Not sure why I did not get quality ticks, maybe FTMO doesn't provide it.

$10k evaluation

0.5% risk per trade

1% risk loss

GA Profit enabled

Please help me fine-tune especially August 14 2021 fails until 2022. I guess the liquidity is the issue.

MT version:
Set for MT5 only

Run this backtest on Modelling "Every tick based on real ticks" any other broker MT5 (ICMarkets for example).

FTMO data feed in real time can be similar or worst compared to ICMarkets (better - unlikely).

Real ticks mode is heavy on hardware/system resources, so no need to wait when test ends - but the balance curve will already reveal to you the "naked truth".

I am with you mate, you are on the right path!

Look at FTMO from this angle:

MT5 allows to open total 97 charts

 -- in order to pull FTMO challenge, realistically - need 97 extra-conservative diversified sets


High price, but nice reward))

Lets keep trying!

🙂🙏

Thank you for giving hope on this project. The only issue FTMO said is when EA 

has many orders their server will have issues.


But this actually limits it.. the GA does well.. 

We will keep trying.
