{quote} Friends! It is very unfortunate, however, the results of the trade gridfxtrader are accidental. I traded on this pair, with similar settings and constantly turned on the grid when it stopped (as a automatic trading). Result: Drawdown on the account of -28% (max. 20 orders) !!! The grid can easily not reach the minimum profit and continue to "stretch" ..... in both directions. Last week there was recoilless upward movement, then down .... in both directions a lot of orders were not closed .... -28% drawdown. I just want to warn the others...
I am only checking the account in the morning and evening to see if I need to open any new grids so that might explain the different results. I am having some drawdown due to my computer Thursday night restarting leaving the platform shut down and the EA not running. Next week will be interesting to see if it can recover. Here's where I am at since opening the account on 1/26/18.

could it provide a setting for ease of testing? Because it would have many possibilities of combinations ... This would make a test pattern ...

can you make the break even auto? so we dont need to press button manually?
and if you add new buy order after it touched the break even it would be the best trend catching ea

Hi yoursername,
I'm testing EA on live account. Once I close the core order, the rest orders also closed following it. Besides, I can intervene the individual order (which is not the core order). Could you might think, the core order also can be closed without bothering the rest orders?

Thank you.

That's a good EA, I've been waiting for v1.8 with BBBBSSSS style so bad. ) I'm trading with:

Lot size: 0.02
4 pips space between orders
manually
RR= 35:50

But I have a big problem when it's automatically close all orders once it hits $-7.34 or overnight trade, I dont know why. Is it about expiry of grid orders?
Here is the second result, pretty positive, the 1st one is approx. +$5.00.

One more question, once automatic and start button are on, the grid will trade follow the trend? or on which criteria it bases on?

Thank you once again Yousername! and wish you guys have a nice trade.

P/S: i'm trading on real account

I am running a buy grid and sell grid simultaneously on both EURGBP & AUDNZD. Results for 1/8 - 1/12 are attached. The lot size is set for .1 lot for each EA. {image} {image}
hi gridfxtrader, may i know where do you get that model of chart? it looks unfamiliar to me.
forex is better than cryptocurrency, trust me.

Hi, I am currently trying that cool work. I realized when using BUY 1XX and SELL XX1, clicking BUY GRID it opens as expected buy stop orders but when then clicking SELL GRID it shows an alert saying "There are opened orders". Is there a reason I can't open a sell grid while a buy grid is already opened?

Hello. Thank you for a great grid trading tool, much appreciated!
Would it be possible for you to share the simple one that you use yourself (just with 111 and 101 grid style), and have the info box on the right with the option to expand/minimize it?
Thanks!

I will post again since I have gone through the whole thread and have learned a lot.
1. I am testing V1.9 from post #486 - does the grid trades nicely. It's very good for less technical people as they are able to change settings on the settings window without using commands, and it reflects in the info box on the right.
It doesn't have some good functions that you developed later: a. broker commissions included in the TP; b. option to hide/show buttons and info box; c. economic calendar.
2. Then I came to conclusion to test out V1.966 BETA from post #1024 since it had a working calendar (though it shows the events 1 hour earlier than the actual local time). BUT the spread analysis doesn't work correctly on it - on V1.9 it works fine (stops from placing a grid if the spread is higher than what we defined). I didn't use later versions as the economic calendar didn't work on them.
My questions:
1. Is it possible to include broker's commissions in TP AND the show/hide option for buttons and info box on V1.9? If yes - great, if not, then:
1.1. Is it possible to fix Spread analysis, calendar timing and show/hide buttons on V1.966BETA? If yes - great, if not - still thank you for all that you have done so far!

Thank you!

Hello - I am looking to see if anyone has ever had the issue I am having with the flexygrid1.9 on MT4. I am unable to view the text in the boxes to execute trades and the information in the upper right hand corner is running into each other. I have pretty much uninstalled everything (Flexygrid, MT4 terminal etc.) and reinstalled everything again to no avail. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I have been attempting to resolve this issue for weeks. I have uploaded what the chart looks like when I use flexygrid hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I have even contacted my broker and they advised they don't support EA's.

Hi there,
I am having the same issue as FMedina posted above - the text on my flexygrid 1.9 version in MT4 box in upper right corner is overlapping so I can't read the text. If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, it would be much appreciated. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still it's impossible to read.

Dear Yoursername, came across your thread. Great post on the EA as I'm looking for similar one. Unfortunately, the one I'm looking for not in your EA configuration. Would it possible to include one more Sell Limit, Buy, Buy Limit EA ? Also in all the EA would it be possible to choose Buy/Sell as 1st trade. Tq for your consideration.

This thread will be about my EA Flexy Grid. It's called Flexy because I want it to be Flexible, I can place the buy/sell grid manually or automatically. Personally I use it manually because I like to have control. I'm smarter than this EA, the EA doesn't take account of other variable i.e. News and what I'm seeing over my eyes and head. Manual Flexy Grid {image} Automatic Flexy Grid. When you click the Manual button and it becomes Automatic button in green color, you should see a screenshot like that below. In order to start the EA to trade automatically,...

I going to try this again on a $5000 demo account starting on 03/03/19 on the AUD/NZD pair for both long & short grids. Will check grids in the mornings and afternoons CST. Will post my results at the end of every week.

Goal: 50% before reaching max risk
Max Risk: 25% of initial starting balance
