Hi Andrea,

Just a quick note to say how GREAT it was to get your help to download your EA. I could not get aurthentication,BUT with your QUICK response {email] with your quick fix I was able to get it up and running. THANKS.
I have found with other EAs that the biggest complaint is ” NO REPLY “for help and it is GREAT to get your HELP.
If the EA works like your service it will be GREAT.
Peter.

Have to tell you what when I hit the button to buy we had a 4.6 earthquake aftershock (Quake Crowe NZ for info). Now after 4th Sept when we had 7.1 and over 1000 aftershocks, a 70th birthday, new knee, deperation sets in when it goes to hell in a handbacket, so thanks to the team for what might be a ray of sunshine badly needed in Christchurch, then I heard Marks accent thanks Mark gave me confidence as I know we dinnie have any Scottish scammers. From a wee Tranent Belter.

Dear I grew as a broker trades activ okay as a platform has the cross on MetaTrader4: GBP / JPY 6pips of spreads, while on the cross GBP / USD 3 pips tell me if I buy the robot with these spreas or not, expect a Answer please.

Hi

Just bought it, and it look promissing. Is there a way I can change the Comment? I like to hide it from my broker. I think they can see the comment
Thanks

Andrea

Page 8 of the User Guide shows a ‘Best Trade’ of $450.3 on May 10th

I am puzzled how this is achieved when the target is $4 per $1000 capital and there are only up to four trades per day

What am I missing

Regards

Jim Purdy

Hi Andrea,

First, let me say Thank You for your hard and great work – Crescento is working “smoothly”- (“placed” with three different brokers from different parts of the world with three different demo accounts); to be exact:
$1000/00.1 = $77.99 ( Russia)- since 2010.09.30
$1000/00.2 = $127.22 ( England) since 2010.10.04
$5000/ 0.1 = $403.40 ( USA) since 2010.10.06
Its biggest “power” is consistency; ability to make “small but sure steps” (40 pips).

Andreas, we all know that in order to make a money in trading we need three basic “components”:
working system (Crescendo)
patience (up to us)
discipline (Up to us)
I think, with Crescendo and as above, we are very close to succeed on this field. There is only one thing, I believe, that is still missing but extremaly important – Automatic Compounding. Small “gains” + automatic compounding = final success. Every successful trader uses this simple “formula” (compound account) because it works in long run changing accounts big way.

So, the question I want to ask you is: Can we expect automatic compounding soon?

Another question: If I want to keep my current record of tradings what I have to do in order to apply a new version of Crescendo?

And the last question: Cruscotto is “freezing” my Meta 4 platforms! – how to fix it?

Big thank you for all you have done so far.

Regards,

Milosz

ciao Andrea,
Crescendo è già nato come un gran bel prodotto (a parte qualche inevitabile imperfezione iniziale che hai già corretto nella seconda versione). Il suo punto di forza è la continuità del guadagno con un basso profilo di rischio. Non vorrei che tutte le nuove implementazioni a cui stai lavorando lo trasformassero in qualcosa di diverso; ti prego di non perdere di vista quello che deve essere un punto fermo.
Quando leggo di martingala, di boosting del guadagno ecc. mi preoccupo.
Ho comprato Crescendo per un motivo ben preciso: volevo un sistema di trading sicuro, che mi desse guadagni costanti nel tempo e poco rischio; e chiunque ha acquistato Crescendo con la consapevolezza di chi sa cosa sta comprando, è stato mosso dalla mia stessa motivazione.
Non dimenticare mai, neanche per un attimo, l’idea di base che ti ha portato a progettare Crescendo, perchè questa idea è anche il gruppo dei tuoi clienti (quelli veri e non quelli che lo sono diventati per caso), che hanno messo nelle tue mani la loro fiducia e che per un professionista quale sei, deve essere il tuo bene più prezioso.
Quindi ben vengano nuove modifiche e miglioramenti ma a patto che abbiano sempre lo stesso obiettivo di partenza: la migliore gestione del rischio.
P.S. ti avevo fatto una domanda in una mail a cui desidero una risposta perchè mi serve per capire meglio il robot. Te la riporto:
“Credo che l’EA sia andato in “temporanea crisi” a causa del picco di volatilità del 15/9 che ha provocato un repentino rimbalzo dai minimi con un’escursione dei prezzi veramente importante. Ciò legittimava una lettura in termini di una conferma di inversione di trend, che fra l’altro era già nell’aria da tempo e l’EA si è comportato di conseguenza; ciò che è avvenuto dopo ancora deve trovare le conferme del caso: i minimi di periodo per il momento stanno tenendo quindi è presto per dire se si è trattato di un falso segnale o meno.
In ogni caso l’EA sta tenendo e questo è molto importante.
La domandda è: situazioni come questa (fra l’altro piuttosto rare) possono essere il tallone d’achille di Crescendo (un punto debole ce l’ha anche lui, è inevitabile)? e possono essere validamente gestite intervenendo per inibirgli di aprire nuove posizioni fino a quando la situazione si è stabilizzata in una direzione o nell’altra? o sto dicendo una fesseria?
Ciao e buon lavoro

Hi Andrea

Love your EA. Working beautifully on a live Fxdd account. Almost 2 weeks and at 5.75% gain.

I have the same problem as Milosz, the cruscotto keeps freezing my MT4 platform. Was there a fix for this?

Remeber to enjoy life and not work, work, work only.

Hello Andrea,
I just want to comment that your EA is making me some serious trades that are profitable on FXDD acccount. I have 3 FXDD account and they are all profibale with your default settings. Please keep up the good work and thanks a million for creating such a powerful and profitable EA with the lowest risk in the market.

CATASTROPHE
We have been told that a catastrophic loss is highly unlikely to happen and is there for a most unusual set of circumstances…AND….this is also one of the reasons given for not carrying individual stop losses on a per trade basis. We know that the Maximum DrawDown is limited to 30% of capital and it is reported that the previous highest actual exposure witnessed did not exceed 20% of capital.
WELL
Let me now advise that the above just ain’t so ( in our real world) – I have just lived thru a CATASTROPHE which quite quickly robbed me of 30% of my capital – in this instance some $252.89 in a matter of a few days. My settings are absolutely standard or default – so, nothing strange in that area.
The real problem hinges on Crescendo lack of ability to remotely select the best entry point and then once that is wrong it follows this up by constantly digging a deeper and deeper hole by continuing to take more and more positions ALL in the THE WRONG DIRECTION.
In my case the standard default took a clearly wrong direction SELL trade on GBPUSD on 28 October 2010 and then followed this with 5 further SELL trades…..everyone clearly going deeper into the yawning bottomless pit.
At the same time GBPJPY set out to do exactly the same sort of hole digging exercise by absorbing 4 positions ALSO going in the absolute wrong direction.
FINALLY, on 4 November….just 7 days later, the whole mess ran a loss right thru the Castrophe level and BINGO, I now face months of slowly trying to get back to even the old starting level. Try thinking how many days of $4 profits it takes to achieve $250….and you are in the ballpark.

Am I disappointed……YES
Am I giving up………NO
All I ask and hope for is that Andrea might, at long last, deliver a better method of trade selection than the one we have lived with from inception….AND, hopefully, keep us away from the sort of hole I just went into….. head first.

I accept and understand that Crescendo is a work in progress, but disappointing I had to be one of the ones who fell into the hole before Ver.1.3 could save us from this sort of disaster.

Your never give up trader Ric Richardson

Catastrophe
I am running one live account and 3 demo accounts with crescendo. And I am impressed. And the support is great too.
Like Rics, one of my demos went down about 25% but has since recovered to a DD of about 8% and made profit while doing so. It does seem strange taking further trades in the same direction as the losing one, but on the whole it seems to work most of the time. I used to do it manually some times and there are occasions when it does make sense – the effect can be to bring a losing trade back into an acceptable level of loss, or better still, to a profit as the market turns around again.
But I do like the looks of v 1.3 and can’t wait to install it.
I came close to giving up on FX, but crescendo has kept me in the game.

Hi Andrea,

I truly believe you have a great EA for us. I’ve been thinking about a reduce risk strategy on your EA. I want to start off with a $10,000.00 account using your EA. You suggested a $10,000.00 account with 1 GBPUSD chart should set to initial_balance 10000, lot_size 0.10 and target_profit 40. I think that is a lot of risk for 1 chart if the trades start to goes against me. Do you think I can use 10 GBPUSD charts with the setting on initial_balance 1000, lot_size 0.01 and target_profit 4 on each chart. Also set each chart with a different magic_number and a different server_time_shift so each chart trades will a unique. For having a unique trade for each chart, I can have 4 out of 10 charts goes against me instead of having 1 big chart goes against me. My account also allows hedging so if one of the chart started off long and the other chart started off short that will also reduce my margin as well. I have a question that you may know the answer if I can use ten charts instead of one on a $10,000.00 account. The question is if I can use multiple charts to reduce my risk, should I set the initial_balance 10000, if the max_total_DD close out all positions on the account or set the initial_balance 1000, if the max_total_DD close out all positions on that chart ONLY and NOT close the positions on the other charts??? Please let me know what you think

Many Thanks!!!

Richard
