Hi Ricky,
In Generator use Out of Sample Testing. Historical data set for last one year including the current date. In the Acceptance Criteria make the out of sample and in sample white fields to have a profit factor of 1.2. This should get you going in the right direction.

FXIFY 50K One Step Challenge
The FXblue Stats below shows the complete 47 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. To pass the challenge the account equity needs to reach $55000. As can be seen the account has approximately $1662 to go. In this challenge I am using a combination of Prop Firm robots and robots I created using EA Studio. The stats show this account has an average monthly return of 4.8% which indicates the account should easily become funded in less than a month. However, I have a problem! The FXIFY prop firm has now migrated my trading terminal to DXTrade which means I can no longer use my robots. So, what I am going to do is to use my Infinity Forex Fund funded account and copy trade to my FXIFY challenge account. To do this I need to move my robots from my FXIFY account to my IFF account. However, I am not so nieve to think I can just move my robots from my FXIFY account to my IFF account and they will continue to trade as normal. So I back-tested all my FXIFY robots using EA Studio to see how they perform using the Infinity Forex Fund historical data. In doing so I found that the robots did not perform as well with the IFF historical data as they did with the FXIFY historical data. So I need to make some changes to the robots before I can continue with my FXIFY challenge.

FXIFY 50K One Step Challenge
In the FXblue Stats below I am showing the complete 40 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. Over the last few weeks the challenge has been going through a stagnation period with a small drawdown. It now looks like the challenge is starting to profit again. I started out using the Prop Firm robots but have changed to using robots I created using EA Studio. I will either use Prop firm robots or my own robots going forward based upon which ones I think will do better. Over the last few weeks I have not been updating the robots on a daily basis but changed to updating them on a weekly basis. Statistics show this challenge has 4.0% monthly return on average over the last 40 days. Based upon these stats I should be able to complete the one step challenge and get funded in approximately one more month.

Ok! I know they have been adding improved security to the website. I had to verify my email which is part of improved security. Did you have to do that? You should get an email to verify your email address. If not, there should be a link to resend verification email.

Hi junjieshao,
Express Generator is an add-on to EA Studio and as such it is necessary to purchase EA Studio before purchasing Express Generator. Having said that, I recommend first learning how to use EA Studio before learning how to use Express Generator. I have put together a process to follow to start learning how to use EA Studio at no cost. Click on the following link to start your learning journey:

FXIFY 50K One Step Challenge
In the FXblue Stats below I am showing the trailing 7 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. In this challenge I am using the Prop Firm app robots. I am selecting the robots on a daily basis as necessary using the one week top 3 or 4 robots. Statistics show this challenge gains 4.5% per week. Based upon these stats I should be able to complete the one step challenge and get funded in the next week or two.
Alan,
Note: Do not start the free trial of EA Studio until you have followed the step by step teaching method of “EA Studio How To”.
Alan,
Have you been looking for a profitable method of trading Expert Advisors? If so, then I recommend following the method I used in trading Expert Advisors that lead to a funded Infinity Forex Fund account.
Also, have you been wondering if EA Studio is worth the investment. In my opinion YES! I used EA Studio to create the Expert Advisors used in the Infinity Forex Fund Challenge that lead to a funded account.
Did you know you do not need to purchase EA Studio before you learn how to use it? I have devised a step by step teaching method in learning how to use EA Studio. In this teaching method you will learn in detail how to use EA Studio, you will also be able to create some Expert Advisors and test them in a demo account, all before you purchase EA Studio. Once you have learned how to use EA Studio and have created some Expert Advisors and tested them in a demo account then you can decide if EA Studio is for you. To follow my step by step method in learning EA Studio, creating Expert Advisors and testing them in a demo account click on the this link: EA Studio How To

Dear Traders,
I am currently testing all the Prop Firm robots on my FXIFY 10K Challenge. The purpose of the test is to find which robots perform best using the FXIFY historical data. During the test all robots will have a 0.01 lot size.
The following link will take you to the FXblue app where you can follow along with the test.
To follow along with the test you can click on the Overview tab, then select the Orders tab, and then select Open orders tab and then select Open orders or Closed orders.
You can also look at the Closed orders by clicking on the Stats tab and then clicking the Symbols tab. Here the can sort the symbols by selecting the Net profit tab to find the most profitable EA’s to trade.

Hi Peter,
Not all robots are profitable. If it were that easy all we would have to do is stick a robot on the chart and we would all get rich. Trading doesn’t work like that whether you are manually trading or using Expert Advisors. Now lets talk about the Top 10 EAs. These EAs are live traded and if you will look at theY5 time frame you will see they all been profitable. However, as the EA traded in a profiable direction over the last 5 years notice the little periods where the balance line moved downward but they later continued to move back upward again. Now look at the W1 chart. These are the same EAs but now we have zoomed in on what is happening over the last week. As can be seen, some of the EAs are moving in a downward direction. This is the newest little downward bump if we could see it clearly on the Y5 chart at the right edge of the chart. This does not mean these EAs are not profitable. They are just going through a short draw down period. Once the draw down period has ended these EAs will start to move higher again. However, life is not perfect. Once in a while we will see an EA continue to start to makeI larger draw downs than normal. When this happens the EA is replaced. Now lets talk about the normal drawdowns which we are most likely seeing the W1 charts. Most likely these drawdowns are normal and the EA will most likely start to move higher again. However, we cannot predict the future 100%. So why stay in a drawdown thinking it will eventually turn back upward and the profits will resume like they have been doing for the last five years? What is something has changed and the drawdown continues and we end up will larger losses. We don’t want to do that. So the solution is to stop trading the EAs that have started to drawdown and replace them with EAs that are current making profits (balance line moving upward). Does this make sense? This is what we do as traders to try and control risk.
