Man… backtesting is exciting… Ok… at times…

It took me about 1 full day to backtest things over and over again just to look for the right kind of EA to go demo…

Now this one I got to admit… Forex Transformer initially had the same cynicism as all the other EA. Some of it asked me to do a scam feature… but again… I don’t think I am into that kind of business only if it serves my purpose. Sorry… but I have to prioritize my bottom line here man…

Before I dive into backtesting… let’s take a look at who Optimus Prime is…

From a quick whois search, it’s Paul Liburd from Manchester UK… This is a good sign.. he is legit… Don’t need to hide who you are if you are the proud owner… ain’t it…

And further googling brought me to a site which indicates that Paul Liburd is also the author of Forex Raid . I do not think this ebook system kicked off because I never heard of Forex Raid…. Probably because I never really dived into manual trading…

So anyhuu…. he is legit… digging shows that. I believe he is using his system from Forex Raid and TRANSFORM it into an EA….

Anyway… I did a backtest on this EA and I got a whoopee of excitement…  (Click image to view statement)

Interesting no? The robot is set in such a way that you only trade 0.1. The lots is hard coded into the robot which really sucks I believe with this sort of graph… a money management system included would make it even better or profitable….

Hmm….Yes… I believe that if there is a money management system included, the curve would be interestingly better… Ok… I’ll leave it for later to work on this point…. since I do have the open source…

So with these sort of graph… how can I not extend the backtesting time line to 1999

And what do you know…. (Click image to view statement)
