Here is an EA I have made using a free EA maker. This EA is based on above settings. So it will make backtesting easier if someone wants to backtest it. I have used Daily timeframe when using this EA as written in above strategy.

Please share ur results asap as I think I made a mistake while making it. I have not set an SL which may cause very big losses. So if backtest results show loss then SL optimization will reduce it significantly.

Here is the backtest report. I have also looked at detaild report and ironical is right, there are some trades with very high loss. Largest profit trade is 50.24 and largest loss trade is -926.6

Stick to your rules

It is BIG difference in max profit and max loss. Just by putting an SL, this system can perform much better.

Ironical, thx for creating EA.

I have tested using half standard lot per trade and 30 pip SL.

Very nice results. Even though it has not performed in last 1/3 part of backtest period but it has maintained the profit level and has not made any significant loss.

Yes. I think it will need optimization. Maybe addition of another indicator or most probably revision in TP and SL.

Champ, u did a great job. Your results are much better. 

Have u tried other TP and SL? For example 40 pip profit and 20 pip SL or may be some other value. With slight changes we can get totally different results.

Stick to your rules

Yes I have tried other settings but I got best result with these settings. I am facing one problem though. My trades are not limiting profit or loss to specified pips and sometimes increase it. It may be the bug in programming.
