A buddy of mine asked me to test a new EA that was just finished called Heikenizer. It trades the EURUSD pair on an H1 chart.

I have added it to my demo account.

I just removed The Channel Scalper EA from my demo account. It has proven itself worthy and I have it trading on my live account.

I am also getting a lot of crashes on my demo MetaTrader with 11 charts in use.

It was a terrible month trading my live account (worst month ever). With the force close of all Robominer trades, I lost a ton. The good news is that since March 3rd (the day that I had to force close all of the Robominer trades), I have made back over 16% in equity. Results:

It was a crazy month trading my demo account. First, I had a large loss when I did a force close of all Robominer trades. But I ended up making almost 90% profit in the month mostly due to The Channel Scalper, Primeval-EA hedging pair (GBPUSD) and a new EA from my friend called Heikenizer. Results:

It was a very active and profitable week trading my demo account. Heikenizer put in a strong performance and it was the best performer this week. The best Primeval-EA scalping pair was USDCAD. The hedging pair (GBPUSD) continues to be the best Primeval-EA strategy. Results:

I just purchased FxproDroid. I set it up on my live account at 10%.

I still have to figure out how I am going to classify the trades in terms of the magic number. Since FxproDroid is not really an EA in the traditional sense and it lacks any way to set a magic number, I will have to wait and see.

It was a very good week trading my live account. The Channel Scalper closed a set of three trades when the market opened for the week gap down. Instead of the usual 4 pips profit per trade, the EA closed with 37.1 pips per trade which resulted with a very handsome profit. Results:

I have made the following changes to my trading accounts.

Live Account:
I have removed EB-Turbo. Lately EB-Turbo has been very quiet. I was also concerned about the inevitable large loss.

Demo Account:
I have removed all of the Primeval-EA charts. At the month mark, Primeval-EA (scalping paris) was a loser both in pips and in dollars. I have asked for a refund of this EA.

After last week's amazing large profit upon market open of my live account, it looks like I will loose most of that on this week's open. The EURGBP just opened gap higher. If this trade does hit the hard stop, it will be The Channel Scalper's first loss.

I just put two new EA's on my demo account.

1. RSI Expert M1-M5 from tradingsystemforex.com
2. Caliber FX Pro that I am testing for someone else.

Please refer to the reviews of these two new EA's.

Rick

I made the following changes to my demo account:

1. I removed RSI Expert M1-M5. Refer to the RSI Expert M1-M5 review for details.

2. I am concerned about the losses with Heikenizer. It is over 6K in the red but has positive pips. This tells me that the losing lot size is much bigger than the winning lot size. I have decided to go with a fixed lot size for now. I have set the lot size at 0.10 (one mini). This is probably too small but I want to test my theory first.
