This insane volatility has been rough to deal with lately. After how the FGB handled it...I honestly would prefer that the markets continue to go crazy. I will be rich by next month! :)

Testing these setting over a longer period would be pointless. The market does not act the way it used to. The current market requires different settings that operate efficiently with the way it acts now. My old setting which worked well over the past year, have made very little in the past couple of months due to losses. I am quite certain that over the long term, these settings will not be the best due to the way this EA trades. it will be necessary to update them again when the market changes again, as it always does.

You do an optimization with the mt4 strategy tester. If you do a search on google you will find lots of info about it.

Wow. Wish i had thought to optimize for the recent price data earlier. Did a test with 99% accuracy and with my new settings....using 0.1 lot size....from June 1st through aug 10th......I show a gain of nearly +$9000. Not curve fit either. That is approximately +9000 pips in about 2.5 months. The drawdown was about 12% at max. the absolute drawdown was about $250. FGB is a very impressive EA...if you remember to update the settings every once in a while.

HA! Serves them right for screwing people over. I wouldn't be surprised if most brokerages do this kind of stuff though.

Yeah...I think we are on the same page....just describing the same thing differently.

mirusevxs33, I am not sure where you are getting your information. I am getting mine from people that have looked into setting up brokerages, people who have worked at brokerages, and from people who work at the liquidity providers, like boston technologies. The accounts you really have to watch the brokers for is the 4 digit price feeds. Those are run through a dealing desk and the order fills are not actual market fills. A lot are taken by the broker in opposition to the trader. In the ECN/STP accounts, the brokers can't take the other side of the order and trade against the client....ot...

From what I understand, I believe the 5 digit pricing is available to us retail traders because that is how the interbank market prices everything. Without the 5 digit pricing, ECN and STP accounts are not possible.

Just read it. That is true ECN/STP behavior. Unless there is super high volume and the market isn't moving fast, AND you have super fast order execution, slippage is pretty much guaranteed. I can say that FXCM is the only broker that I have received positive slippage with. Even this last week when the EURUSD gapped up about 150pips (i had a long position)....FXOpen's ECN platform gave me the order fill. It was, of course at my TP level, which was about 100 pips less than what the market opened at.

Why is that?

Million Dollar Pips dans Systèmes de Trading Aug 13, 2011 at 02:38

I have had pretty good luck with a finfx normal account. FXOpen seemed to have a little faster response than finfx. Maybe physical location vs server location though. In all honesty, the fastest broker I have dealt with was FXCM. Their order execution was so fast it almost felt like the order was executed before I could even click the mouse. That was not with their mt4 platform though, it was their Trade Station II software. I have heard a few people say that the absolute fastest responding broker is MB Trading, but they don't work right with MDP. Also, recently I have read some posts that...

Those timings are very good on Iamfx. Best i have seen anywhere as a matter of fact. I am getting 400ms with FXOpen but my VPS is a little over 1500 miles away from the server location. One good thing about my ECN account is, my effective spread (spread plus commission). The real spread averages around 0.7 pip and the commission is 0.25pip. So my effective spread sits at about 1 pip.

Normally, I look at demo account tests with some validity. With MDP, demo accounts have zero validity except to say that in a perfect environment it succeeds.The biggest challenges to MDP are slippage and execution speed. In a demo account, slippage doesn't happen. So, you always get perfect order fills. In the real world, you will only sometimes get the price you send the order for. It will almost always be slipped by at least a few tenths of a pip. This would be no big deal if your target is 20 pips, or 50pips, or greater. When you are trying for 1 pip, or 4 pips...then slippage becomes...

What were the results of your timing tests?

Million Dollar Pips dans Systèmes de Trading Aug 12, 2011 at 18:00

Does anyone know of (or have experience with) whether or not MDP works with FXOpen's ECN account. As far as i am aware, there should be nothing hindering it from doing so. It meets the low spread and fast execution requirements. Plus there are no restrictions form placing pending orders close to the bid/ask price.I have read in a couple places where people had some trouble with the stop orders getting rejected but they didn't say if the account was ECN or not. I know this EA would not work on their non ECN accounts because of the order closing in less than one bar and limitations on pe...

I actually think this is a pretty good policy. Why would anyone want a refund if it was making money? If you happened to join in a month with a Stoploss hit, it would be easy to show your account wasn't profitable. Anyway..... currently the markets are crazy....what can you expect?

I can support Bill in that. Everything is business as usual for FXOpen. I have been making quite a lot of money working through them. I know they have a lot of US clients and very much do not want to lose them. There are a lot of bad brokers out there, but FXOpen is not one of them. The CFTC is just going after them because they are in a position that the CFTC has not been able to control. They are grasping at straws trying to gain complete control and are using whatever means necessary. Worst case senario, FXOpen will have to move their US located online servers overseas. The CFTC is stepping...

FXOpen is an excellent company. I have traded through them and others. I would venture to say that they are as good if not better than any other company. Before you jump to conclusions, you should research a bit. try finding FXOpen in the Delaware corporate registry. I hunted for them when i first heard about this lawsuit because i was under the impression that they had no US presence. I have tried to find them in the registry for several days now. The registry still keeps saying they don't exsist. I think this is just the American government trying to dictate world policy again. I hope th...
