Not exactly.

Hey bro
right now both the accounts are quite in drawdown (equity wise), have you seen drawdown like this before or is this the first time you're experiencing? I mean I have been following your systems for 2 weeks but this is the very first time that I saw something like this

No matter how safe you consider it, it still is martingale. You can lose half, full or whatever percentage of equity you set. It is just a matter of time. Tick tok

One hell of a drawdown man

Was it the US election?

Just a small tipp: the SL should be lower than the TP, not higher.

Ouuuch!!!!
'Accelerated loosing'

Told you guys!!!

People are pretty quiet when an account is winning, but love to pile on when an event happens to take away the wins - I love it.

Nevertheless, it was not the US Election, it was not even the Pfizer vaccine announcement, it was a simple matter of not fully understanding and employing the Equity Protection features of the AlphaPro software. There are periodically events that any software is not able to handle well, but had these settings been activated, the account would have taken a acceptable loss, much less than it sustained.

So over the last several weeks, I have not been crying in the corner as some out probably assume. I've been in the lab with my good friends at ElevatedFx and we have designed some outstanding enhancements that are coming out in the next release. I'm currently testing them in private and will let the results speak for themselves as a matter of course.

In the meantime, I have studied and tested the existing equity protection features and adjusted the settings to better handle the NZDJPY type of movements in a much more effective way.

For those in the glory of 'I told you so...' I wish you the best and may God bless.

For those in the camp of advancing the state of the art, continuous learning, adaptation, learning and growth - I salute you!

Seriously this account had trades being held for like 200-300 pip SL this is not even close to being classified as a good system...this is very common with EA's mot of them will fail in the long run.. Never depend on robot for financial freedom, go learn and trade yourself...
