Here you have the results of 4 backward test for the USDJPY Mode 1.
Period 2006.5.1 2006.11.10
MM=false (see reports for the rest of the settings)
Test A Mode 1 Without other settings
Test B Mode 1 BreakEvenAfterPips=32
Test C Mode 1 CloseAfterHours=120
Test D Mode 1 Combination of test B and test C
So it makes sense to use the setting BreakEvenAfterPips to improve your results. Net Profit will increase but what's more important MD will decrease.
