I am testing the EA in an FTMO demo account.
If you are using MT4 then you need to use EURUSD M1 FTMO Filter M30.mq4.
If you are using MT5 then you need to use EURUSD M1 FTMO Filter M30.mq5 (EURUSD M1 FTMO Filter M30).
With MT5 you need to go to the Editor. Then you need to click on the robot so you can see the source code. Then you need to click on the Compile button in the tool bar. You should now see the robot in the Navigator view.
The following is from a demo account on trading.com using the MT5 Strategy Tester. I can’t use the FTMO demo account right now because I have a 10K demo account with FTMO currently running using MT4. The first chart shows the dates when trades were taken. Notice that it does not take trades every day. The last trade was taken on 8/16. The second chart shows the profit so far this month. The account started the month of August with $200,000. Chart shows profit of $6771.06 so far for the month.
I would expect the FTMO robot to take another trade within the next day or two. Patience!
I would suggest you do a similar backtest to make sure everything is working correctly. The following are the settings I used:
Please refresh EA Studio with Ctrl+F5 to be sure you have the latest version. It must be v23.8.16. EA Studio should now work correctly!
The problem is partially fixed. You can upload your brokers data and generate strategies. However, if you refresh or log out you will have to upload your brokers data again.
Thanks for bringing this up. I can’t even navigate to the data file in EA Studio so I can look at my brokers data. I will look into this!
In my messages of August 9 I showed recommended lot sizes based on account balance. I also noted the FTMO EA was moving sideways over a large trading range from about June 1 forward. I then suggested demo trading FTMO until it started to show steady profits again before going live.
Yes, same start date and the same end date.
What version of Express Generator are you using. I am using V 2.45.
I have closed and opened EA Studio, I have imported the collection multiple times, and I have tried everything I can think of but I get the same result. When I create a collection in EA Studio, export it, and then upload it as I have shown above, and then followed this same process, everything works correctly. But, when I upload a collection from Express Generator I get this bad result.
