{quote} Exactly! Now you know what I was talking about. Ya, it doesn't mean we can't use stop mode. Just that we need to find the right formula for STOP. Because last time I used it, I was just following from the initial idea of this STOP order grid: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=515891. FYI, that is the initial idea of STOP orders, which was ran 24H a day. It was good, but then you face a big drawdown if the market is ranging. The big the range is, the more you'll get stuck, and finally will wipe out your account. now...

I believe the right trigger for Stop mode is Fibo.

In conculsion, i have two styles:

1 Grid Scrapper follows the trend:

Trend trading triggered by fibo lvl with small tp and Two ways Exit.
Each lvl we trade 2 times,cause things will not repeat 3 times.
Don't try to take a long shot, small profit is safer and quicker.
One day one trade

2 News Trading with optional TP (depending on the impact)
Small news(ingore)
Meduim news(TP <1 lvl pivot)
Big news or many Meduim news(1-2 lvl pivot)
Devastating News or many big news ( 2-3 pivot lvl)

Attached Image

yesterday ex. 1-2 lvl pivot

I do feel this is the turning point in my trading career, there are two people I have to remember.

dude, see previous post before asking.
I got my VPS ran out of space, so the OS force close some of the applications, apparently it closed all of my live MT4.

{quote} REBOOT and LIMITEURUSD2, you can see on my trade explorer.
hey rad!

quite weirdly enough, GTLIMITEURUSD2 is in drawdown on my side and REBOOT has completed its cycles on my end. its vice versa on your trade explorers. interesting. it is difficult to have consistent results inspite of the brokers being the same it would seem nah?

try to compare both settings?
Try export your GTLIMITEURUSD2 and compare with my GTLIMITEURUSD2?

I mean, logically it should stopped already. Because this morning around 9AM SGT, I've checked on REBOOT there are few pending orders, but not executed yet. That means a cycle was closed a few minutes/hours earlier. It started new one because the time to stop on REBOOT is 10AM.
And moreover, on my TE it says pending orders duration 8 hours. That means it put the orders around 9AM SGT (for a new cycle).

Yours, maybe the settings is flipped.

You can compare the set file actually if you want to look what is the exact differences.

The most major diff is the time. REBOOT started at 01am ended at 10am, LIMIT2 started at 01am ended at 6am.

Hi Radityo!
I understand for time difference. Is the midpoint difference is 5 and close order after x(start points) is 1 or 2 ?. Is the REBOOT file which you are using is same as GT1000REBOOT.set ?

REBOOT still uses v1.4.
Therefore, midpoint was still hardcoded to 5. Close order After X wasn't implemented back then, so the value for v1.7+ (if you want to use it) should be set to 0.

Let us "play" a little bit. I love to play with Cents account....
I've used GTS_EU1 on Live account using the latest GTS_EU1 set file both for _EUROPE and _US. The only parameter I've changed is as following.

- Target: 2.5 (Fixed)
- Lot size: 0.01 (Fixed)
- balance started at $2.5 (equal to 250 cents). It supposedly to be with $5 (500) but let's see in future.

Hi All,
I believe I've made a mistake.
I forgot to put the Middle Point initial logic. In v1.7, the Middle Point logic was having a bug, but it was a positive bug which results in profit. Somewhere in this thread I've told that I want to keep this logic, convert this as feature, although it is a bug.

I've released the SAME version v1.8 in http://rdzgridtraps.codeplex.com, added with this old v1.7 Middle Point logic, and rename it as Min Profit Orders.
Please update your set file. And if you already using v1.7 - GTLIMITEURUSD2 in Live account and would like to upgrade, make sure you test with Demo account first for next few days.
Below are the set files for both GTL_EU and GTS_EU.

GTL_EU2.set ► GTLIMITEURUSD2 applied to v1.8. Some changes: Order Count to 10, Auto-Expand Order Count to 5, Open Type to Dynamic Recreation (Auto-Expand) by Threshold. Auto-Expand Threshold to 100. This to make EA more responsive, by creating only 10 orders initially, and it will expand automatically when reaches 8th order.
GTL_EU2_XM.set ► Same as GTL_EU2, applied to XM, since XM is running with Equity.
GTS_EU1... _LIVEFIX.set ► GTS for my Live account (created today). It comes with fix lot 0.01, and fix target $2.5.
GTS_EU1... _DEMO.set ► GTS for Demo account.

Hey, thanks for sharing your hard work. The target is that pips? Or percent? As I might like to change the settings too.

This session had been creepy...

Only 1 cycle started yesterday at 17:00 GMT and closed today almost at the end of London Session.

I'm still using GTLIMITEURUSD2 (from version 1.7) and I have only modified the "target profit multiplier".
Standard was 0.015, I cut it to 0.01.

Majority of cycles are closed by the logic "right in start point" (that I truly love it), but sometimes price try to trends and so I prefer get out earlier even if less profit. Using a "target profit multiplier" of 0.01 I need less retracement than using 0.015.

I'm going to change the trading window from 17:00 -> 22:00 GMT to 18:00 -> 22:00 GMT. If like yesterday price starts trends after London Close I will jump on it later...safer

Stop orders worked well today during London session, and I will put them again at US red news in 1 hour...

Demo GTLIMITEURUSD2 with tight grid reacted better because it closed the first cycle on the retracement at more or less 18.45 GMT and then a second at 06.55 GMT. Instead of doing only one big cycle it divided it in two.
Less DD, less stress...

I will post later the set files of this 2 version modified (that I think are a little bit safer) so you can check them...

Really thanks to Rad to all the effort you are putting!
I'm getting lost in all your trading explorer ahah!

EDIT: Stops orders worked well during US CPI release. Managed to grab 8 pips in the first seconds 10 pips spike. Better than nothing...
See you later for the Limit session...

The target is in your account's currency (usually in $) and it calculates the whole trade's profit, not a single one.
I would suggest you to look at my few posts back, or read the documentation. http://rdzgridtraps.codeplex.com
