I understand: you re-named the files' statement.

Statement for Firebird EA is named as StepMAExpert.

And statement for StepMAExpert was named as Firebird.

StepMAExpert_v1.45 did since 10th of December till now the following trades:

Fibo Group - one trade only:

Alpari (one trade as well):

No, I've checked. They are the correct way around

Yes, that trade is in the list ... with the others, except it closed at 01:02 1.9530

 

This StepMAExpert_v1.45 was designed to trade about one time per week. And this EA can not trade many times per day (4 or 5 times per day).

Phisically impossible:

it was 5 orders in 11th of December, 8 orders in 8ht of December ...

It seems that StepMAExpert_v1.45 is trading more often than Firebird: 5 or 8 trades per day in one pair? Phisically impossible. I can not help, sorry.

Something wrong with settings.

It should be about one trade per week.

 

i've had the same issue Futuremillionaire... I've tested many many EAs that backtest beautifully but lose when you demo it, or lose more when you go live with it. Just the nature of the beasts I suppose.

I agree with you because i am trader as well.

But 8 trades per day with StepMAExpert_v1.45 ...

It is impossible.

Usually 1 trade per week or zero trades in a week.

I understand that this EA is performing differently with different brokers (as all Step EAs). But not like scalper.

I think Igorad should look at this EA: may be some bug.

Just imagine that this Alpari UK is using very different data from Russian Alpari: Alpari UK is using IBFX and I am using Russian Alpari. I don't know exactly but let' say that. So even in this case I think this 8 trades per day is too many.

I think it may be different settings, or it is the bug in EA.

Well, this is what I'm using .. but I can't remember where I got it from now. (Certainly somewhere on this forum)

Files:
 

Ah... my presets didn't upload.....be right back!

 

It doesn't seem to like *.set files ... so I zipped it.

I am using those files.

Are you sure they are exactly the same?

They can't be ... or we'd be getting identical results
