Simple rule I learned that has dramatically changed the way I trade: If you're losing money, you're trading too much. Use this logic to consistently find ways to filter out the bad trades you are making. And keep repeating the process. A lot of ...

The forums are full of people that will convince you why certain plans and ideas don't work. Because the people that have working systems keep them to themselves. I don't plan on discussing my WIP with anyone.

Just tried this.. Does not solve this new issue.

I'm now getting the exact same 'uninit reason 8' nonsense.

goldenequity, you may be incorrect. I use 2 sessions, without issue.

I've learned that optimization can make anything look profitable. I actually made several dozens sales of an EA on the MQL5 marketplace because my EA looked so awesome, when in reality it performed like crap. Not that I was trying to scam people, I ...

No problem! It complements my strategy very effectively. I stop opening new positions 4 hours before end of day, and I use my EA to close all positions 30 minutes before end of day Here's the link again for anyone that wants to try it: url Very ...

I had this same issue, fortunately still on demo account. I'm planning on starting on a real account on Monday, and my workaround for this issue is to put my laptop in Airplane Mode before launching MT4. Charts still open even though your internet ...

I made an EA called 'Closing Time' which can run alongside your dashboard trading, on another chart. This way you can set up your schedule however you want, and pick a specific time with Closing Time to close all your active trades. You can specify ...

Martingale is like the ugly girl when you're drunk. Looks really nice at first. Then the next day you realize what a horrible mistake you've made.

Right now, schedule is from 6pm(Sept 23)-2pm(Sept 24). This means, I closeout the day 3 hours before date rolls over, and restart 1 hour after. 6pm New York(Sept 23) = 10pm GMT() (Sept 23) = 11pm London (Sept 23) = 7am Tokyo (Sept 24) = 8am Sydney ...

Also, I'm running a trade schedule on V3Q. Starting at -22:00, ending at 17:59. It works out to 6pm New York - 2pm New York, or Auto-Trading from 2 hours after market open to 2 hours before market close, with all trades closing when schedule ...

My current .set, adapted from jamesT. .set he posted a few days back.

Using V3P CRS midpoint and gap strategy. Basket TP/SL, no trade TP/SL. Very loose limit on maximum number of trades (10), but I'm thinking of making it higher, and only adding on to winning positions. As you can see, I rode one wave for 1200 pips. I ...

Anyone else noticing issues with JPY pairs? I think EA sees all pairs as 5 digits instead of JPY pairs as 3 digits. I notice when I put safety TP/SL at 20 pips for example, it treats it as 2.0 pips for AUDJPY

What indicator provides these details on a panel? Forgive me for asking a question that may have already been answered. I've searched this thread unsuccessfully for my answer.

Very interesting read. I am guilty of being lazy when it comes to position management. I set my SL and TP, then walk away. I'm considering ways I can objectively decide my trade is not succeeding and scale out. Would you consider % distance towards ...

This is an interesting scalping strategy. Easy to glance over charts and find the best setup. It's tough trying to stick to all the rules, so I found having several charts and choosing the best one to follow every few minutes has helped me to stay ...
