Quoting Route206
Thanks - just so I understand: the longs are closed when break even, but only when price in on way down? So in the graph above it is a stop_sell order that closes the longs (buys) in point (2)? In point (1), when price is going up, you are probably loaded with shorts, so a lot of longs are bought asa hedge right? Then price continues to rise but only on its way down is the buy hedge closed. Correct? As you do not mention a timeframe, this can happen multiple times a day? Again, just trying to understand.
longs are closed if long profit is greater than zero and price crosses the grid line below the top order. opposite for shorts.
point 2 is like a stop_sell but it will close only if long profit is >= 0
after closing longs, the EA will reinitialize longs with one order and it will continue managing shorts.
yes, it may happen many times a day. If price go back up.

I am considering doubling the grid size for hedged positions, let's way to see how this version works.
stay tuned. right now I do have one live EURUSD position hedged. I will post results.
thanks, bauta
PS: I do remember on the past I did trade a grid that open one position long and one position short on every grid line crosses (top and bottom) and then closes profit side on a pullback to a grid line, working as stop orders.

Hedged idea:
this is something I do want to program on hedged position. Matching and closing orders. I will do it manually for now.

Great!
Seems you have a handle on this Bauta! What I really really like about it is that it is fully automated. Rather have less profits with finite risk, than big profits with huge swings and big DDs without bottom.
It being automated makes all the difference as the system stays in operation without emotions. Much better than manual hedges and then having to switch to manual operation of the trades. That really is a recipe for failure I think.
I do not yet fully understand the approach, but I'll sleep on it and I'm sure tomorrow it all makes sense

for USA is a little complicate, this is the outcome. Note I am from USA

  1. open an offshore company and register it on Belize, trustee, etc. (no free)
  2. open a banking account on Belize under your created company name.
  3. Open an account on a broker that allows hedge using the new created company. AaaFX per example.
  4. set yourself as employee of that company, whole share holder, or so.
  5. get paid
  6. transfer money to USA
  7. report to IRS and pay taxes
  8. everybody happy. that it is.

good luck,
bauta

the error does not apply to the market version.
After I do finalize the hedging feature, I will update market to new release.

{quote} Adding that idea to EG104 will complicate thinks too much, you may do the settings manually. This is what I have setup: Two profiles, one AgressiveQty, the other ConservativeQty in your scenario, create the aggressive, or any name you prefer, and then add all your charts to it. add EG104 with StartLotQty=0.1, now save as the profile to Conservative, change quantities to 0.01 be sure to have DayTarget in both profiles. Now you will start the week with aggressive, then when your conditions arise, you just change profile to conservative. Note...
Hi Bauta,

I did search for EA or Script that can switch between profiles but couldn't find it, could you help for this?
Thanks

Hi Bauta,
With today's move of the GBP and the earlier one of the USD I'm more and more convinced that hedging 3m before news break and unhedging 30m after, is a very effective way to prevent DDs in case a closure_mode hasn't been successful. As a matter of fact, I think it will add to the profits as after the news the markets remain volatile for a couple of hours which totally plays into the profitability of symmetry mode!
Sorry if I sound like a broken record - I've posted this before - but I really feel very strongly about this.

Hello,

Seams Dynamic Grid doesn't work correctly with this broker (Exness Cent account). Attached is EU chart. it is happening on other charts with this broker too.
I have the same setting on Forex4you but dynamic looks doing fine. Good to mention that spread are almost same 1.5 to 1.6 on both brokers for EU. Expert is last updated EG104-033e but i changed its name to not allow my broker knows what expert i am using even though i know thay can find it out if they want).
I am concern about broker intervention.
I can send you F4Y chart too.
Any advaice?
Thanks
Mohsen

Hello Bauta,
Wasn't 32c not supposed to also use dynamic gridsize for the the first 4 positions?
Judging from this EURGPB chart it starting 'going dynamic' only after the first 4 positions were taken.
Am i doing it wrong? Please advise. Thank you so much.
