🤖 Why Sentinel AI Waits When Others Rush In

Since we introduced Sentinel AI, we've received a lot of feedback from.

Two questions in particular keep coming up in different forms.

You asked:

1. Why does it trade GBPUSD and EURUSD when the track record shows mostly GBPUSD?

2. Why are there sometimes months with no trading activity?

Let's dive in.

The Multi-Pair Strategy Behind Sentinel AI

When we first launched Sentinel AI live several years ago, we didn't pay much attention to diversification and simply ran it on GBPUSD, since that pair was technically easier for the system.

However, the idea behind Sentinel AI is general enough to work almost equally well on both EURUSD and GBPUSD.

Earlier last year, we carried out a thorough review of the system, testing various options for different pairs.

The results showed that it performs best on EURUSD and GBPUSD, so it makes sense to run it on both.

We've started doing exactly that on the main EA's track record.

Why Sentinel AI Sometimes Goes Silent

What about those pauses in trading that sometimes happen?

We understand that this may feel unusual for many of you.

After all, an EA should be making trades, right? And if it doesn't, you might assume something's wrong.

But in reality, things are more nuanced.

Every market goes through different phases, and a good trading system should avoid unfavorable conditions.

That's why Sentinel AI uses advanced filtering mechanisms to stop trading during high-risk phases.

Does that mean the system rarely trades?

Not at all.

The last time it skipped an entire month of trading was back in 2021, almost five years ago.

It takes extremely rare circumstances for the system to remain inactive for that long.

And now that EURUSD has been added, you can expect Sentinel AI to be active most months of the year.

┃ This patience is what separates professional systems from those that trade just to stay busy.

Get Ready..

Sentinel AI launches in just 48 hours.

We'll announce the exact time in our next message.

Hey there,

I owe many of you an apology — I’ve been quiet here for a while, and some of your messages went unanswered.

Truth is, for the last year I’ve been fully immersed in research and building new Expert Advisors across different brands… and time just flew.

But I wanted to share what I’ve been working on — because I think it’s a much fairer way for both sides to access my work:

EasyAlgos AI – A new project where all of my Expert Advisors are available completely free to use. Access is broker-sponsored, so you don’t pay anything upfront.

You can learn more at: easyalgos.ai

Algocrat AI – A crypto-focused platform where you can access my crypto strategies and only pay if you make profits. No monthly fees, no upfront costs.

You can learn more at: algocrat.ai

Both projects have some requirements (minimum account size, limited capacity, etc.) — but if you’re serious about algo trading, they’re worth checking out.

This is why I haven’t been focused on selling EAs lately — because I truly believe these models are more sustainable, transparent, and fair.

And I’m excited to finally open them up to you all.

Thanks for your patience — and for still being here :)

Best,
Val

⚠️ Every once in a while, I write posts about risk management and how to use it correctly. However, my previous posts were rather short. This time, I would like to dive deeper into this topic and cover everything essential about it in relation to Waka Waka and pretty much all other grid systems

1. Money management. The first thing I always start with is money management. Simply put, it’s how big the lot size you want to open in relation to your deposit size. In Waka Waka and Golden Pickaxe, it’s regulated by the ‘Lot-sizing Method’ parameter and others related to it. In most cases, it’s enough to choose one of the predefined risk levels from low to high in this parameter, and that’s it. That’s all money management most people will need. You can see how my EAs performed with each risk level in the guides for my EAs. For example, p. 57 of the Waka Waka guide (https://www.valerytrading.com/wakawaka-pdf-guide ) shows high-quality test results of Waka Waka using 2 different quotes sources for many years

2. Risk management. To keep it short, that’s how the EA deals with drawdowns. In most cases, it’s enough to use the simplest ‘Max Floating Drawdown %’ option. For example, if you set it to 30, the EA will close all trades in case of reaching a 30% drawdown, securing the remaining 70% of the account. However, this parameter is connected with money management. If you set too tight of a drawdown limitation with a high risk level, it’ll frequently be triggered during normal work of the EA, interfering with its trading. E.g., it doesn’t make sense to choose high risk and set the maximum drawdown at 5%. That’ll make you bump into this drawdown limitation time and time again, ultimately meaning losses. I usually recommend setting this value above the maximum drawdown seen in the tester. If you can’t test the EA properly yourself, I have already compiled long-term test results in guides, as mentioned previously

3. Default parameters. People frequently ask me what settings of the EA should they use. The answer is that I use default settings and think they are the best in most cases. This sounds boring, but profitable professional trading and investments are always boring. There’s a saying about that attributed to Warren Buffet: «Beware the investment activity that produces applause; the great moves are usually greeted by yawns» (https://www.ruleoneinvesting.com/blog/how-to-invest/warren-buffett-quotes-on-investing-success/ ). If you are bored with trading and investments, it usually means you are on the right track. There are plenty of variables in my EAs that change results significantly: from core parameters of the system (how to choose an entry), to exit parameters (TP level) and grid settings (coefficients and grid spacing). What some people don’t understand is that default values are not chosen randomly. They are a result of careful market research aimed at identifying market reversal levels. Default parameters of the EA work together with the aim of exploiting existing market reversals on the pairs it trades. If you change an entry level, TP value, or grid setting, you might interfere with this logic. For example, if you make the TP value larger, the EA will exit trades later, and the reversal level might not be enough to close trades and get out of a trending movement. If you change grid coefficients to, let’s say, 1-1-1 (so that all orders have the same lot size), you will interfere with the trading logic, making it much more difficult for the EA to get out of the grid. Of course, if you are a professional trader, you know it very well and may ignore this recommendation. But if that’s the case, this whole post is just 2x2=4 for you, and you won’t find it particularly useful. If you found something new or interesting in it, chances are, default parameters are better for you

4. Make sure your money management is in line with your deposit size and account leverage. By definition, one can’t use high risks with a 1:30 account leverage. The same goes for $100 – it’s impossible to use low risks with a small deposit size. You can find historical values and deposit size recommendations at the same table in the guides of my EAs

5. Make sure your VPS works 24/5. If the EA entered a position, then your VPS went offline for a day or two and was not in the market to catch a reversal, it may bring losses to you. Make sure your VPS is stable and also put the terminal in the startup folder of your system. In this case, if your VPS is restarted (which happens every once in a while with any server), the terminal will get back online as soon as the server gets up and running

6. And the last suggestion – take it seriously and plan ahead. What you might not have understood when reading the post is that each example I have outlined above is real. There were users of my EAs who used high risks with a tight drawdown limitation at 5%, there were users who changed grid coefficients, some used the EA with a small deposit and high risk on a 1:30 leverage account, and so on. And each of these examples meant losses. Each of these rules meant someone lost real money. There is a saying in the health and safety industry that all safety regulations are written in blood. It’s true, and the same goes for the rules outlined in this post. Each of them is written with losses of traders. It’s smart to take all of them into account and trade accordingly, with strict risk and money management in place

😌 I hope this post is not too long for you to just skip it if it may be useful for you. I highly recommend reading it if you use any grid system from me or other developers

Best wishes,
Valery
