Would I would do is use this high risk model to enter contest and such. Hey maybe in a good run you could win some money.

LOL. I did the same thing BillYon. Had my 10,000 demo up to 40K in 3 days then it blew over night...

Arbinka, How did you fair today with your 1.0 multipliers?
After having 775% gain in equity yesterday, I'm back with only 560% gain and DD of 25%...
Let see if the market will recover after the news.

I think a limit to the open trades, per pair, should be implemented, GT. Could be useful when the trend changes and the EA keeps buying instead of selling, or vice-versa.
I have now 6 bad trades on EurUsd. Almost raised my account. If it was a - for example - 3 open trades per pair limit, I could accept that loss easily, maybe close the trades manually if detected in time.
What do you think? Can it be implemented?
And a stop loss could be useful, too.

I just thought I would let the thread in on a few things. I personally think that the maxdd idea works but that the lot sizes needed to be changed so some got hit twice. The ones with a lower lot size seemed to work out ok. The only one that really seems to be dead is the 0.01 lots per 500 with 20% dd. I am still going to see how it comes out.

With that being said, I did have one that came out alright. I was using 0.01 lots per 2,500 with a max dd of 20%. The 20% got hit but it's still up 20%. It's been running for 9 days. It's a live cent account.

this is already possible with the multi lot function

if i'm understanding correct.

Don't know how beneficial it will be since you will not have the dynamic target price.

I am from the beginning of this thread. I see some demo accounts, but as a live traders I only saw armyda and myself. As far as I understand armyda has gone, and I am still alive, but again today was like a nightmare. This EA is very risky. However, the risk could be reduced by using some filters. I am looking such filter and would like to discuss with someone about that. At the moment I need 60p in order to reach my target. If you take a look at USDCHF you will see that both are long, one of them should be short. I hope It will be EURUSD... If not it will blew my account.

Regards,
Karl

Yes I agree, there need to be a few more filters and a hedging strategy built in instead of trying to bounce back and forth between 1.1 and 1.0. Maybe GT is working on something like that right now since I noticed on page 1 version 1.1 is not available for download anymore and under the Download Now link the words "coming soon" appear. So hopefully some mods coming soon. If that's the case, looking forward to it GT.

I guess I missed the storm, didn't turn on my pc today and my EA has a manual start and end.

Which hour all these started to happen? (GMT)

I only trade this EA at London and NY times, but mostly 1h/2h before NY closes, and its been good so far.

If it can do it, then I failed to understand the settings lol and I should probably deactivate it ASAP.
Anyway, what settings should I use to limit the trades to a maximum number of 4 per pair?
Thanks.

Hi ART5,

would you please share your setting and the performance?

i like the idea of enabling the EA only during Landon and New york but it will be nice if we know your results so fare.

Thanks a lot.
Just to make sure I understood this time: Multilotsfactor 0.75, right?!
Also, how about 2 open trades per pair?
Thanks again.
