Quick Scalp Trader EA by William Morrison
www.leapfx.com
Trading started 15 August 2018 and ceased 4 October 2018
Public reviews here.
Default settings used.
Brainyforex has tested Quick Scalp Trader by William Morrison for 61
days. Started on 12 August 2018 with $5,000 on our demo account and
finished with $4,581.83 on 4 October 2018.
The system made 77 trades. Half being eur and the other gbp. Of those, 67 were winners and 10 losing.
Even
though most were winners, the large stop loss (large compared to the
systems take profit) caused the system to end up with a loss of -$418.17
after the two months.
This system was only tested for the two
months because in early October a new updated version was released and
this ended the current version under test.
Overall, installation, and the software's functioning was flawless but the strategies large stop loss is a apparent problem?
We
thank the system developer for providing a review copy and hope they
can consider improving the "rather large stop loss" parameter so as to
make it more viable across a larger set of market conditions.

Default settings used. M15
Testing commenced 13 March 2017. Public reviews here.
Read interview here.
www.forexrealprofitea.com
NB: From 17 July 2017 customized settings used in an effort to increase monthly returns .
Our testing of Forex Real Profit EA was not all on default settings for
the whole time period of testing. From 13 March 2017 to 17 July 2017
default settings and currencies were used on our demo account. The
system was showing a small profit of about 1% per month during this time
but this profit would not have been as much on a real trading account
due to market fills being worse on a real account vs the demo account.
From
18 July 2017 to 8 February 2018 custom settings and currencies were
used with increased risk settings in order to try and improve on the
default settings and currencies. Unfortunately, this resulted in the
system producing a loss during this time.
Overall, the system
made 261 trades, 154 were winners and 107 were losers. The beginning
demo account started with $5,000 on 13 March 2017 and finished with
$4,967.32 on the 8 February 2018, just one month short of a year of
testing.
FRPEA software functioned perfectly over our time of
testing with no known failures of any kind. It is also good to hear that
a new improved strategy has come out from the beginning of 2018.
Brainyforex
verdict about this system is that it is worthwhile giving it a try with
recommended settings and currencies and a ecn broker account with low
spreads / no spreads. The right choice of broker and account type is
essential for any chance of success.
Rocket EA by Tulipfx
Testing started 3 July 2017 and finished 18 September 2017. Default settings. GBP/USD M5.
www.tulipfx.com
Public reviews here.
Important note from developers : Rocket is a fully automated trading strategy designed to deliver high
returns. However, with high returns comes high risk and we recommend to
either withdraw profits on a regular basis or move profits to another
trading account.
Brainyforex testing of Rocket EA started on 4th July 2017 with $3,000.00
demo money account. This system is a grid trading system that can
produce many profitable trading days in a row until it gives up all
those profits and more due to big market moving days which don't
retrace. This is the main problem with grid traders - they will catch
you out unexpectedly by unexpected large moves and that is certainly
what happened with Rocket EA.
Within two weeks our account lost
the initial $3,000.00 due to just one bad day. Another $3,000.00 demo
money was added and a nice recovery was taking place until the market
had a big bullish move in the British Pound which caused one trade to be
in a floating negative amount of $800.80. The equity balance was
$1,287.16 and with such a big draw down it was time to call it a day for
this system. The final stats was 331 total trades, 163 winners and 167
losing. 22 Winning days and only the 2 unprofitable days that lost most
of the accounts balance.
The developers have since changed the
trading strategy to make it a lot safer, but I still need convincing
that grid trading systems can work over the longer term? It is
recommended to watch their live trading account to see if they can make
some long term profits trading it? They do recommend that the system is
not just left to accumulate profits but rather to withdraw profits on a
regular basis so as to reduce risk. Can this be done? Guess it depends
if you get a good clean run of a string of profits before the big losing
day comes? As for our brainyforex testing, we got hit with a few large
market moves early in the piece so we did not have a chance to
accumulate decent profits. The first time it made about three hundred
dollar before it lost most of its balance and then the second time it
accumulated profits of about a thousand dollars.
The developers do say its a risky trading strategy and in our case it was a good thing that we were using a demo money account.
WallStreet Forex Robot 2.0 Evolution by FXAutomater
Default settings used. M15 EUR/USD, GBP/USD & USD/JPY.
Testing commenced 14 March 2017 and finished 22 June 2017. Read review in Public reviews here.
www.wallstreet-forex.com or
www.fxautomater.com (extra bundled EA's)
We ran Wallstreet Forex Robot 2.0 Evolution on a IC Markets demo account
for 100 days. From 14 March 2017 to 22 June 2017. The default settings
were used.
We started the test with $5,000 and ended with a
balance of $4,831.95. That being -$168.05 loss overall. The robot made
102 trades with 73 being winners and 29 losers. The average win amount
was $10.53 and the average loss was $32.29, with average trade length
4.4 hours.
The three currencies performed as follows;
EUR/USD $180.12 profit with 85% win rate.
GBP/USD -$431.70 loss with 58% win rate.
USD/JPY $83.53 profit with 85% win rate.
Overall
the software performed faultlessly also providing warnings when the
Metatrader VPS terminal was functioning poorly. For example when trade
opening or trade closing was taking too long to execute. Over the period
of the test this did happen from time to time with my VPS service and
if I were running this EA on a real money account I would have to make
sure this issue was taken care of.
My VPS may have contributed a
little for sub-optimum results that were achieved? It is interesting to
note that both EUR/USD and USD/JPY both achieved a 85% hit rate with a
profit and GBP/USD performed so poorly in comparison.
For anyone
interested in buying this EA, it would prove handy to check out the
prior years performance of these three currencies with the view of only
running EUR/USD and USD/JPY? This can be done through myfxbook by
analyzing the prior year results for each currency through the custom
tab.
CovertFX by Jared Rybeck
Public reviews here.
Website : www.covertfx.com
Brainyforex started testing on 1 September 2016 on demo account with IC Markets. Jared's live account is through FX Choice on his myfxbook account.
Read more about brainyforex's progressive review here.
Talk to Jared at his new forum www.corruptforex.com
Testing for this EA ceased on 13 March 2017 as CovertFX has not produced
any profit since testing started six and a half months ago on 1
September 2016. IC Markets demo account.
Total loss for period was -$1,740.21. It made 557
trades, 283 winners and 274 losers. Tested for six and a half months.
Two of those months showing profits and the others loses.
It was observed that this EA has the ability to recover losses if the market moves in it's favor.
It
is worth watching the vendors independent third party verified live
account to see where it goes from here. As it normally goes, since
testing finished a few profitable trades came through.
If trading
results pick up from here it would mean that Brainyforex's testing was
during a drawdown period and this EA. If it can manage some 100%
profitable months due to market conditions it may be worth purchasing if
you can handle larger type of drawdowns without stressing out.
Inertia Trader by Evan Goldstein
Brainyforex testing 19 December 2016 to 13 March 2017.
EUR/USD M5 & M15 charts and
GBP/USD M5 & M15 (upsell)
Website : www.inertiatrader.com
Public reviews here.
Interview here.
Brainyforex can confirm that the live trading results produced by
Inertia Trader EA on their third party verified account at myfxbook are
reported accurately.
Our testing started on 19 December 2016 with
a $1,000 demo account with IC Markets and ceased on 13 March 2017 with
$726.50 balance. ie a -$273.50 loss for the period. 64 trades. 19
winners and 45 losers.
Unfortunately brainyforex testing was
during a drawdown period BUT our main objective was to verify that the
results as shown through myfxbook were those produced by Inertia Trader
EA.
Even though this system has produced a loss for the prior
three months it still may recover from these losses and produce profits
into the future. It is worthwhile to continue to watch how this EA
performs. If it does do well over the next 6 months I will purchase a
personal copy.
During testing the program functioned well and
setup was straight forward. The upsell currency GBP/USD did produce a
profit of $80.24 (26 trades) ie 8% for 10 weeks as I added GBP/USD in
early January 2017. I also noticed that this system has the ability to
recover fast once it gets a few winning trades.
Overall, I look
forward to watching it's future performance as I think it may have
potential? I have limited space on my VPS and hence need to put other
EA's on test so testing finishes for this system.
My conclusion
on this system is a recommended buy if you like the results over the
next 6 months as reported through myfxbook.

KeltnerPRO EA by Jared Rybeck
Brainyforex can confirm that Jared Rybeck's real live account results shown on his website are the real deal.
Brainyforex
has run two tests on KeltnerPro EA. The first test was going well until
the Swiss Bank's shock announcement that sent the USD/CHF currency pair
into free fall. This once in a decade event impacted the small account
balance that was on test so a second test was started. The second test
results showed the following;
Tested 4 months (118 days) starting
28 January 2015 $5,000 and finishing on 22 May 2015 with closing
balance $12,512.58. ie 150.2% Profit. It made 164 trades in total, 90
winners and 74 losers. Drawdown 11.8%. Profit factor 2.12. Check main
testing page for detailed statistics here https://www.brainyforex.com/automatic-forex-trading-systems.html
Even
thought this test was run on a demo account, it provides proof that the
live results shown by Jared through myfxbook are correct and
trustworthy.
The software performed well with no issues and Jared responded to emails in a timely manner.
RevTraderPro EA by Doug Price
Brainyforex tested this EA for about 5 months. (146 days). Started 12 November 2014 with $5,000 and finished on 8 April 2015 $5,292.46. (Demo money).
This EA is currently being run on a public live account at myfxbook.
The public results and brainyforex results have been very slow for the prior several months but we recommend keeping an eye on the future results for this EA through the above myfxbook link. Brainyforex has confirmed that the results shown through myfxbook are true and legitimate.
Brainyforex's experience using this EA has been very good. The software was reliable and stable. Doug is honest in displaying all his trade results through myfxbook (ie no hidden fields as some vendors use). Also, support questions were answered promptly and Doug keeps in contact with his users advising when to turn off the EA due to impending high impact news announcements or when making changes to currency pairs being traded.
Summary of brainyforex trading statistics as follows; After 146 days. Net profit 5.8%, 64 winning trades, 38 losing trades. Nov $151.67, Dec $595.60, Jan $173.33, Feb $(-86.42), March $(-476.31), 1st week April $(-65.41).

Forex Warrior by ArgoLab
Brainyforex tested this EA for 160 days. Opening balance 2 April 2014 $5,000. Closing balance -$1,706.64 on 8 September 2014. In just over 5 months it made 289 trades in total being profitable each week until the last one. Tested on one currency pair GBP/USD Recommended default preset 1 hour GBP/USD. [fw_gbpusd_set_1a]
This grid trading system just could not handle the market moving down in a big way for 5 days straight. All it's accumulated profits and starting balance ($9,006.80) was lost in one day on the 8th September when the market opened down again after the weekend.
Very large non-trending market moves do happen on occasion and these situations create huge problems for grid trading systems as we have seen with Forex Warrior EA.

slowdown. Incredible system designed by Angela Adams.
Currently running 2nd demo test on mini account with FinFX.
The second demo account showed that the 225 pip stop loss did not activate with the default settings.
Update at 25 March 2011
Looks like there is a major problem with this trading system. I
thought there may have been a problem that I may have created setting it
up that caused the stop loss of 225 pips to malfunction. Not so!
Another forex review site has had the same problem.
The forex review site believes that PipsGeek developers
programmed it so that there is no stop loss in an effort to increase its
accuracy rate.
This goes to show that it is important to test forex robots
thoroughly on demo accounts first with different account balances for a
reasonable length of time.
I have tried to contact the developers with no response from them.
At this stage view PipsGeek as a MAJOR PROBLEM! (Nice way of saying scam).
ForexGeek http://www.forexgeek.com
Tested on demo account for 86 days. (4 November 2010 to 28 Jan 2011).
Opening balance $10,000. Closing balance $10,114.42.(includes floating trades).
Broker Alpari UK
548 Winning trades, 110 losers, 15 floating with -$8,166.63 loss.
Average length trades open was 28.38 hours.
This robot was demo tested for 86 days. During that period it
consistently produced a profit of 22.7% each month after waiting for
losing trades to recover into profit. The system opens many trades at a
time and holds onto the losing trades until they turn around into profit
or large stop loss is activated. I have no doubt that the 15 floating
trades that were left open when I took it off demo testing would have
bounced back as had most of the other ones over the testing period. This
robot has shown that it can perform with the best of them, however it
does worry me that so many losing trades are left waiting for a
recovery. A lot of margin and patience is required to trade this
automated trading software.
ForexGeek blew up a trading account on a another forex robot review site.
Kangaroo EA V6.2
http://www.tulipfx.com
Setup on demo and real money account.
Decided to stop real money account on the 15 June 2011 until strategy amended for fast moving market.
Kangaroo EA V6.2 has a problem coping with a "continued falling
or rising market". The strategy keeps opening positions one after the
other as the market continues to stretch in one direction. The problem
has been that when the market does not retrace, Kangaroo EA ends up with
a string of losses that wipes out a lot (or most) of its prior steady
gains.
I believe the developers of this system should be able to find a
solution to this problem and I will restart the live account a bit later
on in time.
This system was achieving consistent profits of about 15% per
month until big unexpected moves took place which the news filter could
not prevent. (The news filter was designed to prevent the robot from
trading during fast market conditions).
Overall, happy with everything about this system and developers except for this one issue.
Public reviews here.
The real money account uses risk setting of 2 instead of default level 5. Both pairs were set to trade consecutively.
Brainyforex is not currently testing Kangaroo EA but may resume testing in the future.

Leo Trader Pro http://www.leotraderpro.com
Tested on demo account from 4th February 2011.
This EA is advertised as a robot that can double your account
every month. Unfortunately, so far in its 57 days of demo testing it has
reduced a $10,000 account down to $9,506.89.
The problem has been that two large stop loss have been hit
within the 57 day time period. Each loss is set at 330 pips. This has
caused the robot to remain unprofitable as take profit targets have only
been 16 pips average.
It will be a long road to recovery at this rate.
Have also noticed that there are regular problems with the
failure for the system to re-start after disconnection problems with the
software.
On 29 September 2011, ceased testing LeoTrader due to poor
performance. As shown in the graphic below after 244 days the loss was
107.19.
The system had a 93% win rate with 104 profitable trades and 8 losing trades. Unfortunately, each winning trade was small and each losing trade was large (330 pips).
Forex Crescendo http://www.forexcrescendo.com
Traded this system on demo account from 7 October 2010 starting with $10,000 and ceased on 16 May 2011 (219 days) with $8,774.27.
This system traded extremely well for the first three months and then fell from grace with a few bad days.
Can see that the problem with this system was when market moved
quickly in one direction and did not retrace. As it's a volatility based
system it looses all its profits when the market stops moving sideways,
which does happen about three to four times a year on average.
Very sad to see this system fail after consistent winning periods.

Forex BulletProof http://www.forexbulletproof.com
This system is still in active testing as it is consistently doing well. .
It must be run on a MICRO account due to money management reasons.
Brainyforex decided to test it on a normal account to see what would happen;
MIG BANK forex broker with brainyforex's altered money management settings. Tested system using lot size of 1.00 instead of 0.01.(1:500 Leverage) (Non-recommended classic account instead of micro account). Software interface recognized risk and issued warning. Result was huge gain followed by huge loss.
2nd account with MIG BANK, different account type with brainyforex's altered money management settings. Tested system with non-recommended 'mini account' instead of 'micro account' lot size of 1.00 instead of 0.01. (1:200 Leverage).
Also, Non-live results after 1 month (via demo account IamFX)
(IamFX only allow 30 day demo account.)
Update at 28 November 2011
Forex Bulletproof has now been taken off demo test and will no longer be tested.
The history of this robot was that it was placed on a $10,000.00
demo account and produced small but consistent gains. The profits were
very small compared to the initial deposit of $10k. In order to improve
results the systems default settings were doubled. The software gave
warnings that this was above the recommended risk level.
The profits generated were more reasonable with the $10k account
but in the end some large losses ended this robots testing at
brainyforex. See the statement below for the string of large losses.
The end analysis for this robot is that it seems unable to cope
with large moves that do not reverse. A common problem for a lot of
robots. New lots are continually opened in an effort to recover prior
losses. When these big fast moves take place that do not reverse then
that's when the robots small consistent profits get wiped out very
quickly.
From 3 August 2011, increased lot sizes traded as follows;
EUR/USD from 0.09 lots (default) to 0.18 lots.
USD/JPY from 0.01 lots (default) to 0.10 lots.

Million Dollar Pips EA by William Morrison
http://www.milliondollarpips.com
This system must be run on the lowest spread broker possible along
with fast latency VPS service. This means that the VPS service and
broker should be located as close as possible. [If spreads are too high
and latency speed is a problem the software will issue warning messages
to this effect but may still try and place some trades].
Tested on real money account through Finfx.fi (non-ecn account)
from 15th to 20th September 2011. Produced 28 trades of which 3 were
profitable and 25 were losers. Loss of $85.01 on the $488 account. The
software program reported that there was a problem with the speed of
trade execution (latency) between broker and vps provider. The recorded
speed was 142ms. This was a problem on my side of things because my vps
host is located in America and broker in Finland. For best VPS and
broker speed it is best to have both as close as possible.
Million Dollar Pips EA is programed with a 5 pips stop loss.
There were several losses of 12,13,15 and 16 pips which should not have
occurred. This means that the problem was due to either too high spreads
on my Finfx account or the speed of execution or a combination of both.
This EA is now being tested through Thinkforex.com broker.
Looking at a different selection of review sites around the world
it looks like this EA is very successful on the right combination of
low spread broker and fast VPS connection.
[Demo account ran from 10 August to 14 Sept 2011. In 36 days made
307 trades resulting in initial deposit of $250 growing to $507.01.]

EurClimber http://www.eurclimber.com/
Tested on two demo accounts for several months. Final test was
from 26 September 2011 to 14 November 2011. 45 days with a net loss of
-2.9%.
System made profits followed by equal loses on a consistent
basis. Looks like a safe trading strategy was employed but just did not
produce a growing account.
Trades EUR/GBP & USD/CHF 15 minute.

Haru EA by Haru Miyagi http://www.haruea.com
Brainyforex tested this robot from 15 November 2011 to 18 January 2012. (About two months).
Opening balance $5,000. End balance $4,536.34
The robot placed 62 trades with 28 winners and 34 losers.
Average trade time was 28.7 hours.
Overall lost -376.4 pips. Haruea system was always moving
backwards and forwards between profit and loss. The programming was
solid but the strategy was let down by a string of losses after it made
some profits.
Brainyforex hopes Haru will come back with a stronger strategy
and we look forward to helping him redeem this two month losing patch.

This system seemed to die a slow death, until owner did not bother with
it anymore! After independent third party results went bad, the system
was stopped and nothing more has been heard!

Forex Insider Pro (Automated Forex Robot)
Hard to obtain third party results for this robot. One review site that
traded many different currency pairs with it ended up with no real
change in the account after five months. I believe this robot is suppose
to only trade the EUR/USD pair? I have not had a reply to my email from
the owner.
