Hi Alan, so when is this big update coming? It’s pretty confusing how right now some of the FTMO robots disappear in certain timeframes and only appear in higher ones.

Hi Alan, ok thanks. Do we get an email about this so we are aware of when the upgrade happens?

Hi Alan,

Thanks for checking on that. Do let me know.

Right, I am aware that the backtesting is not done using FTMO and that the data and results can change from one broker to another, I have seen this myself. This is why I have been testing the robots myself on an FTMO demo account to determine which are performing better (following your approach with your EA Studio robots, great work there!)

Hi Alan,

Maybe I’m not explaining myself correctly, let me rephrase. You said that Petko has reduced the FTMO robots to 12 pairs. In the Y5 page there are 12 pairs, so I’m guessing those are the 12. But if I drill down into the other time frames (weekly, daily, etc)  there are other pairs aside from the 12 that show up in the Y5 page. So my question is, which are the 12 official EAs that we should use and which are the ones that have been removed that we should stop trading? Is USDCAD M5 v.61 one of the ones to avoid (does not appear in Y5 page). There is also a AUDCHF M5 v6.1 EA which does not show up in the Y5 (but does in the W1). can you please clarify this?

So the USDCAD M5 pair that appears under the W1 EA we should not use?

Hi Alan,

As far as I can tell not all the robots appear under Y5. I only see 12 EAs under Y5 and as I was under the impression that there are 14 in total. For instance I don’t see the USDCAD M5 EA under Y5 and there must be another one missing.

Hi @Alan

Yes I’m aware that I can change the magic number, that’s not the point. Why have the same default magic number for 2 different pairs when everything is tied to the magic number (the EA name, the filename, etc). Makes tracking the results very difficult. I’m continuously installing and moving the EAs around different accounts to test and see which are the better performers. Having to change the magic number every time I add it to a different account just adds one more thing to do that should be automatic.

Btw, is there a way to download all 14 EAs together? In the FTMO robots app I can only download the ones visible in each view (yearly, monthly, weekly, etc) but they don’t all appear together.

[superalf]

Hi, is there a reason why there are 2 of the prop firm EAs using the same magic number by default, the EURAUD M15 v6.0 EA and the AUDCHF M5 v6.1. It’s a bit confusing as it lumps their trades together when looking at the results on fxblue.
