At one time, I designed my own grid EA that people raved that it did well. I didn't think so at the time but people were still using it.

I have to give credit to the creator of EG104.038.

I am trying it only in backtest at the moment and still think it is a very good grid EA. I seen it run however many weeks and days ago and my opinion doesn't change. I think that yours is better than mine. Good job!

I wish I understood its logic a bit better. Maybe I would try to create another grid EA as I have been contemplating. However grid EAs in my opinion bring big DD. This one here I would have to say it is kept at a minimal.

"Is there anybody that knows of people using profitable EAs live with little DD say for someone who wants to invest only a small sum of £300 GBP?"

It could be that I already found my winner with EG104 but I am curious to seek other people's opinions?

Hi, did you try this in EG104?

- EA Common Tab: positions = Only Long
- EA Inputs Tab : Grid Pips=30; Dynamic Percent=0; (and if you want every trade to be the same size) Order Multiplier=1.0

Tried this in Strategy Tester and it works, it just logs that the Short orders failed.

What pair are you using it on? Also, is it on a live account?

I was looking at the GBPUSD in backtest and it does very well. Sometimes it takes a big hit in DD but the profits seem to make up for it.

I just created a new demo explorer.
Symmetry.038
25K deposit
Symmetry s_GridSizeFactor=2, s_OrderMultiplier=3, everything else set to defaults.
Let's see how it performs.
Good luck trading!

Hi Bauta,
Do you think you need 25k to trade those 7 or 8 pairs with those settings?

10K may do the work, but it should be tested first.

I disagree...you may not survive with OrderMultiplier=3 on 7/8 pairs and 10K balance, note if I'm right 8 orders (just starting with 0.01 and not 0.02) on just one pairs require 21.87 lotsize ...!
I never lose - either I win or I learn...

a well capitalized account is better. I do see 5K per chart working well.

Have you limited this one not to trade on live account?

My broker says that they allow EA trading.

@bauta

It seems like the "Max. Orders" does NOT work in the new version?

regards!

Hello Bauta thank you for your info. I had asked when you will sell the 038 version for the live account. Since the last version is 037 since April 2017. Thank you and best regards
