Experiment with EA on real account & contest one

I start a real experiment with EA expert. That is a bit risky and I will use just 0.01 lots for each order.

This expert combines two breakout systems: simple and news. I am not author of those systems, just use them under my MM & control system. EA was optimized only for GBPUSD pair. Strategy idea for 1-st system belongs to Hans Van Der Helm. It was first presented at http://www.strategybuilderfx.com/showthread.php?t=15439 as Simple Combined Breakout System. Strategy idea for 2-nd system used a simple fork at news time. I do not use any indicator. For me are important just time & price action.

This EA has all advantages and disadvantages of BE strategy. With my control system, I try to limit some of known disadvantages and improve the positive result more then 3 times as average.

On the 1-st of October, I will start the contest with the same EA but with extreme settings. That will give me possibility to compare the results with two different brokers with same system but with different MM & control. You will have a link after the first order put.

Will post all orders and result after EA did them. Please remember that that is just EA trades.
The end of experiment will be 21-st of Dec 2007.

My contest EA is alive & with positive balance. I forgot about daily time saving. Now it worked with a wrong settings and catch mostly retranchment instead a trend.
The main challenge at the moment is will EA finish with positive balance?:surprised

On weekly GJ show wolf wave pattern. Any time before the end of the 2007 trigger may be pooled. Will keep eyes on that pair. TP 2500+ pips.
