That's why I've told you before... I think it was you. That long term it's better not to use TP's...just enter whenever the EA says to go in and exit when stop loss hit or when the signal is reversed...
i've showed some tests already... in how you would've made for the last year with very simple money management strategies around 350% on your account

Hello salvadorveiga,
I agree with what you say. I don't think you need to convince me. You're probably talking to the wrong person. I've been trading to the rules (at least the ones I've got!) since April this year. In an earlier post I showed how these results compounded over 1, 2 years can add up in a big way.
But alongside each trade as per Sniper rules I also take out 1 TP trade. It's actually my version of the Sniper rule -
“Advanced Strategy: If your money management and equity allow...” The idea is to divide the trade into 5, exiting at 25 pts, 50 pts, 75 pts, 100 pts and letting the 5th lot ride the trend out.
Perhaps the best of both worlds. Actually I think discussion on the various ways people apply and change these rules is fine. We can all learn a lot. But, yes, we should always remember the system as it stands.
Bye,
