Oh man- so much to update! It's been over a month! Sorry for being MIA.
First of all, lets update the Demo....10 more days until I add UJ to the live account. The demo has performed extremely well so far (up 37%) and can be viewed in myfxbook. Do not forget, the TE you see in Forex Factory is set to custom, so I can track the UJ trades only.+12.81% in 3 months! That's good enough for the Live! account. Now....what pair should I add next?? Note: I just noticed the demo TE isn't syncing anymore...but myfxbook is. I'll try and repair that this evening.
Now for the LIVE account.....well, not all sunshine and roses. Unfortunately during my remodeling the server went dark for some time. The account isn't blown, actually it's in profit....BUT it did suffer a drawdown of -50%...and that is completely unacceptable! Like I said, it's fully recovered but for the purposes of this account I will not allow that kind of draw down. So...how have I fixed this??

- I've added commands to the EA that will save all information in case the server goes dark.
- I've added a back-up server off-site that I can boot the EA/MT4 from in case of server failure on my side
- Modified the leverage parameters
The live account can still be seen in myfxbook (proof it isn't blown), however; due to the unacceptable draw down and the new implementations....I believe it's time for a new live version 2.0.
