ParticipantHey Van, no one needs to listen to me π I just share my experience in the courses and in all the videos I record. Of course, I did most of the mistakes as a beginner trader, but I learnt quickly from them. Anyway, I am happy that my advises are in help.

ParticipantPetko, your pieces of advice are treasure! I am profiting in the last months because of you.

MemberHey Roman, mine was just fine. I am 12% up totally in my 3 live accounts which is just great. Small risk and stress free. How was yours?
Petko Aleksandrov
ParticipantIt was an extreme month for me. I did fantastic for the first 10 days. After that, I increased a bit the lots, hit another 15%, then a small loss about 4%, but at the end, I am totally up with 22,7% which is just great for me.

ParticipantIt makes me very happy that you guys make profits. Keep up the good work, steady, strong money management and very strict when selecting which EAs to trade.
Petko Aleksandrov
ParticipantHey Petko, the profits personally I do recently are because of you! What you teach in the courses is so useful, and I have a whole book now where I write notes, and I do my best to follow it all! Thank you for all!

ParticipantHello Bob,
It makes me happy that my courses helped you in your trading. When I hear such words, this gives me a lot more energy to continue recording new courses and share my trading strategies.

ParticipantHello Roman,
I am Slavi, and I am new to the Forum and the Academy. It is a really great place to learn algorithmic trading without IT experience by the way π
What you share is very interesting, I will try to learn from your mistakes, and from the mistakes of the others. I am sure I will have some, it is impossible to go perfect… anyway thanks for sharing.
Have a great day!

ParticipantHello Deenslavi!
Glad to have you in the Forum. It is great that people share their experience here. This is how everyone gets better.
It is the most important thing to learn from mistakes and probably the most difficult for everyone.

ParticipantHello all,
I have been in the Forum for about 2 years, and I trade actively with the EAs from Petko and the EAs I created my self. I want to share one thing that I concluded recently, and I hope it will be useful to many of you.
I had experience in trading before getting into algorithmic trading, and I was spending a lot of time in each strategy I used. Especially while I am using FSB Pro. I worked on each strategy with hours, to improve the entry and exit rules, to add some indicators and so on. The thing that Petko shows in the last courses is actually different, and I accepted that idea of trading.
It is not really the case to concentrate on each strategy and expert. It is more about generating robust strategies that pass all the robust tests. He says that he does not look at the strategies’ indicators and parameters at all. That was the hardest for me π However, the last few months I just generate EAs and place them for test on Demo, and then straight to the live. It turned out that this way I spend 3 times less on the computer and I got even better results.

Participant@Andi, you mentioned,
“… I just generate EAs and place them for test on Demo, and then straight to the live.”
I’m curious, what criteria does a strategy have to pass in the testing phase for them to get promoted to live?
Petko Aleksandrov
ParticipantHello Traderaw19,
there is actually a topic where you can see what acceptance criteria the guys use. Might be useful to you:
