My first FX martingale attempt

I am working on combining power of inverse = false and inverse = true flag in a single bot. So far no luck but somehow i have a feeling that it is going to be a fruitful endeavor

Yesterday my VPS got restarted so i lost several trades and thus has to close the algo ( take a loss ) and restart again .

And guess what , now my algo is not even able to execute market orders (because of some technical issue as per log ) and thus my algos are failing. I doubt that broker would have done something ( but it is not completely unlikely also ). The good thing is that i will have to put some strong error checking in the code but i am highly suspicious about brokers.

Just to update you guys on CurrencyStrength Bot ( i haven't shared it yet )..it is doing great and it is definitely going to be part of my live algos next month.

Updated both V0 and V2 bots files to make it more reliable to execution errors which i recently faced and also less updates/modify messages sent to server making it light for broker's server. Hope you will find it useful.

Also extended expiry to mid April for everyone to play around !

Impressive given what the markets looked like last week. Keep this eye candy going, not to add pressure or anything.

Yeah mate, last week was crazy accompanied with all the technical issues i faced. In some sense, i am happy to have these technical issues so that i can resolve them before going full blown live

I read about those technical issues and I wanted to send you the instructions I had used to force my Windows 10 Pro not to restart whatsoever in any case but time got taken away and by then, I assumed you researched and found this information yourself?

With Windows 10 Pro I had to try a few things before it really worked but if you still need the instructions, I could look through my settings to reverse engineer what actually worked to not restart under any circumstance.

Thanks for the help mate but i had a heated discussion with my VPS provider and they disabled Windows Update program and assured me that it is going to have 100% (almost) up time. Only issue remaining is if my connection with broker fails or cTrader/cAlgo crashes ?? I haven't figured out a way to it yet but i suppose nothing is 100% perfect in life !

thats easy, run a myfxbook ea.

if account does not update = there is an issue. in myfxbook settings you can set the warn time, i have mine at 10 minutes.

that also helps if platform freezes, or broker server does not send ticks anymore.

Not that easy mate. myFXbook doesn't update frequently without having any underlying issues so it is not reliable. Also i use ctrader/calgo so not sure which myFXBook 'EA' are you talking about ( i have heard about something on FXBlue but it is valid only for mt4)

yes 1 way mate. It depends on your broker ( mine charges 30$ / million one side but in live i pay less that that )

Today is going to be a struggle for Risky Martingale. It has already beeb stretched to its max on EURJPY and EURUSD..let's see what happens ? Bust or Recover from here !!

yes i think its for mt4 only as far i know.

but you posted screenshots from myfxbook so you had it working at one time i think.

myFXBook linking with cTrader/cALgo has nothing to do with an EA ( probably for mt4 you need an EA for it ). In any case, i will keep exploring options to monitor my account.

Finally it did recover and is up 6% for this week so far. Still way more way to go ..i still need 4% from rest of the remaining week from my RISKY martingale!
