Now that's a scalp, had to go to the 1-minute to show you, just placed the trade on 5-minute, quick look, and it was gone!

{quote} for gold, i only set it long only (gold investor only buy ) change the TP to 1000 the SL function has been disabled limitmargin 0.3 means it will stop trading when free margin of the account reached 30% and less. you may want to set it higher value, maybe 0.5 or 0.7 to be more comfortable
Never used EA before,after placing got 60pips profit in demo account,(tp 300)
Could you explain Why gold investor set only long?is it because of bullish trend?

{quote} yes i am using it. yes there are always some positions opened for sometimes. I am prepared to open up to 100 positions actually as an investor, my trading system is a bit different from normal averaging system. I am also a physical gold investor/stacker, I do not dispose any gold just because of price drop. So i treat every entry as an investment. Normal averaging system will close all positions at certain level or take profit which will close some in losses. the trick is to decide to close profitable positions manually whenever...

basically it is based on fundamental factors. Gold price has been increasing every year due to the fiat monetary system with built in interest causing fiat currencies such as dollar losing values every year, means gold price will keep on going up. current situation like high interest rates in usa, causing the dollar value do depreciate faster than before. with basel 3 regulation, requiring banks to have 5% of reserve in gold, means all banks must buy gold. Brics countries are also accumulating gold to protect their currencies. Some big banks in usa even proposing to increase reserve in gold to 20%. every time usa adding more debt, currencies value will drop and making gold price going higher. based on all these factors, i keep on buying only mode.

Since you're trading gold, what risk-to-reward ratio (R:R) are you using for these results? I focus heavily on 1:2.5 in my systems.
i don't use such ratio. i am using a filtered grid/averaging like system.

I'm still scalping with your 5-min set-up, just keeping aware of price direction from daily, 4-hour, and 1-hour opens!

Check the index sell off into the close on Trump's tariff threats, bring it on next week!

Cheers.

Impressive Results with such a small Equity. How is that possible ? How much Leverage you use here ?

What is your average Drawdown when you make for Example 50$ to 1000$ ? It must be really high Leverage.

How you calculate possible Drawdowns ? Is your Equity optimised for possible Drawdowns or how you planning your Equity for specific Trades ?

It is probably a bit ironic to present scalping results in this investor Journal, but this is where the seed of an idea was planted in a post that many may have overlooked.

This is a DEMO account which is criticized by many but if it shows result, there may be something to learn. After all, aren't all prop traders just trading demo?

From a 50K balance, it was in serious drawdown of 15K, so I reckon that converts to 30%, right? Look at it now. Hope I don't crash it this coming week.

this week stats, there are still few trades open at the top, but, as i said, i can close those losing trades if i wanted to and still have good profits. the losses were mainly from eurusd and gbusd which i decided to just let it go because it is disturbing my free margin calculations.
