I will try those:

aaa 20
bbb 8
TP 10
PeriodMA 21

rest default

As of right now I'm not using an MA of 21, I think 50 is good for me right now. My TP is going to stay at 21 because that has been very good to me. I'm probably going to move my MT down to 3 instead of 5.

Well I moved my TP to 13 for right now. Also because it's mu lucky number lol

after a mornings testing of january's data, these are my settings so far. I normally change at the end of each month, but backtesting shows that these are ok so far.

Lots=0; LotsRiskReductor=1; MaxOrders=3; MaxLots=100; StopTime=5; aaa=9; bbb=10; TakeProfit=250; StopLoss=0; TrailingStop=20; UseMAControl=1; PeriodMA=100; PriceMA_0_6=0; TypeMA_0_3=0; SpanGator=0.5; SlipPage=3; OrderMagic=231313; SafetyGapDemarker=0.2; SafetyGapWPR=0; StartWorkTimeHour=0; StartWorkTimeMin=0; EndWorkTimeHour=0; EndWorkTimeMin=0; KEY="xxxxxxxxx";

by the way I do use a 5 point broker, so my TP is not as aggressive as it may look.

Does anyone know how to adjust the entry point of FAP i.e. if the FAP enters a short position for example @ 1.2840 and I would like to have this entry position autmatically changed by 10 or 20 pips higher to 1.2850 or 1.2860 etc. Is there a setting to let me accomplish this? Thx.

can FAPS be set to make 2 trades (max) a day? How?

You can set FAPS for manual confirmation. At which point you can input your own bid/ask prices.

The only FAPS that I know of that can shut down for the day after a trade is by joining Fap Winners and paying their membership fee. Unfortunately, the original FAPS did not come with this feature. Would have been nice though

Hi
If your broker is a 5 point broker, shouldn't Slipage=30 and TrailingStop=200?

Thanks for sharing your settings!!
