Dislikedi have an awesome EA for triangular arbitrage, his idea depends on watching market till it found a chance to enter with a triangular positions but there is one problem, it some times open wrong positions ( open just one or two positions ) and it dose not close it till you close it manually and that may cause in some of loss a {image}{image}{image} {file}Ignored

you've sold more Aud and has it calculated for base account currency?
then we also have to assume your brokers execute all position closes for the same price? are you running a 20ms connection or 200ms? because too many ways to slip you up there
and all for less than a pip gain? to make money you need to run this hard on one broker 24/7 and it will raise eyebrows
imo for it to work you need to be arb against two brokers for price inefficiencies so that one account will lose but your other broker account is gaining more, so they can't know about each other otherwise (like others say) they will shut you down.. seems like a lot of messing around and too much can go wrong
that said though, if it is true aritrage then it is risk free and anyone who finds risk free money is going to code if to the general public? wishful thinking but would love to see someone post results, risk free arb is the holy grail after all
