Aparsai,

I saw your EA has been integrated in FXDDAuto which is great. From your past posts I understand that there are different parameters which has to be set in order to set an run PipBoxer. Specially the money management part. Now what I don't understand is what are those settings for FXDDAuto. How are those parameters set? for example value at risk, etc

Thanks

Hi mazdak,

When it comes to FXDDAuto the MM tools are managed directly by PipBoxer. However, you need to define your risk allocation through your trading platform. You can use the suggested VARs by us or use any approach you like.

Thanks,
Al

I think Mazdak is asking whether you modified the default settings on the pairs Al.

I use the same signals that I do for my own trades. However, they execute them based on their own price so the results can be quite different from mine.

It seems that they charge 1 extra pip per round of trade.

Thank you Aparsai for your replay. In FXDDAuto is not possible to change the EA setting so I am guessing that they are using the default setting of the EA. Regarding risk management; the only parameter which you can set there, is the lot size.

Thanks for letting me know. I actually send them the signals and don't exactly know what happens afterwards. So this means that the risk management piece is not exactly defined there.

One of FXDDAuto representatives just called me to know how things go and if I had any questions. I asked her why I can’t see/modify PipBoxer’s setting. She asked what do I want to see/modify and I said this is just a general question and I just want to know how PipBoxer is set, etc. She said they get the setting from the Provider and if I want to change any setting I can just call them and they make the change! However she didn’t seem that knowlagable so I, personally, would dubble chack that befor making any decision.

 Anyway I am demoing PipBoxer with FXDDAuto and things are going well. I am at +120 pips, starting from 20e july. :-)

She is right to some extent. We send them the signals. They do not have direct access to our settings. However, we only send trade signals (i.e. when to enter a trade and whether to modify a trade or not). We have absolutely no access to other settings such as the lot size and whether to trade or not trade a specific pair. These are the decisions that you make. So the risk management is on you not us.

I hope I answered your question.
