@MMBInvest

one of the other things i saw when trading on live account with ic markets, is that the stoploss is not really placed where you want everytime the orders are placed. So i think adding some stoploss threshold will do things like(if your stoploss is placed more that the required the bot should automatically delete the pending order and try to place a new one .if still the stoploss is greater than required the bot will try to delete and place a new order with your correct stoploss. Slippage is not really a problem cause you can adjust the bot's maximum slippage and if the maximum was hit the bot won't take a trade.. So i also know that guy who sells an hft bot for 1000usd i've studied his bot ..how far is the stoploss placed etc things like that. I've noticed that his bot's stoploss is reepected and its not breached..i once his bot's comment saying (sl violated)after an order being cancelled then it came to my mind that he might have set his hft bot some strict rules when the ic broker tries to put it where the bot does'nt want which it will automatically cancel that order.. i'm saying what i've learned i'm seeking help too i know if we do this together we won't fail..but some of us lack capital as we are able to add some few restrictions to the bot about stoploss but don't have the money to test on a live account. So this is my side of the story ..

@Papzo113

The main reason the HFT BOT is loosing on a live account is that the losses are big than anticipated which end up adding up and blowing the account ..

i suggest adding some intructions about the SL make it strong so even if the brokers try to move it a few pips a bit the bot automatically deletes that order as it will result in bigger losses , the second thing is latency we should try reducing it ..maybe by renting a virtual platform...please someone who hft reply my opinions as i stand to be corrected...
