I've just changed all of my settings to be in line with yours. Takes some time when you have multiple EAs running! Bring on the pips!
Text book trade last night. +29 pips for +7.26%. :clap:
I think the market moved a little in my favor before the trade got closed. I'm ok with that.
Actually, I changed up some settings so now I should get about 7% per good trade instead of 6%.
I get to play the waiting game.
There was a buy signal but for some reason the $2M account didn't trigger. I manually placed a buy when it was down 50 pips. I'm going to ride it to where the buy should have been. Should get about +10%.
Keep watching.

That's wierd...the buy signal didn't trigger on one of my EAs this morning also. Could be a blessing in disguise though looking at the current GBP/USD rate

I will keep an eye on the EA that failed to trigger this morning. I'm a bit suspicious as I have the following warning message on my MT4 experts tab that was logged at 0615GMT:
22:15:06 TurboMorningTrade_EA_1.0 GBPUSD,M15: zero divide
Not sure whether it is a coincidence that this happens the day after I change the EA settings. :?:

Sometimes the filter will prevent a buy trade. Yeah, it saved you at least a head ache for you today.
This may be a long one.
Ok, just a little update on the trade from last night. It currently is still in a draw-down. Tonight's possible set-up could be a buy. That in mind, I will not be making a buy because that just could be double jeopardy (double risk). Now, if it turns out to be a sell, I will do a hedge because the normal rules apply and won't effect the draw-down.
Now, when there are these draw-downs, it can be a good time to pick up some extra pips if one isn't badly leveraged to begin with. I started a buy after the original trade was already -80 pips so that can potentially earn me a little extra % for the week.
With the $2M account, for some reason that account failed to trade at all. Because my other accounts did trade, I felt it would be ok to go ahead and make a trade. I entered about 50 pips below where it would have opened a trade so, assuming the trade goes good, should pick up about 10%.
The drama continues. :cheesy:

Depending on which account you look at, there was +1, +2, or +3 pips. :clap:
All open trades just may close out today, in profit, I may add.

One of my open long trades closed today (plus 5 pips ). It was the long trade on the account that I had to manually enter, and hence the price I got in at was lower at 1.5848! I still have two long trades running that were opened at 1.5858. It was very close today...I could almost smell the pips! Fingers crossed for tomorrow!
I know! I was about 4 pips away from breaking even. But, on one of my manual trades that I opened 88 pips below the open price of this trade, it closed out for 88 pips.
Now, market is retracing a bit. I opened another buy, now that the market was 50 pips below where the original trade opened. This time, I think I'll move this manual trade to BE when it gets positive 50 pips and shoot for the weekly pivot point at around 1.59400.
So annoying that the trade saw just a breath away from being safe. It keeps hitting that resistance line and bounces off.
In the past, if I would have closed it out early, I would have missed 26 pips. This time, I'm just pretending I am on vacation and can't check the trade. I'm just letting it go. Fingers crossed. :whistling
