Q1 – broker
tastyfx.com (US branched IG.com)
It is legit for US customers.
However, I don’t know whether US customers can use non-US regulated brokers, as those have usually bigger leverages and smaller spreads. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Q2 – demo with the same amount as real will be
yes
Q3 – download EAs
Yes.
However, maybe it would be good to have both EAs and Strategies (pdf / ppt) time stamped, so we know which one is newer in case of discrepancies.
Also, GBPUSD and USDJPY EAs have two entries for SL/TP, where only one is initialized. I did initialize the other one also, but not sure if I should.
Maybe it would be also beneficial to provide setting files.
Lastly, so far in the course, there was no mention about how to size “Entry Lots” based on account sizes. Maybe instead of just asking for a number, this field should ask for a multiplicator for every $1,000 in the account. This way, default value would be working for every account.
Q4 – smiley face
Yes
Q5 – EAs started trading
Yes, I have two EURUSD trades already closed. The first is for $1.31, the second for $-0.5. I created $10k demo account, and modified LotSize to 0.01. Maybe I need to bump it up to 0.1. I also have a third trade open also EURGBP, but this is down right now at $-15.5.
Would be nice, if you provide some examples for all pairs for one account, so we could adjust it accordingly.
I am super excited to see how it will work! So far, everything is really smooth.
EDIT:
I have submitted it twice not knowingly as I didn’t see page moving for some time after the first click, and the button was still blue (ready to be submitted).
