Upload your backtest to myfxbook by adding a strategy. Then use only the profitable trading hours to optimize the settings. The image below shows a EURCAD backtest with default settings, notice that only certain trading hours are profitable.

This is a high risk strategy that will inevitably result in a sequence of lost trades and a margin call.

I don’t recommend any lot size increase to recover a loss. Try to optimize the settings and find which hours of the day have high percentage of profitable trades. Usually this occurs during the first hours of European and New York sessions.

There is no problem with your settings. Watch the “Experts” and “Journal” tabs for any error messages.

The QuickTP is the take profit of the first trade in a tradeset. If this first trade hits stop loss then the subsequent trades will have a different take profit that takes into account the loss of the previous trade. The dashboard may show this modified take profit but once a new tradeset starts the QuickTP is again used for its first trade.

Check if your broker has enabled trading with expert advisors and if you can backtest it succesfully. You can also try the same settings in a demo account of a different broker.

The indicators uses bid price only but the EA uses ask when short trades are closed or long trades are opened.
