Hi Guys, where do you run your EA ? On your PCs, or VPS servers (parameters?), what's broker. Can you share your experience ? Thanks.
Ignored
Hi, I run it on VPS but I will not allow promotion of any broker here...This having said you need a good broker, tight spreads and good swaps to be successful on the long run...Zero margin for hedging is a plus but not a must...

Cheers

So, there where turns, where my repo crashed to 0.
I have played with tigers rules, grid size and TP and no sucess ... let's say 100 transactions are fine, the one crash my account.
Is there any way do avoid this, or just reduce total risk ?

Thanks.

Hello again, here you go:

iHistory: I use it for the closed volume
IProfittracker: I use it as overview for performance
EquityMinitor: I use it for visualization of Equity/Balance/FreeMargin

Also I use IExposure in the chart of the grid for open position (should be preinstalled in your MT4)

Cheers

It just means that the cycle before the end of your test is not yet complete. You can cut off that part of the test, or extend your period of testing until the cycle finishes.

You have good overall projection.

EURUSD seems to close th long cycle I opend yesterday, the short one I opend today, so I am 5 pips away of switching to the swap friendly side of griding

By the way, Icarus is including swaps and commissions into it´s calculations, so the profit target is reflecting them...

Hi,
Happy new year !
I have converted Ikarus EA v4.31 modified from mt4 to mt5.
Nothing has been changed about logic, changes have been made only to adapt mql4 to mql5 platform.
For orders and positions which are differenr in mt5, I have used the great library of Fsaber : MT4Orders.mqh
I meet some issues with stdlib.ex5 , so , I joined in archive zip the file <errordescription.mqh> to copy in mql5 include folder.
I have just tried on a 15 mn chart because I have not to much time: it seems to work, but it needs certainly to be improved.
Let me know about your mql5 tests.
Mike

Will stop giving you "boring" updates here, but on Friday I will make m first weekly review on youtube instead

By the way, the indicator in the chart is not some holy grale dark magic, it´s just D1 pivots for having some orientation, sometimes I might use also a auto fibonacci tool instead...

Cheers

Edit: Both orders have been reopened by the EA so I just made extra €€€ when cycle will be closed...
