Is this real money? Execution in real time and demo accounts are like apples and oranges. Many demo accounts make money ... which is the hook, then you open the account and the execution isn't the same and there is slippage.
And yes, the dollar rally today was due to the ECB raising rates.
The bot has a slippage allowance the user can adjust. It wont buy if the slippage is greater than the spread unless you change it.
No this is not real money. I'm still testing. I'm not risking my house down payment on this.
From the other forum I like Jasons idea of a 5 PIP trailing stop loss and a 100 PIP S/L But I think the trailing stop is too low and the S/L is too high.
And bubbleOz mentioned changing the aaa bbb functions up to 22 and 23 respectively. No one seems to know what that is for but Bubbleoz backtested it and this setting had a better draw down with less trades.
I'm just going to try Jasons optimization without adjusting the unkown parameters.
