As I started with the randomness, let me drill some more on it. I think it is good for the reasons mentioned on the FAP Turbo test thread, it makes it possible to trade with this ea at all. Otherwise, slippage would erase all possible profits, taking into account that it profit target is just a couple of pips normally. If FAP Turbo legion of users orders are dispersed over night time, the chances that we will earn on price fluctuations is much bigger... What is evident from my several days of live trading with FAPT is that its earning curve is definitely less smooth than backtesting suggests. I wonder to what extent is this a result of curve optimization needed for marketing the ea...
