I think unifying the SL/TS when multiple trades are running would be a good option to minimise the risk.

{quote} Hi thodie, I linked you TE of Yen Trader to the thread this morning. However 30% a day is much more than I can handle :o.
Encountered no errors so far. Lot size is high, but imho thats what demo forward is for. Testing the borders.
Here is the setfile:

I think that is a excellent idea , with 7 trading pairs usually there is a 30 + orders open. Controlling all of them together if the same magic number is involved is good solution
Help to be helped.

{quote} Balance is better for Pyramiding, Equity is better for Averaging option. Variable lot size is suitable for testing. In real life I prefer fixed lot size, which can be manually increased when balance (with no open orders) reach certain level(s).
Me too. I did some tests here increasing manually and it's fine!

true, excellent result but we should not forget it was during GBP news event - which was an advantage for the trailing stop close, exit was near the high.

Of course. Did you stop the EA as I don't see any new open trades ?

Dumb luck or not, two winners on the core system and the account is up 6.2% for the week on this 4H test of v4. After Khalil releases the next version, I will begin testing out of sample windows and different pairs. I see many here want to test on lower TF, but I favor higher TF, less orders, larger order size, and more pairs, if possible. The streaks up (and down) on lower TF will be more dramatic, but maybe I will look at that closer after settling on higher TF.

GBPUSD + USDJPY = GBPJPY right.
Also ...
GBPAUD + AUDJPY = GBPJPY
GBPNZD + NZDJPY = GBPJPY
GBPCAD + CADJPY = GBPJPY
GBPCHF + CHFJPY = GBPJPY
GBPEUR + EURJPY = GBPJPY

so why trade GBPJPY by looking at only 2 pairs , while we can trade it based on 12 pairs ?!

Same approach can be applied to any pair.

Generalising that,

GBPJPY = GBPXXX + XXXJPY . where XXX represents any/all other currencies.

Generalising that further,

XZ = XY + YZ. where X,Y,Z represents any currency.

I started live trading on a small real $ account.
I am using ea version Yen_Trader_04_TS on NZD/JPY today.
Looks good so far....
The 3 sell orders have triggered within the last 2 hours
ea placed on 30 minute chart, 1 hour signal time frame
Major Pair Code NZD/USD
Dollar Yen Pair Code USD/JPY
Yen Cross Pair Code NZD/JPY
3 max orders
1000 Stop loss ( which is really 100)
3000 TP (which is really 300)
Trailing stop 300
Trail Stop Shift 30

looking at 12 pair could be interesting - but i am worried how we action if half of 12 pairs says buy buy half says sell.
basically, 12 pair might contradict with each other..
need to think about..
