if your broker offer 5 spread, better you optimize the trading time, i suggest between 22-2 or (20-0 GMT) where the Atr is still higher during this time, and also You should use tight stop and if it possible your maxtrade just 2. The hard with 5 spread because the chance of my EA to trade is less, but a good news that average profit may be higher then 3 spread.
Thats true on vs_eurgbp. I just assuming in this EA that the most working idea to scalp eurgbp pair is the trading time, and the goal is to make a fast recovery EA. The entry formula just to avoid us from situation where between overbought and oversold is just as much as spread and force our trade to stay longer in the market before making a pip (converse to scalp idea that it should be quick to get out from the market).

Backtest and real performance differs very much.
I use only live perfrmance on demo.
I made lots backtests and if I do now backtest of mine demo account for period it traded by ea d03 and compare to live demo results it will be totally different values.
but anyway it is much much better and stable than fapturbo or other megadroids shit![]()

Again Stace I suspect Your backtest has lower spread then when it running in live, other thing it meet another scalper enemy, SLIPPAGE, You should use indicator that can record all spread changing. On broker with fixed spread in all session like Tadawul, You will not get such problem.

Yes I have broker which has 3 pips in day and night time spread goes to 5 pips.
I use FXPRO

Thats why Your backtest look pretty good then live. But You still can get the same result (backtest and live) if You make backtest while the spread in Your platform is 5 (if really when it run live the spread is also 5).
So you have to make backtest during night when its spread goes to 5 pips.
