Also, Joe, have you considered using the ATR for TP and SL? Presumably that would prevent any extended-time holding of positions, if it fails to hit the fib levels for exits. Sometimes it might be OK to have a loss, to clear the table.

Joe: Do you know how often the DD exceeds ten percent, or something similar. My thinking is that I can kill off trades at a given level, presuming that each of those events might progress to a wipeout. I note with interest that XUX has encoded a 10% Global equity closure for Euro/CHF, in his setup for SSS 30 min. For example, perhaps the DD remains less than ten percent for 95% of all trades, then killing off those that exceed that amount would shoot the black swans before they can land. Very interested in you out of the box idea. Regards, Glenn

Joe: I was comparing points of entry with SSS on the five min. window Euro/CHF. The price channel stop might actually be a fairly useful filter, in preventing the occasional bad trade. I also activated the SSS close on signal change feature, as an experiment. Glenn

Joe: If one focuses on the single pair, Euro/CHF, and then really hits the Lot% hard, such as 4, then the limiting profit factor will be the frequency of the black swan event. If it presumably doubles the account each month, and a black swan event occurs twice each year, the the focus can be directed to controlling the % loss of the black swan event. If one sets a Management loss limit of 15 or 20%, then this will be a small price to pay for running a monthly or bi-monthly doubling machine.How would you assess this logic?

Thanks. Already , DD is growing pretty fast. I thought the hedge and the trade manager would control the beast. Oh, well.

I am fascinated by this approach, since the five min. window might mitigate the drawdown. I started ten pairs: GU/EU/UJ/EJ/UC/EC/CJ/EG/UCAD/AudUDSClose profit at 0.5% and close loss at 10% within each pair.Also added Steve Hopwood's trade manager EA with the same 0.5/10.Obejctive is 2%/day, compounding.Off to a nice start. Cleaning the table after a global equity rise wipes out all the troublesome DD, and locks in the profit.

Very nice, Joe. What other pairs would you consider running with this one? Do you have a feel for its safety?

Thanks. I am also curious about your solution to the problem. I presume there is an intrinsic change in the logic. Glenn

Hi Wackena. Where would you go from here, my friend? Trade only EU? Someone suggested placing buys or sells for both EU and UC simultaneously, to enable them to hedge each other. Is there merit in that thought? Thanks, Glenn

What did the version 4f see that the previous version did not see, that prevented it from making the trade that interrupted the beautiful equity curve? I am trying to figure out why it was smart enough to anticipate a problem brewing.

I presume the time to activate trading is critical, since the robot is making decisions based on the daily close. Would that be shortly after 2400 hrs. GMT?

I have loaded up Aud/NZD and Aud/CAD, retained USD/CHF, and dropped Euro/USD. Peter Schiff says the dollar is due a monster collapse this year. Gerald Celente agrees. Jim Rogers says the Euro will tank, and has shorted the Euro big-time.The Aud pairs historically oscillate a great deal, with frequent retracements, and operate in a narrow range, which I think will make them ideal for this robot. A year ago, I lost a bundle to the Euro/USD using another martingale, when the pair took off like a rocket, and did not return, before I went bust. Robominer reputedly uses these Aud pairs, for this re...

Is it reasonable to presume that the loss would not have occurred had Version 4f been in play? The loss shook my growing confidence, but even so, there is still a significant profit for the month of March. Should we explore other currency pairs? Are there others you consider safer, yet profitable? Would a strategy of playing four or more pairs with, say, a risk of 5% each, improve the safety, yet still retain the profitability? Thanks, Glenn

Is the V2 graph displayed here on myfxbook actually now V4f? Could it be that Euro/USD is too volatile now for any martingale, given the political situation in the U.S. and Europe?

Wackena: Do you think Version 4 would have taken the same hit as did Version 2?

Wackena: Thank you for the explanatioin. Please advise what is the magic sauce that makes the V4 more durable?

Wackena: Have you considered a Global equity closure? There are trade management EAs that will close down all open positions at a given percent of gain or loss. I am thinking that perhaps nipping a trend in the bud might be a good strategy. It may well be that the Euro and the USD are both going to be prone to some lengthy trends, since both currencies are doomed, because of the morons in the central banks. Glenn

I was thinking about a strategy that runs a parallel trending robot on the same pairs, while reducing the risk% on each pair. If the market runs, then the trending robot might cancel much of the martingale loss.

On V4e, I see that the Stoploss2 is now 25.0, rather than 250.
