Trading Results
The dev provided multiple backtest reports for each currency pair on their website. It is the EUR/USD symbol at the H1 timeframe. The robot traded with a 10% risk. Backtesting results are based on five years of trading activity data beginning from 2013 to 2018. The modeling quality was 90%. There were 35670 bars in the test. The initial deposit was $10K. For 5 years of trading, the robot could generate $54950.06 of the total net profit. It traded 280 trades and won 206 out of them, which represented a win rate of 73, 57% with a profit factor of 1, 47. Maximal drawdown was high – 40.37%.
We are shown a live demo (USD) trading account working under IC Markets brokerage on the MT4 platform. Its leverage is set at 1:500. The account launched myfxbook on July 15, 2019. Its track record is not verified.
It was deposited at over $4,5K. For less than 2 years of trading, its total gain has grown to only 8, 43%. Its daily and monthly gains are insignificant (0, 02% and 0, 49%). It has brought $380 of profit. There is nothing to talk about. As you can see on the growth chart below, the profitability of this trading account has been constantly dropping down since the beginning of June 2020.
The peak drawdown was 13, 22%, which is too much as for EA generating 0, 49% monthly.
The robot has traded 302 trades, but only 129 out of them were profitable. Its win rate for both long and short positions is low – 43% and 41% respectively. The profit factor is lower than the one we see on the backtesting report – 1, 09.
It trades 5 currency pairs, but only 3 of them bring profits: EURJPY, EURUSD, and USDCAD. The most profitable symbol is EURJPY – $1061, 78.
It trades with high risks to the account balance.
The 2021 trading results are nothing to talk about.
