TrendScalping EA讨论

It's so dang expensive. I can buy a brand new Xbox One with that money. My wife is definitely not going to agree with my spending my money on something that is risky. :/

I concure, I have done this many times with other EAs that cost even more and regret it very much.,

I don't want to regret it. I don't want to do something that will cause my family to lose money. We can't afford to lose money at all. We can hardly afford the rent right now..

@SubTh3ory With Xbox 1 you cannot make money, that's the difference why good EA won't be for free.

No, the difference is that I don't know if this will make me money. It's making you money now, but could crash the moment I start using it.
In other words, I am taking a risk. My wife will not allow that.

Look like you don't really understand draw-down.

Draw-down are losing trade but those trade have not closed, so they are not lost trade.

I have a draw-down of 55% but there are no lost trade mean that the 55% ended up becoming profit trade.

So if you are saying a system with 55% is not making money, i believe you don't understand the draw-down properly.

Well, i have achieved 1200%. So there is no chance i will be wiped.

So confident you should seek VC investors instead of poor retail traders... Top Hedge funds make less than 20% a year. A good year is 5% with 2-3 billions in portfolio. Don't say stuff like that, I understand the logic behind it but, there is still a *strong possibility that drawdown ends up being a loss, don't confuse people and tell them it won't be a loss.

I do understand Drawdown, I just am not sure if the strategy itself is going to continue to be consistently profitable. I've been watching many EA's in the past that were profitable for 5 months or more and still ended up failing for some reason. Until I have money to pay for the EA, I am just going to keep track of how it works.

I think anything under 30% DD is worthy in FX. Even still 30% is a lot of money to look at when all things considered the odds are against you. 30% should be worst case. So maybe could use this but lowered risk settings.

Ok, i will take up the challenge to proof you guys that low draw-down can be achieved. Thus i have stop my account and will transfer over a new account with the same system. But this time with a low draw-down.


The new account will have draw-down below 30%, will run for more than 5 month.

See you guys soon and happy trading. =)

*CLAPS* this one not looking so good

well they made 1300% so nice job. Hope some ws withdrawn

@rob559


It is not death. i withdraw a large amount of profit. As such sudden increase in drawdown due to profit withdrawal.

Did you read my previous post? I have indicated the reason.

Guys, @applesia1990 is running new TrendScalpingEA conservative account here:

I would like to request a backtest from 2008 until now on this given you seem to pride yourself so much on research and testing models. Please and thank you.

It seems like a backtest would be difficult on this system since it's not entirely automated and you have to change the direction you're trading when the trend changes.
