Ok!

Let me answer some of your questions.
I am from Croatia. As I allready said I am new here therefore I don't have many trades.
When I was talking about my search for 'zero' risk I didn't mean to become 100% right with my trades.
Instead I have calculated my average Risk/Reward ratio (Profit Factor)

If you can get Profit fator 2 that means trading without risk and that is very hard to achieve.
I know that there are planty of EA-s out there with more than PF: 2.
Only problem with those EA-s is their chances!!!

Let me explain:
They take large risk (for example: 1000, maybe 2000 or perhaps 3000 pips) and then they scalp the market.
Everthing is good with their trading and PF is more than 2, till huge loss showup!!!

Therfore I had to find a way to get my chances right!

Now I have acomplish that and here are my chances:

Chance to make huge DrawDown from -1.38:1 to -2.7:1 is only -5.5%
Chances to make a negative DrawDown wich is -1:1 to -1.38:1 only 13.8%
Chances to make from zero profit to 2:1 profit is round 36.4%.
Chances to make profit with money managment 10:1 to 3:1 is 27.7%
Chances to make profit with money managment 3:1 to 2:1 are 16.6%
As you can see I have DD all the time!



You see PF:2 is considered like trading without risk only by chance 50:50!

I have never succed to get that!

Instead I had to adopt my chances!

Now my chances over the long therm trading are :
Profit Factor: 1.5
Chance to earn or get even are greater than 50:50 ( chance to make a loss only round 20%)
Therefore if I have chance 60:40 and PF:1.5 it is same as PF:2 with chance 50:50

I appriciate the critics as well !!!
 

I am sorry I do not understand your numbers above.
But simply looking on your account
 - your drawdown is almost 100% = loss of your whole account
 - your profit is pathetic

That was withdraw!
Click on the profit tab it is more accurate!
I have allready informend Myfxbook service to make that correction but I don't know why they didn't.
Thanks for your replay!
It is most important to have your risk setup to zero!

well
Balance: $20136.41
Profit: $77.61
Deposits: $39930.79
Withdrawals: $19872.00

+40,000 deposit
- 20,000 withdrawal
= 20,000 left (balance)

So where is the profit? This $77?? :))

First deposit was 20 000 than I withdraw all the money out to check the broker.
After that I put 20 000 on my account. now I have 20 136$ on my acc.
Problem is :
Why Myfxbook see 39930 as deposits ??? (maybe two deposits)
Why Myfxbokk see DD more than 100%???


The truth is that I have put only 20.000$ second time and now I am trading with this money.
You can see this as balance.

I don't know how realible Myfxbook is!

I wouldn't consider profit untill I get 20% of profit because there must be some money left for oscilation!
My goal is to make round 5%/month on average!

Pip Teacher: There is no such thing as zero risk. anyone who claim to have zero risk system is a liar / scammer. Becareful guys. Every system has risk.

Thank you XharpScalper for your help!

When I set this date I see the real track record!
This is only for a moment - not for others to see the real statement.

LKHedge -My answer: if you have read my posts from the begining you will notice that i have said near zero risk!
               My question for you: 'what is the possibility for coin to fall on tail 100 times in a row?'

It is most important to have your risk setup to zero!

It could be the case that you have first account with auto update
and when auto-update was disabled you start sending data via MyfxbookEA?
In such case they double deposit etc...

Very impresive track record!
Do you compound your profit to get such a score?
