[not sure when I left it on it's own, running 3 accounts this way was to much for me]

The profits are 'slightly' less than my manual traded accounts, but so is the DD.... :smile:
Since the start of this account in the beginning of july 2017 the account nearly quadrupled!
:!!:
Thanks Gertje
I was starting to wonder because my demo isn't doing much, it only accumulates DD
Which set file are you using for that orphan demo account please?

Maybe 1 or 2 pairs have changed from one chart to the other, depending on 6th distance.
This account uses TP@6th, and since it is fully automatic, also recovery=true.
GBPUSD just closed a major basket on the recovery settings.

Thank you.

And the live [cent]account is even doing better.... :smile:
Just passed the 3K mark today, starting with $400,-
From october 1 till now it has tripled.
As soon as the equity catches up with the balance I'm moving over to GP, I feel confident it will work this time.

Thanks, good job, I will fix it up.
I wish you all the best in your live account

Do you know how much your max DD was in dollars (or your unit currency) also so you know what size trades were being taken at that point? I'd be interested in working out the worst case DD if lot sizes weren't increased as account size grows.

Also do you have any other accounts on fxblue that you don't mind sharing, I'd be interested in tacking them ongoing seeing how they perform / DD as market conditions change.

Thanks

Zaf

Is this a nano or micro account?
Just wondering how you managed it when the minimum need was $1000 to trade the least volatile pairs?

Don't now the exact lingo, but with this account, the $400,- deposit shows in the Empty4 as $40.000 [cents].

The minimum lotsize is still 0.01 so you can trade like a big shot with;
MDP=100 dollup is $2500/0.01lot; 0.16 lots
MDP=150 dollup is $3333/0.01lot; 0.12 lots
MDP=200 dollup is $5000/0.01lot; 0.08 lots
