What if ….
About 3 weeks ago I decided to take one of my demo accounts that I am running M5G cyborg and push it to the extreme by raising the risk level to something obscene (15% instead of the recommended 2%). This is what happened: a 5K account has tripled. In reality the risk of ruin is extreme for this kind of trading and I would never try this style of trading with money I am not prepared to loose, but it is always fun to see what is possible. I might let it run for a few more weeks and see if it blows up.

looks like a martingale system, here’s mine built from £400 http://benscoobert.mt4stats.com/
how long before it blows up?

what about consider change the stop loss too? I believe the stop loss is 140 pips… if you double it, what risk percent will lead it to a margin call?

Ben: You are correct M5G cyborg is a martingale system. That is why I mentioned that you can loose everything with this system.
Civ: I haven’t messed with the stops of M5G cyborg. I my case I just ran with the recommended settings #3.
