you meant you lost 50usd or 50000usd, that is a big distance between it. I think you should stop it.

most of these contest usually end up just like this one. Most of these EA's these traders use either are not allowed or dont work on a real account. And if the leader has this EA on a real account that can be verified it would be linked to some social site somewhere. anyways want to see a real trader that doesnt use a robot. MQL5 user name johnpaul77.

When these robots work so well why are they still doing contests with it and making all this trouble?

Agreed just got wind of him this week, so boss.

How it works in a real account @meer55 ?

On a real account will not work. The broker will not allow.

Thanks for the info @Aggresive
But what about his aggressive system that profited +1673% on a real account very quickly, which robot you are using for this spectacular result?

As they could be?

when trading is cheating, no meaning to join contest. i dont agree with the admin. they just traded and disqualified. its nonsense.
no logical reason here..

I can't believe one of them was trying to justify why no one should be upset over the fact that he was cheating, because it was a system designed by man. So, I guess as long as something that's designed to cheat it's okay ethically because it was designed by man. Seriously?

Okay, so if we're playing poker and I design a way to shuffle cards to give myself the best hand when needed it would be okay because it was designed by man. Makes sense according to his logic, right?

Some people are just completely foolish in their thought process. Glad they're gone, can't deal w/ cheaters.

Overall risk, my account of the championship dropped from $ 22K to $ 3K, but I still will arrive in you! 😎

А роботом можно торговать на конкурсе?

I do not defend anyone. If any strategy allowed why not. why do you said is cheating?

Да, можно

Contest full of cheaters ! how come most of the time top rankings are from the same country !

Because it is. He wasn't doing the trading himself. This is a contest of HUMANS trading against HUMANS, not robots. If that were the case we'd all just set up one and be done with it and let the contest play out, where is the fun in that? It's stupid.

EAS are allowed. Broker latency arbitrage EAs however are NOT allowed.

Hey guys, I'm a FX newbie, so don't laugh at my silly question. But can we only trade during the london market hours that are on the market watch timeframe in Metatrader 4 for this contest?
