Buggy EA? I have some concerns over this EA. It could just be my environment, so I'd be interested to hear how other people get on.
Firstly, if I do a backtest starting from the 10th Nov. Then I get a bit of activity but nothing much. If I start it on the 11th, then there is consistent activity all the time. It does appear that this EA's behaviour is determined by the conditions at the point you start it. It could be that if you start it at the 'wrong' time, it won't do anything. In my forward test this EA has done nothing.
Secondly, I see many 4051 errors where it appears to be closing an invalid order. Since it does close many orders at a loss, it makes me wonder if these are errors or part of the algorithm. There's also an Order 131 error, incorrect volume right at the start.
I'm assuming that I've got the latest version, it's the one off his website, but without any version number in the code, then I'm not sure...
