Some really good posts and ideas in this thread now. I spent years using Blessing 3 and super money grid (which does have a hedge/balance parameter) and have to agree with guru and drolph regarding closing a basket as soon as possible the higher the ...

Using this EA around news releases is great when set to Stops, well it was on demo anyway. Live, using a Razor account, with commission and usually low spreads I am getting hammered. The spread on UC today widened from 0.5 to 16.4 just as the news ...

Trapping System: Grid

Bauta, I am testing 103.021 on 2 demo accounts and 1 live account. Same version with default settings but the grid increments and targets are different. I am guessing the grid increments are worked out by the ATR? So wondering why they are ...

Hi Bauta, 2 questions, did you see at 11 am GMT tomorrow ECB president Draghi speaks, are you not planning to set your symmetry to closure mode? For 103.021 what size account is required for EU with standard settings?

I have been testing 103.021 for 2 weeks on E/U and G/U, since this Tuesday I swapped G/U for N/U. Had a brief go on E/Chf but dropped that. E/U and N/U both hit 5.12 lots once. url

bauta, just seen your pm, you have a reply in you inbox.

That would explain it, I have been running 021 on E/U and G/U on demo and cautiously went to try it live to see if it performs the same as many EA's do well on demo but not live in my experience. 020 seems to use the Fibonacci sequence unlike 021.

Is symmetry 103.021 only set to function on demo accounts?

Expanding Grid

bauta, your fxglory demo that is today -91.4% is that running symmetry 103.21?

Yes $1000 is a small starting balance, I think bauta recommended $50,000 per pair so $150,000 for 3 pairs. $170 is a good weekly return on $1000 but how long will it last? Any major event like what happened to Eur/Chf in January or an earthquake or ...

$200, is that running symmetry? If so, I assume you are not starting with 0.01 per 50k?

Thank-you FFBinary for the link. I took a break from trading when that was posted so I had not read it. Basically, Pepperstone will stop out our trades ( I believe the S/O level is 10%) before negative equity is reached but if the market moves fast ...

Pepperstone Forex

I have a question for Pepperstone clients. Do Pepperstone have a negative balance protection scheme in place like some other Brokers? The below picture is from FXGlobe. not Pepperstone. Obviously it is a rogue spike and did not occur on any other ...

I was testing symmetry on demo, 6600 GBP account. Starting lot 0.01. All was ticking along nicely until this happened last night. It is FXGlobe by the way. So it went from +6,600 to - 180,000 in a matter of seconds

Hi bauta, Instead of starting with your current EA I decided to start with 103 V_100.019 and work my way through the versions. I am testing symmetry. Do you have a post explaining the parameters? I looked in the attachment section but could not find ...

Are they? It did happen before and I recorded it on my mobile phone thinking I would need it to send to Pepperstone support to prove it had frozen. But they replied to my email apologising for the freeze, telling me it was a problem their end. ...

I have 3 live platforms with different brokers open 24/5 and today soon after the news release my Pepperstone platform froze for 58 seconds at 1:32 pm. I do trade the news releases so it does matter. Anyone else notice that? The other 2 platforms ...

Yes I find it easier to cut and paste the wording from the news event. Also I noticed that if I add 2 news events to the "Pick_up_news" parameter it would not show a "1" in global variables unless I used a comma after and no spaces after the first ...

How to trade NFP ?... => with NFP EA

Hi, Yes, when I copy and pasted "Cash Rate" into "Pick_up_news" I get a "1" after "GV_FxCal_News_Filtered" I also tried it with "RBA Rate Statement" and the "1" appears. Tomorrow when some Red high impact news is scheduled I will observe how the EA ...
