10 pareis V.4This October is the first month since 2006 which will end negativ, as it seems. Can you confirm this?
Sorry when started the accountYes all 10 pairs and V4
Yes, it's a negative month, and we hate to say it, but we can't deny curve fitting possibility and it's a nightmare for any EA developers.This October is the first month since 2006 which will end negativ, as it seems. Can you confirm this?
Bad news . There’s big questions on the way why and Howe come negitev month from 2007 with 10 pariesIt does not Matter. Tests shows that oktober is negative also if you started all 10 pairs long time before. If you started at 01.10. it is "only" more negative"

Yes, it's a negative month, and we hate to say it, but we can't deny curve fitting possibility and it's a nightmare for any EA developers.
We do what we can to minimize curvefitting, such as :
1. The EA only trade using open price method, not every tick, to make the backtesting process easier
2. It's backtested with quite long historical data since 2007,
3. It's backtested in bad trading environment with 17 pips (not points) spread and $3 commission,
4. It only use standard mt4 indicators,
5. We focus on stagnation and SQN, so the OOS period result is still similar to In sample period,
6. We're hesitant to use trailing stop because we're afraid it could drive us to further curve fitting,
7. We don't fully optimize the strategy, just partially.
Unfortunately even after doing all of the things above, the only method to know that your strategy is curve fitted or not is by throwing it in a live trading environment.
And here are some of our plan in the future :
1. We're gonna use longer historical data from 2003 to verify the result,
2. We're gonna use less indicator, we banned some indicators that have wide parameter such as ATR and Momentum,
3. We also plan to start a blog where we'll upload the updates on that blog instead of this thread. However we'll still give support to some members via PM.
Please excuse the EA it's still far far far from perfect.
Best regards.

Please, how do you do for backtest the 10 pairs at the same time ? ThanksI can tell you this, but which benefit would you have from this? Next month could be totally different again. 1 Month means nothing for a single pair with this type of EA. In the long run on backtest every pair is positive and makes good profit.
V.4 10 parries real or demoYes 2 week
Which V v2.00 or v4.00 or mixed ? THXhttps://www.myfxbook.com/portfolio/atp-portfolio-xm-micro/2701520
I'm testing on XM real micro acc. nearly 2 months, set fixed lot trade 7 pairs, at the moment EURUSD and EURJPY looking good result.

Thank you developers team.![]()
