i have a simple question :
while reading this forum i see many people pointing out demo accounts as if they were fake accounts. yes, they are accounts with fake money but they are not fake. the market information shown in demo accounts are the same shown in real money accounts, the info shown by indicators on demo accounts are the same shown in real accounts.
so, my question :
is a trading system operated on a demo account a system that will not be consistent on real account?
if yes, does that make any sense to use demo accounts to test strategies? does this mean that brokers claim demo accounts as good ways to test strategies while this is not true?
please, don't take my post as a silly and useless criticism. i am just trying to figure out how things are about this topic.

Yes please share your profitable account. Making daily .03% on green isn't much profitable, as you can't even cover your cable bill with that amount of money. I have started the new year with a small amount, and will try my best to make it profitable. Actually, that is is everyone's wish, but this thread is for people who are doing it.

The sad reality about your 'EA' based on the results you have shown is that it isn't very good. The results are pretty good, but look at the drawdown on all of your accounts. What good is it to have 1000% return when your drawdown is 99%. I say that because if someone would of invested in your system towards the tail end, then it would of resulted in a margin call.

this is a month old demo. cuz i dont have real account yet. but im proud of the trades i took. keep in mind that the 30% dd is due to low initial deposit which is only 100$. there is always a stoploss and 1st target of 1:1 rr. second half is what makes real profit. feel free to check the trades and drop your opinion.

Agreed, a DD of no more than 20% should be the goal in my opinion. No one wants to see all of their money disappear and then need to make it back again.

If you can do that on a real account that would be very impressed, especially when your equity was always above your balance due to your R:R , but seeing it's demo not sure if it is worth much since no meddling with the price, slippage, spreads etc by the broker.

you would be right my friend, if i was going for small chunks, which would result in disaster in real account due to slippage and spread. but stop losses vary between 30-100 and targets go up to 500 or even more if enough time is given. but regardless i will be going live as soon as my affairs in order. thank for commenting.

My system is very good and no it doesn't have a 99% DD - https://www.myfxbook.com/members/RedRhinoFX/redrhinofx-ats-10/1240814 - this is the master account and has been running for 11 months with 10 profitable months while trading through the China Flash Crash, ECB intervention, USD rate hikes, etc.
The account with 99% DD was blown from ats 11, then I added my ATS10 to that account and made over 1000% gain running at 2X risk - https://www.myfxbook.com/members/RedRhinoFX/redrhinofx-ats-10-2x-stopped/1240807
ATS10 master account will run at reduced risk in 2016 ( 50% reduction) while some sub accounts will still run at the same risk as the master account did in 2015. I am happy with the system and I stopped selling my software rather quickly because I didn't want to offer support for life for free.
Also as with any system the Risk can be increased or decreased to suit individual needs. My 2015 performance was using $1000 trading a 0.01 that compounded after each 100% gain and that is how I was able to achieve these high performances over the length of 2015.
A 20% Worse case scenario is actually more than I am willing to risk in 2016 . the ATS10 master will have 16% equity protection instead of the 33% that I used during 2015. Why is drawdown greater than 33% on the master account? Manual intervention that continued to close profitable basket trades while managing the drawdown so the account balance grew rather quickly while the equity managed to increase at a slower rate ( that's managing drawdown).
I have other systems and they are all different in regards to strategy, money management, average monthly gains, and worse case drawdown.
All of your accounts have very very very high drawdowns. Especially considering the fact that you are risking such a small portion of your account, a drawdown that high seems rather unacceptable don't you think?

I am not sure how you can consider your system to be 'good' when you take such low risk but end up losing 10% of your account with a loss of over 600 pips.
Had a person been following you then, and decide to have wagered .03 lots, then it would of been 30% draw-down. Let us see how your system does the next 2 months, as the market will continue to trade in a small range.

raza your biggest issue is time not spreads nor slippage... you MIGHT do that few weeks but within a few years the market will have been against you, but like I said it would be very impressive if you could.
