Started testing a new EA with adjustable risk and margin control. It's performing decent so far on multiple pairs, not just gold. Happy to share test results.
Dude RiskPilot thank you for commenting and yes please absolutely share your results man!

Just taking a quick look at one of your US30 trades entered on 19 August 2025 @ 45213.87 and exited on 23 August 2025 @ 45313.87. It appears this trade would have been in some severe draw down before it turned profitable after 3 days. Are you not using a stop loss with the EA and if that is a yes, how do you determine when a trade is a loser and to close it?

Hi Ozzie, thanks for the comment and for taking the time to look at what I post. Yes, for my personal trading and my personal EA, I tend not to use a SL when trading U.S. indexes. I cut losses when I've hedged them enough or when there is a certain change in the trend.

Good morning to Fortyfive20 and everyone on this "Trading Initial Balances and EA" I have been reading a lot about this trading strategy for years and finally few months ago I stumble on this thread here on forex factory, which I've read completely and I really which to get involved in trading it myself on my real account, but my issue is that there is no MT5 version of the EA.

So I wish and hope that Fortyfive20 could come up with the same EA for MT5, as I really desire to get involve.

Kindly Regards ... Kris_A.

Well done, very impressive. If you trade manually which EA (page one or V2.0) do you use?

September was a pretty good month trading initial balances. For those that have asked I trade manually. My lot size is based on a dollar amount I want to get from each trade and bout a 10 pip target. I don't use stop losses when I buy and that's also because I know how much drawdown I can handle.

Good Stuff, I also trade ranges...you trading manually but you are promoting ea, why not show results with ea?

I bet you will have much more customers if you will display work of ea via charts each day for the next 10 days with the same set.
