Expert Advisor which can survive for more than a year!

Final Verdict

Till date, the EA strategies were written considering the worst conditions - with a conservative approach just to sustain in the market, believing profit will be only by product, because, as I said before, if the EA is able to do trades and sustain only - I will be earning enough from rebate partners just for generating volumes for the broker and ofcourse broker and agents will be earning handsome commissions because of each trade we are performing.

In this scenario, generating profit out of the EA is truly secondary.

However, as one of our greatest advisor here suggested for optimizing the profit factor, next strategy on this EA will be optimizing the scenarios where the EA is on control and will see how much profit we can yield from the market when the EA is winning against the market!

Is this the MT4 Strategy Tester? If yes, are you using a Tickdata Suite or simply historical data? If later, I'd warmly recommend you using a Tickdata Suite. Historical data is unreliable.

It is MT5.

It is tick data only as per my knowledge.

Lot of development happend in new year, as I thought of adding profit maximizing strategies in the EA. It converted the initial EA into a totally different one!
Previously it was trading madly but now it became conservative! Will share more details and keep you all posted!

Hi Rekon67

okay thank you.
continuing the fight

Closing this thread ... I was able to script an EA during this phase which doubled my several real accounts (less than USD 500 deposit) in just 15 business days. Later I increased EA complexity on various parameters which resulted severe malfunctioning of the EA and I have to shut it down.

What I realised, the EA needs to be simple enough just as we take a random walk, I am closing this thread with a conclusion, EA can be profitable but it can not be too complex for us to understand and it can not run in an isolated way - it has to be supervised.
