Simon,

Your MT4 stats look great and I'm glad you chose a reasonable position size. I mentioned this to Matt Robinson, that the default risk setting should be set for safe trading and the 15% high risk setting should be an optiion.

I notice there are no trades on the EURUSD, both my demo accounts had several trades on this pair simultaneously with the EURJPY trades.

I got excited about this EA when I first saw the Donna Forex MT4 stats, and again when it traded on my accounts. It is too early to draw any real conclusions, but I am liking what I see, however my excitment about this bothers me, I dont trust it.

The recomended settings are in the manual, or as default in the program.

Sounds great... if the idea is that it can function totally on its own, you can ignore it and focus on your own trading in the mean time?
How would you run such a bot... open a separate trading account? or can you run two metatrader platforms on the same account and do your own trading on one and have one for the ea? Or can you run the ea on the same platform you use for regular trading, maybe a different profile? But... if you have to keep the profile open for it to function, you cannot use the other profiles at the same time...?
sorry, these are very much beginner questions... won't be offended if you roll your eyes...
anyway, thank you for testing these things out on the forum. a very much needed honest opinion in this forex world

Hi, just purchased the Hippo, I have tryed many EA before, hope this one works better.
On the website where you download the EA there is also a new settings page which is different then the manual. Which would you suggest using. The new settings have a little bigger spread.
Thanks
Craig

I bet Hippo was in a position to catch those big moves yesterday. Anyone experience that? Even on demo?
