Stochs and hybrid are countertrend traders so they need summlot or martingale (x3) to close in profit on a reversal. If you do not want to take that risk and want to trade fixed lot at least limit the number of trades to about 5 or 6. You are going ...

Looks more to mee like a hick-up at a support. Throw in a S&R indicators and have a good look. Only choice you have if it breaks is to take your loss. Btw. What is that red (up) trend line doing in this down trend ? I expect something like this....

Nope, not if you where using martingale (and perhaps not even with summlot). If you take a good look and calculate the pip distances you would conclude that a lot of trades would have been closed "tapped out" on the reversals while going down. What ...

Not only you but all those who call for "better money management by the EA's" (which in my view you should never leave that up to an EA) please come up with some concrete examples of how that should work. You all must have figured it out by now how ...

There is a very simple solution but i do not think it can be automated. As soon as (or better just before) Trump opens his mouth, stop all your trading.......

Shit happens. Stochs2 (Stochs15Trend + Stochs5NN), $1000 deposit, 0,01 summ lot (at +200% (tuesday) to 0,02 summ lot). Margin closes just before the retrace seen on other Stochs. image

Do not think that using fixed lot and not sum lot or martingale will ever work because you will not benefit from the (maybe) small retracements and close out positions in profit to minimize overall loss.

Ea's have a way to large exposure to the gbp and eur. Also do not forget that under the new upcoming ESMA rules the margin stop-out will be at 50%. If you would have starteg on a fresh $500 account you would have stopped-out already. On a $1000 ...

Looking at your balance/equity chart i do not think that the max equity drop of 10% is correct. Or maybe the chart is not correct.

Just to complete my previous post, here is a good example of a fully automated, no intervention CT 3x martingale trader. 2 months needed to build the account to +300%, only two days needed to get it back to +0%. image
