Claudia1 did well in Post 488 (https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=10214439#post10214439) with the standard PIF FIFO with 700+, mine closed much earlier with Profit Lock.
I did the standard PIF FIFO and some others including Embry1, they all ended in profit eventually.
The issue this month for me, is because of the set time to enter there may be several pairs at their upper or lower channel and even though there is a blip of positive pips where you may pick up 30+, the basket retreats relatively quickly and goes into draw-down for several hours before returning and ending with a couple of hundred profit. Unfortunately that will not always be the case so for me the only way to alleviate this is to manually reverse or deselect those pairs, which goes against the fully auto strategy or introduce another EA/s, which I am testing on other terminals, which have a range of additional a filters.
By introducing these we will be able to greatly reduce the drawdown, remain fully auto and still retain the FIFO approach.

In the process of testing how a dash like EAX can improve the outcome, downside is the developer hasn't been around for a while, that said , if the filters improve performance then this may be a positive add-on.
xm7 and PIF FIFO TO below:
also testing out lower time frames on auto with close on opposite H4 which cannot be done with xm7

{quote} This happens to me. Same broker, different pairs are suggested by the same version of FXM indicator. The only way I can explain it to myself is that the feeds for demo and live accounts are different even from the very same broker. I believe (maybe I am wrong) this is not an accident or a glitch in the system. I believe there are ulterior motives are involved.
Time frame selcted to drop the Indies ...in this case FXM indi ...still have to check if it happens with FF indi ... if this is confirmed by others here ...well guys , combinations settings will now have to take care of selected Chart TF ....
TIME FRAME 30 MINUTES
TIME FRAME 1 HOUR
