EvolutionX robot review - Page 11 - Pip Cop

I started it running on 30th. afternoon (gmt) and it made many trades.
It's on a demo account of $10000 using 0.1 as lot size. At one point

it showed
-$176 but eventually closed in profit. The 'bot made more trades later, always closing at a profit. I switched off mid-evening, I've no idea whether the 'bot "knows" that the day was friday and market would be closing shortly. (Not a good idea to have any open trades over the weekend.)

The alert message always recommends 2 decimal places for lots - I can make no sense of that.

What I've now done is to open another demo using $350 as the start amount,
a realistic amount for me now.
(I've not yet recovered from losing $54,000 in a failed co.!)

It may be that this ea is not suitable without 4 figures in the account.

...and always bear in mind that live trading is not the same as demo; slippage

for example. What you can say is that if an ea does not work on a demo account, then it will not work on a real one. The reverse is not necessarily true!

I see there's an Evolution VI. Where will it end and what happens when we get to Evolution IX

I close positions quite often on EvolutionX, and it starts opening new positions right away.
I just did it again, because system seemed to be stuck in a DD for two days without opening new positions. So I took a little hit in order to continue to make 5% to 10%/day..on a demo for now. To close positions I use an EA called 'Close everything', I just place it on any open chart, and it closes every open position

on the platform.

What happened now? EvolutionX went from first to last place and the Alpari Account Window is blank

Someone hasn't read the Review FAQ. The link is up top in orange and in my signature!

Ok, now that someone has read the FAQ, he has another question:
I am running EvolutionX and EvolutionX_mini on two different accounts.
EvolutionX looks like a $$ printing press, which gets stuck in a drawdown

sometimes, if for more than 24 hours, i just close all positions and the game goes on, upwards.
On the mini account with EvolutionX_mini I get stuck in a drawdown

constantly. There are quite a few more parameters. Also TradeBuy is set to 1, at EvulutionX it's set to 0.
Does anybody have an idea why this is so?

A bit later: I changed TradeBuy to 0, and it immediately closed open buys that had been open for 16 hours or so, and opened new buys. Curious to see how this one continues.
