I remember this EA from a while ago, found it on MQL codebase then followed it onto forexmetro I think was in French I think so had to translate. I have version 1.3.6 through 2.1.3. Was great for me for a while then blew up the account , but its what got me intrested in trying to code my own EA's as I couldnt work out what it was trying to do and how I could fix it.

Will have a look at this again now that I have a bit more coding experience. Could be really interesting.

So its worth to have a look on this bot - especially on Dietmars acc's (see some posts earlier at the beginning 2012 dec !) ... may be this a good one for further testing .... although I didn't try this one bcz the experience with this bot is a bit more ambiguous ... it didn't work for someone in the past ... so I'm not really sure about this EA ... hmmm

But so far the results are pretty good !! :mrgreen:

The understatement- of 2012.
Sorry Dave , had to have a chuckle at your expense here. :D


Okay, i'm not thrilled with this bot and needs a lot of time to look into.
Following post, are the results from the various demos and settings.
please ponder them and let me know if you would like the set files to continue. Check the name of the pic and see when the demo started.

The DD is also high here , can get rather high but have'nt spent time to play around here, so in its defense, there might be someone who can continue here.

The standard 2.1.5 set went horribly wrong for me with massive DD so i had canned it some time ago. It was shgowing a profit, but would'nt go near it with that DD.

Ok ... hmmm :o - looking at cuz's post above: this bot is more a doubtful thingy ? It seems it will fail sooner or later ... wont touch this one I think ... or is here anybody able to provide good arguments for further extended testing ? :?

AGT,
I havent stopped them yet but so caught up in other EA's i hardly have time to follow up. I would carry on here for at least another 2 or 3 months, then check results again. Gotta always give it a good shot.
