If you ever need anything please don’t hesitate to ask someone else first @Nirvana
I’m a full-time individual trader. I have programming skills and a bachelor’s degree in economics. I started my trading journey in 2006 and spent over ten years developing my algorithmic approach to researching markets and building various trading models and strategies for stocks, futures, options, and currencies. I pay particular attention to risk control and diversification.
My style is portfolio trading. I use more than ten diverse strategies (breakout, momentum, mean-reversion) combined into a portfolio. The strategies are based on three basic models and diversified using various parameters and financial instruments. Such a style allows creating portfolios with specific expected values of maximum drawdown, diversification level, profit/risk, volatility of the equity curve.
Portfolio trading has advantages over trading with only one strategy. Such trading has a lower drawdown; smaller leverage is used. A portfolio is better adapted for trading in different market regimes and has lower volatility.

99% of traders lose money in the long run, so just do not trade if you want to be more successful than most

I have stopped the 'NY Close Trading Strategy' for a month. It seems that the current market is not suitable for this strategy because of high spreads and large price movements around the rollover time. I will probably wait until the spreads come down.

I've removed XAUUSD (gold) from all my accounts. Since the day I added it (more than a year ago), it has been bringing me losses and nothing else. So I'm going to pause it for a while.

I highly recommend updating the Belkaglazer EA to the latest version asap.
The 'https://time.is' website has changed the page layout. It is used as a primary URL for determining the GMT offset.
The old version of the EA will use a backup URL: https://www.worldtimeserver.com

I just released the MT5 version of Belkaglazer. I think MT5 is the future and it's time to move to MT5. I will no longer open MT4 accounts.
1. Belkaglazer MT5 is fully compatible with set files created for MT4.
2. MT5 version does not currently support netting mode. I am working on a virtual position manager for MT5 so that the netting mode will be available soon.

Dear traders
1. I've just published a long-awaited new version (1.859) of the EA.
2. The EA is fully compatible with previous and old versions.
3. What's new and How to update the EA: https://belkaglazer.com/en/belkaglazer-en/whats-new-en
4. The new version contains a news filter and allows you to add different dangerous MM methods to any strategy. I am against using such methods in trading, so my accounts, signals, and set-files will never use them. But I do not want to limit other traders, at least these settings can be used for educational purposes.
See News Filter and Dangerous MM options (at the bottom of the page): https://belkaglazer.com/en/belkaglazer-en/settings-en
5. The new version provides additional options that can be configured via file belkaglazer.ini: https://belkaglazer.com/en/extra-settings-en
6. Сonfigurations of my signals and set-files remain unchanged; they do not use the new features. I plan to update them until the summer of 2019. Therefore, if you use my set-files and do not want to use the new features, then you can wait until the summer, and not update the EA right now.
Best Regards

To be safe, I've stopped trading GBP until the end of the week due to Brexit vote (except for demo accounts). This is a very rare event that cannot be tested and will randomly affect the markets. So I've turned off the set-files with GBP pair.

2018 ends. It is a terrible, very terrible year for the breakout and momentum systems. Many familiar traders close this year with a loss for the first time in 5-10 years. It's a perfect market for martingale, grid, averaging, and manual traders who trade reversals. Good market for scalping. Will 2019 be the same or maybe better / worse? - I don't know; I do not see the future. In such a market, the primary goal is to lose as little as possible.
My plans? I love markets; algorithmic trading is food for my brain. I will continue to develop Belka. I will continue to invest my knowledge and experience in this project.
The new version will contain a news filter. We will be able to backtest the impact of any news event and select various news data providers.
New advanced settings and features will be added to the INI file. It will be possible to optimize strategies using the Sharpe ratio, Belka will be able to export different data to CSV, automatically build an equity curve, a drawdown chart and other important metrics that cannot be displayed in MT4.
The MT5 version is under development. My task is to develop a good EA with full support for the netting mode and all types of orders. Such an expert can be used on real stock/futures exchanges. My main task is diversification in different markets.
Today (21.12.2018) I will stop trading until Monday, January 11, 2019. I will close all open orders/positions at 22:00 (GMT+2). The end and first week of the year is a dangerous time to trade. It is my personal decision; it does not mean that you should do the same. I want to spend this time with my family. Anyway, two weeks a year will not be able to change something. The market will not run away from us.
Using this pause, I will review all my portfolios (taking into account the trading results of 2018). I will think a lot and make the necessary changes.
Thanks to everyone who shared ideas with me, sent set-files and helped me improve this project. I hate marketing and stuff like that. I am not interested in selling this product to anyone who does not need it. I focus on traders with experience and knowledge. The results of 2018 tell me that I need to reduce the price to $500. I think this is a good price for joining the project.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Today I will switch off the NY Close trading strategy on some of my accounts due to the Fed Interest Rate Decision.
