2 hours, 7 open trades, 0 profit With old version i had about 20 opened trades in the same time and nice profit
SO, we can blame EA for price action of all Forex?

YO, GoogleTrader, ruler of the world
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

Only CHF? Trading OK on other pairs?

I don't have answer but GT might need that information

I think u guys should exit all EURUSD order of the old EA right now or you will burn your account
I'm not sure that is good idea. It is clear that it is difficult to look at the drawdown, but this is standard situation for this EA as i said earlier.

An idea....

long with the community trend, how about trading against the trend line on daily, 4hr or so? Manually Set the EA for shorts only until a visual trend line break. This may help stay on the right side more. So even if the community trend shows up, no trade will be taken until the longer term trend line is broken and you change the setting to take only longs at that point.

So now you have 2 confirmations of trend direction.


Thoughts?

So got this bad boy running. Trying to understand the order logic. Indicator showing an uptrend but EA only taking sells?
GT. How and when does the EA switch over?

Thanks

EA will switch after closing all sell orders. But i noticed, usdjpy very bad pair for EA. On usdjpy is reasonable to increase LotsFactor_trengchange to 1.5. But better do not use on this pair at this time.

I see. So if you get a runaway trend in one direction it will just keep placing opposite orders until you margin?

YUP!

The community trend will help against this. But all grid systems have this possibility. If not they would be holy grail. So risk management and periodic profit pulling is a must.

Just seems counter intuitive. You start with sells. Then trend changes and price heads up so you keep adding sells. Now to get out you want price to fall again to close grid so that you can enter buys. But if it falls far enough to get you out of grid, seems like trend would have to shift back to south, but you're looking for buys...

Would seem beneficial for EA to just switch to buys when the trend changes and keep the sells open. Then if price keeps going the additional buys could offset the hedged sells. But then you could keep bouncing back and forth like that, accumulating positions until price broke out, so that could cause problems as well...

Just musing...

The system does not work the way you describe. Your trade direction is based on the community trend direction. Say the trend shows down. The EA will only open shorts. Just because you go against the trend does not mean the community trend direction has changed. Strength still down. So as the grid closes, your next trade will still be a short because the community trend is still down. Also the target price rises base on settings as you add positions.
