{quote} keep the same plan. as i said, i am prepared for 10k pips reversal.
yah thats the thing i was about to ask ....maybe you heard online about the "9 weeks gold uptrend"
edit: i tried to headge the postition with the eu shorts ...but the gold fell 100$ and the EU fell 20 pips so heading that really isn't working and the knive is still hanging that the postions is running in 1k pips (should we cut the postions at 1k pips) or hold it with the drawdown

i never cut my buy, but when i do hedging by selling, i always cut my sell when price started to go up again.

if you want to hedge, better hedge by selling gold at certain level, but not at current level. i believe asia will be buying the dip.

after running ea on silver, i think for a beginner, silver maybe a better choice since it is slower and has lower range, so less margin is required. start small, the increase the lot size after account has doubled.

idk but i have it turned on on btc since yesterday with these settings starting with 500$ demo
my broker has a 18 point spread too but just now there was a trade that was like 50$ in draw down that was just closed with 23$ profit ....i think a low spread account will be alot better if you want to trade using the bot . and idk what the magic number does but i have it set to 2000 .....

AND I THINK THE STOP LOSS ISN't working can you please check

{quote} (AccountEquity()+BuyProfit1)/AccountBalance()<(1-limitmargin) that alert is to remind about free margin limit that allowing the ea to trade is reached, it will not open any more trade, unless you change the limit or top up your account. what was the limit you set? preset is 0.3 (30% of margin spared), 70% of margin will be used. I think i did advise to change that to 0.5
I used the default which is 0.3

{quote} you got 6 post opened and almost used up more than 70% of margin in about 700pips move from top, means lot size used is too big for the account size. lucky it is a demo
Hahaha ...I would freak out if it were real account
I guess my understanding was incorrect then ...the lot size should have been 0.01?

yes better to use 0.5 or 0.9, it will be easier to plan.

yes based on that, 0.01 could survive around 7000pips reversal

Even though each position is opened at different level, all have the same TP level.
Is it by design? Because I thought TP is relative to open price (every 20 pips, 30 pips, etc)

yes, most averaging system is like that. you can change the take profit so large, say 500 or 1000pips so most post will be in positive TP, this is more like swing, but you may not have the patience to wait

for a fundamental trader, always search for information regarding fundamental issues/factors. listening to technical experts may not be the better option.

magic number is for the ea to identify all it posts in an account. it will not identify post made in other account. so if you are running on 2 different machines (possibly 2 different accounts), of course the result could be different because the starting time or points could be different.
