{quote} Yup... want to explore those grid styles and see if I can find a lazier way to trade. Of course, it will serve as something complementary....

{quote} Hi FXSayWhat , thanks for sharing so many inspiring travel photography on your thread. That was actually my dream 'apon making it.' However, my life has a different calling of responsibility and stewardship in the Lord's ministries. I used to do photography too until many years back I sold 'the gear for trading'. That was one of the sadder moments in my life. Perhaps I should pick it up again. The feeling of looking through the lens to find and be aware of the beauty in this world , takes all life and trading stresses away. Just like trading...
HK is beautiful. My hometown is Shanghai. I sure will visit you there in near future. Thanks for the invite, Mark.
Hey Fx Those are really good returns...keep it up Regards Dennis

{quote} If you're feeling adventurous you could always buy your own server. They have ridiculous computing power. Of course you will have to still pay for electricity, networking, backup power supply, and possible rental fee for wherever you intend on running it... but if you are running a ton of applications then this is the only option I'm aware of (there may be more options out there, but like I said this is the best that I'm aware of) Servers can easily add hard drives, and support the usage of numerous/simultaneous top of the line processors...
Hi RParm,
Thanks for the input. I was thinking of renting space in the Hong Kong datacenters and buy my own server. I read its about 100 usd per month per 1u rackspace for some vendors. Then I don't have to worry about internet and electrical supplies.
I read in a few forums that mt4 instances per Windows will only support up to 32 ? Given that one Mt4 instance uses around 100 mb ram and most are clones or slave receivers , I assume that 32 x 100mb would be 3.2 gb plus and 8 gb for whole server should be more than generous. I am more concerned about the CPU cores though.......
Anyway I will figure out once I have reach breaking account limits in 6 mt4 copies.
Still quite a long way to go.

{quote} Sounds a bit too cosmic.. for me.. if the picture is any indication.. i have trouble working a mobile fone/smart fone i am hopeless.. are you a cyborg..???????
Hahah nahhh............. I won't say i have complex scripts... just that alerts for MAs, drag and drop position sized orders for entries, exit trade by script indicators.
90% of the time in the market is waiting for your setup..... Other time is waiting for your move to play out........... Robots are good at waiting , not humans. Unless you are doing day charts ............or those 5 min 1 min scalpers. In between ..... sometimes you need to get out of market at 4am Hong Kong time....... and you want your beauty sleep............ so in that case script would be a better option along with the trailed stops.
Robos are also better at sticking to your plan
Best also if I don't look too long at the market. Dont want to force out a trade.
