Crazy Fox always opens a buy and a sell order almost at the same time. If the market moves in any direction, the plus position is closed and another 2 positions (a buy and a sell) are opened - thus, the balance is built up and the minus positions remain - this is repeated until the market turns and the group the minus positions in plus closes. At a certain level, the hedging position is waived due to the security, and only more counter positions are opened - this prevents us from overshooting the whole thing. In addition, the EA is trying when it gets dice with a complicated mathematical mechanism to gradually degrade the DD. In addition, there is the fact that we have a news filter installed, a few hours before and after news (low, medium, high - each other distances) makes Crazy Fox in the news currency pair no new trades.
This is actually an ultragenial system BUT still a martingale system and we stick to our personal opinion: Every martingale system will crash sooner or later (but this one has a performance that you would not otherwise with any other system), - because at some point the market movement comes through News, Trump, etc. which one can not foresee. That's why we've built a hard stop at minus 35 percent on Crazy Fox - so we will not destroy the account in extreme situations. For an EA that averages about 5-10% a month, in our opinion, a 35% "crash" is bearable that did not happen in the backtest until 2015! Does anyone want to halve the risk in this case, just deposit twice as much and put risk at 0.5 ...
And another important note: Crazy Fox works inconspicuously and solidly with low DD for a seemingly eternal period, but eventually the day will come where more DD will be; So this EA may not be overruled! If you want to start with less money you simply use a "cent" account at FBS (this works with this strategy from 60 Euro) - then of course does not pay off the ratio possible return / subscription costs, we recommend the start at least with a 1,200 Euro Centaccount !).
