Yes, it's a Martingale expert, but uses smart strategies to choose the direction with flexible settings to get it under control. and also can be used trading with a stop loss.

The profit potential is limitless. also losses. you need to have a long enough back test before trading. i think my attached set file has!
So is it demo? Not for real account?

strange language above the graph, that's why i didn't get that
By the way, i would not start trading unless i get at least 1 year of successful back test in strategy tester.
Just catch this kind of trend - you done.

What do you expect EA to do! if youre looking for a holly grail, well that is not exists. if you want to use the EA you need to find appropriate settings for a specific pair, and specific time frame.

Very true. These kind of equity-curves are extremely dangerous, as your test shows it.
A good curve is like this:

Long time ago i believed that EA could do a good job, fully automated robot to help you open and close any positions, however i don't believe it now. Why?

I am EA coder and know well of the defect of coding, no matter how perfect is the rules of EA, it would fail the test if there is big jump in 1 sec. Meaning to say the tester result is not accurate. Of course there are other external factors like spread, speed of execution, historical data and etc could affect the accuracy of testing performance. What i believe now is EA could help trader to manage open positions and assist in money management, position entry still need manual works.

I believe that a perfect EA (Could solve the above factors) survive in all times in LIVE account, it must be a very very complex coding EA, but possible.

No offences. But just for sharing.
Thanks.

The EA has 6 Strategies, with different settings, and can be used with a stop loss, so can generate different kinds of curves, it depends how much profit do you expect. 10% a year or, 100% a month. and please let me know if you found a very high profit EA that also is not dangerous!
