Guys, I you have a good ECN broker with Low spreads and want to run EA with a Scalper system, use Signal_Level 5 or more with SL around 6-9 pips, Margin_Percent 3-10%, try with the following file Rgds {file}

could it work with ICMarkets? in tests it is exceptional.. :-)

Anpar, have been running one small ($400) live which has increased by about $20/last 9 trading days on default.
On my ThinkFX demo $5000, made $650 yesterday running EU(175)/EJ($455) and AC($45)running HR33b2.
ICM demo $3000 running realaggressive on AC ($165)and EU ($85) made $250 yesterday. Your settings doing well, thanks for those!
Interesting comparison EU and AC.
Any other pairs performing well for you guys?

Hi Mohsenfx
In your example, the meaning is:
R-1-354125903
R = Constant sign of Martingale transaction
1 = Grid n
354125903 = Order number first order
Mrg-100 = First order with magic number = 100

Thanks Johannes, just surprised no one else are posting results demo or live. AC, is such a great performer, way more profitable than EU, trades just open and close constantly.

You are bold running EJ, it's very enticing, but, I just don't like the possibility in being stuck in a trade for longer than one day, if I were to run it, my last trade would be on a Thursday to ensure I wouldn't get stuck in a Friday trade going into the weekend. Gaps are bad.

Mainly EU and AC, I might load GU, if news is very slow, but as you seen today and yesterday, you never know what is coming out of the UK.

Goal, is a slow grind to the point of making 200 to 500 per day with low risk, I expect this to take 6 to 12 months running mainly just EU. EU daily ranges have been very low, I expect it to pick up over the next couple of months, these 40 pip daily ranges are a pita.

Great and thanks for all your contributions.

Hi
Anapar I have been through the thread and cannot find the settings you use for auto, I have come across the manual version but could you please share with me what you are using now.
My own trading is little up and down at the moment so nothing to share at the moment but trying it on 1m and 5m also hard dd stop of 10% to see how it goes. In the past I have found it ony takes one position to go against you to wipe your account so that why I am trying a hard stop on dd.

Cheers

Here you go.

Unless, you have a large grid, a hard dd stop of 10%, will slowly bleed your account.

Hi
But if you haven`t got a hard dd stop then how do you decide to cut your losses and not having one trade adding more and more positions that ultimatly blow your account?

Sit in front of my computer during the trading day and manually cut losses if I see a slow grind of trend going against my trades. 10% DD with a Marti, happens all the time, my cutoff would be around 50 to 60 percent, you have to be comfortable in losing 50% of your account when trading these types of EAs, no way around it.

Determine your max positions and then manage your trades to get out at the best opportunity, I'm never married to a trade and will manually close a position if necessary.

Anpar, AUDCAD was a bit wild yesterday and cause a big DD on my $500 Live account and had to add $200 in funds, but the Day finished in $187 profit $150AC/$37 EU using your set file.

I hope you are just trading AC on that account, more than one pair can and will use margin preventing the EA from opening a new grid, when it needa to.

I'm glad you made it out, the quick spikes normally work alright, you need to be careful of the slow grinding trends against your position, 9 times out of 10, if not managed, you will find that the trend will continue, then an explosion in the direction of the trend. This is the main reason I will only hold trades for 24 hours or less and cut my losses.
