Hi Costa

I have been discussing pyramiding trades with Magix and we both agree that it is something to look at.

I will look at it after the Christmas period as i am winding down for the season now.........

GVC,
Thanks for sharing. What's the max dd you had till date? the 57% gain was from combination of two bots in a month? Sorry for too many questions..
I am testing different variations for each EA's to find the best R:R..

Actually 3 bots.....TDI added recently to same pair as Allin5.

The DD is as follows but bear in mind that i am making changes as i go along.

FTL = 16.1 %
TDI = 3.62 %
Allin5 osma variant = 83.4 %

Opening first position with a S/L 35 pips and T/P in no importance tell pips 250 to see more! Trailing Stop on the 1st position in pips 5 only = relatively limited risk.
5 PIP trails on any time frame would almost ensure that the vast majority of your trades are closed at 5 or less pips, given spread and speed of execution.

When this happens, what you will be left with, are numerous trades that are uncovered.

This kind of pyramid would be one of loss leading to an eventually busted account.

Though I know there are things that we can work on to improve the overall results, I simply do not believe a 5 pip trail will be of any benefit.

There is possibly 2 reasons that this trade closed at a net loss.

The first is that the tp was set to a place where both were exited as instructed to the TP, but this was insufficent to close the trades at a net gain.

or

As has been mentioned, but not personally confirmed by myself, that the trail will follow the tp trade and close all at a net loss.

As I do not use this feature of the SWB variants, nor do I know the settings you are using, I can only speculate.

All the best of this Festive Season to you as well Centrinos.

What we don't fix before this year end, will give us a goal for the next.

Fantastic result, BlueJack!

It looks like it pays very well to use the lot multiplier.

Could you please share your settings and Time Frame(s) for the pairs traded? And do you close the positions over the weekend?

Many thanks!

Interesting setting... TS=22.

I'm tempted to try the multiplier with Autoprofit=0 and no TS to test the true power of TOE.

Just wondering how you got that 0.06 position on EJ. With the multiplier=2 it should be 0.08 if I understand it correctly.

Anyway, thanks again
