What results can I expect with Shark Tank FTMO EA? +

Backtests on the 10K preset show roughly 11.9% net profit over 30 days with a 3.18% max drawdown. The 25K preset showed 11.2% over the same period. These are backtest figures only—live results will vary based on broker spread, execution speed, market conditions, and session volatility. Results are not guaranteed. Demo-test your specific challenge size for at least 60 days before running on a funded evaluation.

Can I use Shark Tank FTMO EA for prop firm challenges? +

Yes—this EA is specifically designed for FTMO-style challenges. Presets are calibrated for 10K, 25K, 50K, 100K, and 200K account sizes. Backtested drawdown stayed below 3.2% across tested presets, well within FTMO's 10% daily and 10% overall loss limits. However, backtest performance does not guarantee live challenge success. Validate on a demo challenge account first.

What makes Shark Tank FTMO EA different from other EAs? +

Most prop firm EAs use aggressive position sizing that risks breaching challenge DD limits. Shark Tank uses a fixed 20-pip stop-loss, 120-pip take-profit, and hard 22:00 daily close—no overnight positions, no martingale, no grid. The session window (13:30–14:30) targets the highest-liquidity overlap, reducing erratic fill behavior. Challenge-specific presets remove manual lot calculation from the equation.

Does Shark Tank FTMO EA work on demo accounts? +

Yes, and demo testing is strongly recommended before any funded challenge attempt. Load the relevant preset (matching your intended challenge size), run it on a demo account with the same broker type (ECN preferred, spread ≤2 pips), and observe at least 60 days of operation. This validates session timing, spread behavior, and EA response to your specific broker's feed before real capital is at risk.

What capital do I need to run this EA safely? +

Capital requirement matches your challenge account size—use the corresponding preset. For a 10K FTMO challenge, load the 10K.set file; for a 25K challenge, use the 25K.set file. Running a larger preset on an undersized account will distort lot sizing and risk breach of challenge loss limits. Do not mix preset sizes with mismatched account balances. Always confirm lot output in the EA panel before activating on a live challenge.

What are the main risks and how do I manage them? +

The core risk is spread exceeding the EA's optimal threshold. Backtests used a spread of 2 pips; on standard or cent accounts with spreads above 5, trade profitability degrades significantly and the 37% win rate may not compensate losses. Use an ECN or zero-spread account, keep spread at or below 2 pips, and run on a VPS to prevent session-timing gaps. Backtest drawdown reached a maximum of 3.18%—live conditions may produce higher drawdowns during low-liquidity or high-news periods.

Which brokers work best with this EA? +

ECN or zero-spread brokers with spread ≤2 pips on EURUSD are required for optimal performance. RoboForex ECN was used in backtesting. Avoid standard accounts, cent accounts, or brokers with variable spreads that spike above 5 pips during the session window. For FTMO challenges specifically, confirm your prop firm's data feed broker matches ECN-style execution. Leverage of at least 1:100 is needed for correct preset lot sizing.
