Like every trend trading system, XPma EA will make good profit when market is going up or down straight, but looks bad when market doesn't seem to be with a obvious trend. But i think we can control the loss.

I change some code of this EA to keep lots=1 for testing. The original version makes much more profit than the results I give here.

The result is of 2006. This EA also makes excellent profit in 2001-2005 backtesting.

Parameters are :Lots=1; TakeProfit=1000; TrailingStop=10; StopLoss=9; Slippage=5; MaximumRisk=0.1; MA_Period=7; MA_Type=3; MA_Applied=0; T3MA_VolumeFactor=0.8; JMA_Phase=0; Step_Period=2;

Hope it helps, thank you all. Thank you again, coder's guru!
Hey Scout, nice one with the backtest results.

I tried to replicate your results on backtests, but I kept on getting the following message in my journal (see attached).

After every second there is a message, and backtesting takes forever. The final result is blank, no trades taken for the month of September 2007. Weird. I am using the indicators from the zip file in the very first post.

Thanks.

FXG.
