Then: run a different pair; changing your settings; different broker; ritual sacrifice of some of Whips chickens; baying at the moon.
I don't know why your is not taking sells - mine is. The obvious answer is that the signals were all buys. Whatever, there is nothing I can do to solve a problem that is not manifesting itself here.
Good luck.

Re: Fmfx auto-trader. Another new toy by Steve Hopwood
I use the same set file and put it on Alpari for a quick test. With this set, it perform quite well for 2011.
But for 2009 to 2010, it was hovering below breakeven until Aug 2010, then it has a good run to end of 2010. So all in all it was profitable.
But I guess it is very difficult to trade this EA because it was in a loss position for 20 months.
The current set file seems to be curve fitted to 2011 up to current date.

One thing, using this set file, it only takes buy trades only. How could I make it taking short trades. Otherwise the test is invalid.

The market was not as volatile then as it is now, apart from that we are meant to optimize the strategy every time to fit into the current market state. No robot will work for a long time without consistent optimization to tackle the current market state.kwchau wrote:I use the same set file and put it on Alpari for a quick test.
