RE: RE:

I dont understand why you dont use 1:500 leverage ¡? Its usefull in most cTrader Brokers. You'll obtain best results on your max DD.

Hello, 

I thing the profit is very nice, but not all.

Your DrawDown is almost 90%!!! It is huge... Why are you earn money if then you lose it all? My opinion is that 10-20% of DrawDown is the maximum which guarantees the continuous earning, and well-balanced trading. It is only my point of view, but be careful with 90% DD.

 

Hi there, thank you for your comment.

 

Yes I know about the DrawDown, but if you increase your starting belance you also reduce your risk (with the same volume of 10000).

 

Here you can see same test with 25,000 and 50,000 of starting balance:

Your DrawDown risk is reduced, but your % profit is also reduced (for the same volume).

 

For 25,000 the Max DrawDown is 45.34% and % profit is around 1000%. For 50,000 Max DrawDown is 37.50% and % profit is around 500%.

 

Even so for an investment of 3K I think is worth the risk with a Max DrawDown of 88% with a potential of 7300% profit.

 

What do you think?

Dear Trader,

Could you please perform a clean installation of cTrader?

Below you will find the instructions on how to perform a clean installation of cTrader. To prevent any errors the steps should be performed in the exact order they were written.Could you please ask the client to perform the following steps:

1. Close any running instance of cTrader or cAlgo.

2. Restart the computer.

3. Hold down the Windows key and press R, this will open the Run dialog box. Enter appwiz.cpl to open the Programs and Features component of Windows.

4. Uninstall cTrader (also cAlgo if installed), the close Programs and Features.

5. Hold down the Windows key and press R to re-open the Run dialog box, and enter %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Apps and press OK.

6. Delete the 2.0 folder, and close Windows Explorer.

7. Hold down the Windows key and press R to re-open the Run dialog box, and enter %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming and press OK.

8. Delete the following folders; cTrader, %BROKERNAME% cAlgo, %BROKERNAME% cTrader, %BROKERNAME%-cTraderCommon, then close Windows Explorer.

9. On the Start Menu click on Documents, and rename the cAlgo and cTrader folders.

10. Restart the computer.

11. Download and install cTrader.

Spotware director. I also have problems and can not open cAlgo cTrader or with any of the brokers with whom I work or with Sporware.

I have long been working with the cTrader platform and has always worked well. I do not understand you have done with the update. Windows now warns that it is an unwanted or dangerous sortware. And the error but go ahead and allow the installation of the update is listed and can not be installed. I also followed one by one all the steps that you have put in the post, but I feel the same as the user rkokerti, is useless. I do not understand how a company like Spotware can afford these failures. I took two days without access to my accounts FxPro, IC Markets and Peperstone and Sporware. Somebody please fix this mess. I attached the reports the error.
