Got it right. Seems Pepperstone does offer quite a bit of data. But now wondering. The example video excludes spreads and commission (because it was recorded over the weekend). Should we also exclude it?
Hi everyone. Busy with a trial of EA Studio. Trying to get the historical data from my broker. Does it matter that it is a demo account (Pepperstone MT5).
Anyway, the script, once placed in the data folder, does not show in the MT5 interface (but it is in the folder). Refreshed but nothing happens. Closed MT5 and reopened but nothing.
Some pointers would be appreciated.
Hey community.
Posting as part of Lesson 5 for the ’21 Day Program.’
Positive experience with all lessons and appreciate the value Petko and team offer.
EA/bot trading is soooo interesting.
Have most of the bots we have access to in the course open in demo accounts and some on live accounts. On the live accounts I only have those that seem to be doing okay. Even on the formal Top10 App for the EURUSD it seems to be struggling a bit in current market conditions. The USDJPY and some of EURJPY seems to also not be doing great.
The EURGBP’s were doing just fine. (I enjoy how we can see the strategies behind the bots).
Recent bots include the Gold. Not sure how to come up with my own Gold strategies to compete with Petko (that lesson is a bit unclear).
All things considered (all bots together) currently runs on a profit of $100, starting 10 days ago with demo $500.
Initially some hefty drawdown, but must also say that it was by accident that I used 0.1 lots instead of 0.01 (considering the small account size).
My demo acc is with Pepperstone on a 400:1 leverage.
Looking forward to the rest of course and hope to become a net positive funded trader.
