Hello Edge Traders!

CONGRATULATIONS to all of you who made some INCREDIBLE gains today! ????????

If you missed some gains today and are wondering why, here's a couple of tips to keep in mind : 

1. Make sure you're checking the tracking account regularly, especially if anything seems "off". 

The reason we have a tracking account is a) to make sure that the software is running as expected according to the backtests and b) so that users can always check to make sure that their accounts are working properly. To check, scroll down and locate the "Trading Activity" section. Then click on "Open Trades" and sort by the "Open Date". Then, open your MT4 terminal on your VPS and sort your open trades by "Time" and compare accordingly. The goal is to have your trades as similar to these as possible. 

If you are missing trades, you may not be connected to our server. This doesn't happen often, but if it does all you need to do is reload G27 back on the chart and reconfigure your settings. Then, check your experts tab and if it says "BOT is successfully INIT" then you're connected!

Remember ultimately as a software user it is your responsibility to make sure that your software is setup properly and working and that you are running the latest version of the software. We will continue to monitor and help by making announcements if there are any widespread issues, however the tracking account is there so that you can always be sure if your software is working properly or not. 

2. Check your max spread setting

The most common reason for missing trades is due to the fact that at the time of the trade, the spread was higher than your Maximum Allowed Spread for Trades setting and therefore the trade was skipped. You can see if this was the case by checking the experts tab. You might see something like "GBPCHF spread = 115 >= 50". 

Ultimately what you set for your max allowed spread setting is up to you. The default setting is 50. We will be releasing an update this week that will allow users to be able to set a unique spread for gold trades (or any other pair they choose). In the meantime, we are raising our max allowed spread setting to 100 so that we don't miss out on any gold signals since we know according to our backtest and forward testing, it is the most profitable pair.

In general, it may be a good habit to compare your trading account to the tracking account on a regular or even daily basis, until you begin to become familiar with G27. Then, if anything seems "off" you can double check to make sure everything is working properly on your account. 

If you missed some trades this week or today, don't be discouraged! This is part of the trading process. This week will be insignificant in the long term, so we just learn, adapt and move forward. There will be plenty more opportunities to come! ????

And also just FYI, we have some exciting new updates coming this week! : 

1. The Titan X Tool - A more aggressive DCA software tool that is designed for consistent, short term profits, especially in ranging markets. 

2. G27 update with new max spread setting - This will allow users to be able to set a unique spread for gold trades (or any other pair they choose). 

3. Sentiment Indicator - This will allow users to load the sentiment analysis on their charts so they can more easily use this data in real time as part of any manual trading strategy to trade with the smart money! (This may be two weeks out, but hopefully sooner!)

That's all for now! Have a great rest of the week! ????

And as always, if you have any questions or need any help, please reach out to us anytime 24/7 in the live chat at www.blueedgefinancial.com.
