I agree. It does show that changing things is never good. However, they do market this as making so much money, and using a higher risk level of 38%, so it seemed fair to put them to the test.

The conservative settings were not making any money at all, and to me that's a bigger failure.

Do you mean that higher RL increases the probability that MD will trade? I think that it only uses it for calculating the position size and stoplosses...

In my case conservative settings were making money, but they are a far cry from what MD marketing team claims... This would be a couple percent a month + frayed nerves when trades were opened against the trend that woke in the Japanese session ;-)

Frankly speaking, I am not too fond of FXCBS. The last two trades on my account with them were losses: http://jbfxcbs.mt4stats.com/ . If you are to go with an ECN broker , I'd say ATCBrokers.com would be a much better choice (you can view my account with them at http://apatc50.mt4stats.com). Another good pick (even though it's not ECN) would be Alpari UK (see my demo at http://jacobalpari.mt4stats.com).

Same as with all other brokers. 0.1 risk level, default settings.

I was pleased to discover that MegaDroid fully recovered my account with ATCBrokers.com from the losing trade it took and moved on with profitable trades: http://apatc50.mt4stats.com/ . Weird enough, none of these trades took place on my FXCBS account, so I am now thinking of getting rid of it and keeping only the ATCBrokers one.

Pipbuster,

Recovered OK but a demo account does not mean much if anything, open a $200 account and then you will really know what it is worth.
