Could you recommend me a configuration that can be all right for trade minilotts?
We say 0.05 with lever 1:200.
For miniaccount ?
Thanks.
You may do the following:
- open demo account with mini lots, your desirable deposit size and with 1:200 leverage;
- download some old Newstrader EA (version #2 for example) from the first post of this thread. Old versions are not using our calendar tool. Those versions are using text file instead of our calendar.
- place old version of Newstrader in /expert folder and text file in /file forder. You may find the explanation on the first post of this thread.
- write some news events in your text file for backtesting.
- backtest or ioptimize the settings.
Because, as I understand, old versions of this EA is using the same money management so you may find your settings.
As to me so I think that Newstrader #6 is very good because:
- you may create your own news events and you do not need to rely on me or somebody else;
- you may use different settings for different news events;
- you may backtest everything.
As to me so I am forward testing version #5.3 so I do not need to write any text file. But if I want to find some other settings so I will use old versions.
And some statement for Signaltrader. I am testing new signals on D1 timeframe and posting it every week on Sunday. This signals are visible for me only. I need one more week and I will post SignalTrader.

I got this far and got lost.
- Place ForexTSD_Calendar_v1.5 file to \indicators folder (for example: C:\Program Files\Metatrader4\experts\indicators).
- Place WebGet.mqh file to \include folder (for example: C:\Program Files\Metatrader4\experts\include).
- Place WebGet.dll file to \libraries folder (for example: C:\Program Files\MetaTrader4\experts\libraries).
I did that now what else I need to do?

I did that now what else I need to do?If you are about ForexTSD_Calendar_v1.5 indicator (indicator to see the news on the chart) so read this post https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/177102
If you want to test EA so you do not need any indicator:
- place EA to \experts folder;
- place .mqh file (WebGet) to \experts\include folder;
- place .dll file (WebGet.dll) to \experts\libraries folder.
I am testing the versions 5.3 the default settings (name of EA is name of the pair).
