I did some testing and optimization over the past month of data. MaxTrades=10 and Signal_Count 5-50. the numbers were pretty consistent regarding signal count, but each increase reduced the number of trades. Sometimes the drawdown dropped significantly.
With the same signal settings, but in mode3, the system performed in 9th out of 10 places or 11th out of 10 places. I will attach the optimization results shortly.
Personally, I like the idea of 20 signal_count and 10 maxtrades very much, and will likely use that trading style for PhoenixFund as soon as it can trade. (Sending another 30 pages to FXDD. One IB member submitted already.)

http://sababafx.com/ft/statement.htmHow did you set the live statement ? I did try and FXDD does not allow it for demo and, apparently, only possible for funded live accounts.
Thank you in advance for your comments !

Many thanks ! The problem was that I was not using the right account number in the "Publisher" settings !!! Too many accounts... I will know for sure Monday when my hosting company opens.

Hello all,
Demo #0:
Even though the account suffered a huge drawdown past Thursday, Phoenix did
surprisingly good for this past week of trading. Despite a net-loss of -$385
the account gained +156 pips overall. I am up 73% since November and this is
beyond dreams!
It's all different for my Demo#1. An overall gain of +487pips and still a weekly
loss of -$2656.20. Ouch! Despite the same parameters as for account #0, the
trading pattern was quite off.
Demo#2 - Could have been worse. Without the losses from Thursday this account
could be back on it's way and finally recover the set-back from week #2.

AZBOfinSuperb home work AZBO !
Pls test FXDD...
I have one FXDD and one IBFX demo accounts... The results are quite different... Globally FXDD +25 % in one month (that's for me an excellent result) and IBFX down of 50 %..
Last week IBFX was stuck at -35 without any mouvement all the week...
For sure same settings both (TF, mode, inside settings etc...)
If you open and account in FXDD it will automatically open a new file (FXDD-Metrader) in your program file not hurting your another(s) program(s) file(s) of Metatrader (Metratrader 4) to store al the Meta files

Well for now... nice weather to day, 28 C, windy(14 knots for now)... Let's go windsurfing...
NB I have nothing to do with these two brookers !!!!! If to morrow FXDD is splashing down I will say exactly the contrary of to day !!!!
Superb home work AZBO !

mode3 for the 4 majors.
it's going to be quite interesting. as you have mentioned many times: it all depends when the EA starts trading. if it catches a bad move, i'll carry it thru for a long time and might never recover.

here in phoenix, arizona, last night we had the coldest night since 1990. a few degrees below freezing point is very unusual and it's todays top topic in the news.

AZBOfinThe optimization and testing patterns I listed on the settings thread would have the systems more in sync. MaxTrades =10, SignalCount=20. The simultaneous trades is rarely over 2 according to the quick glance I gave the test results, but there aren't any missed "good trades". The systems would appear to make the same trades more often, and results should be more consistent week to week (about 3-5 times the number of trades occur).
