I have been trading now for some years but am still looking for " The Holy Grail " of trading.
It is a hobby more than a job.

Well I am surviving the Covid virus so far.
I hope everybody else can say the same.

After years of trading and testing EAs I have put together an EA that I hope can be coded up.
The bottom line is to be profitable.

I used a modified BG Grid for the first time last week. Started with a balance of 377 and finished week at 434.24, equity of 369 and ended at 347.13. So a mixed result.

I have found a better EA at last. I have system tested 100s. Some don't work but mostly make bad losses. I have recently bought one called BG Grid. It has possibilities I think. I will let you know how I get on. On demo it looks good, but beware drawdowns. Have to watch it.

I am also checking out a new and well recommended indicator called Ultimate4trading.com In one day I started with $500 and ended the day with $7,600 ! Not bad eh ? OK so it was only a demo account but even so. I will try it with real money soon and let you know how I get on.

Currently I am checking out MarketFXGen robot. The cost is high and the DD is also high. Anyone know about this robot or better still a really good one ?

Profitable EA
Hi I have been through all the free EAs and not found one that is profitable. The Macd sample one that comes with MT5 and MT4 is the nearest. I then turn to the paid for EAs. There are lots. The strategy tester is a very poor instrument for testing
