Yes, we are the test group, but you have 60 days to return the product. Let´s see where the ride takes us.

I am going be a consumer here, nothing against you,

I don't care what technology it uses. This product, being so buggy and finicky has no business being used except in beta test circumstances.

OK, a software product launched into the market ought to be bug free.

Now, since Jan 1st. I have synchronized my MT4 platform perfectly to the US Gov. UTC and I have caught all the trades for both licenses within half a pip from LTP´s master account´s entry prices.

I am still using the first release. The second release has shown some bugs, but mostly due to how security is configured in Windows by the users.

I am still riding this wave and I will decide what to do when my 60 days warranty from ClickBank is close to expiration.

Hi Felix,

I am using the second version (1.10). It still crashes MT4 and still is quirky but at least I am getting trades.

My plan is the same as yours with one exception. I will also wait the 60 days unless LTP proves itself unworthy before that. I am not tracking my trades against anything. I know most return on equity claims are fabricated. I am just taking the LTP account at face value. So far, it is doing well but the lot sizes are very high (at 10%) and the loading DD on trades is also very high (can be 20% or more of the equity).

Hello Rick,

Here is a message from LTP support:

We discovered that a lot of users have Data Execution Prevention aggressively set within Windows – this causes a problem for many applications using DLLs and is best switched to monitoring Windows services only. You can, of course, keep the system enabled and just opt to tell Windows which applications to exclude but that can become annoying after a while.
The easiest way to change the setting is to go to Control Panel and select “classic” view. Now go to System, Advanced Settings, Settings, Data Execution Protection.
If your version of Windows is set to the lower option then we suggest changing it to the top one (Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only) – it will prevent almost 100% of application crashes without compromising Windows in any way though it does require a reboot to begin using the new settings.
Alternately, you can click Add and locate the copy/copies of terminal.exe to exclude from DEP.
Regarding the “orphaned trades” window… if that pops up then you can always just press F7 then click OK to restart LTP – sometimes the current trade list that gets broadcast immediately on connection arrives incomplete – it is the internet after all! – so rather than make a mistake with an order, LTP will set it aside temporarily.
It is only a temporary thing as the list of unmanaged trades will be reviewed each time LTP reconnects to one of our servers (we have the main server in Las Vegas and our fail-over server in Atlanta) and you’ll see the system switching between them when restarting, if your broker connection gets lost, if your internet drops, etc.
hope that help a little.
regards,
LTP Admin

Hi Felix,

DEP is not a factor in my case. I use the same VPS for all of my MT4 accounts and many of them have EA's which also require DLL's. I have trouble only with LTP. Even on a brand new MT4 installation. This tells me that LTP is responsible for MT4 crashing.

how many pips for the stop loss ? It seems the trader hope the market always return

LTP uses a 20 pip TP and a 330 pip SL .

It seems to wait for moments when there is a trading range to place its trades, and that 330 pips SL can mean over a month in waiting, having that pair inmobilized as no new trades are placed. It also means that once a trade is placed, it is left on its own hoping it will eventually close in profit and also, not closing that trade with a reasonable SL means that a large move that happens in the opposite direction of the trade can not be taken advantage of.

This happened recently with a USD_CHF BUY trade that went south and hit the SL . Instead of cutting its losses and placing a SELL trade to take advantage of the downward move LTP went ALL the way to the SL .

Right now it has several open trades that have been lingering there for some time. Check the USD_JPY pair.

Is there an additional investor password for the USDCHF USDJPY version like they have for the EURUDS and GBPUSD version?
