Well, I don't know which minimum margin FXDD requires, but it has stopped me out all my trades last night, of course the account felt to $550. Never happened with Interbank demo, but this last doesn't work with my strategu because of the widened spreads during news.
That changes my strategy, at least with FXDD. I'm gonna beguin again with $500, only 1 pair (GBPJPY) while I'm searching a good microlot broker.
Good morning.
These are the results for last night. I'm trying GBPJPY only, TP 40, SL 60 ( I forgot to say that I've reduced SL from 80 to 60). First group +/- 50 pips from the price, second group +/- 30 pips, minimum distance ("level" in the script) 25 pips.
FXDD didn't stop out any trades. I'm gonna ask them which is the minimum required margin level.
I'm using 0.02 lots (5 microlots) for each trade in the first group, 0.01 lots in the second group. I'm thinking in create one third group, and manage this way:
- First group: 0.03 lots: only one or two trades.
- Second group: 0.02 lots: 3 to 5 trades.
- Third group: 0.01 lots: 3 to 5 trades.
Thanks FerruFX! Because this strategy was a disaster in NFP, while FXDD was a winning one, but anyway they stopped me out, thanks God at that moment there were more winnings than losing trades.
hey marcel..... i was turning your idea into a full fledged ea and noticed something when comparing results.... my mini will give only 30 cents on a 0.01 sized lot and your fxdd statement shows 3$.... it almost appears to be a standard account.... your fxdd statement, is that a mini account.....
saw you mentioned addtional lot sizes.... sometimes it helps to adjust lot sizes also by the present trend..... in other words go heavy on the long side when the trend is up and light on the short side..... , or better still avoid shorts when trend is up.... converse for when the trend is down.... and when no trend can be determined , just roll the dice with 0.01 lots.....
you can also add an hour or time to trade.... this will make it somewhat more automatic.... backtesting almost shows consistent hours when your type idea will prevail.....
here is a backtest on a quickie version of your idea in full auto ..... it has a few extras such as totalpiptarget, totalprofittarget, hour to place trades, lots size determined by trend , assorted trailing stop techniques , breakeven and a few other common deals.....
the $'s and cents results will not compare to yours due to my mini having 1/10 the payout......h
