PS: I calculate (simple excel sheet) my lot size per EA (gold only) by calculating the max loss account % using the posted stop loss. I’m limiting each EA to 2% max loss. So the larger stop-loss EAs will have lower lots (duh!). So far, this has yielded a max Drawdown (consecutive losses) of 14% over 13 consecutive losses, with per-trade losses ranging from .14 to 1.08 % of account. Which is nicely less than my max calculated loss of 2%. I like the idea of the trailing stop as it minimizes these losses.
