DislikedSince Feb 23, here the win/lose ratio was 30/8 for an roi=13%, with a max DD = 5.6%
Evidently different feeds lead to different results, but we all seem to be well into the green; yet another confirmation of profitability, if it keeps behaving that nice.Ignored
DislikedThey have already stated that they reserve the right to widen the spread on some/all pairs during Asian session.
It mainly happens with EURCHF and EURGBP because someone is scalping thousands of trades for 2 pip profits.
Not only are they losing money but it is kicking the hell out of their servers.
I believe that there has been a new/modified version of FAPTURBO which is the cause of this.

PS. I had a trade on EURCHF which the spread increased to 27 which I mentioed previously. This combined with its low ADR means it is untradeable...Ignored

DislikedJust to add my results for THG v1.6.
Pdf attatched below. 22nd Feb - 5th March. I closed the last 4 trades manually. Results speak for themelves! OK so it's only 2 weeks of testing, but it's damn impressive!

DislikedI am going to run the latest version without news checking for the following reasons....
1. ALL DAY events are not handled.
2. TENTATIVE events are not handled.
3. News impact is not allways correct.
4. The file is not always updated before Sunday open.
5. There is no support for different timezones when called by an EA.
6. The function is over complicated and difficult to modify.
7. If high impact news is enough to turn the trade against you by more than your ADR SL then you should just take the loss or kill the trade. Most likely a trend...Ignored
