ParticipantHey Petko!
Any new courses coming up? Want to learn more from you!
I am quite happy with the courses and the software so far but I really want to master it!

ParticipantI don’t think you can prove anything to anyone…they just do it this way.
I would change the broker if I was you. If the trades are executing on time on the Demo, then it is not from the VPS.
Thapelo
ParticipantI personally put the commission that I see when opening a complete lot. I don’t think if the broker charges two times, that is a good sign. Most probably the EAs will fail with such a broker because the costs are high.
Thapelo
ParticipantYes, I can confirm that the EAs open one trade at a time.
I am interested to know more about that FTMO Challenge. Will be looking for more info from you…

ParticipantHey Petko!
I saw that there is a new tool for Historical data with EA Studio and FSB Pro.
Can we expect it on Forex Academy?
Thapelo
ParticipantHello Arturo,
I have friends that trade just the news but I do not think they make consistent profits. And they trade manually…
Andi is pretty right, the brokers can slower particular account for execution.
So it does not worth to invest time trading on new, and when you come up with a profitable strategy they can mess it up.
Anyway, why do you want to trade the news? There are movements all the time.
Thapelo
ParticipantIf you use a small period to optimise or generate strategies, you will be over-optimizing it. This means that the software will find the parameters that work best just for this short period.
That is why we use at least 100k-200k bars of data, and we are looking for the EAs that pass the Monte Carlo.

ParticipantHello Abinvest,
Glad to hear from you. Yes, we have it in the to-do list to add the search tab in the Forum.
You can set certain hours for training with the EA Studio. Go to the EA Studio, Tools and Trading session.
For example, if you set from 9:00 TO 12:00, the generated strategies will open trades just between these hours.
Also, there is an indicator of Entry Time.
Cheers,
Thapelo
ParticipantNormally if you see a strategy with the same Magic Number it means it is not updated. Only the course Top 5 Forex strategies go with the PFD attached. You can see there if there was a change. And if there was one, it will be underlined.

ParticipantHey John,
The best practice is to start with wide acceptance criteria. For example, use just Min count of trades 300 and a profit factor of 1.2.
Or you can use just consecutive losses in Forex which means that the strategies you want to trade must not have more than 7 consecutive losses, for example.
When you get many strategies in the collection, like over 100, you can add some more criteria
Thapelo
ParticipantYes, Andi is correct. You can create 99 strategies just using the generator there. It works slower, but it will give you more complexed strategies. You can select using Higher Time Frame filters as well, but this might slow the process. The more criteria you place, the fewer strategies you will see, and you will need to run the generator for a long time or a few times.
Thapelo
ParticipantHey Roman,
It makes me very happy to hear that my work helped you during the time, and it sounds like you made the most important conclusions.
I tell those in most of my courses but the important is to go through it by yourself.
For example, it is important to find out your own parameters, ranges for the generator, acceptance criteria and all that will form your usage of the generator.
After that is the moment of managing the account. And that is why I do not give exact rules to follow the account, but again it should be own method that makes one comfortable trading the EAs.
Happy holidays to you as well and keep me updated with your trading!
Kind regards,
Petko A

ParticipantToday I want to say a huge THANK YOU to Forex Academy team and Forex Software,
Petko and his team are so responsive on the email and the forum. I doubt at the beginning before taking the Optimal Pack that ones I take it, they will not be so responsive, but just the opposite. I get answers to every question, Skype call if it is needed, and they help w lot if I am stuck with backtesting Forex strategies or something else.
I will not talk about the value of the courses, I am sure everyone who took a course knows how valuable are they. Getting updates every month for free is something you can not really find anywhere else.
On the other side Forex Software keep updating EA Studio all the time. Since I got the license there were some awesome uptdates, and R century we go the Normslizer. This is a tool I couldn’t fine in any other Forex software. It does not only improve the backtesting Forex strategies process but makes the strategies faster, simpler and more profitable. I really do not know how these guys invent all of that but it is just fantastic.
thanks guys, you are pros
Kind regards
