I don't have the Thunder_4WD EA, but I've tested scalpers similar to "Lucky" and they have the same type of performance. They do great as far back as I tested (1999), but not nearly as good or consistent starting in 2007.
They still perform well enough for me to consider trading them, though.

But then in the years 2007 and 2008 performance was not so good as in the years before. There were only 1200 - 1800 trades each year and more loss-trades than in the years before. Is there any reason for this behaviour ?
(Don't understand me wrong: the performance is also very fine but in comparison with the years before ....)
best regards
