What is also strange is the fact the every time I click start, the program collects data and downloads about 300kb What do you think is possible problems? |

Fallacies, Part 1: Money Management is Secondary and Not Very Important The first demonstration of testing results of a strategy based on 0.1 lot is becoming a standard de facto in the Forum. Having received "not so bad" from professionals, a beginner sees that "0.1" testing brings rather modest results and decides to introduce an aggressive money management thinking that positive mathematic expectation automatically provides positive results. Let's see what results can be achieved. Together with that we will try to construct several artificial balance graphs that are very instructive. |

I think the key here is where you start the first trade. His trade started at 1.
8750. So he was lucky to hit his take profit target.
When I ran it on my tester. It started at 1.8762 for some reason and failed to hit the target. The result was some -2500 loss because t/p target was not hit. I lowered t/p traget to 120 and got 2 similar trades as in championship. So these 8 pips really made a difference between 1st place and bust. I am not sure this strategy will hold water in the long run. I am not sure why tester starts from different point. You might run a visual mode and take a closer look. |
