What results has Forex Bank EA actually achieved? +

The verified live OctaFX real USD account recorded +235.06% gain with a 10.56% drawdown across approximately 44 days (July 19 – August 31, 2023) and 11 trades. The supporting backtest on $200 produced a profit factor of 8.30 with a 96.19% win rate over 105 trades. These are historical figures — past performance does not guarantee future results. A 90-day demo run is mandatory before live deployment.

Is this a martingale or grid EA? +

No. Forex Bank EA uses fixed lot sizing (0.01 default) — it does not scale positions after losses like martingale systems, and it does not open a grid of orders across price levels. Each trade operates independently under the same fixed risk parameters, which means a losing streak does not compound your exposure geometrically.

How many trades does the EA take — is the sample size enough to trust the results? +

The verified live signal closed only 11 trades over 44 days, which is a statistically limited sample. The backtest adds 105 trades across a broader dataset with a profit factor of 8.30, but backtest modelling quality is listed as n/a. Treat the live signal as early validation, not a fully established track record — this is exactly why 90-day demo testing is mandatory before live capital.

Can I use Forex Bank EA on a prop firm account? +

The live signal recorded a 10.56% peak drawdown, which falls within the daily and overall drawdown limits of most prop firm evaluations (FTMO, MyFundedFX, and similar). Fixed lot sizing avoids the runaway loss risk of grid or martingale approaches. That said, prop firm rules vary — verify the firm's specific EA trading policies and confirm no news-trading restrictions apply before attaching.

How much capital do I need to run this EA? +

The live signal ran on a starting balance of approximately $277, and the backtest used a $200 deposit. A recommended starting range of $500–$1,000 gives better drawdown tolerance at the default 0.01 lot size. Running below $200 increases the impact of any single losing trade on your overall equity. Scale lot size proportionally if you deposit more.

What are the main risks and how does the EA manage them? +

The live signal ran for only 44 days with 11 trades on a small $277 balance — limited sample size on low capital amplifies the impact of individual losses. The EA manages this through a fixed 0.01 lot size, a hard equity stop at 90%, and Magic Number isolation to prevent order conflicts. Realistic outcome range on a $500+ account at default settings mirrors the 10–17% drawdown zone seen across both live and backtest data. A 90-day demo run under current broker conditions establishes your specific baseline before committing real capital.

What broker should I use with Forex Bank EA? +

The live signal ran on OctaFX with 1:500 leverage on a real MT4 account. An ECN or STP broker with low spreads and fast execution is strongly recommended — wider spreads erode the edge on short-duration trades. Confirm your broker supports MT4 automated trading (EAs not blocked) and that your account allows algorithmic execution before attaching the EA.
