How these are measured

Every figure is a live result on a 2,000 demo account under real market conditions, after costs, with the strategy's own fixed lot size. Returns are a percentage of that account. To make this list an automation needs at least 8 closed trades in the period and a positive result. No backtest figure is used anywhere in this report. An automation is only called proven after 12 weeks of live testing.

Important

These are past results of live testing on a demo account, and past results are not a guide to future results. Any automation can stop working, and losses can be fast. Trading leveraged products such as CFDs carries a high risk of losing money. This report is information, not advice or a recommendation to trade.
