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?

In May, the number of trades was moderate, so I chose an aggressive set file, and in a month I have 80% profit to the deposit. It's not about what settings you have, but how and when you use them. I prefer variety in the market. The algorithm itself allows you to feel calm in the market, but you also need to understand which mode is optimal for you and what settings you should use. Market situations are different, and do not be afraid to experiment.

En mayo, el número de operaciones fue moderado, por lo que elegí un archivo fijo agresivo y en un mes tengo una ganancia del 80% en el depósito. No se trata de qué configuraciones tiene, sino de cómo y cuándo las usa. Prefiero variedad en el mercado. El algoritmo en sí le permite sentirse tranquilo en el mercado, pero también necesita comprender qué modo es óptimo para usted y qué configuración debe usar. Las situaciones del mercado son diferentes y no tenga miedo de experimentar

Hola en el mes de mayo no tuve operaciones en mi cuenta pero no tengo ningún error, tal vez tuvieron ese problema?

Great score mate, what version are you using? I increased my deposit by 55% in these 2 months, but I use PRO license and recently bought Crypto version. I expect to double my deposit over the summer when bitcoin volatility passes.

For the OPTI version, a 37% return in 2 months, with aggressive settings, is balanced. It seems to me that you have successfully selected all the parameters. This is the golden mean, which will generate profit for you. Please send your set file that you use on your account.

I'm happy to share the settings, because I experimented a lot with them and it shows in the yield curve. And it seems that now these are good settings. You need to choose the right position size =)

Thanks for the tweaks, you did a great job. Most importantly, your time was well spent. I am sure you will be able to monetize your ideas. If possible, keep us all posted on this forum, I will also test your settings and give you feedback.

Who has an opinion about the virtual take profit and stop loss? It seems to me that it makes sense to increase the take profit to 50 pips and the stop loss to 15 pips. Has anyone tried changing these settings?

With these stop loss and take profit values, you can get a loss. I tried using these values for a month, but the profit was less than the values recommended by Jared. I think Jared's are balanced, due to the constant optimization of the adviser. He has been using this EA for several years now and has the most impressive results. That's why I prefer the default settings. For me they are the best.

I agree with you. The default settings in the new version 2.3 work great on real accounts with different brokers. I liked this update. Jared keeps his word and adapts the algorithm to new conditions. I see that this project is in its development stage, which means that ELM EA has a future. You can't stand still in this segment. We need to move forward.

Hello, can I ask which brokers and what kind of account you are working on? I have worked on different accounts since I made a purchase, but in the last 15 days in a period of 1 month has opened 10 transactions and only one in the snow. I believe ELM is consistent, but I could not reach any profit in the licensed pro version. Could you please share with me which broker and account type you are working with?
