Phew! I'm out of that crappy Sugar trade! Hooray! It worked out well in the end and I'm now in full control of all of my margin again! Here's how it went; image Aside from that, I've had some more success today. It's only 11:20am, but I'm up 3.3% ...

Wow! Today was pretty crazy. Brent Crude Oil absolutely took off on the 10 min chart today - I was able to hold on though and made a nice profit. It's nice to see that being disciplined and pretty emotionless during the surge meant I was able to ...

Hi everyone. So the last couple of days were great. So far, (10am Monday morning) I have over 1% increase on my account - will let you know how the day finishes! I'm hoping that I can get 3% on the day - but more importantly I'm hoping that I can ...

Hello again. I've not got any screens to show this time - mainly because I've been entering a lot of trades because things have changed. You see, I've noticed that oil (Brent Crude and West Texas, as offered by Oanda) is more volatile and requires ...

Hope you all had a good Monday. Mine went as well as I could have hoped. I managed to close my NZD/CAD trade. This was nice as it came in whilst I was asleep. Always good to wake up to some green results. image However, I woke up this morning and ...

Another lockdown weekend finished! Hope you guys aren't losing your minds. I had a look at the open last night but didn't see anything I liked. No big moves and the spreads I saw on Oanda made any trade near impossible. I had a look again this ...

A nice way to start my weekend early! The two trades mentioned above have come in. As I'd hoped, I only had to enter them 3 times each before they hit the TP. image image

I found that the markets were making some moves during the day - what with being furlough atm, I have more time to check! The first trade I did actually came in before the end of the day. Held for less than 24 hours, which is rare for me. image ...

Basic EMA Retract Plan

Well, I went and did it again. I've now updated my 'rules' to stop myself making this same mistake over and over. I see a price that I convince myself is 'well too high/low' and I deem it to be true. I then go and create more trades based off this ...

You set a stop loss and a take profit. You've then got to walk away. Don't micromanage. It's like watching paint dry but much more painful! Trust your system, place the limits and check in on a schedule, not on a whim. You'll feel better and trade ...

Trading Emotions

I will say that it's important to realise that good systems can work for 11 months and then bite you on the 12th. Don't be emotional means you shouldn't keep swapping systems every two minutes - but do take every loss as an opportunity to learn and ...

Consistency

This is looking real good. Keep it up. It looks like your analysis is pretty on point - that winning % is pretty great, especially as you R:R is so good too! Wishing you luck. Will keep an eye on your post!

Journey to the Edge...

Hi there, I've really got nothing to add in terms of active use of this EA - but I just want to post another message of thanks to Magix. Watching this EA do its thing really helped me figure out my own trading system and style. Without it, I'd never ...

I see this thread is kind of winding down now, but I've got to chip in and say how watching this thing carry out its trades has made me a better trader. Reading through the posts here, toying with the options and having some patience when trades go ...

Just a message to say that just because I'm not posting doesn't mean I'm not grateful! I really don't feel like I have much to contribute. I'm still over here struggling with when to let trades run and when to stop them. I'm also trying to figure ...

Nice work Gilles. Mind me asking what pairs you were running the EA on? I know Magix has mentioned 'The Magic 7', but wondered if you applied and tried with any of the more 'exotic' pairs.

I like the idea, ssnijj4, but anytime someone says 'no stop loss' my internal alarms go off. You must surely have some amount of risk management in place?

Hey Magix - any chance I can get access to this EA? I've gone and donated already but haven't posted enough on the forums to be able to message you directly? I think that's what's happening anyway... image

Thanks for all the info everyone. Great to see what other people do though I have a feeling that Mrdfx is ultimately right - we all have to ultimately figure out what settings and trading methodology is right for us individually. Seeing all this ...
