Moving ahead to the start of my live trading I'm focusing more and more upon only one bot: the PP/PPoS. So: looking at the results of the ZP (GP 10, 22, 25 + 3, 9) it seems, it's time to abandon this EA. Haven't a clue why this one isn't doing a good job like it did in the nearly past. Have to admit – the GP 3+9 are running with basket SLs despite the other 3 (GP 10,22,25). But none of them gave suitable results. The PPoS platforms GP 35+36 use the sAPBM with basket SL as well – the results aren’t good. So it’s time to stop them too.
The FS is in further testing as a second line EA for me, simply bcz of a long long time needed to get more reliable results.
AGT,
Did you ever say what the difference is between GP14 and GP30? They both seem to use identical EAs and setfiles, so I'm having trouble seeing what the difference is. Thanks for any help.

"hopfi2k" analyzed the GP 14 and following his recommendations I deleted AUDCAD, EURCAD, GBPJPY, and NZDCAD from the GP14-mod's GP 30,31,32,34 !
(These 4 accounts dont ude CHF pairs from start)
And yes, the USDTRY is switched off now in case of GP 14,30,31,32 + 34. The GP 14 is further running the CHF pairs.
Yep, right ! The TP is unchanged - so the basket can be fulfilled faster.
As I remember, I posted even the setfile for GP30 here in a "all you need" folder or so ... see above.
This week was nasty, especially for the FS bot ! I lost all what the EA could collect during the last weeks. The serious loss this week is a sign: focussing on the PPoS, the bot with higher potential it’s time to abandon the FS.
The PPoS tests show, that this EA is actually in trouble as well. See the platforms GP 14, 30, 31, 32, 34. for more details. During these slow movements in summer perhaps the PPoS is hard to use.
But I have to admit, that the PPoS running on some other platforms with time limitations, discussed here already some times, is doing much better !
On my VPS I use the bot
1. with daily time limitations like 07:00 to 16:00 and 17:00 to 19:00 (all GP, so: GMT +3)
2. with limitations of the trading days per month (avoid the last two weeks of the month, bcz of presumable trend changes)
The first issue definitely improves the results – boinvest kindly analysed this behaviour of the PPoS earlier (see his posts above in this thread). About the exclusion of the second half of a trading month I’m not sure so far – longer testing time is needed. Although someone else here in the forum analysing data like boinvest did, found out by now the positive effect of trading the first two weeks of a month only. Anyway I’m testing both ways … I hope with further success.
