My demo was going great, after two days, 90 pounds in profit, most of it with EURUSD.
Then today its reeled back in and hit zero / break even so all the gains gone
Maybe I should have grabbed the profit while I could. The age old question!!!

Hi All, My demo has started off well, in profit already. Just wondering if this robot will close the trades automatically or should I do this manually or with a trade manager. Trades have been open around two days, I suppose not very long for a daily trader. Should these trades be open for at least a week at a time? Cheers! Jon. |

Hi Jon Marilyn closes trades on her own. Don't worry. As you can see from phil's results, trades can be open for one month or longer... fluegel |

no cause, if €/$ have gone up to rally its resistance at 1.3650, you will be out the trend. I know it's a little bit frustrating, but long term is better than short one. (re-read my posts about my FT test over 2009/2013) |

I had a couple of "false starts" with AUDUSD on the new demo I set up and thought I might have been unlucky with the starting date of the demo but then it took off. I actually manually closed half the positions last night as I was +40% floating with those. This is just using auto lot sizing. Nice!! Cheers, Dave. |
