If you are trading the GBP/JPY

If you are trading the GBP/JPY H1 with the recommended settings please note. For a more stable equity line with less draw down, simply switch the chart time from H1 (one hour) to H4 (four hour). No other action is needed to enable the new four hour configuration.

Remote Support for M8 Sidewinder on the way!

There are a hand-full of customers out there who are still having issues with the new M8 Sidewinder PRO setup. To address this, I am looking into various remote support solutions that will allow me to access your computer directly and resolve whatever issue you may be having. I will update everyone as soon as we have this set up which I hope will be by this weekend. Thank you for your patience as we roll out this new version of Sidewinder PRO.

IMPORTANT NOTE About the BalanceAllocation parameter in M8 Sidewinder PRO

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE BALANCE ALLOCATION PARAMETER

Do not set the BalanceAllocation to parameter to anything less than 10,000 per module on a standard account or less than 1,000 per module on a mini account! Other wise your EA may not trade.

The balance requirements outlined in the User Manual must still be adhered to.

Yes. You would be able to perform manual trades without affecting the system. Just be aware of equity requirements. For example. If you have a 1000 mini and you are trading Sidewinder on it, you may not want to do any additional manual trades on…
