Hey Animti,

Yes, it is better to wait a bit longer so you can see the results.

Also, you can set trading hours from EA Studio settings. Do not hesitate to experiment.

Hello Rana,

Can you give me some more information?

Did you open a Demo and a Live account with the same broker and you placed the EAs at the same time on both accounts or at a different time?

That is important to know.

Also, can you send me some screenshots in here?

Hello Marek,

I am glad to hear from you. To be honest, I used to believe the same – the more data, the better. But with the time, I saw that the generator is capable of finding robust strategies with many counts of trades, even if we use a small number of bars. And that is better for me.

We have more active strategies this way, and at the same time, we depend more on the recent data.

And of course, the generator works much faster 🙂

[Petko Aleksandrov]

That is great, Marin! Thank you!

Try not to make conclusions after a few trades or days.

Also, it is easy to see what happened but we never know when there will be volatility or not.

Each EA has its moment and its downs, but if you follow the results in FX Blue you will know when the EAs are in their profitable periods.

Hey Simon,

I think that the regulated brokers make enough money from the spread and they can not afford to lose their reputation by manipulating the trades.

However, I trade my live account together with a second live account with 0.01 with another broker just to make sure that I see the same trades…

<p style=”text-align: left;”>I use the option to add, but so far I did it equally and now I think to change the strategy.</p>
If I use 1 lot for the rest, I would start with 0.33 lots with the two EAs, so if they add 2 times, I will have no more than 1 lot in total.

Hello traders,

I have updated the Algorithmic Trading Strategies in 2020 + USDCAD EAs course with new 10 USDCAD EAs.

They were tested in the same way I show in the course, but I would suggest you try them on a Demo account first.

Have a great Sunday!

Hey Animti,

it really depends on the market, the asset, the strategy…

Sometimes you need to be flexible and act faster with some of the EAs, sometimes you need to wait a bit longer.

But, yeah, definitely testing the EAs for longer is not a bad thing. It does not mean that they will start to lose.

[Petko Aleksandrov]

Thanks, Asser! We do our best to improve it all.

By the end of the year, we will update all the courses as well – better audio, video, more trading examples, and resource files.

It is an ongoing process for us because we really want to improve more and more the experience of our students.

Hey Marek,

No, I meant something different.

If you use M15 for example, how many bars do you see in your Historical data?

Let’s say you use about 30 000 bars. The generator would work 2 times slower if you use 60 000. If you use 120 000 it will become 4 times slower.

Recently, I realized that there is no point in using more than 50 000 bars on any of the time frames.

When I use fewer bars the generator works much faster and the strategies are more active.

[Petko Aleksandrov]

Hey Marek,

Glad to hear from you. Actually EA Studio got faster…there was an update which made it much faster.

The reason it might get slower with you is if you use a huge Historical data.

How many bars do you use?

Hello traders!

The new course is live!

Algorithmic Trading Course for Beginners + 40 EAs

It is a great start for beginner traders because we have demonstrated the best practice when comparing different brokers.

That is indeed the most important for every trader.

Many traders use the right EAs and strategies but they end up losing because they chose a wrong broker with high spreads, commissions and swaps.

And in this course, you will see how different results you can get with the same EAs on different brokers.

I have recorded the course together with the new mentor in the team Ilan Vardy, and we will show you how to start trading from scratch.

This course brings a lot of value because we will be updating it every month with a new 40 EAs for EURUSD.

For our forum members, we have discounted the price with 75% in the first week.

Click here to enroll and we will see you inside the course.

[Petko Aleksandrov]

Yeah, I know but sometimes I have the feeling when it’s time for action! 🙂

However, you are right, I will reduce the lots in the next weeks and see how it goes.

Thanks again!

[Petko Aleksandrov]

Hey Petko,

when your account rises, which would you prefer – placing more EAs with the same lots or increasing the lots on the existing EAs?
