5% seems like nothing for drawdown, take a look at dd for eurusd by itself, 23%! Its supposedly meant for how it fairs on the long-run.

Does anyone here run TFOT on a smaller acct? Mine is $670 on Finfx-micro.
It may be that TFOT is good for only Pro big accts like AlpariUS-Pro as opposed to whats told that it be good on any acct. I've run mine for a month on Finfx and haven't gotten anywhere yet, albeit there was holidays covering half the time. Boris does admit there is quote + spread differences, guess meaning it most likely won't do as well. He says he will think about putting a Thou w/ TFOT at fxopen-ecn, he found this broker as lowest deposit ecn, .....says they may do. Perhaps more of you can either encourage this or tr......

I will run TFOT on eurusd for free on your $1000 real fxopen.com account for certain number of months. Yes, I bought TFOT on holiday special. This is approved to do and promote by Boris. I would set-up MT4 with your trading password, this would not allow me access to your account, it only allows MT4 to trade on it. We could start your trading at smallest level to play it safe if you like, believe .01 lots instead of "usual" 5%. Reason I'm offering is to see how well best lowest-deposit-ecn-broker does with TFOT. It's not been long period of time my Finfx-micro or ibfx has been run b......

Thx Boris for your hard work.

Jolly good. Doesn't this combo pair report look smoother than eurusd alone? Thats why it be good to see if Borys can add usdcad "to the mix" as you suggest.

Just found it too, Boris uses the muitli reporter software to combine the two separate tests, link to that software is atop that report url: http://iticsoftware.com/experts/report/TFOT-eurusd_usdcad_1999.htm the increase of profit isn't the point, as when running both the lots on each would be smaller, the main thing is smoother ride....see relative dd, just a little over 2%.

I "second the motion", because iticsoftware site shows the two pairs back-tested ok, and as diversified combo live it could very well be even smoother less jagged equity curve.......albeit .........eurusd all by itself isn't anything to complain about.

I talked with myfxbook thoroughly and find if both green checkmarks atop a myfxbook acct then it's impossible to fake, broker acct, deposit $ balance, trades, authority to trade, its all confirmed. Boris was most amenable to fixing one red checkmark that showed for a moment, it was just investor password difficulties. So happy its "back on track" re: evidence, as it be a bad waiste if such good EA didn't have it.
With the positive news on this discussion board and 100% proof of results on myfxbook, I 've decided to try to save last few hundred I need to purchase when its on special ......

Ok! Took awhile but on this Wedn 6th July a tiny trade occured so was able to pin start date to 7/4/11.
As said in previous post its optimization point where there are no losers over last 6 months. If a loser occurs someday then it only take on average 2 trades to make up for it (average win size trades and using risk set to 10%). Trades occur on average once each week, last one before this one was on june 17th so talking "on average".
OK folks, mt4 maintiaining in collecting 15mins and knock-on-wood all can continue forward well from here.
Truly,
Jerry

Found I am back to zero losers optimization but at 10% risk instead of 20%, dd comes out at around that too, so after a trade on 6/27 wanted to re-pin to 6/26 or 6/25 to be past 6/24 loser but system here at myfxbook don't like selections around weekend so may have to wait for another 1st trade by these new presets to select date from a then wider break in time. Btw the gain is 100% in 6mo.
Thx.
