What's thereto look at? Floating profit-1,378.44. That's 20% of the balance. You don't even have to be a good mathematician.

If you look at the monthly result, this minus, only under good circumstances, can be repaid in at least a year.

We will wait and see. There is no hurry)

I decided to close positions with 1 dollar profit, which is 1% of my deposit, manually. So far, I have closed 3 positions for $ 5. Because of it floating loss increased.

The price song.

" Wait for me and I'll be back.
Just wait very long,
Wait when they bring sadness
Yellow rains,
Wait when the snows sweep,
Wait when it's hot,
Wait when no one else is waiting,
Forgetting yesterday."

In fact, the profits flow as well, although they are fixed, because the Expert Advisor immediately opens a new position in the same direction with a loss of spread. This is payment for comfort and psychological relief.
