....And second the AUDUSD have high up and down moving in one straight direction. Because him a lose and crash many times my accounts. This pair i will never use again. For use this pair, you Need many Money for Buffer. So my advice: delete this pairs from your MT4.
thanks for the advice audusd

Yup right, trailing will affect DD
My question is, why is my DD account appearance from MT4 only 0.73%, even though floating minus around 9% (or maybe because it hasn't closed, then it hasn't been counted as DD)

Yeah, absolute dd is not counted until trades are closed out, if you want a true number use myfxbooks, it will give you a true measure of dd.

Ok thanks, in Myfxbook : Drawdown: 9.92%

{quote} 40 pips btw the 0.65 lot transaction and the bottom, grid distance 15pips, i would have expected another two positions. {image} {image}
Lot size 0.65, what Grid transaction?
Maybe it's the third transaction and entered the Grid_Pause?
If with Grid_Pause = 2 and Grid_Release = 6, the next transaction needs to be around 15X3 = 45 pips (waiting for Grid_Release)
Or another possibility, the balance is not enough for the OP Buy with a large lotsize

{quote} number 11
Number 11, means the next 12th transaction needs 180 minutes (from first order)
1. If Gird_pause_Option = 2 ==> enters the second pause area, normal.
2. If Grid_pause_Option = 1 and Free margin is enough, this needs to be investigated, give setfile and with what capital

V1_10 Real account first week, Pair EU, GU, UChf, EJ About DD, Hello which setting do you use for this live account?
Basically using HR 33b Setfile, but with a small MM (Budget_Allocation = 40-60%) and Grid adjusting ADR
With the formation as follows
1. With 5 Charts for 5 Pairs (the only full active is EU, others On-Off see the situation)
2. With 5 Charts for 5 Pair using the Manual setfile (Manual_Trading_Active = true)
* UsdChf, only test performance.
* MM 0.2 - 0.5% is for one pair, if more than one pair together, it needs adjustment.

Anpar, please I want to practice the manual use of this EA like you do. I have set up some indicators so hint me on the possible trend direction. I don't however know how to set the EA to manage my manual trades and close them up at a given/ set profit say $50. Can I get your set file for the manual usage please ? This will help me a long way as I hope to also target $50 per trade on a $2000 account. I hope to practice with it through out this month and paste my result here.

Thank You

Just Information
Special attention to USDCHF and other cross pairs

I am evaluating the USDCHF pair, especially the case on Monday morning which usually spreads widening and fast movements have an impact on slipage.
The following picture shows the negative impact of USDCHF on a real account
In this setting, in one closing cycle, it will add Balance, but in this case it will reduce Balance by -1200
Why ?
Because the condition of the profit target is reached (25%) Close Triger, then the price moves quickly and widening spreads up to 150 (15 pips)
This is an example of why BT and FT are different, especially for Pair with wide spreads.
Be careful when using Become Pair, which is aggressive spread.
