As the enclosed screenshot shows the 10 pips (and 1x) grid was just perfect for the small pullbacks in the new trend: image

MGH EA has handled the EURUSD price drop with flying colors (M5 chart for better viewing): (Profits are made wherever the price goes...) image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 21, 2014
Once Batch2/Trade1 (i.e. the 3rd trade in a row) is opened the name of the game is: "ESCAPE from the BASKET". So my EA runs the same way as SwingMan's. In other words: when Batch2/Trade1 is opened the EA is already hedging Batch1 and anticipating a ...

Update on forward test (still looking good, i.e. 14.2% net profit over the past 3.5 weeks): image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 20, 2014
Actually I am using a different EA, but the same principle. Settings are simple: 1. Starting with 0.1 lot (altough I plan to reduce BatchX/Lot2 (i.e. the 2nd trade of each Batch) by 50% as per SwingMan's suggestion in this blog. 2. LotMultiplier: ...

MGH has nicely profited from sudden volatility, as profits are made wherever the price goes. And it (almost) does not matter where it goes... image

Still looking good... +12.5% (over 17 trading days): image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 17, 2014
So far +12% net profit over the past 3 weeks (profitability is not confirmed by backtests!): image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 14, 2014
Forward test is still looking good after the 3rd week, although I need to emphasize that settings are somewhat risky. Batch"X"/Trade2 lot size reduction and diversification should be used for added safety. image

Thanks for the files, SwingMan! image

Probably because we are using different EAs... In my forward tests (and backtests) I use 10k with 0.1 start lots to make life simpler... Forward test is still looking good with approx. 10% net profit over the past 13 days. Current Basket includes ...

Based on reported backtest results by Kfx (as mentioned before) it seems that with the current settings the "Death Trail" could not be avoided even with 50% Global SL, so based on multiple suggestions in this blog I would support diversification ...

Once it can be confirmed by backtests that - with the current structure and settings - the chance of a "Death Trail" is extremely low, then the next steps will be finding other suitable pairs. ________________________ Just a visual update about what ...

Above Basket has closed with +5 USD profit and new Sell Batch1/Trade1 has been opened as EURUSD is still in downtrend. Total profit: +6.58% over the past 9.5 trading days with one occasion of utilizing Batch4 (i.e. Hedge4). image

Thanks for all the ideas, guys! Lets think together how can we make MGH even better. Here is a visual update: image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 6, 2014
All credits should go to Kfx. My role in the strategy was just some tweaking and fine tuning. Yes, your observations and summary are excellent: in its "modified" version MGH is a "trend-based strategy that uses cost-averaging system that uses ...

Another textbook day for MGH... Profits are made where the market goes... NET PROFIT: +6.15% for the past 9 trading days. image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 6, 2014
Basket was closed as planned with the sell breakout. MGH has made profit where the market moved. New Batch1 sell positions have been opened. Summary: +5.6% net profit after 8.5 trading days. image

Thanks! Batch2/Batch3 Basket is in play; waiting for the 5 USD "escape" Basket TP on the "short" side. image
- Paracelsus replied Nov 5, 2014
My "modified version" can go for Batch5, although in backtests it was not needed. Nevertheless, Batch5 floating DD can reach -35% (0.1 lot/10k). In my opinion the strategy and the parameters should be designed so (and it was my goal) that it should ...
