Ah, here we go... crash 'n burn.

Several EAs at work here. Multivers hasn't traded at all yet(dunno why), SteadyWinner opens orders rarely(seems to perform well when trades thought) but Ilan-TrioKS seems rather trigger happy. Waiting for it to blow the account. All at pretty much default, some small changes in Ilan-TrioKS(MM=on). I believe Ilan-TrioKS can really benefit from a little optimizing in some parameters. Changed the code so that I can change indicator parameters too

Rather scary equity...

Get a requote or some other kind of order rejection at the wrong time and you are in the deep stuff. One of the reasons Martingales are such a dicey proposition on live accounts.

I am rather new to forex and trading in general but it seems that backtests(at least 90% accuracy) are only good for finding out if EA is any good in the first place and see what kind of effects different changes in settings do. If they seem to work as intended then they are worthy of forward tests :) Forward tests are used to confirm backtest results. If EA survives or manages to achieve something other than utter failure on demo account it should be TESTED on real account. Preferably with very small capital on micro account. This is the real test of any EA. So in general I think one shoul......
