I tried these settings for guppy (1 and -1 trading from both sides)...worked good this am (1.5% in 2 hours)

2K IBFX DEMO

Lots: 0.1
Spread: 10
GrowthFactor: 2
ProfitTarget: 2.0
MaxLoss: 400
StopLoss: 2000
MaxTrades: 20
Slippage: 3
AutoRestart: true

The danger with this EA as I see it is if you do not escape and it compounds to higher levels..one day after days of success...you could wipe out your account. My question for cuda would be is there certain optimal times of the session (s) to start this EA and its chain reaction and then are there certain times of the session (s) to stand aside and turn autorestart off?...also, does it work best with certain pairs?

also...cuda the most important question.,...in your testing with autorestart set to "true"...how long can you last? (even if one starts with microlots the doubling eventually will find its max, resulting in a directional exposure, won't it?)
