A question:
Does the EA ever trade both pairs at the same time? Or have you now disabled EU trading untill the EG trades are closed?
So in other words are the two pairs trading 100% independently or ?

Looks like it is over 30% loss here without being closed?

Alex, could I use anther EA next to Blue Monkey? Meaning if the 30% risk settings are hit on Blue Monkey, will it close all the trades or only the trades opened by Blue Monkey?
Could you update your MyFxbook? I assume that you also lost 30%?

Sincerely...
If Bluemonkey´s team wants to be honest with people and the drawdown has increased to the maximum of 30% it would be really good for their credibility to assume the lost and reflect it on their account. Tha´s the only way they can really continue and not blowing the account as with other EAs they developed...with that performance is better to show the real working of the EA than continuing until the balance curve goes to zero.

The 30% everyone has lost proves the system is working as programmed.
If you read the manual im pretty sure it lays it out there.
Lower your risk and inital lot if you dont have the appetite, expect smaller returns.
The 400% gain is representative of the risk willing to be taken

I have assumed 1/3 of the risk assumed by bm. I did not get stopped out yet. I have my sl at 10% and have had a max of about a 7% drawdown. Not sure if my lot sizes are less than 1/3 but according to alex I am set at 1/3. Sorry to all who have lost (I'm not fully in the clear yet but back down to about 5% drawdown). Lower you settings and risk less. Its a good system so far but better to be safe than sorry. I am going to to be decreasing my risk even more to about 5% risk each. Bm made 80% in one month 1/6 of that is still damn good!

well... the BM back tests results in more than 50% of DD. and the DD calculated by an MT4 back test is very bad (only calculated when a trade is closed)
so for sure the EA can have an DD higher than 50%.
we'll have to see if the profits will be good enough... or if the ratio profit / DD is too high.

sometimes. yet that is not critical to the life of the EA.
they work 100% independently but sometimes they have trades at the same time.

Yes I think he doesn´t use the 30% drawdown stop loss...that´s why in the end the account can crash...if the eurgbp continuous up without enough correction tha account will go to zero...that´s all
I think it would be better to assume the 30% lost and then keep on trading...that´s all...but is his decision...

The vendor disconnected his account to myfxbook for more than 1 day during this eurgbp drawdown to hide the fact that his new maximum dd was going to far exceed the calculated 28% that is currently displayed. Very deceptive since I would guess that the account was nearly wiped out and he was very lucky that it corrected when it did otherwise he would have been in need of a new account on his website. It really is only a matter of time before it is margin called with the risk level he is using in an attempt to display such huge gains.
Be afraid, very afraid?
