EA Black Dragon trading strategy tests 

Black Dragon indicator, on which the EA is based, is a trend detection indicator. It shows the dynamic levels of support and resistance. You can use them for profit taking, and for setting up stop losses. 

This backtest was conducted on the GBP/USD pair from January 2010 to December 2020 using an every tick model. There were 5105 trades placed during the testing period, out of which 74.63% were profitable. Similar to the win rate, the profit factor was also quite high at 2.35. However, the relative drawdown was 85.14%, and such a high drawdown indicates a risky trading strategy. There were 19 maximum consecutive wins and 5 maximum consecutive losses during the testing period. 

EA Black Dragon live trading results 

Unfortunately, there are no verified trading accounts for this expert advisor on trusted third-party websites like Myfxbook, FXBlue, and FXStat. The vendor has shared a live monitoring account on MQL5 that was launched on the 10^th of January, 2022. To date, only five trades have been placed through this account, all of which have been profitable.

The maximum drawdown for this account is 5% and the total profit generated is $4.23. Due to the very short trading history, it is difficult to draw a comparison between the live trading and backtesting results.
