As long as they are closed at the same time I would expect them not to be affected by FIFO, or presumably the same problem would exist for the extra trades which are currently bought by the EA?

They look good to me. ADDED: I just saw RH's response. Actual experience and wisdom there rather than my amateurish thoughts! I entered the USDCAD one and it retraced a bunch very soon after I got into it. Foolishly I took the emotional decision to ...

Thank RH. I did read that some time ago (and have just re-read to refresh my memory). I'm already doing something quite similar with CaveManager, using it's 3 profit point system, as well as it's capital protection. However I don't think I'm even ...

R = whatever your risk is. So if you place your stop loss at a 50 pip loss, 1R=50 pips, 2R=100 pips, and so on.

That could be a great idea

I am finding the exits a lot more trouble to deal with than the entrances on this strategy. Banging my head against the wall a little with it to be honest. I wonder if any of the experienced traders using this strategy would be willing to post their ...

That would be excellent. Thank you. I have no coding skills but am always happy to spend time back and forward testing, as well as working on set files. I wonder if it would be a good idea to start a new thread on the platform tech area of the forum ...

I've been testing the EA standalone on a few currencies and have been able to make it do pretty well on gold, trading the 5M charts. It is making around 3.5% a month in backtests (85% tick accuracy) with the attached set file. Post your own tests ...

Personally I'm leaning towards bullish because a snap election most likely means that no deal Brexit has been put back. In any case, we're not interested in predicting the market, we're just interested in following it wherever it decides to go

Breakout London Timeframe

I honestly don't know if a snap election would be bearish or bullish for the GBP. Though I am actually leaning towards bullish. In any case I'm avoiding GBP pairs right now and focusing on pairs that are easier to follow such as the AUSCAD. I've ...

Breakout London Timeframe

I remember this UK/US breakout stuff being huge when I had my old account on here years ago. Loads of talk about it, and even a couple of EA's I helped build. Maybe I should have a look at it again.

It's surely going to be all over the place for days. There are many other pairs with clearer directions in my opinion, so why risk profits on whatever Boris spews out next.

I'm avoiding GBP pairs today. Plenty of action elsewhere

My basket for today so far. I've already taken 15 pips on two lots. Playing with different take profit levels and styles at the moment. As well as continuing to practice the strategy.

Wouldn't having a trailing stop rather than a hard stop loss mean that they would actually make profit on a 50/50 win loss ratio? I'm not saying the sl/tp ratio is correct, just that it doesn't necessarily end up break even given that it's trailing ...

I also have silver in my basket. Green all the way on the console.

audusd not looking quite as good though, I'm keeping an eye on that one, lol

That's odd. As you can see it isn't on mine. I waited for it to turn before I took the trade.

Did anyone else see EURCAD as a valid continuation trade or did I just get lucky with this one? ADDED: I would like to note that one thing that drew me to it is the long wicks on the bearish candles, and the very short bullish candles. To my amateur ...
