Hi Soeren,You can see the monthly performance in the summary at the bottom. Although the percentage figures are nonsense because I think MyFxBook are calculating from the backtest starting equity rather than the months starting equity you will see that since the beginning of 2007 on this pair there have been only two losing months.The strategy actually performs better in the recent past due to higher volatility in the markets.Steve

This is Behemoth compounded with 5% risk.Well, I say 5% risk. The lots maxed out and from then on it is fixed lot sizes of 99,999 lots.Yes, I realise that this is a preposterous lot size but there is really no other way to try and see what the compounding result is. I realise that the modelling quality - which is caused by using fixed range bars - means that the strategy will only prove itself in live trading and I have already put it live.

My guess is that this is some form of martingale system.The percentage won and the average per win/average per loss don't stack up otherwise.

Development on this is actually shelved at the moment while I work on Behemoth.So little time, so many trading ideas!I am running a forward test of the alpha version on MB Trading just to see how it works out.

Excellent work on making this available.A couple of small issues.One, I seem to have the same graph for all my systems on the home screen and it doesn't match any of them I don't think.Secondly, would it be possible to have the percentage gain on the home screen as well, just as an initial quick queck?Thanks again for doing this. I've just got my new iPhone so it's been well timed.

Thanks for your comments.I have already put this EA on a live account. It is unlikely I will sell it, although I may run managed accounts with it.

Thanks for the mention Elkart.Cast Iron Man is my daily breakout strategy. Currently not performing too well.This is a new EA and I will only start managing with this once it has proved itself live.

Oh I'm easy, beer, wine, spirits.I'm just going to clear up now, that I don't actually need to borrow $150. I wasn't canvassing for money ( although maybe I should now! ).I was just making the point that the account started with only $150 and then got up to $80 billion in 10 or so years.I've already put this EA ( even in it's alpha state ) on a live account. If it works as anticipated then I'll think about running managed accounts with it somewhere at some point in the future.

You need to be careful with that as well. My own system is showing as at least one year old and yet it isn't, but the account was an account I used for something else previously and I now have a custom date filter on it. So not all accounts that show up as a year old will necessarily be one year old

I've already put the "official" settings on a small live account with minimum risk, even though the EA is still at alpha stage.Thanks for the offer though Elkart, much appreciated!

It appears that a strategy tester arms race has commenced in the strategy section and I realise I am one of the superpowers involved! So my apologies for that.I think it would be good to set some rules for strategy tests to make the top ten, else they don't get in there.Such as:Backtests must start on the first day of MT4 data.Backtests must start with $10,000 capitalBacktests must use a fixed lot size of 1 standard lot.I realise that this will make Martingale strategies ineligible but as most of them blow up on a ten year backtest this shouldn't be an issue.Be good to hear other peopl...

I wouldn't run this on a live account, I wouldn't know what to do with all the money.Seriously. This was run with an overly aggressive 7% risk, in fact at the start it was possibly even higher than that. It was also ran on weekend spreads ( about 5 pips on EurJpy ), which just goes to show the strength of the underlying trading algorithym.It uses different settings of the alpha build of Behemoth and the trading frequency is also way too high. There is also a horrible period of drawdown in the middle somewhere, you can't see it on this chart.

Why don't you put in a news filter, there are plenty of them around?Additionally, why don't you put it on a live account? The days of marketing EA's from backtests and demo accounts is over.

Why is it nonsense?His trades aren't showing a stop loss. So depending on how the system works it's conceivable that most trades are being allowed to come back into profit before being closed. Not how I would trade but some people do trade like that. There are traders on here with a 100% hit rate, again not using a stop loss and again, not how I would trade but it is possible if you're prepared for the drawdown and the obvious chance that one day you will get it wrong.
