Ok - so the manual trading gambler's dream using a martingale eventually blew the account as we knew it would. ANY martingale will most likely blow an account. The trick is...withdrawing more money than you invest.

A couples years ago I developed a similar automated EA. This uses a Martingale/Grid as well, but is completely automated. If an account is going to blow anyway, why waste valuable personal time watching charts? My goal is to start with $300 and withdraw every $100 and see how many times this can be done before the account blows.

Understand, I am a gambler, not trying to teach anyone trading styles or techniques. I do this for fun.

Well the only interesting thing about this system is it shows zero DD which is in fact impossible

Oh there will be draw down - give it time 😄 It's only been running a few hours. LOL

I have no doubt that eventually there will be 100% draw down. The goal is to pull more money out in withdrawals than originally deposited.

Thanks Frank - I can't call myself a professional trader as I am nothing close. Just an old poker player. At least at the poker table, I could intimidate my opponents. Forex charts don't react to an 'across the table' stare. LOL

You dont get it. Zero DD is not possible so either this is MFB bug or fake data.

I see what you're saying. It must be a bug as I am in draw down.
