acceptable rudeness! :)) - page 5

 

Delus, you have tens or hundreds of times more drawdown than your starting deposit in all your tests. Doesn't it confuse you?

You have a good starting point (which you can't get in real life) that saves your account from an imminent MC. Take off the rose-coloured glasses or it will cost you dearly. Do not take into account any test result where the drawdown will reach at least half of the starting deposit. If the EA is not for sale, but for yourself.

 

Goldtrader,

Don't get too excited, if you set the MM to 10% you'll be fine, have you seen a profitable EA since 1999, especially one that trades often?

 
A suggestion is made to rename the topic "impenetrable stupidity"...
 

Timbo,

I agree, I'm trying to explain something to them and they are stubborn)) By the way, timbo, have you had a profitable advisor since 1999?)))

Do you think you have a profitable one, delyus? A walrus, brother, definitely a walrus...
 
delyus:

Tell me, have you seen an EA that has been profitable since 1999?


Not only did I see it, I wrote it ;) And sent it to you ;)

Delus, with your permission I'll lift the veil of mystery a bit :)

In all likelihood, the reports you have just published have been generated with the Expert Advisors you received from Victor (Vinin) and me and they have been declared "non-working". And the difference is that you moved them to a higher (from M1 to M5) TF and increased SL and TP. At least, running both of my "non-working" EAs with parameters from your test, I got very similar results. Shall I post the state (with a chart :)?


The problem is that they splendidly cut a cabbage on the fluffy history, while the EURGBP spread was clearly over 2 pips. The tester doesn't store the spreads history, so you have to look through the history of 1999-2005 with the current spread of 2p. In 2007, the number of deals declines catastrophically and the Expert Advisor stops making money, and in 2008 it completely loses profit. That is probably why GIFs "do not fit" :) But despite all the shortcomings, the dust in the eyes of the majority of potential buyers will be fine. Especially with such a loyal price of $300. So good luck with the sale.

I can tell you with confidence that not only will you not become a prize winner at the Champ2008 with this EA, but you won't increase your deposit/equity either.

 

Still, not to be unsubstantiated...

Basement is in the zip. Note the number of trades after 2006.

But this EA should sell :) The EA market is gaining momentum :)

Goldtrader,

I am surprised that you still squeezed a profit out of your EAs, I should have written them down. Although no, your chart goes down at the end, while mine does not. i am not working on that algorithm, so as not to waste time. this algorithm is new and unique today. by the way, like before it was 3 pips, now it is 2, so it is probably bullshit, because the spread reduction must have compensated by increased filtration

Reason:
