FXQU_A1 reset..

So given the constraints of brokers and changes made I have decided to do a reset.  Two new live accounts have been created - one with ic markets and one with AxiTrader.   The AxiTrader account is aimed at attracting subscribers so very low trade counts and low draw down is the aim.   New names for these coming soon.

FXQU_A1 broker limits hit.... Again

Time to adjust the approach with the accounts.  I have hit the trade limits again.

I will changing things up this weekend... New approach... More later

FXQU_A1 update... Smaller timeframes

V1.80 was deployed last night to now give the option to stop new trades opening if the same direction and timeframe was already opened. Also some cosmetic changes such balance, equity etc is displayed.

Tough going at the moment with single direction of the usd pairs.. I have switched my second live account Ruby to very small time frames however the already opened large time frames will need to eventually close out.

FXQU_A1 A2

OK so I plan to switch the second live account (Ruby) over to the A2 model which looks at very small timeframes... This way I will have two accounts covering small and large timeframes.

No new versions deployed..

FXQU_A1 re-factoring

Latest version is v1.78  ...  I had to refactor the engine to cater for broker limits (max trade numbers).  This meant some prolonged testing periods across all the robots - it also meant that a minor bug crept into the deployed code.  This is now fixed however I am monitoring the internally generated messages created during the robot execution window.

FXQU_A2 update

Since mid December the robots have been pushed... Constantly trying to manoeuvre through positions to get the best outcome in a one directional market.

I have changed the FXQU_A2 account to very small time frames as of this morning.

Latest version is v1. 77

I had to recode some data blocks that reduce the level of broker server messaging following a warning from IC markets.... Apparently 2000 hits per day is a lot... Unfortunately that's not a lot for FXQU_A1!

FXQU_A1 update.. Dynamic throttling change

New minor version released v1. 74... This was to all robots.  Key change was a slight mod to the dynamic throttling algorithm.

The robots are currently attempting to recover from the long usd downward run and are positioning up appropriately.

FXQU_A1 update.. Limits hit

With the strong directional decline of the usd pairs I noticed some trades were not completing. Further investigation showed the robots were hitting the Max allowed number of trades per account (in line with broker guidelines) . I have changed the code accordingly and have deployed the latest version 1.72 across the robots. 

Overall the next week or two the new version will be fully flushed through the trades. 

FXQU_A1 2018 .. 1st update

Happy New Year .. the last week of December 2017 saw a general dumping of USD and this has meant a build up of trades for most USD pairs.   

A minor new version was deployed to all Robots (v1.58) - it includes an updated, stricter, dynamic throttling algorithm.

Also looking at including the first crypto-currency pair : BTC/USD. but will check it over first.

Thats all for now .. 2018 here we go.
