Hi Pierre,

How long have you been testing this?

What results have you had?

strange thing ... why is this EA (!) posted in the section: "manual trading systems" ? It has to be moved into the EA thread section "Automated trading systems" ... ? ;)

Thanks, I've moved it to the correct section.

This is a very resilient EA!!! It has a ridiculously low DD and in fact makes money too.
I have been running this for about 4 or 5 days on demo OOTB with lot=0.1.
It has made numerous tades, is almost all the time in trade, from the start of $5000, the balance is $5373, equity is $5116. It has open trades in negative that I think will eventually come back.
Overall, It is in green. I am surprised. Seems to be very simple EA and apparently intelligent.

Dear Bernard - I hope you know that "4 or 5 days on demo" means absolutly nothing for testing an EA ...

Hi All,
i was quite surprised to see this here. thanks Jemook and Bourgenot,
got a few new demos running this EA. good results so far, but only a week or so. WIll update in my demo list if this shows promise in the next week or so.
One thing i can safely add here is that this EA must definately run on its own, regardless of magic numbers or anything else. Just on its own, no other EA's.
regards ,
cuz

Ps: maybe the thread name can be re-named to show the 'Charles V1......" :?:

Hi Cuz, glad to see you're on this one. It's been running nicely for me this week but as AGT says above, a week is nothing and I've yet to see a grid trader that doesn't blow a bloody great hole in your account eventually ... until then they do great! Let's see ... :D

I know that, AGT. I have seen an EA that after 4 months of successful trading, has blown the account in one single day.
I was just surprised that this EA on a demo account of $5,000 never went below $4,900. and at the end was positive.

Regards,
Bernard

I followed this with interest a while back , before I found this forum. I was using 1.3.3 right up to 2.0.9 It traded well for a while then went into a huge drawdown and eventually blew up.

Will be interested to look at this.
