Money management bug in FapTurbo 20 - Page 3

FxNewbie · #21 12-10-2008, 06:32 PM

Hi E-Investor

I think you are better off turning MM off and manually type in how many lots you want the EA to trade on each trade. For example if you are trading micro lots, you would need to type in .01, .02, .03, etc for micro lots and .1, .2 for mini. Also is your simpleHeightfilter on or OFF. I am having problems with FAPT22. When the simple height filter is on it doesn't trade and it trades when it is off but that makes me nervous because that means it may be trading when the conditions are not good for trading. I did not have this problem with the old version FAT16. Let me know if you are experiencing the same type of problem.

Thanks

It seems not logical, cause yesterday with a $560 deposit (only $160 more) it traded 0.4 lots with the same settings...

Anyone have the same problem?

E:
Same problem here with version 22 it has doubled my account in 9 days...and it is still trading 1 mini

I have 500:1 at FxPro. Something is not right.

DO NOT turn off simpleheightfilter....doing so mean fapturbo trades blindly. As for leverage, I'm surprised to see you guys use such crazy leverage, but to each his own I guess.

I was told by one of the developers that MM should work fine no matter the leverage.

So how many of you are using 500:1 leverage? Anyone with 400:1 having this problem?

I upgraded with fapturbo 23.

Hope it will solve the problem.

Now upgraded. I hope so too. I am really wondering if scalper_lot sould be set to 0, so MM takes over.

Hi

I have just updated to the latest version today and i have 23 not 22. I am new to this forum but i am glad i have found it as i was questioning this bug as all my trades were using the same Lot size.

I have been using FAP since Monday and All trades were winners.

We'll see tonight if the MM is working

I installed v23, but money management still does not work :-(

Thought they said it was fixed in 22!?

The LRR prolem is not fixed with version 23. It still persists. Does anyone know whether FAPTURBO16 will continue to work post 25Dec - or is it mandatory to upgrade to new version every month?
