DO NOT WAIT AND WAIT AND HOPE FOR THE TRADES TO GO IN PROFIT, TAKE ACTION, TAKE A LOSS AT THE MINIMUM.
Yup.

Thus the breadcrumbs left ->HERE

All versions of the Hybrid do view the immediate M1 trend under their own independent perspective.

Stop Loss...Well...I don't believe in them per se...not that I don't believe that they exist...more to the point that I just don't believe in using them. Setting an arbitrary number for a threshold of pain that results in loss, as a market strategy and in my opinion, is total fucking lunacy as much as Holding your Breath and Crossing your fingers. This isn't to say that you MUST wait until profit comes back...just appreciate what the market...
If working with either of the templates provided, with or without pivots and you view the Market as a SHORT market, why not select "Only Short" for your EA - Converse for Longs.

If the Market Reverses, there is the "Cross your Fingers and Pray" approach, or there is cutting losses when you view market is no longer in your favor.

Market goal isn't always prosperity...it always is "Live to Fight Another Day".

My test at the depot in 16000$ shows good results, the maximum drawdown of 10%....7 currency pairs to work with. With a small Deposit there is nothing to do.....

Guys what are your thoughts on the most ideal pairs for using the EA?

Is it more active pairs with a high ADR, or less active pairs with low ADR, or a mix of both?

Some pairs have over 100 pip daily move, while others only have 40-50 pips daily moves. Which do you think would be better suited to using the Hybrid EA's?

I ask this as I'm wondering perhaps by selecting only certain pairs we can maximize the potential results that can be achieved, and minimize DD.

I'm currently using a carefully selected balance of 5 pairs, (I removed all CHF and NZD pairs, they are bad news lol) and I've seen how even these 5 pairs can get caught up and get into some serious draw. Getting into DD on a pair that moves over 100 pips a day, can put a lot of stress on the account, whereas if it was on a pair that moves only 50 pips a day, that would be a lot less draw.

Perhaps by using only specific low volatile, low ADR pairs we can reduce these kinds of situations from happening?
Truth is like poetry. And most people f*cking hate poetry.

Do we need a live trade thread?

A little rule and pair guidance?

We all have the same rules...but given time and margin and preference, we may not always be exactly the same.

So...

For the live trading, manual guidance, do we need a thread to keep us all at the same pace?

I mean, since I am in the commercial section already, could just go full tilt and add in my offer for full trade service...clone your account to mine and then...

But!

I think we'd all be happier learning our own way through the woods...

Right?

NOPE.Just feel like little red riding hood..lol.

So, maybe both approach collective and individual.

Collective with a chunk for charity to keep up with the spirit maybe ??

ok : for those that like to crunch numbers. Pairs traded 4 : AUDJPY,EURCAD,GBPUSD,NZDCHF ....all 8 currencies only ONE time.
From 16 may to 15 June with V1.1 0,01 grid. From then on ALL IN with Sum lot.

Yes, for the live trading, let us have a collective and common guidance.
Simultaneously, individual approach can also be adopted for those who wanted, as stefdek opined.

Hi,

The test report that gives very low relative draw-down is meaning-less. It is only for the closed trades....and that will be the case always.
We cannot take a decision by looking at the percentage of relative draw-down.
See attached report where the relative draw-down is 1.60%. Looks very good.....But the floating P/L is 4 times (loss) more than the closed P/L. Obviously, the account is in trouble.

For a small Deposit, you can use one of the pairs marked in the screenshot as a priority. Version 1.3 works on them just fine!

Well, the problem is visible, you are using other pairs .... very different currency pairs are recommended

Hey All...

Posted my Set File for the Stochs 2 EA on post one. - Magix Stochs.zip

This is what I am running on the Magic 7 pairs, M1 chart.

And as far as goes, I was correct...

It is kicking ass on my RevNN account that is working with almost 3x as many pairs.

Will be looking to convert my Rev account to Stochs 2...and see how this works out on a much broader scale.

Happy Humpday!

Rushamg,
I didn't mean to blame the EA or any currency pairs.
What I am trying to say is, do not make any judgement only by looking at the draw-down of the closed trades.
It is important to see that the losses are not being accumulated on open trades, irrespective of any currency pairs.

Everything gone well just that the broker gave me 1 month demo...
So i started a new one

No special tweaks...just for MACD_levels i have a rule: no less than 20. So i check weekly the MACD and see the value of waves. I used 25-29 depending of pair.

Trade Explorer for Hybrid 1.3 aded to my profile.

Hi. As I can see you use Summ Start lot but I would not recommend you to run with Summ start lot on $500 account. I was very close to blow $1500 with GBPJPY 2 days ago, margin was at one point at 80%.
