Matt’s FOREX Expert Advisor Blog

A majority of my day has gone into installing MetaTrader, configuring it, installing the EA Data Analyzer client, and setting up some initial demos. I’ve installed MetaTrader 50 times on my VPS (10 of each for Alpari UK, Forex.com, FXCM, FXDD, and IBFX). All 50 have been updated to the latest versions as well. Days like today remind me of what a pain in the butt all this is but I’m glad it’s behind me now.

Demos…

My initial demos are all running on Alpari UK. There are 6 demos (AshFX H4, AshFX D1, AshFX II H4, AshFX II D1, MyFutureBAT H4, and MyFutureBAT D1) all with default values for the most part. The only changes I’ve really made in the settings are turning on Money Management for 3%. For the MyFutureBAT demos I’ve configured a large take profit and have decided on all demos to let the EAs manage the exits with no trailing stops other than PSAR with AshFX systems and the BAT line with MyFutureBAT. Several trades have already been placed and all information is being uploaded to my server with the EA Data Analyzer client. I will be expanding my testing to include other EAs and brokers over time but feel I’ve accomplished enough for right now.

I look forward to completing the Analysis website and finding out what works and what doesn’t. I also thank all those who have chosen to contribute by downloading my client and are now uploading active trade data along with my own. Over time I have big plans and am excited to see how it all unfolds.

Questions? Comment? Please post them on the site.

Thanks again to all those who have supported me along the way.
