    1.
    Accurate

    so how you cope with this?
    2.
    I made some paper earners and they broke at demonion level.

    #8203;#8203;just how u select one of those optimized par?
    how u use optimizer?
    #8203;one parameter at a time or two?

    #8203;

    #8203;3#8203;.
    #8203;it did earn for some time and then one week drawdown occured.
    A#8203;t brexit see it moved zero.
    #8203;final week it was a loss.
    #8203;
    so far as I understand marked conditions changed and
    it have to change parameters.

    All relies on simple balance algorithm from egies revealed page.plus Ts sl function as stop orders based on
    #8203;based on volatility indied.
    I been testing it on dukascopy data and it earns a lot.

    #8203;
    #8203;#8203;then again when utilizing mt4
    imported background it requires losses and merely
    retains breakeven on yearly scale.

    #8203;
    #8203;#8203;today I will switch it on demonion and observe.
    #8203;and maximize against final week and a bit optimize
    and also put it on demonion.

    what u suggest?

    If you are going to optimize then make sure you are doing it on many pairs for a minimum of two years each, you might curve fit it otherwice, and that's bad.

    Actually?
    You do optimization and check par on at least two pairs?
    One set of par for two sets of data?
    interesting.
    Pari EURUSD with . . USDJPY or what?

    The egy in MT4 is utter crap. (it's a marketing tool utilized to drive the customer to put real money behind the platform ...)
    Only a forward evaluation may be of some worth, but that is still demo.
    You'll be able to get some idea if your idea is valid by means of a backtest, but only way to make sure is do run the machine live, instantly and with real money.

    I see much pain in ur words. Keep doing and u'll collect needed experience, it's about exp.
    1. I know how it's shout be in the actual world. Just check tester bot movenment in visual mode.
    2. I saw many fx bots coded by tester, some developers do not compute commissions or do not know how brokers servers execute orders, requotes, slippage, time sessions issues and many things.
    3. Optimizer un shouldd use only for short periods were ur bot is failing with cash management or risk management issues or wrong entries seen. Amount of par u can choosing from maximum processors power of ur servers. Ducascopy quotes history do not cure the tester bugs partner.
    Before putting ea in full automated mode u should require manual tests. Than demo forward testing with couple of accs with various settings/timeframes.

    I think you want to understand the rationale behind your EA first and adjust so, but I normally shut off my EA whenever there's NFP, FOMC, central bank interest rate's conclusion. .

    #8203;the principal problem
    using ea I said above posts
    #8203;was It had been exploiting mt4 1minute to tick fractal interpolation.
    I had two examples of this ea

    #8203;
    one on usdjpy 4h timeframe without tracking stop
    but with break even
    #8203;
    #8203;Secondly on eurusd 1h with monitoring stop around 0.5 implied volatility


    #8203;while eurusd nevertheless is suffering losses on demo
    #8203;usdjpy #8203;#8203;is still performing.well because pair is trending maybe.still reside trading


    #8203;firstly wanna Thank you for words of advidce nevertheless to be utilized.

    #8203;secondly
    #8203;I using tick dukascopy data obtained by tickstory lite.
    #8203;anf optimizing for usjpy and eurusd on 15 60,and 240 minutes

    #8203;#8203;albo I did modified ea to prevent trailingstop
    when split even is not struck yet.

    #8203;

    You need to know what this EA really does and based on the understanding you ought to know when this EA is much more likely to succeed when not. You need to turn it off when market conditions aren't what this EA was created for.

  9. #19
    As a number of people have stated, switch off the EA when the market changes in a way that will make the EA's actions unprofitable for you.

    The very best time to shut off the EA is if all of the money is gone.
