7 Jan is when I began using RSI as an entry criteria for opening a grid. Using Custom Analysis (7 Jan to now) EURCHF is the only pair with a loss - but this was on the old strategy without using RSI. Even with RSI, I think EURCHF trends too much to be suitable for my account strategy.Will look to add a couple more pairs when I increase my available margin more.

Added GBPCHF - $15,000 for 15 pairs = $1000 / pair (not the rule I am going by though). Perhaps even at $20,000 I won't increase trade sizes to 0.02, since I had my margin level go quite low today (I saw 1500%, but I am sure it went even lower after looking at the charts!). 😎

...plus NZDJPY, GBPNZD, GBPAUD, CHFJPY... fourteen pairs is enough? I don't like seeing my account sit there with no trades open - it's too boring! I need excitement in my life - I don't get any anywhere else!0.01 lots per $10,000 across the board.

Adding GBPUSD also. A third pair should be okay...? My concern is if all three pairs opened trades at once (starting level 0.05 lots) and drawdown kills my margin... but considering the short length of recent trades with RSI setting selected I think this risk is minimal. Perhaps I could add up a fair few more pairs...? Ah! I'll make starting lots 0.01 and add further pairs."A stitch in time saves nine!" Test many pairs together now with minimal capital and risk, so I can determine how much margin I can expect with 0.01, then I can work out whether to increase risk with larger tra...

Well, two pairs now with AUDUSD and XAUUSD @0.01 lots. I think this is quite safe. 😎

Since 24 hours ago, "Open 1st Order by RSI" indicator has been selected - with promising results! I hate drawdown, so it is good to see this setting help the EA close all orders more promptly (helping to avoid the EURUSD incident).RSI settings at 15 and 85 on RSI period 5. I am thinking 0.01 lots per $6,000 is adequate margin. So far (only today) grid has reached a max trade size of 0.14 (therefore, 0.02 would have resulted in a max trade size of 0.28 today). Is it too soon to up the risk...? 😎Later, I hope to increase this to 0.01 per $10,000 (just in case).

3 Feet From GoldOne of the most common causes of failure is quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat ~ Napoleon Hill.In his book “Think and grow rich”, Napoleon tells the story of the miner who lost a fortune because he quit just three feet from gold.This story is valuable because it highlights the fact that many people give up on their dreams way too early and too easily.It was back in the day, and our subject was overcome by the “gold rush fever”.He left his home in Maryland and headed west to Colorado where he staked a claim and got to work with pick and sh...

Not happy about current exposure on my account (mainly due to EURCHF). Margin 600% (6x). This is the same setup I had for the EURUSD which blew $15,000 last time because I held it thinking it would reverse sooner rather than later (reversed later). It is only a matter of time, but the question is if I have enough margin in my account to weather the movement.No, I don't want a repeat of EURUSD incident. I have closed all positions with CloseAll script, and I am putting EA on only XAUUSD (damn, I wish I got that movement yesterday on my real account! Damn, too many regrets over all that mone...

...yeah, crazy freaky volatility XAUUSD! Watching demo account on mobile MT4 and witnessed first-hand the considerable 3%+ drawdown suddenly flip and become a 25%+ profit!!Damn! Shoulda put XAUUSD on my real account! Mind you, this move was favourable. I need to keep in mind if the move was unfavourable.Or is this a perfect example of how Demo ALWAYS outperforms Real?

Update: Margin on both Demo and Real are at just over 4000% (40x).XAUUSD (Demo only) = exposure of 0.58%. Was 0.25 lots, now 0.43 lots. Was 14 trades, now 18 trades. XAUUSD very volatile but excellent for this strategy (almost feels like a wild animal that I must tame - exciting stuff!)

Aims: a) 2%+ daily return b) $10,000 per pairPlan:a) @$20,000 assess daily returns and risks, keeping in mind $24,000 with five pairs ($5000/pair) risked too much with EURUSD in a strong trend. Add a third pair only if comfortable risk levels were maintained.b) @$30,000 as above - only add 4th pair if risk level is comfortable ($7500/pair).c) keep 3 pairs until $40,000.(Subject to pair tests later this month.)Correction: Commissions returned will only be a quarter of what myfxbook says - this tally is TOTAL commissions paid (IC Markets offer $1.60 per RLT - @460 lots I can expect perhaps $736 ...

Margin was as low recently as 4400% (4.4x deposits). Now hovering around 36,600% (366x), but that quickly gets chewed when the market trends and positions are opened with increasing size. Seems two pairs are okay for now (AUDUSD and EURCHF)... I won't add another pair until I have made it to $20,000, at which point it will be approximately $6666 per pair (currently ~$4000 per pair). This won't be long, as I am contributing extra when I receive my commissions returned around 12 January (looking like $4000+)Today is looking like 5%+ return, which is above my target of 2%, so I will be ha...

Many think forex is a scam because they lose money, and they lose because: A) believing false marketing (often hyped over the reality of the system being sold), or B) scam brokers (who create slippage, steal deposits, refuse withdrawals, etc.)Anyone with two brain cells can see the possibilities with all the volatility in forex, but the marketers and brokers take advantage of this and suck people in with claims that "they can help you achieve this" (when usually they can't achieve this even themselves). So they must resort to stealing people's money when buyers ask for a refu...
