On my IBFX demo (Level 3 with .01 lots) with Open trades from Friday has pulled down $35.32 in profit (with penny lots). Runs 24/7 with no intervention.
It is running Level 3 OOTB.

This thing just keeps on cranking... I am amazed.

This is with 22 pairs and when I do go live, I will drop a few of the really bad performers, but since 2/1 when I started this demo... all are net positive. Have not even thought about Recovery EA... I may act different when I go live.
Headed to Berlin for a week and will go live on my return

12% in a day? Dayammm, whitegoodman. Let's see. That's 60% a week times 52 weeks equals.....
yeh ive worked a live account from $50 to $112 as of today using penny lots... so made $12 Monday. Its taken about 3 weeks.

Ive kept them all at penny lots except for audnzd and eurznd which now start at 0.02. Will change the rest to 0.02 at roughly $250-$300.

This is just live testing atm however, and will go big with say $2000 account around May. Im still only aiming for around 5-8% a week, just that the news or should i say false news on friday got everyone some nice profits Friday/Yesterday.

Id reccomend the natural progression is to do demo than live testing with say $100-$200 then if thats all goes well maby bump it to $2000 after another few months.... or consequently jsut work your initial $100 to a good account size...

That's great, white...to have more than doubled an account in such a short time. Most likely, the larger the account size, the more conservative someone would be.
I didn't even have any trades open from Friday to profit from & still made out OK. Like you, anything from 5-10% a week would be great, and anything more than that would be unbelievable.
Only thing that can hurt this system is some real heavy trending, or some calamitous news, which we've had our share of lately.

What is your current equity and starting balance. I might try running it like this.

yeh I added 12% to my live account for monday, with a few carry overs on the weekend. Just trading penny lots atm, but still its a promising result for the day, settings are quite mdoerate for most currencies, slightly more aggressive or audnzd, audcad and eurnzd
Hey White,
Don't you think carry overs are risky? I'm out of the market by thur. pm. most weeks.

Did anyone trade EUR/JPY and GBP/JPY yesterday?

I came home to see GBP/JPY at level 3 and rising, so I put on level 4 and then the level 5 rescue EA.

Trading at $0.10/lot (my broker only allows microlots) on a $3000 account, the drawdown at one point for GBP/JPY was just over $1000!

Thankfully it retraced from just over 500 pips down and the level 5 rescue EA actually made a profit of $400. So my demo account which started on Friday is now up from $3000 to $3870 in 2 days.

Yes, I know what they say about just bearing with drawdowns to new equity highs, but 30% drawdown on 1 pair is not for me.
Level 3 is probably as high as I am willing to go.

I'm think I will drop GBP/JPY and possibly EUR/JPY from the list of 13 pairs that Bob last posted for less volatile pairs.

This is a very impressive system, once you get used to the whole concept! Combine this with a breakout system, and you should have your bases covered.

The GBP/JPY can go up and down crazy amounts in short order. I like the EUR/JPY but only at 120 away from center on a 15 minute chart. If you used a one hour chart at 90 away, you can see you'd have been at level three comapred to me being at level one or two at most.

just add a 0 to Pips, SL, and TP and add a 0 to the red numbers which are found at the bottom of the code so they become 900. that should work..

//---- lot setting and modifications
//Sell order

if( Bid > Var3+(90*Point))
{
myOrderType=1;//SELL
}
//buy order
if( Bid < Var3-(90 * Point))

When you say you change the distance from 90 to 120 pips away, how do you do it on the charts?

I see only 79, 80 and 81 moving average indicators.

Thanks.

These are my 3 weeks results from Level 3 IBFX Demo. Started with $3,000 and current balance is $3,366. I have tried to pull all the individual trades together in a file.... IBFX has been archiving my history... twice now since 2/1/2009... makes it very difficult to analyze the data.

This is a Level 3 on 22 pairs without using the Recovery EA.

A few of the pairs I would remove in a live account. This is OOTB with .01 lots.

Drawdown had been minimal... now running Account Analyzer on this account... wish I had started with this.

Other then closing a few trades manually the first week, the EA has been doing it all 24/7.

I am happy with the results so far.

You're using a 5 digit broker. You have to increase your lines by a factor of 10.

ok this is for you and coach....

if you want to change the indicator lines on the CHART (not the code)....

right click then click on indicator lsit, click on every one and change the numbers in the second tab to the ones you want....

for the 5 digit broker you have to add a '0' to the indicator numbers

You can change the indicator distance by clicking on the indicator and changing the distance away from 90 to whatever you want. Be sure to change the other lines accordingly. If you want to trade at further distances away than 90, you need to go in and change the EA also.

Ok, I have added 0 to each one and the lines look correct now as far as spacing. I need to do research on a good line for audcad, 3 level setup.... in the code itself, I change the red numbers listed above. Is there any other number I need to worry about adding a 0 to before I turn the EA on?

Yes, I removed gbpjpy from my mix early last week as well. Plenty enough profit to be made without having to put up with that damn pair
Eurjpy hasn't bothered me much though.
