Are these your own custom EA's/System?

Drawdown seems high, unless that is your acceptable plan?

Hey Gil,

These charts were actually my beta test of my custom EAs, but i quickly realized they needed hedging capability and i also realized it was foolish to run them on Alpari US as they don't allow hedging (i can't get Alpari UK as they won't take US clients).

I have since done a lot of developing to my EAs and you will see some new charts with new brokers in a week or two. Very busy with other things right now. Thanks for your interest though.

Hey Gil, just a quick question,

You mentioned my EA having a notable draw down. What percentage DD are you seeing? I only have it at 18%. Do you consider this a big DD? I think anything under 25% is acceptable given the volatile nature of currency.

I believe Gil is talking about your floating loss which is ~36%.

Solar hit it on the head....

Just curious, sometimes people under-capitalize on purpose, others not... Just curious, I am not attacking you or criticizing you, but I like to see what people are doing. :)
