I don’t know why the EA isn’t working properly for you. I have used it a lot and never had any such issues. I suggest trying it out properly on Strategy Tester for today, and all other days you’ve had issues with it, to see if you get similar or ...

it is all in the settings. Your max orders was obviously set to 3 or more and the lot multiplier must be set to 2x, which it will do after a fail only. All these settings can be customised. I’m still not back in the game for the time being.

Looks like it took the FTSE break too late, based on your chart. The break happened just after 8am but according to your chart the EA didn’t take the trade until much later. My guess is that when the initial break happened, price gapped up without ...

Hey I get the idea behind building positions, but some of your positions are taken at the same time, for the same size. Not sure of the logic behind it. Not criticising, just trying to understand. Thanks.

Trading hours should always be set to after the range end time. If you don’t, the EA will reset at midnight and start taking trades based on the range that was established yesterday. so if your range ends at 7:59am, the trading start time should be ...

Hi all. Sorry for my prolonged absence - we recently lost a loved one and it has been a tough few weeks. With regards to the EA sometimes not taking trades or taking a trade late, there could be many reasons. For example spread widening, price ...

Agreed

I was hoping for the 12-4am high to break and for price to hit 1.40 for an excellent shorting opportunity but doesn't look like GU is prepared to go there yet.

EU has broken a low on the 30 minute chart (highlighted). Expecting some retracement and then further downside?

I'm not so good at spotting these normally, but this one does look pretty solid. Thanks Lem.

Not quite there yet TS. Passed my first 100k challenge. Doing the verification on that account now. And also running a second 100k challenge using range break methods.

Thanks for sharing Claudia. You are putting a lot of time and effort into this and it is much appreciated. Would I be right in assuming that for each break, you will only take 1 break, if that makes sense? Let’s use AJ as an example. If the first ...

Are you saying that 1) in all of last year, there's never been a day where you have had losses? Or 2) after 3 positions, you will cut your losses at some point?

Trade copying must automatically get disabled around news release, which means although the trader might have caught a news spike and made money, FTMO would not have made a dime at that moment. And to pay the trader, they would have to pay from ...

UC made a higher high and lower low on the same 4 hour candle as far as I can see. And overall the trend seems bearish (seeing a lot of lower lows to the left). Is it not more likely that the bearish trend will continue after some retracement? Still ...

Indeed it was good today. Although yesterday was a fail. I'm still in the negative overall as I have had more fails than wins on this so far. How are all the other breaks going Claudia?

Excellent. Still going with 150 point range and 10 point buffer?

If it does drop, I can't see it dropping below 1.3750 today. But you never know, it is Friday after all.

They are going to have to increase the challenge fees to pay for those kind of profits

Expecting a bounce at around 1.3766 as well which is approx. 50% retracement of the move up from this morning.
