Effective November 10th, began trading manually. Prior to this was an MQL EA called Microbot. I do not recommend it.

I don't like the way MyFxBook calculates drawn down. I was down $80 on a $600 account. That is not 58%

Hi Rob,
I use a limited doubling in lot size to average down my trades if the trend is solid. Only to 5 grid levels. I do not use an individual trade stop loss, but an EA that will close all trades on the account if overall equity reaches a certain amount.
I just don't like the fact that myfxbook calculations are not accurate.

It works VERY well as long as I do not make a mistake on the entry like I did tonight on the AUDUSD. We will see if my averaging down program works to get me out of this one.

Was able to close out the AUDUSD trade for a small loss. Better safe than sorry.

Now I am thinking of dropping the averaging down strategy. It uses a light version of the martingale, and since my trade entries are accurate 80% of the time. Why place the extra risk?

Found a bug in one of my EA's - one was affecting the other. Had to close some trades Manually for loss. Shame.

I've been reviewing my trades and it is great when the martingale style recovery works, but the risk to reward is just not there. Once again, I am in the 5th level of the grid hoping to recover. I don't like the idea of 'hoping' to recover. When I look at my history and see time and time again winning trades where the martingale was not necessary and the session's trading would have resulted in 100 pips in gains if I had only used a standard stop loss of say 30 pips where that level would have been the first level of the grid.

Not to mention that without having to spare my equity for the eventual martingale, I can trade with higher lot sizes

Since the first level of the grid was set at 30 and was rarely used, I start there

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the martingale when it does well. I just think when it goes bad, it goes REALLY bad.

But, I will still play with it on this account. I changed the martingale calculation to 1.7 which allows me to keep 7 grid levels. But saying that, I think I will only keep it until I gain more confidence in my entries, then drop it. It is a nice security blanket to have...until it all goes bad. LOL
