I don't touch it but its interesting to see my results vs. LIVE trader view (most that don't believe that thriving EA's could be written) - I also backtest on 15min since nearly all of my transactions average about one hour or not. They bunch on the chart if I use 30min or more for chart views.

    Wow! ...
    fantastic results! I don't mean to be bleak but my EA was also profitable in December, but if I looked back farther (annually ) it was just another story. Markets can change dramatically from year to year and that I think the true test of an EA is whether or not it could be profitable when these changes take place. Btw Fulltime if you would like another tester for your EA I would happily help...

    Run your own EA and then see if its profitable. Nov was choppy and Dec was trendy (simpler to profit) - if you profit in both it should work for some time. Every 2-3 weeks, I re-optimize.

    I wouldn't be too quick to presume this...

    Nah I don't assume - its just that those are 2 good months for testing. My EA is smoking on Collective2 based in my preferences. Up 53 percent with 8.8% Drawdown for December and out of 8,000 EA's - Ranks in the top and right now if has some of their best stats on the computer system. I re-optimize constantly for best outcomes.

    Using 15m pubs it shouldn't be a problem backtesting for a couple years but you will want to Walk-Forward because you're re-optimizing every few months or so...

    Hi Fulltime 24/7

    I've been following an EA based on the supertrend system. Would it be possible to find your EA robot?

    Regards
