What results can I expect with Medici EA? +

Expect 18-24% monthly growth with proper capitalization ($1,200-$2,000 for 5-8 pairs) during trending market conditions. Performance varies based on capital allocation, pair selection (3-10 range), and broker execution quality. Backtest validation shows 76.34% win rate across 262 trades, but individual months fluctuate between 12-30% depending on market volatility and directional clarity. Demo test 60+ days to confirm your broker's spread and execution align with backtest assumptions before live deployment.

What makes Medici EA different from other EAs? +

Combines trend-following entries with controlled grid recovery instead of pure martingale—uses fixed lot sizing with predefined spacing rather than exponential position doubling. Operates across multiple currency pairs simultaneously (5-10 pairs typical) for diversification, unlike single-pair systems vulnerable to isolated drawdowns. The 99.90% modeling quality across 134,464 bars provides more robust validation than typical 90-95% backtests covering shorter periods.

Does Medici EA work on demo accounts? +

Yes, fully functional on demo accounts—mandatory 60-90 day demo testing required before live use. Demo validates your broker's spread consistency (must stay <3 pips on majors), slippage patterns during volatile sessions, and margin requirements match your capital allocation. Test with realistic capital amounts ($1,200+ recommended) rather than $10,000 demo accounts that don't reflect actual risk exposure you'll face live.

Can I use Medici EA for prop firm challenges? +

Not recommended for standard prop firm evaluations. The 75.42% maximum drawdown in backtest exceeds typical 10-12% daily and 15-20% total drawdown limits enforced by firms like FTMO and MyFundedFX. Even with conservative settings (3-5 pairs, $1,200+ capital targeting 18-28% typical DD), recovery periods of 3-5 weeks risk violating time-limited challenge rules. Consider dedicated prop firm EAs with <15% maximum historical drawdown instead.

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

Minimum $500 allows 3-5 pairs maximum using 1-2% fixed lots, accepting high risk with potential 40-60% drawdown during adverse multi-pair scenarios. Recommended $1,200-$2,000 enables 5-8 pairs with 3% lots, targeting 18-28% typical drawdown and 3-5 week recovery periods during normal volatility. Undercapitalization below $500 risks margin calls when grid recovery activates across multiple simultaneous positions—broker leverage of 1:200-1:500 required for adequate margin reserves.

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

Primary risk is 25-40% drawdown during ranging markets when grid recovery activates across multiple pairs simultaneously, compounded by low capital buffers creating margin pressure. This occurs when 5-8 pairs enter adverse positions during correlated USD weakness or strength, requiring 3-5 weeks to recover as trends resume. Control by allocating $1,200-$2,000 for 5-8 pairs using Conservative.set (3% fixed lots, wider grid spacing), or limit to 3-5 pairs with $500-$800 using 1-2% lots to maintain 200%+ margin levels. Enable equity stop at 30-35% to prevent margin calls during extreme correlation events. With proper setup, expect 18-24% typical drawdown recovering within 4 weeks, versus 40-75% risk when undercapitalized or overtrading pair count.

Which brokers work best with this EA? +

ECN or STP brokers with spreads under 3 pips on majors (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY) and leverage 1:200-1:500 required for multi-pair grid management. Fast execution during volatile sessions essential—slippage >2 pips degrades backtest assumptions. Recommended: IC Markets, Pepperstone, FBS (ECN accounts). Avoid: Market maker brokers with >4 pip spreads, fixed spread accounts during news, and any broker restricting grid/hedging strategies or imposing minimum distance rules >10 pips.
