{quote} Thank you for generously sharing your ea. I want to cancel the self-increase function, please help me. thank you

set the Multiplier = 0.9

this will place all the trades with the same lot size without increment.

i.e. if you want to keep the Max Trades = 15 (default)

{quote} right click to blessing, properties, then select inputs... Find there the following options and give them a value "1" Max Trades = 1 Or Multiplier = 1

when you set the Multiplier =1.0

the lot increment would be linear e.g.

0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05,......

be careful when using lot increment and make sure your account $$$ allocation can handle the floating DD.

I would like share my experience with Blessing 3.9.6.09 This is an EA developed by JTAToday. It is one of the stable EA around. most difficult thing with this EA is set files. I have developed few set files for EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAUUSD. All of them perform well. Good stable returns for anyone who is looking for such. Caution: Use it according to your own risk appetite. Test it well. Also maintain proper Account Balance. Do not use it on small account balances. You can use ex4 version. mq4 is uploaded, for anyone who wants to modify. Not sure why one...
Hi cdsaa,

Unfortunately, all good things come to an end.

News I received last week is that jtatoday will end its business in forex trading. I have been their customer for more than a decade and know them well.

Where do we go from here?

Their forum is still available and will be taken down by 1st Oct 2019.

Blessing3 remains free open source and will continue.... you can make some money with B3 but you need to learn it well and have full control how you want it to trade for you.

Have Fun while you can make some money.

True... unfortunately their current model of business wasnt viable for them.


But JTAtoday have given a gift to trading world. we are using Blessing here. and few modifications which have been done by Richard as well. Promising work.

Welcome to the thread Emmanuel. your 10 years experience can help community members.

This thread on Blessing will remain forever. There is no closure for this thread.

Lets hope more supporters and members benefit from this great work from JTAToday.

Rightly pointed out by you, Blessing one needs to learn how it works and then control it. It blends with trader very well. It is a nice tool in the hands of a good trader.

I keep suggesting our members here.. just try and use it on demo to understand how it works, they can also try on a cents account. Trading and using EA allows one to learn better, than just reading and trying to grasp the gist.

Blessing is not holy grail.

I too lost few times and it regains. But as we continue to use and withdraw regularly we will be ok.

Having a negative trade shouldn't discourage one from trading. Like I said in my first post, I have learnt trading from this forum. Slowly every day is a new experience and learning with trading. Blessing is just helping me a bit more.

Hi all,

Well my testing continues, I've closed all trades multiple times therefore you can see many RED marks. I've finally reduced MAX DD to 5% :-) and Next week I will test with MAX DD 2%. Overall, GOLD & GBP pairs did fantastic regardless % was 20, 10, and now 5. Next week will be fun with 5% and then MAX DD 2% only :-) Yes testing in DEMO.

MOST of red trades are because of my manual interference and testing by opening closing trades manually. Guys don't go live, yes I'm live with GBP & Gold only but you make a move on your own, otherwise i recommend you to first test in DEMO only.

I may reduce next week MAX DD to 2% instead 5%, I'm rush to test another VOLUME EA to my basket pairs after next week. So I need to conclude this testing as soon as possible.

Cheers.

I usually set MaxDD to the lowest number possible before it impacts profits. It's usually the last thing I set.

I've had a couple cases where I could go down to around 10, but that's rare. Changing that number without backtesting it is likely to negatively impact your setup. But I admittedly haven't forward tested that much. Will be glad to hear your results.

It may be possible to start with a low MaxDD number and then tune for it. Haven't had a chance to try that. Seems like it might just work.

I'm finally playing with Hedging a bit. Looks very interesting. Had a nice curve that fell off a cliff and Hedging managed to bring it back. Turned into a very bumpy curve though, and ended up with a lot more trades.

I'm fan of volume/price action. Blessing open trade in profit and either trailing-sl follows it or trade goes back in DD and keep floating and hit to max DD.
I've been playing with max dd to 90, 10, 5, and now 2%. Mostly trade meant to open for TP but some goes in dd so should close early and wait for next trade to recover the loss. But if some pair never recover the loss, mean you should remove that pair from the basket. Blessing trades in pattern, if you are caught in WRONG pattern so Blessing can't help you much except keep you in losing pattern. so it's important to get out of bad pattern by closing it early and let Blessing find a profitable pattern for you.

Let's see how 2% testing goes next week. At the end of next week I'll postpone further testing until end of the month. As I need to test another Volume EA for basket trading. Blessing isn't for basket trading but I'm simply testing it, so far XAUUSD, GBPUSD, GBPAUD, GBPCAD, GBPNZD are doing great Beside demo, i'm live with them.

There is no Martingale misfeature to remove. None.

Blessing can increase lot size per level, completely under your control. It doesn't do the other absurd Martingale BS.

Doubling down after every loss ... Blessing thankfully doesn't know how to do that.

You're right!

I checked through my running Demo tests and found a few multi-month winners with MaxDD of 10% or less. Several go down to 7%.
Below 10% seems to bring losses down to about the same size as winners, which makes them much easier to deal with.

Losses should be much easier and quicker to recover from.

Time to build more set files and test this further.

Okay, here's a 9% MaxDDPercent setup. Higher timeframe as some requested.
Suggest you don't modify MaxDD. Other settings don't do nearly as well.

This has not been forward-tested, so don't trade it live.

Better to fine-tune for your broker first, as always.

Good luck!

H1 always work better than M15 or M5, Yes there will be losing trades but most of trades will hit TP. I will test H1 next month.

{quote} Tickdata depends on liquidity providers and Live feed providers to your broker Oanda or any other broker. I've stoped using oanda long ago for many other reasons. However, in my understanding you are unable to see CHART history data older than 3 months ... 1- Load attached scripts to your script folder (google/youtube how to insert script to your MT4) 2- right click and select All symbol to allow every symbol/pair to appear in your pairs window. 3- Run ForceLoadHistoricalData.ex4 and check if you get any error in your expert window. 4- Open...
Thanks Fareed, tried the scripts but still no joy with Oanda. If I use those scripts is it pulling Oanda data down or MT4 data? I also use Pepperstone which seem to have better spreads, which broker do you find the best for blessing?
