EA Verification Lab
An EA is judged by verification data, not by sales copy. For every EA we publish, the raw MT5 Strategy Tester real-tick output is listed unedited, ordered from the smallest maximum drawdown upward.
Market-wide scan
Before lining up our own EAs, we measured the market. These are the results of running popular MQL5 Market EAs, one after another, on real ticks in an identical environment.
831
EAs tested
179
Completed
69
Passed the gate
0
True out-of-sample survivors
Even among the 69 that passed the gate, most were built after the test period ended. Read the build date back out of the .ex5 header and not a single EA survives on data it never saw.
