A 3x Multiplier after Level 3. That's crazy. Is that the reason why the lotsizes are hidden on the rest of the accounts?



''So below are some backtest graphs for a number of currency pairs. All of these tests are for at least a three year period (January 2009 to January 2012).

Why 'only' three years? We don't think anyone is going to run an EA on a broker account for ten years letting their money build up to astronomic proportions. Life's too short! So the Forex Caterpillar package comes with plans to withdraw profits regularly.''



And do your backtests Blow the accounts in 2008?

Do you really want to go back to 2008?

No. Neither do we and neither does anyone else. We live for the future.

Check out our live accounts at https://www.forexcaterpillar.com/Live-Results.html

We'll just keep running live and so will our customers. You can keep watching and waiting.

Good luck with that.

  

The 'Trick or Treat' guy has a solid point. It's not a matter of 'do you wanna go back to the past' but if an EA is not able to pass the recession bumps that happened in the past more likely will crash when faced with similar market conditions. But then again no past tests can guarantee the future.


Using my systems as an example:

Here is an example of a 2010 - 2012 backtest: https://www.myfxbook.com/strategies/changedirea-v10/24944

and

Here is an example of 2005 - 2012 backtest: https://www.myfxbook.com/strategies/changedirea-32/27053

The first one ChangeDirEA v1.0 with aggressive settings didn't make it on the long run, but is still good on the short term as 'Take the money and run' I mean it is worth the risk but one has to withdraw the profit before it blows.

The second one ChangeDirEA 3.2 with conservative settings was able to pass the recession points but with less impressive numbers.

I'm using both versions on my live accounts but knowing the risk taken on the first one I started with a small amount only.

Good Luck all.

Why is it that some trades have SL and TP values? I thought Cat worked without them.

what kind of system is that? -19900 pips floating losses ? wow!!!

I suggest visiting the website https://www.forexcaterpillar.com/ it will explain everything.

I last posted here almost exactly six months ago. All our live accounts are still running, still have drawdowns and are still making profits.

Those who thought we were crazy six months ago probably still think we are crazy. Yet we are still here, still making money with Caterpillar and now have 75 live pairs running on several broker accounts.

Caterpillar V06 is scheduled for release later this month with a raft of additional features and the ability to run on any pair, commodity or metal that can be traded with MT4. Many of our accounts have already been upgraded to Cat V06 Beta for live testing.

If you are running any of those popular 'normal' EAs you will now be sitting on huge losses for the last few months which is obviously very depressing for you. If you are running Caterpillar, you will be smiling. Laughing even.

If you still think we are crazy, check back in another six months. Bye.

Oh, by the way. EzeFX members also get to run EZE057. Here's a myfxbook live EZE057 account going back to March 2012.

If that makes u happy. Whatever . Good luck in your caterpillar ..

If you check all accounts you will see almost 90% with margin -50%
100% in 1,5 Years it is just funny.

....

Just check all Accounts by yourself.
And this EA is selling for 25$ Monthly

+You you trying to wright here ' still have drawdowns and are still making profits.' Of cose.
around 200k in drawdown and this will never be back to Profit.

Do you really believe some one want to trade with your EA for 300$ in 1 Year?

He just refuse to close those losing trades and let it run forever. Setting some unreasonable (or i would say no sl and tp, because those value will never cone) stop losses and take profit. Ha ha funny guy!

Wake up dude. U can't withdraw anything of this kind of equity. Those winings are toy money. Come back to earth. Stop dreaming

The idea is risk management, to split the accounts as much as possible. Someone could, if they wanted run an account of $50,000 and earn 30-90% per year. Those are pretty good gains if you ask me. The system has already been proven, after a year the accounts have not blown and have made sizeable gains.

Wake up dude

Drawdown: 81.47%

loosing 30-90% per year it is correct

The drawdown now is 45.6% and coming down. The high drawdowns earlier on are because we deliberately underfunded most of our accounts to artificially stress Caterpillar.

Frankly, anyone can produce and run an EA when conditions are good. Underfunding is the best way we know to simulate difficult conditions for this type of EA and it has resulted in updated versions of Caterpillar being developed. This account is now running our latest Caterpillar V06 which deals with a major issue we had previously where commissions and swaps were ignored.

Perhaps instead of trying to rubbish this product you should have the patience to wait and see what happens in future months. We are running more than 20 live accounts and 75 live instances of Caterpillar. Now our underfunding exercise is complete we are starting to run V06 for regular income and will be making further investments shortly.

This kid still living in his own wonderland. So happy with such a equity . U need a doctor man.

Drawdown: 81.47%
Gain: +12.33%

U need a doctor man.

Here's some medicine for you.

https://www.myfxbook.com/members/realgains/caterpillareuraudusdchf/397511

63% gain in 8 months. Current drawdown 9%.

😀

No doctor can save this sick kid
