People on the Trade2Win forum suggested stopping from Dec. 17 - after the first week in January. However Mark said he's going to continue all the way through but at a lower risk.

Though I would not recommend trading on U.S. holidays. Thanksgiving had a loss.

I just got the turbo set up my paramters and backtested it, the results are wrong as they are mostly losers, so I decided to backtest the regular one and it did the same thing. Does anyone know why my backtesting won't work properly, when I backtested the standard one before it was 74% or so winners and now the tests wont run properly anymore.

Does it perhaps have to do with having the two EA's on mt4 now?

I have tried everything from restarting the computer to trying to download the history data again, and triple checking all the settings. Before where I was showing about 78% winners I now show 43%. No idea whats going on.

Just read that backtesting can be way off during weekends for some reason. Anybody heard of that before?

I just realized that the settings for Turbo that I'm using also has the ATR trailing stop on True.

Also testing to see if a set time of 06:00 -06:00 is better than 06:00 - 06:30 or 06:00 - 06:45.

Whats sort of win percentage are you showing and over what period of time? mine said 66.99% for the last year.

Littlepip I am using the same parameters as you now but for some reason my results keep coming back as being better with the standard EA, are you finding the same thing?
