This statement can be easily proved by using kelly criterion. If you play around the original kelly criterion, the equation becomes: where f = optimal fractional betsize pf = profit factor w = win rate as you can see in the equation, given the same ...

Just saw your question. I seldom login here nowaday and hopefully it is not too late. The 1st argument is 0 because Zero means the event of consecutive y losses in x number of trades does not happen at all. Since we want to know the probability of ...

(Been a lurker for long long time... ) Your data seems incorrect. Let's take CHFJPY chart in your 1st post for example, there is zero 8-consecutive up candle. If so, how could it possible to have one 9-consecutive up candle? Anyway, consecutive up ...

You are not alone. Their spread is quite terrible recently while spread for other brokers remain relatively stable. I just cant believe my eye that their usdjpy has 2pip spread and that is yet to include commission. I hope FXOJafar or their ...

The tab is there now but it was not there when I look at it yesterday. I think they maybe just accidentally removed it.

Hi FXOJafar, Does Fxopen AU still offer standard ECN account where the commission is 5 units of base currency per lot? I noticed the details of standard ECN has been removed from url . Thanks.

Hi there, long time no see. How r u? Yes this is the one that i am looking! Thank you very much! You are my angel!

Justin, May I know what is the progress right now?

I didnt make any trades today but Free EXN seems fine.

Justin, I apologize if I sound like a troll. I was a bit frustrated when my TP should be hit but it didnt because of the freeze. MB managed to fix the freeze problem for PFL-MT4 in just a few days but it takes quite long this time. So I was curious ...

I wont be surprise for your slippage because there was a spiked. Slippage caused by high volatility is normal and acceptable. However i could not accept it if the slippage is caused by platform freeze. Imagine that the mt4 freeze and the quote ...

Guess what? PFL-MT4 did not freeze, it was just Free EXN. So the problem should be caused by the LP's feed because if one of their LP fails to update quote then the negative spread will happened on MT4 and therefore freeze the platform. It is ...

Freeze again!

EURUSD on Free EXN freezing again now. This problem remain unsolved since reported a week ago.

I suspect the slippage for stop order is higher compare to limit order because MB's LP can reject your order if the price moving fast therefore sending back your order request again and again until it is accepted by LP. I do not have much slippage ...

I have done this kind of test over thousand of trades. Basically you can expect an average positive slippage of 0.2-0.3 pip per trade for limit order on EURUSD.

The timestamp of the tick chart does not same with the timestamp of M1 bar. The screenshot actually showed the last 500 ticks only.

The spread of CADJPY on Armada demo account widen to 16pips after the CAD retail sales announcement and last for 16minutes. Can anyone confirm whether this is happened on live account too?

How about the spread during news announcement? Will it goes as high as Oanda's spread, like 10-20pips? Slippage is completely understandable during high market volatility. However if there is no 'last look' from LP, then the slippage should be ...
