The Good Bad and the Ugly
While I enjoy publishing good Forex EA results and nothing is more exciting than watching a robot pull in winning trade after trade, completely on auto-pilot… Well at least when it is real money but for demo accounts it is still more exciting than watching paint dry.
However I’m not here to just show you the good results, there are some bad ones and downright ugly ones too. Seems Gridbot just blew out my demo account and shut itself down. Well at least it shut itself down before wiping out completely. It will take a little time to figure out what went wrong here and I’ll fire an email off to support just to make sure everything was setup correctly.
Although it is not entirely obvious from the Metatrader result page, actual trades began on June 15 but most of the account loss occurred in less than 3 days. When I have my live trade results software up and running, this will be much more transparent but for the moment, we’ll have to settle for the Metatrader detailed report graph.

Forex Gridbot Software Update
Upgrade to the Latest Version of Forex Gridbot
Anyone who bought Forex Gridbot more than 2 weeks ago should download the latest version. The upgrade is of course free, just go to the members download page and download the latest version. They have also updated the user guide, so be sure to grab the latest version at the same time. This new version is trading very well with Gridbot pulling in some decent profits over the past week and fairly consistently.
If you’ve been following my blog then you will know I had some issues getting Gridbot to trade with an FXDD account. Well the latest version has solved that and its now trading like a champion. This is definitely the Forex robot to keep an eye on as it seems to absolutely love the current market conditions.
Here’s Gridbot’s results from last week.
One big issue with testing so many different Expert Advisors (Forex robots) is the time involved in collecting, preparing and publishing the latest results. And as I add more and more EAs to the mix, I can see this is going to become a real issue. So over the next few days, I’ll be putting together a script that will automatically post the results from all EAs being tested, with fresh updates every hour. That way you’ll be able to see in almost real time how a particular EA performs in live forward tests.
If you wish to see any particular information extracted and highlighted from the metatrader results page, such as maximal draw down, best/worst performance etc. Please don’t hesitate to leave a comment. Your comments and ideas will be incorporated into the results page. Thanks.
