Three losses... I only had one but it was a biggie at 56 pips on the, normally fairly stable, EURCHF. What currencies acted up on your account last night?

75-80% wins at 3:1...yah, right I wish we could find an EA like that. Especially one that is stable for more than one month.

I think I have a trading system that comes close. I have been testing it since Feb 11. So far it has produced 22 trades, 15 winners and 7 losers so it has produced 68.18% wins. The standard win is 100 pips and the standard loss is 60 pips so the risk/reward is 1.4:1
although there is also a time limit on each trade and the loss is not always 60 pips. The trading system is not an EA...yet.
