ModeratorHi, check out this video for how to use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOwuGnuiBdU&pp=ygUNcHJvcCBmaXJtIGFwcA%3D%3D
Alternatively I put together what I believe is a good outline of an alternative method to profit using the propfirm and top 10 apps here: https://platform.algotradingspace.com/forums/topic/method-for-profiting-with-top-10-and-prop-firm-app/#post-465905
Let me know if you have any questions 🙂

ModeratorI believe that we have also had some recent issues with fxblue and that they are aware and working on fixing this as soon as possible.

ModeratorCan I ask what the requirement for a non-swing account is? Do you really need more than 1:30 leverage? I have passed MANY prop firm challenges using EA Studio as shown here: https://platform.algotradingspace.com/forums/topic/many-prop-firm-challenges-passed-with-ea-studio/
I always choose swing accounts and never pay any attention to news at all. I suppose it depends on the system that you are trading but the strategies behind the prop firm app have shown in the back test that they do not require news turned off and its just an option.
I guess my main question to EA System is why do you need more than 1:30 leverage? Other than that suggestion for additional slickness are sensible, we will consider implementing 🙂
Samuel Jackson
ModeratorYes they are all M5 systems and need to be traded on that timeframe.
Samuel Jackson
ModeratorUnderstandable, currently the only option would be to close positions manually around the news.

ModeratorHi, you will need access to a computer in some form to be able to trade EAs. As a minimum you would need a cheap VPS such as the one from contabo which starts at 5.36 Euros a month and a cheap laptop that can login. Powerful expensive computers would not be required to run the EAs from the app. Even a chromebook would do so you can login to your vps. And minimum deposit depends on your broker but typical 200 dollars would be the minimum

ModeratorHi, I responded here: https://platform.algotradingspace.com/forums/topic/prop-firm-eas-access-issues
Samuel Jackson
ModeratorHi, that is a good suggestion. News can unfortunately affect things and we just avoid opening new trades around the news. The problem with what you have suggested is that it would make accurate backtesting a problem. Also as currently the backtest will capture this behaviour accurately, with a good backtest it will show that over the long term the news spikes are not causiing a problem even if on occasion they can cause a loss.

ModeratorHi Epien, I am unsure why this isn’t working. BUT I have been using EA Studio for many years (Please see this for further information on results: https://platform.algotradingspace.com/forums/topic/many-prop-firm-challenges-passed-with-ea-studio/)
And I personally just use the inbuilt premium data to generate in EA studio as it is the best and has dynamic spreads included.
For simplicity I would recommend generating with the Premium data in EAS, then checking on one of the other inbuilt data sources such as darwinex or blackbull and then finally before trading perform a full tick backtest on the EA in Mt5 on your selected broker.
Spreads and commission should be used when backtesting and these will be included automatically inthe MT5 backtester at the end but should be input in EAS. If you need further help then just reach out 🙂

ModeratorHi, for the course the top5 EAs are replaced monthly and so there is no need to buy again, just download the new ones each month. As to first question, how long have they been running for, they will run on any account and do not require any license or other such hurdle. It could just be that they need more time to find an entry.
Also in finding good results I have put up two recent threads that may assist:
Hope these are helpful and feel free to ask any more questions.
Cheers,
Sam

ModeratorHi Phuong, just keep working through and asking questions and you will get there! Consistency is key, we all have different commitments and structures in our life, just gotta keep chipping away at learning a practicing.

ModeratorHi Harraf, can you please email [email protected] to confirm but I am pretty sure that coupon has expired.
There is however a big promotion at the moment using SUMMER30 see here for details https://platform.algotradingspace.com/summer-sale/
Samuel Jackson
ModeratorHey Alesemo, yes thats a great start. Less is okay though, you just need a few trading at a time. If you get up to 10 then great but 3 is fine too. Also great to hear about results after a few weeks but also remember that a few months performance is much more important and really even what the max stagnation is for the strategies too.
Samuel Jackson
ModeratorCan you please clarify what you mean by EA prop? Do you mean the Prop Robots App?
