This is one of a few eas I am trusting trading on real accounts.
My friend ! The EA is good, and yea you may trust in it ! No doubt ! BUT: you cant trust in the unpredictable markets - never ever !

So even if you have a "fine" EA you trust in - remember the rule: the worst thing that may happen in this crazy FX market will happen sooner or later - for sure !

Trades closed and pendings deleted on real accounts for some nice $$$
Will enable PPoS next week again, thanks Steve, AGT and Pipcruiser

I haven't changed much, allowing it to trade on Mondays, 5 multi trades and used the ATR TP and SL on the main trades.

Since I don't have a lot of time available this month I'll let it run full auto with following ATR settings: TP 3, SL 1, BE 1, JS 0,5. Previous settings were 4,5-1,5-1,5-1 I believe. Decreased the SL because all losing trades straight went through it and I think only 1 trade turned just before it. Let's see how upcoming month will be, I will be filtering out the pending orders for clear trends though.

Hi, did you remove the myfxbook on PPoS with ATR settings?
I was curious about how it was performing compared to the fixed sl/Tp/be and jumping stops.

Yes, I removed it. I ran into a pretty big drawdown and the system doesn't really fit my trading style.
From what I saw from others it did recover pretty good after it.

I have very low dd with this ea. But I only trade main trades, no multitrades. I like the better profit factor and lower dd.

Hi, :hi:
I've tested both with and without ATR. The one without has been running since mid Jan and has been very consistent(+2700pips total), it did take a very small loss in Feb(-88pips). and a loss in April(-700pips).
The ATR has been running since April 1st. and came out with a profit in April (+1100pips), and is also doing better in May. They are not live so I let them trade yesterday, and the ATR seems to do ok. I have different SL/TP settings depending on ATR on the pairs, and it does seem to keep them out of trouble, but as mentioned in an earlier post, they both show to benefit hugely from not being traded after the 20th. each month.

Are you calculating sl and tp manually per pair? You dont use the atr settings in the inputs?

I am using ATR, but also changing the fixed TP/SL for the multi.

I reduced the multi trades to 2. This decision was based on watching price action on a few of the trades. I don't want to push it to hard as the stops can give back too much. Plus it's on a live account.
