Thread: Get rich on autopilot? Live trading journal with Avonko Elite EA trend breakthrough

Hi all,

I want to take a moment to say thank you for welcoming me to the RolClub forums - while I am a veteran trader I am relatively new to the online forex community, and I look forward to sharing my experience and learning from others, while putting my money on the line every day.

I am currently putting the Avonko Elite EA from the avonko website through live testing and tinkering with the settings to fine tune the system to properly fit my needs and optimize performance on the most robust pairs. I am using the latest version available, and simply experimenting with the settings to develop a strategy that appropriately fits my needs. With my demo testing account the system proved to be extremely profitable, turning a starting balance of 10k into well over 30k over 4 months with minimal drawdown - and I am hoping to translate that success into significant profits now.

Currently I am trading the EURJPY pair and experimenting with adding the GBPUSD. My current settings allow for a sl 3x the magnitude of the tp, trading on a $5k starting balance risking no more than 3% on any one trade.

Here I will return every day to post my daily trading results and discuss which settings I am currently employing to achieve those results. I will also discuss my strategies for trading day selection, and hopefully within the context of the discussion we can perfect the usage of the system, clearly to the benefit of us all.

Again, thank you for welcoming me to your forum, and I look forward to sharing my trading results in the weeks and months to come. I welcome all suggestions, emails, and criticism, and hopefully will have some pips to share with everyone here

Best Regards
Elton

Avonko posted a winner for the first trade of the period:

+2 eurjpy 130.68
take profit 130.98

net gain $60
new balance $5060

Nice results, how much is the Avonko EA ??

Posted another win on the rally this morning in EURJPY:

+2 eurjpy 130.25
take profit 130.55

net gain: $60.60
balance: $5120.60

net profit/loss running: +120.60 (+2.4%)

Today's trade:

+2 eurjpy 131.69
take profit 131.99

for another gain of 30 pips

+$60.60 in real money balance
account balance $5181.20 (+3.624% net)


some thoughts... As my balance increases slightly I am considering increasing the lots traded from 2.0 to 2.1 so as to reflect the larger base I am now trading with. I am also considering tightening the stop/loss a bit so as to not give as much back on the inevitable losing trades, as each of these winning trades where we ride the short term trend has come without any retracement. Any thoughts?

Not much of a move this morning in the eurjpy, so no trades made yet
pending a sharp break to the downside or a spike this morning or early afternoon. Here are the trade triggers the system set forth which have yet to be hit this morning:

buy eurjpy 135.03: t/p 135.33: s/l 134.13
sell eurjpy 133.08: t/p 132.78: s/l 133.98

Have a good morning everyone,

Elton
