Hey I'm not praising the EA at all and totally agree with your sentiment. I'm merely giving kudos for the account owner hanging in there thru that appalling (and ongoing) draw down.Probably badly worded on my part considering the EA is a sham.
It was produced by the same author that wrote the ShapeEA - not sure if you were aware of that one on the MQL5 market, but it got shut down and refunded to those who requested their money back. Well its the same sham author that wrote Tesseract.
I suspect this is the same or similar EA. The back tests completely fall apart after the release date, which proves the EA has hard coded back test data built in, or is almost perfectly curve fitted to the past history. Either way, it's to be avoided at all costs. As there were only two people tracking this account (one of them being me), I wan't too concerned about my comments, and didn't I think it would get such a reaction - lol
I've been trading for 15 years, so I know all about draw down and risk management, but appreciate all the screen shots - I'm sure others will find them useful. In hindsight, I should have worded my comment a little better, just in case it was taken out of context or as any sort of praise for the EA itself.
In summary...
*** DO NOT BUY THIS EA - IT'S A SHAM ***
