This series has been written with the aim of posting every day since last year.
Probably we have continued for almost a year now!
If you read what I have written so far,

And since I would like to take a short break,
I will continue posting with the help of ChatGPT.
From time to time, I will post irregularly, as before.
FX automated trading, EA developer Reiwa's Double-I.
Today, I will talk about ideas to prevent liquidation or expulsion.
In FX trading, the risk of a margin call or loss due to drawdown is inherent.
However, there are ideas to prevent it using methods specific to automated trading.
Conclusion: Turn on Compounding Operation Mode
In short, the conclusion is that keeping the **compounding operation mode ON** is one way to reduce risk.
Mechanism of Compounding
Compounding operation automatically adjusts the lot size according to the growth or decline of funds.
If funds increase: the lot size automatically increases, making profits easier to grow.
If funds decrease: the lot size automatically decreases, softening losses.
This is the key of compounding. When funds decrease, the lot size decreases as well,
which reduces the risk of large losses expanding.
Compounding vs. Simple Interest
In simple interest operation, the configured lot size remains fixed. Even with ongoing drawdowns, you keep entering with the same lot.
Because the lot size does not change as funds decrease, eventually you may face margin shortages, increasing the risk of liquidation or expulsion.
On the other hand, in compounding operation, when drawdown reduces funds, the lot size reduces accordingly.
Therefore, compared to simple interest operation, drawdown losses are restrained, reducing the risk of bankruptcy.
Risk Management of Compounding
Even with compounding, you must carefully calculate how much risk you take.
To do so, refer to the **“Risk Management Calculation Method”** and
set an appropriate lot size percentage relative to funds.
Refer to the links below and perform correct risk management calculations.
Summary
Compounding increases profits when funds rise and suppresses losses when funds fall.
Turning on compounding mode makes liquidation and expulsion risks more likely to be mitigated.
Please make good use of compounding to aim for stable EA operation.
I hope this is helpful!
That’s all for now!
