EA Reviews

Judging by one of the emails I received after the previous post, there may be some confusion about the results I posted. Let me attempt to clear it up. The yearly percentage gains or losses posted in the “monthly method” post are the backtesting results using the aggressive preset and running Euro-Blaster one month at [...]

Ok, I have devised another way to trade the Euro-Blaster EA that you might be interested in. The idea is to still take advantage of the aggressive preset but not expose yourself to so much risk (i.e., losing your account in just a couple trades).
The key to this method is in closing all orders at [...]

Ok. So given what we discovered in the Alpari UK backtests and what we have seen for three weeks on the forward test, what is the verdict on Euro-Blaster?
Well, first off, I do think it is a solid EA that produces good results most of the time. I also think it is well worth the [...]

I spent the last couple of days doing more than 30 backtests on Euro-Blaster, covering the last five and a half years. I think my computer needs a break. It’s not used to having to work quite that hard.
Let me say upfront that it is important to realize that the strategy tester in Metatrader 4 [...]

Well, it was the worst week by far for our Euro-Blaster demo account. Only two trades were completed on the FXDD account. Part of the reason there were no more trades than that was because the robot is stuck with five other open positions at the moment. (four of these were opened on Wednesday). Even [...]

I have added a link to another Euro-Blaster user’s live demo account on our Results page. This account has been running since April 13 and is already up over 93%! That’s some return in less than 40 days! Amazing. I have also listed the custom settings that are being used on that account on our [...]

Well, the good news is that my demo account on Ikon Royal saw all of the drawdown from Friday afternoon erased. The bad news is that my demo account there expired this evening before those positions could hit the take profit level. Bummer. So, that demo is “in the books” at a total profit of [...]

As I documented earlier, my demo accounts got off to a slow start this week. Though it is not unusual for Euro-Blaster to not take trades for one or more days on occasion, I knew for a fact that other people were getting trades. So I still believe this was due primarily to me loading [...]

I began a demo account on Ikon Royal a few days ago with the same settings (aggressive preset) as the FXDD demo account. By using identical settings, it gives us a good way to compare the robot’s performance on different brokers. It has not yet been determined what impact, if any, the various brokers have [...]

Well, fortunately it appears that only running one copy of Euro-Blaster per VPS has resolved the issue of it not taking as many trades. After a slow start to the week (only taking one or two trades by Tuesday), I had another seven complete trades by this morning (all profitable) and one trade that was [...]
