Looking foward to your results!
.. i have 3 accounts open all with different db's. i have a newer system with plenty of fresh hardware that allows me to open all 3 platforms and run them all at the same time. i just switch back and forth between the windows to check and see what is going on at any one time.
and to answer your first question - well i guess i am testing to see what the Ea's will do all the time..news events included. if i find that having them open during news time is going to provide me with consistant losses i will shut them down before news events, but that seams to me like a pain. i would also have to close all open positions as well taking the profit or loss at that time, but with the newer stop losses i have put in the most i would lose would be 10 pips.
we'll see.. that's why i am testing
