Here is something else I have learned after running all of these reviews.
If you decide to purchase and/or run an EA, you should do it on a demo account first, and you should compare your results to those of the author's live results.
I have found that in many cases, then EA performs differently on my platform due to errors in setup. Therefore, you may find that the author makes 5 trades one day, and makes $100 profit, but your version makes no trades, or loses money. and is making trades at a different time. This can be due to differences in the data feed (brokerage) or the time zone you are using.
By testing on a demo account first, and ensuring the settings being used are proper, you can protect your capital. Once you are sure everything is working right, then put the EA on a live account with the same brokerage and settings. |
