Does anyone have an EA that produces CONSISTENT profits?

Trying to figure out what this indicator is looking for.

Hey folks, I've found an indicator that probably deserves to be turned into an EA. It's under the Code Base as "ZigZag.mq4" but I'll repost it here for easiness of laziness ;) On anything higher than an hourly chart (M30 or less is no good), this thing seems to be hyper-intelligent at picking

Need Help Developing an EA
