Backtests
The strategy was tested extensively to ensure the trade logic is profitable and solid over
the past decade.
All backtests were made using 1 minute data from Alpari. The strategy is not scalping, it
makes 1-2 trades per day on average with fixed Stop Loss and Profit Target, so 1 minute
data provide sufficient level of testing accuracy.
Backtest with Money Management (5% risk) and compounding
This is how the strategy is traded in reality. It has volatility-based Stop Loss and uses
Money Management that automatically computes lots size so that it doesn't risk more
than 5% of the trading account on every trade.
As your account grows, it trades with bigger lot size, but always keeps the risk at 5% of
your account.
For every $ 1000 invested into this startegy in year 2000 you'd have over $ 28.000
earned in the beginning of 2013, that is return of over 2800 % in 12 years.

Backtest with Money Management (5% risk) without compounding
Results without compounding provide another picture of the strategy performance. You
can see that the equity curve is quite stable, without big drawdowns.
This backtest assumes $1000 starting account, and the EA doesn't use compounding. Risk
is 5 % of the account ($ 50) for every trade and the strategy makes approx. 30 % return
per year (without compounding) in average.
