EAs I am testing

Hello, Pegasus looked like a nice EA but after it stopped  working I cannot fix it. Another "good" EA is Robotron and it is also NOT working. So I am testing EuroScalper and FXCore100 . Euro is doing well (Started 28/09/202 with $250 and it is now $482) and FXCore is not doing well.

Interestingly enough Fxcore100EA did not open a trade for three weeks testing, so I stopped the test. I tested it on an ICM demo account.

if FXcore100 didn't trade for 3 weeks there is something wrong with the EA setup. FXcore100 EA should start trading immediately

Obviously, there is something wrong. I used default settings.

Hi
I'm testing Price Action EA, Pegasus , Holy Grail and Nuclear
Price Action opened several oders but the results were negative
Regarding Pegasus  it was even more active with similar results
Holy Grail opened last week only a couple of orders with good results .
and Nuclear I've started yesterday . Anyway today it should have opened  ordes due the amount of activity
I have to say that I'm testing with ECN ,Standard and Instant Order accounts to compare the behaviors . All these EAs have  excelent backtesting results . This lead me to one question , is there a good EA out there  based on price action ?

If your running on a.vps, try to restart the mt4.

Neither I had good results with these EAs. I am afraid there are several EAs only for backtesters.

Backtests and forward test really can be different. Even though the model says 99.90% accurate.

So what are you thinking of the EA's you've tried so far? Any personal favorite?
