SPB has been working great on demo for months. Last week I went live. I probably should have waited to go live today.

For those of you worried about drawdown. Think about it. We had end of month, 4th of july week and NFP all coming up. There was bound to be some pullback. The hardest thing with trading is having enough patience. SPB is going to take profit one way or the other. I have faith in this little bot.

Make sure you have enough free margin, equity and patience to ride the waves...

Are people here starting to learn the virtues of patience yet, I wonder?

PeterUK, can you please tell what was that DD in %?

Drawdown is going to be very set file specific, especially with a gird based EA

All Relative... trading a fix lot size of 0.01 with some times up to 20 trades going taking up margin... I experienced about $200+ DD and then it recoved, it could get worst, hence you need a decent size account to not worry too much about DD and/or close trades within your risk tolerance, I'm also a semi-automatic trader
