Thanks Matt, this is very helpful.
I have been back-testing all weekend on the DD experienced in April. I have changed the following settings which seems to have helped:
- For Target Settings I have chosen “Fix Money as a point” thus forcing the EA to pick my Take Target setting allowing me to close out a trade early with smaller wins.
- I have also implemented Grid Settings to be Min Distance to be 150 which works well for my strategy (EURUSD and ERUJPY)
