Little Martingale EA

  • Dec 14, 2017 3:32pm Dec 14, 2017 3:32pm
i have been using little martingale EA since before my son was born (he's 6 months old now) on demo and soon after he was born on live account and so far it has made only profits. only scare, so far, was when i ihad intervened in a bad way manually at the start . i used v1.4 and default settings. v.13.1 seems very good so far on demo but i use the very basic settings of v1.4. the screenshot here is on a fresh new test on live account that i started oct 9. drawdown has been minimal or not so minimal but for me a 25 percent DD is acceptable

did other people profit regularly with this or its only me ?

Hey Luca,

I am on the demo run since beginning of this month. So far profits are good.
I stopped two demo accounts after Manual intervention before. Now I wait and see.

I am using 1.132 on 15 pairs and with the standard settings.

Most positions and biggest DD I had on the pairs EURAUD and GBPNZD.

Would you tell us which pairs you use?

Thank you

BTW: What is the difference between 1.4 and 1.132?
I know there is an Explanation in the thread, but where?

thanks for the info. 15 pairs seems risky to me unless you have a huge account. the difference between 1.4 and 1.13.2 is in its variety of settings and the code. v1.4 was one of the oldest versions with basic settings-and good- and there are some minor bugs. while v13.2 should be relatively bug free and with more options .i posted v1.4 before in this thread multiple times. if you find it , download it place it on chart and check my settings. i dont know what settings you re using.

i would personally use v13.2 only because it has been fixed and free of bugs probably but with th settings of v1.4 and so i v placed it on demo on a vps and doing well so far. only problem with v1.4 is if you restart the platform due to a computer or vps crash the orders at grid levels are not respected .

i did demo with little martingale EA only for one month in june 2017. aftre that in july i went live, then stopped in august september for some mistakes i did then restarted in october. it s going great

Thank you for your reply.
I have 15 pairs running on the demo account in order to have an idea where I have the biggest DD before going live.
After this I plan to have a look where are the most profitable pairs and which pairs make me afraid the most.

I will use 1.132 because till now ist running without problems, even after restarting the platform (I do this every Weekend)

also in your test check about the spread
that you re given for the pairs by your
broker and very importtant are the swap
fees even if on one side . One Example is
the usd/chf where swap fees are very high and can eat your profits if trades are open too long . A bad pair is also usd/cad

I use the 1.1320 on live account and i had no problem yet. The best thing with this ea is that when you restart the mt4 it does not loose the trades.
1.4 had this problem
1.131 i think has some bug because one time in gbpusd did not close my trade when profit reached 5€

I only use eurusd,usdchf,audusd
I use the default settings as Jonas first introduced and Lucas shows above!

thanks for the feedback. If i put another live account at work it will definitely be with v13 version

everything great with this EA , been testing it demo and live since two weeks after this thread was created

I think i found a bug with 1.132 version. When you put true to suspend trades. The ea halts and does not close trades even if they are in profit.
Can anyone confirm this?
Can eblecker fix this please?

With 1.4 when you put true to suspend trades. The ea trades until it reach its goal which is the profit.
The 1.132 just stop calculations even if trades are in profit
So if you want to stop trades you must either close trades in losses or trade manually

Goodmorning everyone
I can read in English but when I write I am a bad translator, so I will use the google translator, hoping that you can understand the meaning of what I think. First of all thanks to Joancb and Ebeckers, one for opening the thread and the other for the refinement of the EA.
I like Luca1073 use v1.4 and I think I will use v13.1 with the sets identical to v1.4 (post Luca1073 # 749).
I was on demo in October (deposit € 500 - Equity closing demo € 728 -GU / EU / EG original set) and in November (deposit € 5.000 - Equity closing demo € 5.702 -GU / EU / EG - lot GU / EU 0.03 EG 0.02).
In both cases, very low DD, while the maximum floating DD of November was at most € -300 but with equity higher than the initial deposit.
From 11/12/2017 i'm are in live account(ECN leva 1: 200) with an initial deposit of € 2.020 always with lot GU / EU / EG lot 0.02.
Here I have always been with positive equity (or at most under a few euros), a maximum floating DD of around € -150. Last night I closed all negotiations DD undergoing a total of about € -37, I did it to avoid flash problems during the holidays, and in any case now I have a budget of equity = € 2208.15.
I know that Joancb no longer follows the thread and maybe even Ebechers, but I try to launch an idea to improve the Hedge part of the system.
The hypothesis with the original set with 50pips space for 5 steps (etc), TP at 5 € ($ £), with initial lot of 0.02 and multi 1.5.
Now if we have a down trend, a series is exclusively regulated to perform the following steps with BUY orders of a size greater than 1.5 with respect to the previous one; 0.02-0.03-0.05-0.08-0.12-0.18 etc.
The Hedge part will be of orders SELL with a size equal to the martingale (0.02) always closed with a TP € 5 which in my account corresponds to about 30 pips from the beginning of the sequence. When the SELL is closed, an order of the same size will be opened, of TP in cash and always closed below about 30 pips.

But if I in the Hedge part had the possibility of having a SELL order that follows these rules:

1) If the Buy Martingale sequence continues, the Hedge sequence always closes orders at -30pips
2) The lots of the Hedge sequence increase by 0.01 (1st step 0.02-2 ° step 0.03-1 ° step 0.04 etc)
3) In case of tracing the Hedge sequence behaves exactly like the martingale sequence (for ex. order Hedge 0.04 tracing 30 pips, order new sequence Hedge 0.02 etc) with TP total (Martingale+Hedge) of € 5.
4) When the 5th step of the 1st space order is finished, the Hedge sequence resumes when the 2nd space order is activated

What are the strengths:

1) Security: when the Martingale sequence goes strongly against trends, the Hedge sequence helps to reduce the margin required, mitigating the danger of the margin call
2) Greater profit: the Hedge sequence always closes at 30 pips, if in the 1st step I will have a TP of € 5, in the next the TP will be around € 7.50 and so on (increase in balance and relative equity)
3) Other?

What are the weaknesses:

1) Market: if the cross is in a lateral phase for a long time = poor performance
2) Find some programmer who kindly make the necessary coding

Does anyone have any observations to do with what I wrote?

P.S. Merry Christmas

Good morning. I'm very interested in this post.
Congratulations joancb, for creating a nice program.
I ask if it is possible to change. I would like a simple, manual program. example before starting robot, I see a pair eur / usd start buying, put robot and open automatically buy, if eur / usd drops and resumes buy (every 300/400 pip) so on, when to go up and take profit and automatically close robots. can this be done?
Next program
- distant pip (each 300 or 400 pip opening depends on the pairs)
- on and off martilanga
- lots
- profit (when it takes profit and stop robots)
- just sell or buy

with manual assembly this robot (one time profit and close everything) as I indicated above.
since February 2018 I have only deposited 51 €, now almost 4000 € (over 8000%) as you see this picture.
Thank you very much and best wishes happy new year 2018

good (or bad) to know , thanks

I dont think ebeckers will fix this, maybe he s not interested in this thread anymore but i have to admit we have to thank him for everything he has done together with Joan. thanks to both

So far since my live test started months ago i took the decision of substituting a few pairs due to high swap fees and bad market behaviour for this strategy

next pair i will substitute(when all actual trades are closed hopefully) and not use anymore is Aud/Usd. Huge swap fees and trends that are risky and last long lol, not worth it
