Restarted and the grids back on. A bunch of volatility just now for some reason, opened the grid right into it and got a couple of error 130's
...sorry
that would be FOMC
it will be moving around for a bit, then settle on a big move, probably down, over the next few days.

I would consider changing the settings on windows autoupdate. it can be very annoying. If you go with a VPS, you have to change them anyways.

I just opened a new demo on FinFx. I love this EA, it looks very promising,
I just wonder how the results would translate to a live account.

Count me in the fun club too.

It went through today's roller coaster rather gracefully, lol. Just waiting for a convenient moment now to turn it off and add more levels.

Yellen's press conference had tons of contradicting answers, thus the up, then down, then up again, then down again. It should start trending down after market reopens in a little more than an hour. I would like to see $1180.

I would like to see it down around 1175 for sure. Anywhere but up! All but 2 of my sell stops are hit.

{quote} Which makes it worth testing for an extended period of time, to see if it needs a haircut, and if it makes so much profit that a haircut here and there is worth it. You can always add more steps, too. So, what do you think about the auto-compounding? You've been able to experience doubling the lot size, safely. You can see your profit "curve" has a curve to it. {quote} It's ok, I'll keep tabs on your explorer. If your account has the same lot size display anomaly as dgodfrey's, it will make it interesting to see if it actually turns out...
Hahahaha.....
Finally I found someone in common... I should add you in my buddy list....
Gold is different indeed, the characteristic is quite unique... The only thing I can't beat is that gold requires a higher capital. My strategy requires $100 at least, yours is $1000.

Anyway, I got so many losses which is not closed. Is this due to changing the timeframe in the middle of running EA?
If so, I guess I need to stick and keep the chart as it is, no need to change this and that.

Why? If you ran default and it has taken all 30 trades either side you should have a perfect hedge with about 30% DD

Because there is no pending orders all orders are in trade I use default settings.

If you run default settings, including 0.01 per 1000 then the worst that can happen is around 30% DD - no way can it blow the account unless somewthing got changed or your broker is messing about

from the looks of it , can blow even if you reverse copy too.., need ultra speed execution tiny spread on gold like LMAX/FXPIG for this bot to succeed i presume

@Pipster

Soooo, now that I am boxed, with all the stops taken except 2 sells, what's next? To hit breakeven gold would have to get to something over 1400. Is the plan to wait on that, or to pull the plug on the box, manually stop out and restart?
