The R2D2 - The Automated Trading Service
So this trading was done for me, I don't touch it at all, I just monitor it by keeping a check on my margin Level % and my drawdown to ensure my account remain healthy and active. Learning more about the MT4 app and understanding the parameters of a healthy account help alot.
Automation trading has been a great way for me to get stuck into trading and learn about it as well as make good use of my capital too. I do believe that if I had started trading all on my own I would have been one of the many statistics that show people lose money in trading. Let see what June brings -as that is officially my 18 month anniversary of trading. I'm also really getting into doing my own trading too, which is very exciting. Through June I'm using the training from iX Global as well as my own research work and doing my own analysis and trades. Exciting times ahead!

The R2D2 - The Automated Trading Service April 2021 my money earned $227.09 Account % growth for this month: 6.17% Overall profit made since I started sharing my journey in August 2020: $994.86 or 26.2%. Since August this averages out to be about 3.25% per month This month I withdrew US$420 from this account and added it to my gold account. This additional capital allowed me to raise my LOT size in my gold account. These are my own results and opinions. Returns are not guaranteed and any capital is at your own risk.re to edit. With the effects of the US Stimulus packages and more money in the US economy we did see the weakening of the USD on a fundamental level. We saw the USD price start the month of April around at US$1.17 and end the month at a high of US$1.21. It was quite a consistent uptrend for the month of April. Our automation saw a number of sell trades in play which reflected the general sentiment of retail traders who also were 'net short' with their set up's too.
With the start of May again the general retail trading sentiment is 'net short' and from a technical prospective the price action shows a small price fall or a strengthening of the USD. From a technical prospective I think its looking for a new demand zone for the pair, which at this point is around $1.20 which could see the price start a new uptrend. However, we must remain reactive and if the price falls below $1.20 and doesn't confirm a $1.20 price then we will be looking for a new demand zone around $1.1950. But lets see. Though this service is all automated I do look for the chart patterns and price action myself to help me understand why trades are set and what the automation and professional traders are planning. Strategy and being reactive are keys to ensuring we trade with the trend and profit well from trades set. The R2D2 - The Automated Trading Service
These are my own results and opinions. Returns are not guaranteed and any capital is at your own risk. Going forward I'm just going to report my results monthly. So February results will be announced early March.
As this is a long term activity for me watching it weekly isn't ideally what I want to do. I prefer to see the bigger picture on a monthly timeframe. So that is what I'm going to do. The R2D2 - The Automated Trading Service
The goal of R2D2 is to achieve around 5% each month. It varies but we are middle of the month and nicely on target for this goal % growth. We do have the US presidential hand over this month and the US stimulus package going on and I'll be interested to watch the institutional reaction to this in the coming week and how this plays out with the EURUSD. This is currency pair is one that R2D2 works with the most so i'm keen to see what happens. I learn about about trading while the trading goes and that suits me very nicely. With work and family committments I just don't have the time to read charts all day. As much as I'd love to. This is a great alternative for me while I study trading and build this skill in the back ground. Thanks IX Global. These are my own results and opinions.
