I have also had it running on my live forward demo account for about 3 days now and it has not opened any new trades at all. Maybe my settings are wrong or something like that, either way it is very frustrating to me .

Do you have the spread filter set at 5?

Depending on your broker and the pairs your trading you'll rarely see a spread under 5 during this EA's trading hours.

It does well on my demo accounts with a wider spread , but I wouldnt want to put it on a live account with a spread wider than the take profit level.

Yeah i know, i am just not sure about fapturbo, demo is great because of the tight spreads, on live the spreads are wider, which is no good. I have had it running over the last day or so on my demo account and it has had lots of small winners which is great, however the last trade was a big loss and that wiped out all my small profits.

If this keeps up then my demo account will get wiped out. The only way around this is to tighten my stop loss, however the version i am using does not have a stop loss part, so i am in a pickle it would seeem.

Also i do not have the option in my EA to change the spread , that part is not available. Well just logged into the members page of fapturbo and the version i have is not the latest, so just downloaded fapturbo36 and the spread option is there

Either way the live spreads are so much wider than the demo, will this EA still be profitable on live or not

Ok with that all said, i still have no option in the EA to change tmy stop or takeprofit, i have found the stop loss in the EA is far to wide, 1 loss will wipe out all the profits, how do i change my stop loss, anyone know!

Hi pipcop,
I have also been testing EUR/CHF on FAPT. Its got some pretty good results so far. Would you consider testing it as well? Plus the spread is 3 pips asian session.

I think I will. I've got a busy weekend coming up, but I will try to sneak it in before trading starts Sunday night.
