Droland, thanks for the nice explanation and screenshots. Great input. Keeps us thinking... SMatthew, thanks for being so generous with the NT EA.

A demo account I've been running with the EA without intervention since 5-13 started out with a $5K balance. I set the lots to .10 and the account is now over $9K. The account is trading 21 pairs with the default EA settings.

Ok, thanks Claudia1. Does Alpari UK take US citizens?

Hello Droland, You're talking about using the PSARs for entry and exit meaning that whenever the PSARs reverse you close the current trade and take the reversal, right? Thank you Droland.

Hello Claudia1, Is this live account in the US with 50:1 leverage? Also, you're closing trades out per certain criteria and not letting the EA run continuously, right? Thank you Claudia1. =)

Has anyone produced a sort of dashboard indicator for the 21 pairs (give or take) we're trading? I'm thinking it would show us when the Daily and Hourly charts are in synch like the green and red arrows do now on our chart setups. Thanks.

Nice Claudia1. I've been live for about 10 days now and I'm ahead so far. Slow and steady...=)

Yes, today has erased a lot of the profit the EA had built the last two weeks, but I often start out in the red and then end up making nice gains.

Ok, thanks for the replies Claudia1 and TheHenryFam, I appreciate them. I'm with IBFX as well in my live, mini account.

TheHenryFam, And the demo account leverage is 50:1? Wow, 110 trades open at one time without margin concerns. Amazing. Thanks again.

Claudia1, I see your lots were .50. What leverage figure (50:1 maximum here in the US) was used in the demo account you doubled in 3 days? TheHenryFam, are you using the EA's default MaxPositions setting of 8 with the lots at .01 on that $1K ...

Hmmm, I've had all 21 FX pairs' EAs set to MAXPositions = 1. This strategy has been working well for me using .03 lots in a mini account. However, this morning, my GBPUSD pair opened two trades at the same time. I'm wondering how that could have ...

One more thing before the weekend. You can also look into trading this setup using 1H and 15M charts (or even other time frames) for scalping opportunities if you want to trade higher pip values. If the 1H chart is in a up-trend, watch for the 15M ...

Really thankful for this forum. I've had severe migraines and other health issues for about 50 years now. I'm appealing a disability denial decision and waiting to talk to an attorney about all of it. I can't even convey how blessed I am to have ...

Yes, I saw the "Max Positions" in the EA's Properties, thank you 100PipADay. Always appreciate a "heads-up." It's funny, I catch myself wanting all of the pips this system can generate and just three days ago I was wondering if I'd ever make 100 ...

Now over 700 pips in the last 2.5 days in my demo account. The most the account has dropped is about 200 pips but that was after being up over 600 pips at the time so the EA is doing well so far.

TheHenryFam, Yes, excellent point about lot sizes. I have my mini account set at .05 so each pip is worth a nickle USD. I had set it at .1 but got to thinking about the EA's potential to open numerous trades per pair and changed it. I may reduce .05 ...

I also have it running on a demo account to observe the drawdown to profit behavior throughout the week. I started the demo account EA on Wednesday and it's at a +600 pips.

Yes, I have it running on a mini account. Up about 130 pips since yesterday. I closed out my trades about 3 hours ago for the weekend. I'll start up the EA again Sunday.
