What results can I expect with FTMO Trading EA? +

Both verified demo accounts passed the $25K FTMO challenge, generating +7.99% and +10.83% within 18-day windows. Realistic expectations depend on broker spread quality, AUDCHF market conditions during your challenge window, and strict adherence to default settings. These are demo results — live funded accounts introduce execution differences. Run on a tight-spread ECN broker and avoid modifying lot sizes or stop levels without prior testing.

Can I use FTMO Trading EA for prop firm challenges? +

Yes — this EA was built specifically for prop firm challenge structures. Both tracked accounts passed the $25K FTMO evaluation with drawdowns of 2.10% and 4.03%, comfortably under FTMO's 10% daily and 20% overall limits. Use the default 0.1-lot setting and avoid aggressive position sizing adjustments during active challenge phases. A VPS is strongly recommended to prevent missed entries from connectivity gaps.

Does FTMO Trading EA work on demo accounts? +

Both performance records shown are from verified MyFxBook demo accounts on EightCap MT4. Demo validation is the appropriate first step before any live or funded deployment. Run a minimum of 30–60 days on demo using your specific broker to confirm spread compatibility and execution behavior before entering a paid challenge or live account.

What makes FTMO Trading EA different from other prop firm EAs? +

This EA uses five independent technical filters — Envelope, dual RSI, DeMarker, MACD, and ATR — requiring simultaneous confirmation before any entry. That layered approach kept drawdown below 4.03% across both challenge runs. There is no martingale, no grid doubling, and no averaging into losing trades. The result is conservative position behavior that aligns naturally with FTMO's strict daily loss rules.

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

The EA was tested against a $25,000 prop firm challenge account using 0.1-lot fixed sizing. This lot-to-capital ratio is why drawdowns stayed below 5%. Running the same 0.1-lot setting on a smaller personal account (under $5,000) carries disproportionate risk per trade. If adapting to a personal live account, scale lot size proportionally — do not maintain 0.1 lots on accounts below $10,000 without drawdown consequence.

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

The 4.03% maximum drawdown observed represents the worst recorded figure across both demo accounts — this occurred during a single 18-day window on AUDCHF M15 with fixed 0.1 lots. Live trading introduces spread widening, slippage, and requotes absent from demo results, which can deepen drawdown meaningfully. Control risk by using an ECN broker with tight AUDCHF spreads, maintaining default stop-loss parameters (30 pips), and avoiding lot size increases until broker-specific demo validation is complete. Expect 2–6% drawdown under normal conditions with default settings in place.

Which brokers work best with this EA? +

EightCap was the broker used across both verified challenge accounts — it provides ECN execution and tight spreads on AUDCHF, which directly supports the EA's ATR-filtered entry logic. Any ECN or STP broker offering AUDCHF with spreads consistently below 1.5 pips and reliable M15 data should be compatible. Avoid market-maker brokers with variable spread policies or frequent requotes, as these interfere with the fixed 30-pip stop and 60-pip target structure.
