Me Alpari UK live account.

First proper (main money account) live trade as well - doesn't that just suck
Ouch! Sorry yours was live account.

Could the loss have been avoided? Perhaps we should not trade Sunday candles?

There has been some discussion about setting a timer on the trades and closing them out after a set period of time. Should this idea be revisited for the original bot?

Should we be looking at increasing the hedging?

Should we be considering a different exit strategy?

Or, should we just take the stop loss in stride and hope the Bot's win rate will prevail?

Dog's Bollocks GBPUSD 1 order send failed with error(129): invalid price Market=1.5782: Entry=1.5782: Sl=1.6282 Lots=0.2

Hi Steve,
This error message was just generated by the KG Extremes bot and I thought I had better post it since i sure can not explain it. It also showed up in my Experts folder.

P.S. I'm not running the Dog and I'm running your last update of KGE on a 4 digit crook.

It is probably nothing. A piece of code Steve may have copied from Dog´s Bollock´s. I think he probably left it with the purpose of having an excuse to shoot people asking about it... If the bot is working ok, just keep it running as is.

Hi dinofx,

I remember Scoobs said RSI value should not be more than
7. Which values do you use for low, mid and high volatile pairs?

They had been pushing the YEN high and have now sold them with massive profits.

It happens (without warning) and there is not allot you can do about it.

Scoobs.

PS. Its not just the JPY, they also do it with EUR and USD currencies.

Everyone

If you were unlucky enough to lose money today on the YEN then dont panic.

The BOJ traders will have their revenge soon enough.

And it will be carnage.



PS. In about 4.5 hours.

i'm not a coder, just try to understand what master proof chief makes

on this thread you can pick a bot with embedded pair list, so you can select the volatils only and remove the others then save that bot with a custom nam, and so on with the others pairs. when done, you have to find the best settings for each one. that's how i cook but there are others ways for sure, choose the one you prefer (tropical choice indeed )

one of the main task that every trader might never forgot is to read the "economics news and stats" published on the main rss stream.

Today, very important stats have been published about USD and bonds flow with china, uk and japan. If you look at 'big picture' chart, you easily know where prices are going.

my recent example might not be taken as 'Bible talk' as i'm more tweaking than trading. The fact is that rsi is not my favorite indi (too noisy for myself) so i can't give you settings that don't follow Scoob rules and bring pollution here.

Then, why mess around with these EAs? On days like today, if "you easily know where prices are going", why not simply trade based upon these big picture charts?

remember that's the way on trading floor too. If Scoob have given the multi timeframes rules included into the bots here, it's coz of experience i guess. So, nothing new if you understand, just an other read to say the same thing.

Using MTF's wouldnt have matterd in this case.

There are certain things you cant build into an EA, this just highlights that fact.

Things often occur outside of the basic FFCAL scheduled economic news.

Sudden bond movement (not this time) is a problem for any trading floor.

Hedge funds played a big part in what happend today. Again, not something you can code into an EA.

Like all traders, sometimes you have to accept loses. If you cant bring yourself to understand that then FOREX is not the place to be delving into.

Scoobs.

PS. And yes commercially I lost around 84K today. It happens to everyone.
