Just loaded V2.5 on my live account for the first time. It asked me to change magic # from 12345. So I changed it. I now have a 'The robot has been suspended. Reason: You need to change the MagicNumber input'.
I changed it a few times...not sure what to do...
Never had this issue on demo accnt.

regards,
It detects whether you are using on demo or live. If on live, change the default from 12345 to a different number and you should be ok.

Is that a live account ?
No, It's my "serious strategies" demo/test account.

Will load Scooby, possible next or following week , onto its own micro lots account as my next stage after stable period running V2.5.

Great Strategy, Great Robot. Great Forum.

Ta, Fredella.
Changing the magic # while the EA was loaded didnt work...
Had to actually re-load the EA with a new #.
All good now, thanks.

I'm trying to download the EA from the first page and load it in. I'm not sure how to get the EA running up on my MT4. For some reason I'm encountering problems. Can anyone help?

Important Information

We are now using a divisor of 25000 units to get the base lot size. This means this system can only be run on a standard account with greater or equal to 2500 of base currency. Anything less than this and the lot size calculations for the pairs in the basket will be wrong and you will suffer margin calls, blown accounts etc. You cannot run this on a micro account using nano lots, it simply wont work properly.

If you cannot afford todo this with your live account then basically you shouldnt be using this system. No if's, but's or arguments.

Cheers

Scoob.

I set my DD% closure to 2, suggested by Skylar Locke, so I took a little hit there, but tolerable. Now to see what the ratio of winners/losers might be on the 24 H version.

ps: Just recovered one percent.

2 is too low for this system.

You should set it to 5.

Scooby I have a question, based on your experience. If the BoJ wants to intervene, do you think they would be buying/selling mainly one currency for example USD, or would the buy/sell many currencies across the board? Just curious about that.

Thanks

They will buy or sell any of their XXXJPY currency pairs which fits into their overall plan to keep interest rates low to conteract oil prices of which Japan is a major importer.

Hi, instead of the EA's and indicators you see on the first page, go to the attachment button (paperclip picture) on the top right of each page, and download from there.
