I don't understand the problem. Look at my backtesting results (every tick, 90%, since 2001 till now, D1 timeframe). I used default settings but just changed the lot size only.

And I modified this EA a little to have 3 kinds of MM.

So find the backtesting results (every tick, 90%, since 2001 till now, D1 timeframe). Default settings of EA and some different MM settings (difeent kinds of MM).

Now I am trying to optimize the settings for this EA to work on H4 timefame (to get more trades).

May be you do not have data enough for backtesting ...

Use this EA attached.

I am optimizing the settings of this EA for H4 timeframe and seems it is profitable for H4. Will post the results after 2 hours (it is the time for optimization).

Backtesting results for H4 timeframe (everytick, 90%, since 2001, 1 lot size, no MM, pre-set file).

Looks profitable.

I ran a few tests and it had 86-91% wins but got wipped out cause it uses no initial s/l

I guess it puts in a s/l at the trail point but not from the initial order.

Place it to presets folder. For example:

C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\presets

When you attaching EA to the chart press "Load" and downloaw the settings from pre-set file.
Pre-set file is just a settings of EA. Nothing more.
