Iron,

Can you post the set files FOR THIS VERSION 4.3 for the other three pair so that we may be confident that they have not changed for this version? There are many IBFX traders here and it would be preferable to post their set files.

ES


P.S. These are the four pair that can survive with this version from what I can understand:

AUD/CAD
EUR/USD
USD/CAD
USD/JPY

How this performs is truly up to your broker, not Blessing. As we all know EAs perform differently on different brokers. Blessing enters the trade with buy/sell stops/limits....no slippage required here! Closing out the trades is where slippage becomes an issue and you can now set your tolerance for requotes/slippage. You need to make sure you properly set the broker decimal function appropriately!

As promised, I'm attaching a new set file for the EURUSD that made it through the problems of last week. All I did was reduce the multiplier from 1.4 down to 1.38 and squished the autogrid down to 90% (.9). The backtest results are also attached. The drawdown may look high but that's due to equity protection helping out in two separate occasions while allowing continued trading. Protections work and you can see the results.

Happy Trading
