You remind me of a member named Retid2222: https://www.forexfactory.com/reteid2222
She was a talented EA developer and one of her EAs once hit 1000% gain in a short period time. And then it lost 90% or nearly all of its gains also in a short period of time.
. Of course, her accounts used were all demos. Let me see if your EAs can survive until next year.... I bet they cannot.

The current TEs I have up aren't very long in duration but actually I've been testing the strategy for several weeks. I think it's been about 2 months now that I've been testing various things like all pairs, subset of pairs, different times, etc.
The optimal method seems to be to apply the strategy to a single currency and all of its associated pairs. When doing this, all currencies go deep into net pips but some currencies go more than others. For example the GBP basket has netted the most pips while the CHF basket has netted the least.
One of several things that is special about my automated strategy is that it benefits from both trending and ranging markets. As you're probably aware, this is a difficult problem for an EA to solve profitably.
As for the TEs, I'll run the demos as long as my computer resources allow but more than likely, I'll discard the TEs down to the Tokyo GBP and London GBP for now until I get my hands on more resources.

Even Google machine learning couldn't make a success in financial trading. There are too much noises in trading. As you know Google hires all the top class geniuses. Clumsy home made EAs will eventually fall. It's just a matter of time.
