We test trading robots. Then we publish what we find.
Six checks on real ticks for every robot we review. Every verdict names the version we tested and how to repeat the test.
One standard, for everyone.
An EA has to clear all six before we call it passed. Most don’t, and we say so.
How each check works- 01
Real ticks
Every-tick data from a real broker feed, not one-minute bars.
- 02
Out-of-sample
A hold-out period the EA never saw while it was being tuned.
- 03
Live and verified
A live signal verified by a third party, not a screenshot.
- 04
Real costs
Spread, commission and swap at a real broker’s rates.
- 05
Robustness
Results survive nudged settings and different start dates.
- 06
Integrity
No hard-coded dates, no hidden martingale, no curve-fit tricks.
