Sure, i have taken a riskier approach since i know most EA's end up blowing accounts down the road.

1. I have lowered Take Profit value to 35.0
2. increased lot size to 0.10 ( 10 cents a Pip)
3. Disabled trades on Fridays, i know EA does not have a parameter for it but as a work around, on Thursday afternoon i raise lot size above what my leverage allows. Example 5.00, i know EA will not open trades at that size because broker wont allow it. This way I only let it work on closing out floating trades before Market closes.
4. If there are no open trades on Thursday by 1pm EST before spreads are raised, then i close down terminal completely and reopen Monday 6AM before New York Session opens.. Sundays and Fridays are NO BUENO for trading

In short i treat this EA as a helper to execute trades so since i am trading at high lot size, if i see i am up $20,$25 dollars i close the trade manually.Last thing you want is for a reversal to happen and get margin call.

My next move for upcoming Monday will be to raise lot size to .20 (20 cents) and lower Take Profit down from 35.0 to 25.0
The End goal here for me if things go my way is to end up with only a Take Profit value of 15.0 which is more that enough for me and trade at $1 dollar pips.

"My Pairs of choice, GBPUSD - USD/JPY 5M & 15M"

GBPUSD ---> 5M & 15M
USD/JPY ---> 5M & 15M

so total 4-time frame you run at the same time?

Here is my profit so far...I have 3 EAs running..GBPUSD M5 GBPUSD M1 and USDJPY M5. I use 0.01 lots for 2 EAs and for GBPUSD M1 I use an MA filter so trades less frequently/less risky so use 0.05 lots

Drawdown is ( I guess it take the drawdown for the entire account. I have many EAs running on this account..not sure if this number help anyone or not.)

Thanks bro, this is the best EA i have ever used so lets see how it goes.

I am thinking of lowering down Lot size to 0.05 for all pairs and add AUDCAD to the mix.
Also bring down Take Profit value to 25 Pips. That is my sweet spot, i think aiming for 45 PIPS is too ambitious and risky so that is not an option for me. My strategy is simple, the more i increase my lot size, the more i lower Take Profit. I would like to end at 15 PIP take Profit trading at $2.50 cent pips

If you want to solve your problem with too many frequent trades, instead of enabling MA filter, just don't run these pairs at 1M time frame.

When you say you have "many EA's" are you referring to other besides Filter Grid?

Burat, i think you may consider getting rid of EURCAD and adding US/JPY into the mix. Based on your summary results, that pair does not look good.

Hi
I have too many EAs running on one account so it won't be helpful...I can share bigger pictures if you are interested.
Do let me know what you want to look at and I will share...
I did testing on EURCAD and added that yesterday...I plan on sharing results every Saturday
I have also shared my settings...
Also, when I test grid type EA..I always see when it blew the account...if you test most of the pairs even with a 10k account the EA blew the account at some point. It is pretty safe since 2017 onwards but most blew the account in 2015 and 2016..I use the MA filter as it does trades less and does not blow the account...put it on M1 so that it does enough trades to give good profit.
Again anything I can do to help...it is a 4 trillion dollars a day market and if my settings will help someone make $200 a day then it is no problem...enough for all of us to make decent money.
Regards
