@Forex21

You have referred to this showcase account previously: https://www.bestforexrobots.net/pro-fx-3.html

I wonder why the results of the 'affiliate' are so different from the MyFxBook master account...?

Today (4/15/14) is a very clear example what I am reffering to:

MyFxBook account: -40 pips
MT4i account: +22 pips

The entry and exit times were significantly different, not to mention the outcomes. At least the directions were identical.

Does so much depend on the interpretation of the signals...?

1. If yes, how can it be a 100% ruled based strategy?
2. If no, who has not followed the strategy's rules today? And why?

Results of traders who use the basic trading rules will be the same or very similar to our results. However, as ProFx is very flexible, many users use it on different time frames results will be different.

No, signals itself are very easy to follow. Used time frame, currency pair(s), trading time and number of daily trades are responsible for different results.

If you follow the basic rules as described in the user guide it is 100% rule based. However, it is of course the decision of the trader how precise he follows the rules.

Our entry and exit was based on the basic rules (100% rule based) but it does not mean that Mr. Houstan did not follow the rules. It is easily possible that he use it on another TF or use slightly modified trading rules.

Alex, I think I mastered GBPUSD and now I am thinking about using your system on other pairs as well. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Hello Alexander,

Do you know why ALL the user accounts you shared with us, stopped updating? Strange...

Cheers!

I would have a few ideas... The first one comes to mind is that no one has been able to reproduce the claimed results.

Unless proven otherwise by letting them to be updated...

@Victor Tous

It's up to the users if they share their results or not. If you would like to know why they share their results ....or don't share....update or don't update, I would suggest that you ask them directly.

BTW...here is another account from a user who started last week with ProFx.



@ Paracelsus66

If you do some research you will find out that many users archive much higher performance.

Wow... Amazing performance history...! 3 tradings days with 2 losers and 1 winner...

Statistically speaking what would be the 'p' value?

Every account starts at some point and personally I think that 4.72% profit for the first week is great. Especially as the user just bought the system.

Forex21 has blocked me as 'Paracelsus66', so I am forced to reply to him this way. Probably he will block me again, as he will block anybody who questions his universal success story.

Anyway, let's see the same account in 2 months.

@Forex21

If you are up to the challenge, you will not block me. If yes, it tells the story and I will make you face it with a 3rd username.

Please click "Vouch" if you liked my post. If not, just put me on your Blocked list. :o)

The blocking feature provides the possibility to get rid off folks who just visit threads to cause frustration to others. As I believe laughing on users who just started to use ProFx 3.0 one week ago is just awful I blocked you and will keep blocking you until you are able to discuss things in a professional manner or run out of user names.

Have a good weekend!

@ Jippopad

You can add other indicators but experience shows that usage of additional indicators leads to worse results.

Do you have a 6+ year Dukascopy tick data backtest available for this EA?

I believe many of you know Andrew. He manages our support desk and making great progress with ProFx. Link to his stats: https://www.myfxbook.com/members/Forex21/profx-30-andrew/921384

Apologies!

I'm certainly interested, but I'd definitely like to see a 6+ year backtest for an EA implementation of the trading strategy (it seems fairly deterministic) as a proof of concept, so I know that this can be profitable over the long term.
