Hey Boback,
Glad to hear from you.
1. There could be a significant difference if you trade the smaller time frames as M1 and M5 (if your broker has some execution problems on a live account). That is why I use mostly M15 and H1. The difference in results could come when you move EAs from Demo to Live. You will need to give the EAs some time to synchronize.
2. Have a look at our FAQ section for some FIFO tips. But trading with Portfolio EAs will be the hardest to go around FIFO because the Portfolio EAs work on one asset and one time frame.
Let me know if there is anything else.
Hey Traders,
We just launched the BRAND-NEW Course!
It is called the Simple Bitcoin Trading Strategy Course + Bitcoin Robot Included
In this course, I shared a SUPER Simple Bitcoin Trading Strategy that I have been using for some time. And when I say ”SUPER Simple” I mean that it is simple indeed.
The strategy is suitable for complete beginners, and at the same time, it applies to any trading platform.
More, I included the Robot for the strategy, so if you wish to trade it automatically, you will have the freedom to do it.
By the end of the trading course, you will see live examples from the strategy, and it will become crystal clear to you.
The Course is Discounted for a limited time for all our Forum users.
Hey Amanda,
The best thing would be for you to perform a backtest on MetaTrader and see how the strategies behave with your broker.
The different brokers show different results and it is best to do it by yourself.
In the course, you will see how that works and if you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
Kind regards,
Hey Boback,
You do not need to update the code. Just from the inputs of the EA, when you drop it on the chart, leave it to 0.0 on the line how much to add as lots.
Hey traders,
We have just updated 3 out of the 5 Stock EAs.
Small changes on GOOG, TSLA, AAPL were done. FB and AMZN keep doing a great job with the initial parameters.
You can find the new EAs attached the the same lecture, and the changes you can find in the PDFs accordingly.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Kind regards,
Hey Boback,
Yes, I am afraid that you will have to remove the adding option so you can fit the FIFO rule…
Cheers,
Hey Steve,
You are doing a great job! I have been through all of that…I tested 1000s of EA on dozens of accounts. But the more I was adding, the more complicated it was.
So to make it simple, I started using the Validator in EA Studio and recalculating strategies over the new Historical data. This way, I do simulated Demo trading.
Not sure if you watched some of the videos where I explain it. For example, in the Last Month Top EAs course, I described it in lecture 6.3.
Regarding the live account, I try to keep it the very same as with the Demo. You said that you would consider an EA as a losing one if you ” it can never have more than X negative profit days in a row”. So why not follow the same in live? This way you will have the very same thing on Demo and Live.
If you make it stricter on live, you will miss some decent EAs performing well on your Demo, but you limit them more on the live…
Hey Ricardo,
For the moment that data is not available. I use Darwinex broker to get Historical data for stocks.

Hey mate,
In the top menu, when you click on Packages, the last one is Trading Robots:

Hi David,
The best thing would be to try them both simultaneously so you will see which one works best.
Just put 10 same EAs on 2 different Demo account, and apply the other EA in one of the accounts.
I can’t say which is better because I haven’t tested your option, and it’s hard to predict the outcome as it’s not possible to perform a backtest on the 10 EAs and the AP EA.
Let us know the results if you do the test.
Cheers.
Hey David,
Glad to hear from you. Actually, you can modify the Formula as you wish. The most important is to keep the ratio 1:3 (mid-zone:Take Profit).
I personally keep using the same levels as far as some of the brokers that I use have the spread below the $20. If it’s higher I do not use the formula.
Hope that helps.
Hey traders,
I hope everyone has a great week!
I just uploaded the new EAs for July.
Make sure to test all the EAs first on a Demo account.
Kind regards,

Hey there, The FX Blue EA works only on one chart in order to export the info. Here is a video about it:
Hey Rehman,
Glad to hear from you. Honestly, I do not know which brokers have issues with Pakistan and for what reason.
Did you try all the brokers we have in the trusted brokers page?
Hey Boback,
Glad to hear from you, and welcome to the Academy.
Yes, in US the brokers apply the FIFO rule.
If you trade one EA that opens one trade per signal, on one asset, you will not have issues.
If you wish to trade more EAs in the same account, you can check out the FAQ section for some tips.
