@dev800 Thanks for the articles. I have read them before and agree with most what they say there. One good thing is that unlike latency arbitrage, most brokers do not have a problem with triangular arbitrage, because it does not affect them like ...

@eatrader75 Not sure if it will work, because after you determined that the 3 trades you just opened opened at the wrong positions because of slippage you will then be at a even more unfavourable position to correct it using scaling. What I did in ...

@artico01 I have checked out the SMFX standard account and it looks fantastic. The spread/commission on the standard account is the lowest I have seen anywhere with multiple arbitrage crosses an hour. How trustworthy is this broker ? Have you done ...

@eatrader75 I also do not use OnTick. Too slow. I also know and have partially developed a 2 legged or latency arbitrage system, but problem with latency arbitrage is that brokers REALLY do not like it. It works, but they close your account or ...

As soon as I find a solution to the trade delay, which causes slippage then this will really be a killer. You are losing a lot of the profit just because of slippage. Easily more than 70% of the profit disappears to slippage. @Everyone I checked the ...

@arico01 and @eatrader75 Looks nice. Seems like you 2 have got different accounts seeing that the spread/commission on arico01 is way lower than eatrader75. What account types do you two have with Solitary Markets ?

@Geges Yes it is possible to open and close so fast. If it wasn't for slippage then this strategy can easily work long term. You can see this in your strategy tester by just opening the 3 symbols and leaving to run for a couple of years. The ...

@artico01 I think there was a miscommunication. I do not need access to your account. I just wanted to see the logs of the EA. You can access the logs by clicking on the EXPERTS tab and it will display the logs. Then right click inside that tab on ...

@eatrader75 Thanks, but it will not work for single trades or multiple symbols. It only allows you to close multiple tickets on the same symbol for the execution time cost of one reverse trade. In this case I open one ticket per symbol so closing ...

@artico01 That looks very good. Once this EA can improve the slippage problem then you can make a killing with that broker. Which account is it ? Is it possible to send me the log of the EA ? I would like to analyse the results and maybe the ...

@artico01 That is fantastic spreads. What can I do to get an account like that ? I'm still working on the slippage problem. I found that slippage is extremely bad on MT4, but much better on MT5 so if you can use MT5 on that broker then I suggest ...

@Forex-Loser Spread is actually not a problem. Spread just determines how often an arbitrage opportunity it hit, but once hit then spread plays no role. So spread determines number of trades and therefore also the amount of profit. Increasing the ...

@badeel Wow ok. EA 19 is still untested. I would strongly suggest not to use on live account. I'm also working on some large changes to the EA, but it will take time. Just saying. Do not use on live. A lot of work still need to be done to negate the ...

@raffus Unlikely. Look in the logs at the slippage for the open and close of those trades. The slippage is massive. Swap is so small that it does not even play a role. Also the EA does take into account commission. Problem is slippage on the open ...

@raffus Not quite, but I am working on a theory where an unbalanced arbitrage where all lots are the same might help. Bigger draw down, but bigger profit and more trades. Still testing it. Requires quite a bit of changes. Hopefully will have ...

@Everyone Hang on. This slippage problem is killing this strategy. It can handle a couple of pips slip, but 5 or more pips will eat up the profit. I am working on an idea that just might kick the slip between the legs. Wait a bit for me to create ...

@eatrader75 Strange that you can not run multiple EAs in your metatrader. I have no problem. But in any case. Do not run multiple copies of this EA on the same account, even if on different terminals. The EA uses a lot of margin and if 2 of these ...
