FXQU_A1 smallest timeframes

Well it's looking like the smallest timeframes, 10 mins and less, are the threshold for retail high frequency trading for FXQU_A1.  Possibly going to change the time frames for graphite as this account uses these very small timeframes.

FXQU_A1 update.. Lowered risk

What a night.. FXQU_A1 Sapphire and Topaz took a hit due to their high frequency scaling algorithm.  I have amended this to bring it down and in line with the graphite and quartz accounts.

Given the volatility over the last few hours the two accounts FXQU_A1 Quartz and FXQU_A1 Graphite handled the movements really well.  Drawdown is still in hand.

FXQU_A1 v1.89

All robots are now switched across to v small time frames and they had their first real test yesterday... Jpy pairs moved over 150 pips and most of the robots hit stop losses and dropped 1% to 2%... Draw down was less than 10% which is great.

V1.89 was deployed as it contained a minor change to the entry trigger.

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 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_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.

FXQU_A1 IC Markets

Firing up a live ic markets ECN pro account to have a clean restart of trading history.  FXQU_A1 Sapphire will continue but it contains some early trading history during debugging prior to August 1st.  A stable version of FXQU_A1 was operating across all accounts following August 1st 2017.

The new account will be called FXQU_A1 Ruby

FXQU_A1 update... Nothing really

FXQU_A1_MME has completed over 89,000 trades now... Minor release applied over the past week but it was for cosmetic changes that will help in the deployment of new releases across each account.

Apart from that no other news...
