Hello, what do you think about GBP Combo? Is this a martingale?

It is not. You can see it yourself.

How can you see it? Why do you know it's an asian scalper?

I think 'Asia' is a Martingale?

do you even know, what a martingale is?

it increases its position size each time it makes a loss

yes the right question is not whether the system is martingale
the right question is whether do you know what does martingale mean

sorry i confused martingale with grid.. :)

Hi guys, i'm not used to autotrading system, i just noticed two GBPAUD trades that weren't copied from two providers, is it because of margin was yellow or because it was two minutes before market closes ?

Some brokers does not take any trades prior to market closing 5mins before or after the next trading day. I faced this issue when using certain broker therefore I switched to another broker that allows to do trading on that period just to be able to follow trades.

Thanks for letting us know about this. I just chat with my broker and realized that it's true that they stop all tradings 5 mins before market closing. Do you mind sharing your another broker that allows it?

do you really think it's smart to trade around rollover, especially maybe with scalpers and low liq pairs? blocking all trading around rollover is a feature invented by some brokers (e.g. the famous global prime) to secure traders from being stopped out due to insane spreads. i would think twice about it.

Is anyone else having issues Ninja Trader in regards to trades not opening? (Probably due to slippage)
Is there any way to prevent such a thing?

Yeah your broker could have different time zone, so it will not open trades as market was closed perhaps.
Or it could have different leverage
Or it could even have different set of pairs for trading.
Can you check the journal tab on mt4?

me. This provider seems squishy for me, as his profile says he made profit today, but if you check his history, he didn't.

Yeah interesting that he made a lot of deposit and withdrawals today as well.... This is quite abnormal behavior... Kinda seems like he is gaming the system...

Im using ICMarket to follow autotrade. So far no issue on copying trades. But ninjatrader seems to have bad drawdown this few days.

Who would you recommend copying here if ninjatrader is not good enough, if you meant people trading around rollover. Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure what you need from me on my journal tab on mt4?

what i meant is, it's critical to trade in the minutes around rollover, so the feature of some brokers to block all trading during this time, is a GOOD thing. not a reason to change the broker.
