{quote} I mean i didnt used the EA. I only use its concept. So IM trading it manually on grid by adjusting my TPs same as the EA is doing. But i only enter based on my strategy. Example buy when RSI 14 OS and sell when RSI 14 OB. I hope GT can update (or make another version) his EA that can initiate trade only based on my first manual entry when i spotted my own trend. For example when I click buy, the EA will follow to buy then do its original function until profit. Same as for click sell. {image}
Do you have the EA testing your grid settings as a comparison? Would need a very long forward test to gauge the benefit of RSI (or any technical measurement) over using a social trend of actual trades.
Psychologically your method would benefit due to you knowing what triggers your entry, but is there a true edge in results over long time periods? I understand the fear and discomfort in not knowing or controlling the source for community trend. I also understand why it would be held secret. It's a gold mine if it's found superior over technical trade indicators. Using Google for deriving trends might just be brilliance!!! We shall see.
We all are virtually pool of beta testers for a concept that once polished may be offered commercially elsewhere in the future. That's what I would do. Social site beta testers benefit from the free versions.
At this point that concept is still is test.
One thing I would like to understand is the sampling period and if it can be adjusted? Is it sampling social trades per minute/hour etc... An adjustment of such added to the EA may improve results when paired with grid sizes. Would be interesting to test that if you have not already Googletrader.

"What's new in this version:
[+] Reduced the number of settings.
[+] Removed multi grids.
[+] Community Trend Detection. This is not stupid detection based on fake indicators, it's based on real people trading activity from several sources.
[+] Detection of peak for placing orders from my HFT strategies. (in testing mode yet)"
The focus should be on improving the community trend detection at this point. I think that GT does not want indicators as an option discussed here. So how about discussing the community trend detector and why at this point it's losing trust.
Drawdowns are where you gain big profits also where you blow your account. This is tough on the psyche if account size is not considered as part of your settings.
Most my favorite settings are (5000 per 0.01 lot 1.5 multi), (3000 per 0.01 lot 1.2 multi), (10000 per 0.1 lot 1.0 multi)
The questioned Risky settings that I'm testing. Test if you are interested

I cut the largest losing horse in a runaway trend situation.
I'm doing other risky things to get these great gains in the last few weeks but not sharing this yet...
