why? I am not looking for money at the moment. I am building my account to gradually increase size to some respectable levels.
The thing is, I believe I can do it based upon my trading especially risk control.
Also, I am trading futures with futures broker. cannot be connected to myfxbook.

No reason. Most of those who post results here are looking for funding or EA peddling. i am not looking for anything.

it depends on your strategy - use ea or trade by hands. As for me I always trade by hands (due to avoid risks with big amounts), but if you're sure about your strategy, currency, have a lot of experience, so you may easily make semi-auto mode trading. But I still strongly recommend you to watch the market when you're trading 🙃
There can't be enough money

Well can you prove it? Can you post some manual trader who is successful in long term?
As trader with self control you should follow some clear trading rules.
If you have such rules EA can always execute them faster and more precisely.

There are many manual traders with a drawdown less then 30% and their profit is more then 30%. You have to work with your trading system!

That's even worse. You made 75% within few weeks.
The point is that your account will be wiped soon

Hopefully, I will show you what an EA must do to to get a chance to get successfull.
1) Equity always above growth (Orange > Red) => Closing loser trades, & leave wining ones.
2) Average profit > Average Loss => Risk/Reward 1/2 minimum.
3) Drawdown < 10% => Make sure your account will never blow out
4) Winning ratio => don't care about it.
5) Live trades as example.

But why is everyone so concerned about drawdown ? If its happened just once in some time, i feel it does not have any bearing on the future profits.

Well, it depends on what the 75% draw was the result of. The higher the percentage of draw, the higher the efficiency of the system so long as it never reached 100%. If the 75% is a worst case scenario not likely to be repeated within our life time and the constant draw is less than 50%, you actually have a pretty safe system. On the other hand, if you have only been trading for less than a year and the draw is normally over to 50%, yes, then you may need help.
The draw is a measure of how hot your system is. If your draw is never over 25% Then you should double the size of the trade to double the profit and have a draw of around 50%. I look at 50% as the half way between profit and risk, however it really depends on the system.
Another indicator of risk is the profit percentage. If a system got over 5% a month, I would be hesitant to put real money into it until I saw and understood how it works. More profit – more risk. Professional traders would give their soul for a constant 5% per month and reasonable risk, except as we all know, professional traders have no souls. Goldman-Sachs is the valley of the damned.

With all the respect to you I disagree. Any system with 75% DD is dangerous and very close to account end. It does not actually matter why.

As DD is showing the risk you are willing to take. If you took 75% you were very close to killing the account.
