7 days of Pivot Pro full auto.
Nice results. Current drawdown and max drawdown is significantly higher than I'd like. There appears to be some issues with lot sizing, unable to change this regardless of my inputs.

Settings are default.

Btw. the only thing i think is going to happen with these leverages and smaller traders who try to make an additional or monthly income from trading is that they will have to stop or invest (probably by lending or even worse credit card use) to be able to trade larger lots in order to make up for the smaller leverage and the higher stop-out. I do really not see any protection at all in these rules.

Been really pondering this whole dealio and as much as I think it's completely proper fucked, I am not sure of the value of the current logic(s), extended out to new members.

There could be an awful lot of Newbs completely roasted given the previous ideas of accounts, gains and margin sizes and I am not terribly sure I want to lead any down the wrong path.

For those already in...and if you are comfortable with your account, I say Carry On!

But!

I think I will be closing this thread down prior to or at the end of July.

All honesty, I don't want others to risk their cash without possibly knowing the ramifications of the account changes and I'm not willing to go through the conversations.

For All Intents and purposes...August 1st, 2018, this thread will be closed!

That being said, we shall prevail...another thread?? Another Strategy???

Let's keep the cart and horse in proper order and see where we go...

Thanks again to all who have supported my causes and the EA's will still be upgraded and sent to all current members - Meaning...for all those concerned about the expiry date, DON'T! I will still send out updates and have looked at marrying accounts to code so that you can have a forever expiry on MT4.

Sad days are upon us...again.

Motherfuckers changing the rules when it stops suiting...FUCK THEM!

Dont worry about that, brokers are smarts, one of my broker send me an email to fill a survey with like 5 stupids questions, and WoooW its a miracle im a Professional trader client.

An example of broker way to go atm :
From 1st August 2018, new industry-wide regulations will mean significantly increased minimum margin rates for all retail clients.
Professional Clients are exempt from these increases, and will receive margin rates that are lower than current rates across a range of asset classes.

Attached is what i have achieved so far from 29 June till now.
Currently im using Hybrid :
1. Mdrfx settings with MACD 25-27
2. I dont have specific pairs , i alternate pairs when there are high impact news.
3. I dont trade GBP pairs,every news coming from GB has high impact now
4. I always keep an eye and intervene manually when i dont like the setup.
5. If 3 pairs are trading, i disable Hybrid in the other pairs. So i can keep the margin in control .

I am looking forward for version 1.4 for its tapout option,so i wanted to encourage everyone who has had a bad week with my results so far,Hybrid is the one and only EA im using live.

Thank you Magix for this EA and other members who have contributed with their knowledge to make this possible.
During this week i will donate to wish.org again,as i have promissed.

Hi Magix!!!

Can i give my 2 cents on this??!! I´ll anyway

You can close the thread or change it to another thread but i don´t think that those changes that will start August 1st should have anything to do with that.
First of all everyone here is an adult and is (should be!!) responsible for their own actions and decisions!!! No one can tell that they have not been warned that this activity has risks and rewards. You should be able to manage both!!!

Specially rookies or someone who trades very low funded accounts shouldn´t believe all the hype they listen that you put 5$ on a Monday and by Friday you have 5 million$ !!! That´s not how it works and if my experience is of any help (i´ve been trading full time for 9 years now) everytime in the beggining i decided to increase lots or overtrade my ass got whiped everytime!!! You get to increase lots when you earned it meaning when you managed to increase your balance by trading (not by depositing more money!!) which means that your system is working and also your discipline.

As Hezz said most brokers will adapt and try to find loopholes in the law so they can stay with higher margins. My broker also has contacted me so i could upgrade to professional client (just had to have at least 10 trades made the last 6 months in every month and trade over 500k in instruments (just trade 2 lots DAX and it´s done!!)) which i just did so i won´t see any changes.

So in resume people should be responsible for their actions and don´t bother Magix if they lose money (if you use his tools correctly you´ll probably gain money specially if you´re a rookie and don´t know what you´re doing which means that you´ll probably lose money in the beggining).
After August 1st (and probably before ) everyone should check with their broker to see what changes happen in their accounts and adapt their balance and trading to that. It´s not rocket science it´s just common sense!!! If you have a 100k$ account you can´t buy a Ferrari you just can buy an ordinary car. The same in trading if you have a 1000$ account you can´t trade 157 (!!) pairs maybe you trade 1 or 2!!!

So Magix you´ll do what you´ll do of course but i think you should focus on improving these wonderful EAs and don´t even worry about people complaining about the money they lost because they ill used these instruments. That will always happen no matter if there are changes or not to margin requeriments.
Just put some kind of disclaimer in post 1 (you can use some parts of this text if you want, you´re welcome) and people will have to be responsible about their money (That´s always the most important!!!!)

Hey guys,

I appreciate all of the kind and supportive words.

This has been an absolutely Fantastic Project and we have all reached out to help change the lives of others as well as hopefully being able to profit from our journey.

What we learn and what we earn!

I will still continue to work on the development and encourage all others to continue sharing their experience with the Hybrids and the thread won't go away...I just don't want to see new comers getting their asses handed to them by a changed market place.

Overtime, as has been mentioned, there will be options for All Traders that will be more conducive to a successful campaign with gridding strategies...

It will be interesting to see the impact of this change on August 1st and as we move to close out Q3...seriously, I don't think any of us can be 100% sure as to what to expect.

Higher flyers because of Lowered Volume?
Narrowed and shorter Ranges to adapt to?
No change at all?

Those of us who have been around a while have definitely noticed that with the US Restrictions, the level of market movement has reduced dramatically. That in part probably lends itself to the success of these or at least keeps them from blowing up, every other week...

Worry Not...

Developments will continue...
Updates will still be sent...
And when the time is right...I will open back up and let in some fresh new faces and perspective to continue our ride.

Thank you David for all the time, and effort you have put into this project.

I think we can all agree this was a great endeavor, and the idea of how to participation by donation was brilliant.

As for new comers getting burnt, well we are all adults here I think? and we are all supposedly responsible people? so when it comes to using EA's, no matter which kind they are, and/or the new ESMA rules, we need to manage our risk and MM. If a trader can't do those 2 basic things then they shouldn't be trading!

I look forward to the ongoing developments, and next versions, and really believe we onto something very good here.
Truth is like poetry. And most people f*cking hate poetry.

I'm with everyone here in that we're all adults and should accept the risks associated with forex trading. I have gotten my ass beaten numerous times but only recently did it sink in to my numb skull. And what was that? It's money management! I'd say some systems posted here at Forex Factory can be potential money making systems if the proper money management and the required discipline is applied. But your Hybrid EAs my friend, is out of this world. The system part is already in place and it's very good, just the proper MM required which at least a couple of experienced users here have shared their settings. Kudos to mrdfx and bishopdotun for sharing them and that I've made good progress on my live account using their setups.

sucks the new forex rules is keeping us in check from earning big.

Looking forward on the next updates, new EAs to test out so then I can donate more money to make-a-wish.


I guess people forget about the risk on trading forex. There is always risk. Trading forex, using Magix's EAs, etc. it doesn't. This is not a get rich quick scheme.
Highly recommend on using a demo account first before putting in that hard earn money.

The new rules do suck, but we can all adjust, but it is probably safe to be cautious and see how things play out after 1st August. Like has been said, the wild-west section of CFDs does need to be tackled - bucket shops etc - they give the industry a bad name.

Out of interest, would anybody be able to suggest lot sizing on a 30k account using hybrid/stochs (standard settings on Summ. start) on Majix's 7 pairs? I've been using 0.08.

My broker is reducing max leverage from 200:1 to 30:1 and I am trying to plan my risk adjustment for 1st August.

Many thanks

I am relieved......
Magix, thanks for your good decision and please continue your good work.....


We don't have to stop working because of new regulations....
Only thing we have to do is re-align the strategy and parameter set ups.......and take it as a challenge to come up with more stable and profitable solutions !

{quote} That is correct. It is only for EU regulated brokers. "These guidelines also apply to the UK until it leaves the EU. " So let's hope for a not to soft Brexit.
I Agree it will just make it so that only rich people can trade, all this EU crap again, 90% of people i speak to want Brexit because they don't want a load of people in Brussels making laws for the UK, Basically we cannot make laws for our own country, then the other EU Countries don't follow the laws anyway, so it only affects the uk, and in a really negative way.
Thanks for the heads up as my broker is in London so i will be checking with them and if necessary changing broker very shortly.
