Grid lock EA
Hi @Yousef Burhama What's the suggested minimum balance for the Grid Lock EA to trade with on GBPJPY?

$1000, but you could get away with as little as 500-600.. It’s going to depend on the parameters and how you space it out. Set larger grid distances (enter less) but also smaller profits (exit more) to make less money feasible. A better option would be the Silver Bullet EA if you want to enter with less money, because it will exit some positions while setting up the grid (reducing exposure) .. but the traditional grid is ultimately safer, because you’re hedging.. so it’s not just 1 sided exposure. Assuming you have more capital, and can handle more exposure, Gridlock is good, Assuming you want to take the full risk and enter with less capital Silver Bullet is good. That’s just my opinion though! Wait for the Fibonacci EA - it’s the best of both worlds :)

@John Musonda I wouldn't go below 400, the less you have the riskier it becomes. With 0.01 lot size, and the default parameter set (Which I've done lots of backtests to come up with - I believe it's optimal) it's still pushing it. I'll see if I can design a version that lets you go with less capital
GridTeam EA on mql5 marketplace
Hi Yousef, Can you look into creating good set files for a free grid trading EA on mql5 marketplace that looks promising. The name of the EA is GridTeam EA. Thanks in advance.

Hey, sure let me look into it. I skimmed through mql yesterday and found it - but didn't get the chance to really explore until now. I'll keep you updated!

Hey @Tim O I spent some time playing with it, trying to set up a parameter set that using a currency pair to offset another, kind of like partial hedging (kindof). I couldn't really get anything that works great. GridTeam is like an Grid system with full customization of the standard indicators - but the standard indicators aren't really great for a grid system.. My thoughts: Pretty cool EA, I like the structure of it. But I don't think that standard indicators work nicely for grid based entries.
Silver Bullet EA!
CREWW - I've been thinking about ways to buy Silver and Gold with leverage without blowing up my account.. and although martingale is typically the fastest way to blow up your account.. what if concepts from it could be used to ease in some profit while in drawdown? I know, it's pretty counter-intuitive; but the SilverBulletEA does yield some interesting results. Don't be fooled - this is 'In-Sample-Data' of 2025-2026 when XAGUSD was on an uptrend throughout the year.. This is not the type of strategy where you can set-and-forget but it can be useful as a tactical entry/exit tool if you believe that precious metals are likely to continue to rise this year. Check out the new course here on skool, and check out the EA! Enjoy!

Silver Bullet EA!
Vlog #9 - UnGraded Look like this! Color Charts Coming Soon
I managed to fix the issues I was having with signals, and it's working out now! Still, I'm waiting for more data before I make a detailed video series. Either "Oh No! I lost :(" or "Yay! I won" where I talk about the challenges I faced and how I was able fix my MT5 issues, to enable signals. Also, I'll talk about the strategy it's self. Meanwhile, I'm still optimizing the colors on OBS, and here you get to see what the Un-Graded (Log Footage) looks like, along with the WaveForm chart. If you're interested in those 'non-consequencial' charts.. because there's no money on the line when it comes to rainbows 🙃 let me know, and I'll make more 'color' related videos, as I figure this stuff out. One thing I forgot to mention in this little update Vlog, is that the reason $600 is the optimal amount (or 1200, 1800, 3400.. etc) is because in a grid trading system that has variable lot sizes per grid level, it's crucial for the lot sizes to be divisible.. If the main trade account enters with a lot size of 0.5, then 0.25, while you're entering at 0.05, then you'll be forced to round to the nearest 0.01 decimal place.. Either 0.02 or 0.03, which throws everything off.. That's my main takeaway from the Telegram conversation I had with Da Silva! And here's THE GUY "Alex" who has inspired this risk.. of letting someone else handle my money for me :)

Vlog #8 , COLORS :) - Do any of you also dabble in Content Creation?
Hey Crew, I bought 2 new lights so we can try LOG footage. If this is done correctly.. I'll officially be a 'Content Creator' :D (I know I already am.. but this is different, trust me..) My attention has been locked on colors for the past week. The before I was really sick, and the week before that I've been traveling.. So, it's been a while (I know) Thanks for waiting! Here's the outcome of all that time and energy on COLORS. Still not perfect (it may never be..) but this is a rough idea of what the outcome will be. The Vlog#8 video is not 'flat' , the sample video is S-LOG 2 (compressed dynamic range, just like the historgram example), and the color graded video is the same S-LOG 2 (where the histogram is stretched out in post-production). Camera I use is the A7C. What do you guys think? Let me know, either in the DMs or in the comments :) Even if none of this techinical stuff makes any sense to you.. Am I too orange? I kind of like bing too orange..
