I would get out if you have any positions on that. I doubt many are trading it like they were EURCHF - that was a different case altogether.

Odd pair in my opinion

Agreed...just wondering what sort of whippy shit we see in the rest of market during this period...Black Swan was pretty severe and though I doubt this would be an event close to the same proportions, it's worthy of a note.

As for it being an odd pair...I've never even opened a chart on this motherfucker.

This motherfucker is quite seriously better than anything I've ever done...

With the new mods and fixes, and discovering the byproducts of it, is a whole new market lesson to itself!

That!

Is the most valuable part of what will be the next release!

{quote} You do realize there are both aggressive and more conservative settings in the current released version, right? I do get what you are saying...and realize that we are in a large downswing for GA from an M1 perspective...but have you looked at the other strategies available or made a decision as to how you would handle these trades? From my side...I am looking at the Magix Scalper Signal to manage the trade cycles...would be somewhat of a relatively easy code change and then we would only look at in immediate trend cost averaged trades as...

I think the problem is your magic number. Anyway, let Magix explain about it.
In my set up magic number is '0'

Hello Magix,
This is to take your opinion.
In a live account, for RMHC Hybrid 1.2 (lot = 0.01, default set up, auto trade), do you think $2000 account is sufficient for these 7 pairs: GBPNZD, EURNZD, GBPAUD, EURAUD, GBPUSD, EURUSD and USDJPY. Usually these pairs are very active and volatile, so my question is.

Please see my demo trade report attached. I have noticed that the maximum DD was around $300 for this account. Many of the pairs are not active every day.
Your comments will be appreciated very much.
Thanks,

IMO, dont be in a rush to going live, study the EA, stress test it in demo for like for 2,3 month and wait for Magix updates.

This TE is running the old (first?) version.
Running on six pairs on what's left of an old account, only $1000 or so capital. So far it's managed to trade out of a deficit which is encouraging for a grid EA.

Settings seem to be at default...what you can do to eliminate some of the holdings - for future - reduce the number of triggering methodologies you are employing.

Hybrid, Revolution and Xuicide are all being used.

In ranging market, these can all do well...in a wide sweeping market, these can accumulate a lot of positions.

Other things you can do to help remove some risk:
- Increase the Distance Between Trades - Step Order - currently 20 or 2 pips. Increase to 4 or 8 or whatever might make more sense in this case.
- Increase the time delay...it's currently set to 120 seconds or 2 Minutes...work off of a 900 or M15 chart with the same or different triggering.
- Set the Common Properties to Only Long or Only Short based on your Ideas for Market, set Magic Number to 0 and only enable the EA after you've taken a primary trade...
- Work with other select pairs, in their active sessions, that have a tendency to prosper with less risk.
- Work only in Active Sessions with the Appropriate Pairs:
a. GBPAUD, EURAUD, AUDUSD - Only during Sydney Session, close all trades open trades when Sydney is off the Clock.
b. GBPAUD, GBPUSD, GBPJPY - Only during London Session, close all trades at London Closing Bells.
c. EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD - Only during New York Session, close all trades at Daily Roll Over.

Having identical settings on all pairs running in all active sessions really doesn't make much sense. The Market is Dynamic and Range can be dictated by a number of variables.

Work with the information that is most relevant and familiar to you...or run the risk of Larger Draws by keeping Default Settings.

Make Sense?

Magic number can be the same on all pairs.
If you are helping your EA along, keep this set to 0.
If running full auto, the number makes no difference as long as it isn't changed during an open cycle of trades.

I typically do not watch NZD pairs, so I really don't have much to offer on those.

USDJPY can be VERY Trendy and is less likely to play by the rules that govern a No Nedge Strategy..but can still be effective.

Run at default, I've seen my 2 versions of Hybrid with a Combined DD hit to Around $600, GBPAUD and EURAUD being the biggest culprits...

If you are managing your trades with combined logic and are comfortable with this size of DD on a $2000 account, giver a whirl!

Your personal thresholds will be tested on DD...but until you've gotten your feet wet with some actual skin in the game, you can only speculate success.

I do agree with Hezz:

No need to be in a rush, but if you want test some boundaries...open up on a FRESH WEEK and see what develops.

The idea behind the logic on these is so they can be tested on accounts with less than $10k in currency, like most other grid or cost average stratagies. $2k is a lot of money if this is all you have, but a small amount if compared to what others require for risk.

Only you can be the judge on this.

Not that I am interested in going against a major trend on Friday before a Long Weekend...but for those that look for longer-term opportunities... a Well place primary on manual and setting this on a Hourly with a 3600second delay and Xuicidez with a 500 pip profit might start to look good middle to end of next week... {image}
Anybody give this idea a whirl this week?

well done, Hezz PF 7 wow...I got just a PF of 2.15 during London also with SumLotStart on v1.1

Magix had a similar high PF on his Scalper but I thought he was already testing his new "Hyper" Scalper...

PF just increased to almost 9 with the help of GBPUSD, GBPAUD, EURAUD...

Still holding a floating profit on EURUSD.

Hyper is Cost Averaging...can be added any primary triggering including manual...I figured I'd test your settings with the Magix Auto and Xuicidez to see what this would look like on round the clock trading.

It Looks AWESOME!
