ParticipantHi Jesus,
You need to enable “Medium and High News Filter”. CPI shows up on the medium filter. However, you may not see it show up on the chart until we get closer to the 22nd.

ParticipantHi Angelo,
In the Portfolio Summary what Data Source are you using?
In live trading what broker / prop firm are you using?

ParticipantHi Roni,
MT4 can only support 100 Expert Advisors so MT4 will only support Ten of your portfolios. To run the 90 portfolios with 10 EAs in each one you would have to have 9 different MT4’s connected to the same account. I have had two MT4’s connected to the same account but not 9. I suppose you could connect 9 MT4’s to one account. You may need multiple demo accounts.

ParticipantHi Bruno,
It is not necessary to change the time zone for each broker. As an example, Petko publishes EAs for the FTMO challenge in his FTMO app. Here traders can download the EAs and use them on any broker or prop firm.
To see the data in the Historical Data app you need to select the Data Preview tab.

ParticipantHi Llalmar,
This Forum is “EA Studio” and the Topic is “FTMO CHALLENGE with EA Studio EAs”. This is not the topic about EAs created by EA Trading Academy nor is it the topic about EAs from the FTMO app.
These trades are from the EAs I created using EA Studio and I am using them in my FTMO Challenge. I share my results for those who use EA Studio to create their own EAs.

ParticipantHi Bruno,
The Expert Advisors created by EA Studio can be used with any broker / prop firm. The only time you need to be concerned about the time zone is when you import Historical data from the historical data app.

ParticipantThe following chart shows the result of my FTMO 50K Challenge for this week. I call it my FTMO Challenge because the Expert Advisors were created by me using EA Studio. The EAs used this week were GBPUSD M15, USDCHF M15, and EURUSD M15. This week was a very profitable week for my Expert Advisors.

ParticipantHi Angelo,
All expert advisors will go through a period of drawdown. You can expand your Data Horizon to cover the last one or two years. Then you can look at the strategy report and you will be able to see that stats for the EA. Among the many stats for this EA you will find the stagnation period and the daily and maximum drawdown. These stats will give you an idea of what you can expect in the future. While the longer term outlook is for the EA to be profitable over the shorter term the EA can go through periods of stagnation and drawdowns.

ParticipantHi Arron,
There are not any set files. What you do is select the correct options before you download the robots and the proper settings will be installed into the robots properties.

ParticipantHi Aaron,
Risk is associated with the lot size so the smaller the lot size the lower the risk. Sometimes what I do is make the lot size 0.01 this keeps the account active and does not affect the account balance significantly. I then track the results with FXblue. Then when I see one of the robots starting to make profits I increase the lot size until the profits start to drop off. Then I reduce the lot size back to 0.01 and start all over again.

ParticipantHI AAron,
Sounds like you are on the right track. Did you download the robot from the FTMO app? Since you are taking the 200K challenge did you download the 200K robots? Also did you chose the correct Max Loss, Max Daily Loss, and Profit Target to match the prop firm specifications so you won’t blow your account?
Alan,
