I wanted to ask about this also but in more detail.
If we have 1 VPS, and we have been making 6 demo accounts, I am not sure I understand how to run all demo accounts at once on the VPS. using MT5 while you have all your accounts in the navigator window, you can only be logged into 1 of them at a time in the terminal of mt5, so how are we able to have multiple instances of MT5 running? Currently i have 20 bots testing on 1 of my demo accounts. Can I test with 40 or more bots running? Is that too much for the system or for the instance of mt5 to handle?
I just tidied up my email box and noticed that we don’t get an email every day in regards to the 21 day program. Is that right? or did I miss getting emails.
days 1-5, missed 6, day 7, missed 8 9, day 10, missed 11,12, day 13, missed 14 now on day 15
Didn’t help. Please see screenshot.
You can see the calculated was 53674. The time ran was 8hours 20 minutes. Not 1 collection
I used data that I exported per the course.
Also, looking around I saw that the ea trading academy is like an affiliate of this site?
https://www.forexrobotacademy.com/expert-advisor-generator/
This site is exactly the same here. So what’s going on?
@danielo. Look at your take profit, they are at -% profit, meaning you will never get a strategy. I just looked at mine and worked that out. I have to say this is not the greatest course. While it is free, it lacks real intention to detail and teaching, especially when they expect you to spend over $1000 euros to buy the generator. I would hope that this course is updated because there are way too many holes in it to be a really successful course.
@petco
IO have had this problem also, with ETH and BCH. I have downloaded data from eightcap live and used that, I have just removed the 2 options you suggested up here, but that nullifies the course information then.
The settings look a little different now for ea studio. On the video there are just 2 checkboxes for the settings, start backtest from 100 and close the position at the end of the backtest.
Now there is a dropdown. See screenshot.
A few questions.
1. Why only 100 bars back to start the backtest? 100 15 min bars is only 6hours of backtesting. Shouldn’t we be backtesting further or am I misunderstanding something?
Well I only ask because it isn’t brought up in any of the vidoes so far. So I am just wondering if that vps is a good one or not? It is certainly cheaper than the ones you guys have recommended
I have had BTC running nearly 2 days now, not 1 trade.
I also have the gold updated robots It has been running for over 8 hours, no trades which is very rare for gold and the backtesting I have done.
Also, why are the pip counts and stop losses for gold so high? 6000 pips for gold? that is over $60 movement, which you can see from this screenshot is not something that happens on the 15 minute chart so often, nor does it happen on the 1hr chart.
Allan, none of those answers address the issue. There is a native mac application, which I am using and stated above. I am not and will not be using parrallels to run windows and then run MT5 when there is a software available.
There is another issue at play here, I have been trading with MT5 on my mac for over a year now without using these things that the EA’s are talking about. I am just getting into those, but there should be absolutely no difference with the way that the platform runs the software, and by opening up the data folder and pasting in those files, they should compile. However they don’t. I have found the work around for the ea’s, but for the data extraction there is nothing yet. The file does compile, at least it says it does, but nothing shows up to drag onto the asset to get data
OxBitpool, how would a VPS affect this?
no unfortunately. I redownloaded but not the data window has the same look as a pc, and i am on a mac. As you can see in the screenshot the file is downloaded into the correct folder, but it does not appear in the navigator.
I have just started this course, but came across the same issue with the bots that I purchased for gold and BTC>
The information given to execute for MT5 is that you download, open the data folder, copy the bots into the folder, then you close MT5 and reopen it and they will compile. This is not true. I had to manually compile them before they showed up in the EA’s tree o the left in the navigator.
Secondly, in this course Petko says the same thing about downloading hte script. The script is downloaded and copied into the folder per the direction, but closing and opening MT5 does not compile the script. I hit compile on the downloaded script, it also compiled but it is still not available.
If you are making us pay fo
r courses and or bots, the information needs to be accurate and updated.
