I also want to know it.. maybe we can run backtest with Sky's setting on our broker..
Yeah, but when you going to run tests on your brokers, plz post

charts as well as I want to see it.. Look attached Report.

I'm still working on some but looks like minimum SL is 130

(before you run backtests Download/update 1Min TF data GBPUSD in History)



TP1 =24 TP2 =47 SL=130 Trailing SL=14


I'm waiting for those screenshots

P.S sorry actually there is 1 LOSS..

and very last loss -25$ is just because Trade was closed at the end of Report..

I'm trying SL=140 now and see if that loss will be illuminated. If not then IT's ok, will leave 130 SL.

Loss still there even at 140, so, I'll stick with 130 since results are the same

do backtest 5 month or so for start and then up to 1 year is you wish

Most Newbs here are getting rich quick type of traders, untill they lose their accounts..

This EA won't do any difference for $1k accounts, anyways

Time needed for backtesting using Sky's setting will take much longer than expected..

Never expect that to download history of 1M TF of GBPUSD will take a long time, about 10 minutes, not even 1/4 completed.. One question, am i doing it right?? History center, Fx-Majors, GU, TF=1M, download..

Did this happened to you Sky..??

Yeah it takes some time till about middle, then from there it would

finish quicker.. I think too many people loading from same location, that's

why it's slow..

Dude, you do whatever you want, especially on Demo you could

set 20 pips Stop Loss no problems.. And when you bet real money

on it, you want to make sure everything is right.. How long you've

been trading? 5 days?

Sky, I think you need to be a bit more specific in what you are telling people
before you get everyone completely baffled.

You should say that these settings are ones you have optimised for ACTbrokers and are not necessarily valid for other brokers, remember ACTbrokers are ECN.

The settings that I posted are for Alpari UK and are still valid for retail brokers.

Well, they ask me to post settings and I did.. now I'm testing IBFX, obviously need different settings there.

OK, just calm down, I am not saying you are doing anything wrong!

Just be sure to state which broker your settings are for and we can all
avoid any confusion and benefit from your hard work!

A lot of people use IBFX so the ideal settings for them will be very important
to a lot of members who don't know how to do the optimisation.

OK EA must be tuned up for each broker.. So you guys

take small backtest period like 3 month and change settings here

and there, try to find the best ones.. I gotta work on my loss there

maybe I'll be able to illuminate it..
