyone wants to be a money manager, but so few actually want to earn a living off THEIR OWN trades. I wonder why that is.... I would think the first goal is to earn a living off of the trading (which YOU may already be doing), then offer it to others?That is my goal at least. I am almost there, but mainly due to futures trading, not forex. 🙄

I like how you made more $$ in May while everyone else was eating their shorts! :) Can you share any info?

I find it very interesting that several people on this site 'market' for investors through their amazing returns but yet always have to hide everything AND DEMO!!!The crazy thing is it probably works! I know I would have fallen for it and it frustrates me that there isn't a big warning above any comments like "I do managed accounts" that says, "THIS USER IS DEMO ONLY AND PLEASE REALIZE THEY ARE NOT INVESTING THEIR OWN DOLLARS NOR HAVE SHOWN GREAT RETURNS INVESTING AS THEY ARE LEADING YOU TO BELIEVE". Here Sir, put your 50K down on my DEMO account! haha.... ...

Hey Taz,I always see you on FF. What are you trading here if you don't mind me asking. Your backtests are always really nice. :)I thought you were a kiwi, considering.... Or, maybe you just live in US?Gil

I have also done the playing with smaller TF's. I think it could be very very profitable. It is a lot of work and my experience was that gbpusd was the safest for such. I had an EA that was running a martingale type deal on 5m and it was great and only had one blow up. It used stops though instead so you didn't always get entered on a fast market.I will do the same and play with the grid size some more, but I had given up since it always blew up. I didn't think about changing mart factor.Hedging is interesting, but not sure on how useful. Every time I test it, it doesn't ...

Yohanes,Sorry to have offended you. I will not post in YOUR account. Good luck and thank you for sharing. Nothing wrong with "NOT BEING RICH ENOUGH", I know after a tough cycle that very few are these days! :) Good returns, and thank you for opening up. I am hoping more will follow your lead.

I think maybe 1% is a little optimistic! :) :)You are spot on the leverage. However, I don't need as much leverage the way I trade (some items), but I do use it. It helps me get through the tough spots without stress. :) I guess if you have too many multiple tough spots and your leverage is very high... then... :(

Or, it could be he deposited more funds into his account. :) Possibly managing other people's money as well. But, the way this forex world seems to work, I would guess maybe you are right.

B3 v3.6.5 dans Systèmes de Trading Jul 04, 2010 at 13:45

I guess I am probably using less leverage per account orders etc... If I did it high risk I am averaging about 30% per month with no problems or even higher. But, like you said, hitting EP is going to happen.I don't use EP or max DD, as I share the whole account. I limit EURJPY and GBPJPY to BE TRADE @ 5 or more. I have backtested and this reduces drawdown considerably. I have also adjusted grid settings, but it typically blows up under backtest. He seems to be only using 3 pairs which are 3 of the safer pairs in my opinion, however, USDJPY had some problems earlier in the year. I a...

Maybe I am naive, but considering an anomaly of world war III, then I would think 7% would be quite easy with the right leverage and foresight. If you are trading a small sized account. I guess the problem is when you are trying to trade 10M account, then anything you do will impact the market if you have only a couple strategies so I guess more difficulty is ahead for larger accounts.
