As you can see, the only aggressive account setting is running on Rakuten (tick volume = 1.3) but I had no trades this week.

Feel free to ask, I'll answer.

But, please, share your settings to improve our knowledge.

Thanks for the detailed information. I also sometimes use aggressive settings on some accounts, but taking into account the fact that this still increases the risks in trading. That's why I prefer the default settings and sometimes use the set files from this forum. Thanks to this, I regularly withdraw profits to my card, and I consider the purchase of an advisor to be a profitable investment. https://elm-ea-forexforum.com/resources/categories/presets.4/

Aggressive settings certainly improve the result of trading, but always increase the risks. The more aggressively you trade, the more you risk. Therefore, I usually use the default settings. The market is very unpredictable right now. If such a market is aggressively traded, there may be an unexpected result. In a calm, flat market, you can take risks to offset the passivity of the market. You should also understand that with aggressive settings, the number of false trades increases.

In general, how do aggressive settings show themselves?
I am not sure to have understood what you mean: is the answer that Rainis gave you enough?
