You are asking the same question regarding the EA inputs again, but I will answer it anyway.Sorry, of course I mean product distribution but thank you for giving the group the chance to use it as well as a group buy!
Is there an input to close trades with a dedicated loss or does it layer trade after trade no matter which loss?
1. Stop Loss & Risk Management:Because this is a Martingale EA, there is no hard 'per trade' stop loss. You must use an Equity Protection EA (like Equity Sentry) and a News Filter EA.
- The Reality: This might sound controversial, but this EA does not backtest well in the MT5 strategy tester, so I am relying purely on live real-account testing.
- My Experience: When I tested my personal EA (which uses the same logic but a dual grid), the equity stop loss was hit a few times a year.
- Variables: It all depends on your balance, your lot size, and where you set your equity stop.
- Safe Route: Use a very large balance with a small lot size.
- Aggressive Route (My Method): Use a smaller balance (e.g., 10k cents) and accept the risk. I stop trading during news events.
Final Advice:Prepare your mind: This is Martingale. Only invest money you can afford to lose.I have already provided tons of risk settings to the group organizer ('Goodman'). In fact, I found a new setting on Friday:
- Before News: 375 profit.
- After News: I tried a new idea, and by the end of the day, the profit hit 780.
