Multisystem v18 has hedging function too. Demo two days, working ok. Not like Kiss, totally dependent on EUR . Once EUR drop, the DD drop. V18 has 1% close all function, and no external parameter changed it. Using it as scalping tool, maybe it is a good choice. Even during Asia market, it is possibile to get 1% profit. Met on last Friday. But trailing is still a issue, even 60 pips profit, may turn into loss if without human intervention. Conclusion, if swap free, it is a good scalping tool. Still not mature.

Downloaded Kiss 2 new version to test if it is a mature one for the long run. and other Multisystem 30.
Still doubt, they are not mature enough. I am scared to put them to real account. As I have lost a big amount of money due to the Kiss V3.

All in all, profit come from DD, is not a good way. If the EA DD is more than 10%, dont use it. As we are not sure how wild the markets condition will be.

Perhaps two older EAs - CableRider + ESW v3 - together with Manual interventions may be a solution of all the trouble the bots are suffering from actually.
So I'll start new accounts of these 2 EAs at next monday and since then will watch what manual interventions may improve hopefully.

I let the KISSes run further of course. I think they will survive this time .... but will they do so next time ? :? :roll:
Only one of them, the v2, is doing a great job going stable through all these market storms raging the last time so abominably. :shock:


The MSF v18 is a very slow trading EA - much more time is needed to make a conclusion. ;)
Hi, AGT, I'm leaning towards your point of view also, I think an equity manager is essential though. I have already been demoing Multispeedway v2 with equity manager with some success. http://www.myfxbook.com/portfolio/multi ... ty/1447183 . I like Multispeedway v2 because of the clever hedging, your margin level stays safe, what i've noticed is it builds alot of trades during ranging markets, but when the markets turn and trend, it turns profitable. This is where the Equity manager takes the profit and closes all trades and then starts over again. Next week I'm planning to re-visit Eurospeedway V2 with Equity Manager and will post Myfxbook link then.

Greg
did you close all the big pips lost pairs manually on 19/11/2015, or equtity manager did. What is the setting for equilty manager 0.01 lots 6 pairs? $20 or fixed pips? Thanks. It looks all right, if without human intervention. As the remained position is pretty new, 11/12/2015. It never happened on Kiss. Maybe a little bit tuning can reduce the drop down, like grid set up etc.

I abandoned the FK v1 + v3: they generated to high DDs for me.

Perhaps the v3 is a great bot - but with the default settings it's to agressive. I think the v3 will survive and recover sooner or later, but who knows when this will happen ?
Anyway, we have here some guys like "rjectweb" posting recently good proposals for tweaking the settings. Maybe someone else will find out better setfiles ?

Have some more hope for the v2a, this one is doing the better job, so I let it run.

I'm a bit confused about the v2 - never had since start a single BUY trade ? :?


:hi:

I know for multisystem v18, it did. if you set swap free. V3, even you set never mind swap, they still never buy EURAUD, EURUSD. That is so amature. I tried V2 as scalping during London session.

Unfortunately, it seems another one bite the dust.

The MultiSystemForex V18 H1 had a bad start into the new year - high DDs are developing during the last days ! :cry:

Same here for MultiSystem, had huge d/d, some trades took margin calls, so it lost all closed profits + 1/2 starting account balance. It is still going on demo, possibly can make back the gains, but another run like this week makes it seem not worthwhile continuing the test.

ForexKiss v2, is still going, but currently in d/d of around 5% so let's see if it gets through the next week. Seems no matter which grid I try the same as MultiSystem always happens eventually.

Cheers

I think V2 doing all Sell trades is a bug in the EA. However, it does appear to be a plus rather than a minus in this case. V3 takes buys and Sells but V2 is doing better. I normally would not say taking only Sells is a good thing, but in V2's case it seems to be working well.

Thanks Paul - you are right, just checked history and never a buy in sight. :(
