You've got an impressive equity curve - nice.
Don't you get worried on days like today when your 5K down?
You don't appear to have had a day when you get stopped out yet. What is your stop loss set to? Just wondering how much could get wiped out on a bad day.
Thanks.
StopLoss=150, so a full loss would be ~25%.
Wackena, you mentioned that a full loss would be 25%, however, it ic currently in a larger drawdown then 25% and some of the trades are in over 150 pips drawdown. Could you pls. comment on how the 150 stop works (is it only on the 3rd and 4th trades). Because 150 or 250 stop on a Martingale (say on trade #4) could wipe out more then a 150 or 250 stop on the first trade when the number of lots is smaller. Your feedback is really appreciated. Best regards.

Hi Wackena,
Thanks for sharing you knowledge and experience with us. I have another question, it might be silly :)
The GMToffset string, when do you need it? I use and UK based broker (GMT) and my PC is in GMT+1. Do i need to use V4f with GMToffset = 1?
Thanks!
In v3f and v4f, the GMTOffSet needs to be set to your Broker's GMT. If you broker is GMT, then set GMTOffSet=0.

Wakena, thank you for your help.
Are the following settings correct for a five digits account
- stoploss2 = 2500 (2500 for version v4)
- stoploss = 1500 (1750 for v4)
- trailingstop = 590 (720 for v4)
Bests regards
No, you should upgrade to v4e or v4f.

Hi, v4f no longer has the 131 error. jut as you said. thanks
Today it traded several time, but it fired very large trades that lead to margin calls (see one of them below):

Whilst it was setup on a 10k account, on its won, I did not expect the EA to trade 23.3 lots of standard size (account type =0). Is this normal?
Thanks for your input.

AccountType=0 - minimum lot step is 1.0
AccountType=1 - Minimum lot step is 0.1
AccountType=2 - minimum lot step is 0.01.

Hey Wackena and friends,
I assuming this EA does not use hedging? If so, has anyone thought about adding hedging ability?
Also, any thoughts about the ability of this EA to work with other currencies, like Euro Yen, Cable, etc.?
Wackena, you the man,
Thanks for your wonderful gift

SunnyDays posted:Wayne, yes, I am thinking about it now actually. That's the key which would make this EA successful in a long term, but it is a difficult task to find something which hedges the whole exposure or a large % of it. I am sure that Wackena and the individuals who made this EA have already tried finding ways to do this.

I was thinking about a strategy that runs a parallel trending robot on the same pairs, while reducing the risk% on each pair. If the market runs, then the trending robot might cancel much of the martingale loss.

Not being familiar with what the EA does yet, let me ask a very simplistic question: If the EA sends out a single to go short and after being in the short position and let's say, down, 200 pips, if a signal is sent out to now go long, will the EA also enter the long here while holding the short, or must the short hit its stop, etc. and close the position before the long signal can be acted on?
This is the simple idea i had in mind when talking about hedging.

Hi Wackena,
Probably the question is a bit absurd,
I have realized several tests, ( v4b), during the year 2009, 2010,
And the results are very good, spectacular,
Nevertheless, and after optimizing previous periods,
For example, 2007 for 2008, I do not find valid parameters
Later the first semester 2008 and test of the second semester of the same year, I do not manage to obtain result positives,
Have you some idea?
Probably this EA, this one very optimized for the period 2009?
I am a bit disconcerted,
Thank you

Don't trade live a marty system when it doesn't survive a full 10 year backtest and random backtests with the same setting!
Margin call waits right around the next corner...😝

Wayne, it seems that it will not take the trades opposite an existing position (meaning that it will wait to get in profit or get stopped out first.) you could hedge this way, but it will only reduce your risk in very minimal way compared to the negative balance you would be running on your last martingale trades (like trade 3 and 4).

Yep. That's the only way you can do it in the long term. Huge account, small gains. That is the only way so far that I know of. There is no free lunch, even in Forex.

Small gains? Aiming for 50% ROI per year beats G.Soros best performance by far...😎
