Disliked{quote} OK I got it... but in that case how should we test "profitability" of a certain EA or strategy?Ignored
DislikedHi MT .. couple of questions .. I looked through but couldn't find answer . 1. what is anti martingdale mean in the settings ? 2. if I have a trade opened on a 1 hour time frame and i'm looking at chart and change time frame to say 30 min .. how does this impact what the EA is doing. will it just continue to work the trade that was opened normally ? can it potentially open another trade based on 30 min time frame ? thanksIgnored
Disliked{quote} Hey bro, could you please explain what do you mean by "operation" here?Ignored
Disliked{quote} I don't lose my time (neither my money), I have my own profitable trading systems. I do this in my free time as a research on Martingale idea. There are people who actually make money using a Martingale strategy by withdrawing their profits regularly and repeating this cycle. This is mathematically of my interest.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi blade813, 1. Anti-martingale (or reverse Martingale) is a strategy to add to winners (unlike add to losers strategy of Martingale). When you enable this input setting, then after the first position is opened, if price goes in the profit zone, the EA will open additional positions with the same lot sequencing (and grid size) and at the same time of opening a new additional position, it adjusts the stop losses such that if price reverses and hits the stop losses, the overall profit of the positions will be positive. 2. If you change the...Ignored

Dislikedjust an observation after reading through this thread -- not intended for anyone in particular it seems many want to jump on the "martingdale will blow your account" bandwagon here. while I do agree that a true strategy like that could indeed blow your account, so will many other kinds of bad trading strategies. if you don't use good money management, and don't have some sort of viable strategy, you probably will eventually lose all of your money, no matter how you trade. so rather looking at this as a true "martingdale" strategy, think of it as...Ignored

DislikedHi Blade, I agree with you. I think that trading with this kind of strategies implies 2 questions: - the level of drawdown a trader can sustain (for instance let's say 20% drawdown?) - the time you need to recover this drawdown with the profit you have for every cycle. Let's say I've been hit with a 20% drawdown on a cycle. If the strategy usually gives me a 0.5% daily gain (remember, don't be greedy). I will need around 2 months to recover the drawdown and return to the equity peak. I can reduce the available max drawdown, but I will obviously...Ignored
Disliked{quote} That is not how the EA works. Its not meant to recover stopped out losses. If you are using stop losses then you will never recover.Ignored
