Hello,

thank you for your statement. I also would like to test the EA on an other broker, which timeframe to use (can`t find it at elactus )?

hello,
i use it for real on a mini-account with InterBank (for 1 month), and i win $$ with it, on GBPUSD,EURUSD,USDCHF, USDCAD, all on H4 timeframe

sometime, it's difficult because when you are losing on a position, the EA increase the position (x2) => so you have to begin with a very small position

Hello seb,

thank you and could post your statement(if you want) or tell us something about profitfactor, biggest drawdown the profit(for example:with a 300 Dollar mini-account I make 300 pips per Month ,, starting with 0.1 lot and so on..)you did make?

hello haubentaucher,
on a 800$ mini-account open on the beginning on this month, and starting with 0.1 lot
i win 200$ on eurusd with 50 drawdown
300 $ on gbpusd with 80 drawdown
i start 2 week ago with usdchf and usdcad : i loss 20$ on usdchf, and 70$ on usdcad

but be careful, it's a dangerous EA, you need to have money to win or start with a very little position (because of pyramiding)

Thank you, very interesting!

Than we will wait what yeoeleven will tell to us about the timeframe he is testing the EA

Thank you for your comments on this EA.
I am using M30 TF.
I agree that it can be dangerous with it's progression from .1 unit to .2 after a loss of 15 pips. The longest recovery I saw in the period tested was after a .8 unit trade. I have not experienced what the progression will be but if it doubles again and again it could be a real problem given a long reversal. I was pleased to see that all the open positions for the pair were closed when the .8 trade was successfull.
After 2.5 hours since my last detailed report I have now 3 pairs in the 2 unit category with a total of +$35 in Account History with no further closed trades. I am trying to decide whether to turn off the EA over the forthcoming News Announcements.
Comments on that in the next hour would be helpful.
Thanks,
John
