Trading strategy
According to the vendor info, this product uses scalping, trend detection, market corrections, and range detection approaches. A short explanation of each of the approaches is present on the official site. Backtesting reports are also present. Here is a backtesting result for the EURUSD pair using the M5 timeframe done from 2007 up to 2018.
From the above report, we find the EA has generated a net profit of $33307 from an initial deposit of $1000 with a profit factor of 1.64 and a maximal drawdown of 57.745. The profitability percentage is 79.71%. Since the modeling quality is 90% only, it is not adequate to reveal crucial info like the slippage, commission, etc. From the backtesting result, we can see the drawdown is very high and profits are low indicating an ineffective approach and below-average performance.
Trading results
The vendor provides a demo USD account using the Alpari RU broker and the leverage of 1:500 on the MT4 platform verified by the myfxbook site.
From the above stats, the total profit generated is 235.87% and a similar value is present for the absolute profit. A daily and monthly profit of 0.07% and 2.21% are present for the account. The drawdown is 47.19%. A deposit of $352 has generated a profit of $831.90 for the live demo account started in February 2017. The total number of trades executed is 936 with 60% profitability and a profit factor value of 1.24.
From the trading history, we can see the lot size used is 0.02. Comparing the backtesting report and the demo account result it is clear that the accounts have a big drawdown and low profitability. The results indicate an ineffective and risky strategy resulting in poor performance.
