This EA requires a broker having Market Execution (ECN, NDD, STP accounts), low spread, zero StopLevel (or close to such level), no commission if possible (as it influences on the profit amount). Order executin time should be measured in milliseconds, not minutes, requotes and slippage should not happen too often.
Deposit: Minimum deposit is $50 (MinLot = 0.01) or $500 (MinLot = 0.1)
Recommended currency pairs: EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF, USDCAD

Fantastic concept that can turn $1,000 into over a million in 2 months in backtesting! When run on a live account, my broker told me to turn it off as it exceeds the maximum number of actions allowed by MetaTrader - 2,000 a day. This was making about 10,000 per instrument!!! 5 stars for the theory, zero for the practice.
