ParticipantFXIFY 50K One Step Challenge
In the FXblue Stats below I am showing the trailing 7 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. In this challenge I am using the Prop Firm app robots. I am selecting the robots on a daily basis as necessary using the one week charts. Based upon the current statistics I should be able to complete this challenge in about three months.

In the FXblue Stats below I am showing the trailing 7 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. In this challenge I am using the Prop Firm app robots. I am selecting the robots on a daily basis as necessary using the one week top 3 or 4 robots. Statistics show this challenge gains 4.5% per week. Based upon these stats I should be able to complete the one step challenge and get funded in the next week or two.

ParticipantFXIFY 50K One Step Challenge
In the FXblue Stats below I am showing the complete 40 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. Over the last few weeks the challenge has been going through a stagnation period with a small drawdown. It now looks like the challenge is starting to profit again. I started out using the Prop Firm robots but have changed to using robots I created using EA Studio. I will either use Prop firm robots or my own robots going forward based upon which ones I think will do better. Over the last few weeks I have not been updating the robots on a daily basis but changed to updating them on a weekly basis. Statistics show this challenge has 4.0% monthly return on average over the last 40 days. Based upon these stats I should be able to complete the one step challenge and get funded in approximately one more month.

ParticipantFXIFY 50K One Step Challenge
The FXblue Stats below shows the complete 47 day statistics of my FXIFY 50K one step challenge. To pass the challenge the account equity needs to reach $55000. As can be seen the account has approximately $1662 to go. In this challenge I am using a combination of Prop Firm robots and robots I created using EA Studio. The stats show this account has an average monthly return of 4.8% which indicates the account should easily become funded in less than a month. However, I have a problem! The FXIFY prop firm has now migrated my trading terminal to DXTrade which means I can no longer use my robots. So, what I am going to do is to use my Infinity Forex Fund funded account and copy trade to my FXIFY challenge account. To do this I need to move my robots from my FXIFY account to my IFF account. However, I am not so nieve to think I can just move my robots from my FXIFY account to my IFF account and they will continue to trade as normal. So I back-tested all my FXIFY robots using EA Studio to see how they perform using the Infinity Forex Fund historical data. In doing so I found that the robots did not perform as well with the IFF historical data as they did with the FXIFY historical data. So I need to make some changes to the robots before I can continue with my FXIFY challenge.

This week I learned Infinity Forex Fund (IFF) is switching from using the MetaTrader trade terminals to using the DXTrade terminal. So I will not be able to use the MT4 terminal in IFF to copy trade to my FXIFY 50K One Step Challenge. As a result I will now continue with my FXIFY prop firm trading account by copy trading from my forex broker account using my MT4 terminal to the DXTrade terminal. I will start posting trade statistics next week.

Hi Traders,
Over the last few weeks I have been busy creating Expert Advisors using EA Studio and testing them on my TradingDotCom demo account and testing a couple different DXTrade copiers on a couple of my prop firm accounts. I will continue my testing for the next week or two. Once I am satisfied will the results of the Expert Advisors and the trade copier I am going to be using I will once again start posting my results of this challenge.

Hi Traders,
On July 9th I started an FXIFY One Step Challenge. On September 20th I passed the challenge and received a 50K funded account. In this challenge I used the Prop Firm robots from July 9th until August 16th. In mid August I learned FXIFY was no longer allowing traders in the US to use Metatrader and was migrating to using the DXtrade trading platform throwing a curve ball into my trading strategy. So from August 16th through September 11th there was no trading while I figured out how to continue this challenge. I then decided to use my forex brokerage account and copy trade from MT5 to DXtrade. I then started creating new expert advisors using EA Studio. From September 11th through September 18th I continued trading this challenge using the expert advisors I created. On September 15th the expert advisors started going through a drawdown. On September 18th, to keep the challenge from drawing down any further, I decided to manual trade this challenge on the DXtrade platform. On September 20th I passed the challenge.

ParticipantI’m a US trader. I need help navigating all of this.

ParticipantWhich Forex broker are you using that allows EAs?
November 18, 2024 at 12:16 pm #378866Alan Northam
ParticipantHi Bruce,
I used Trading.com and copy traded to FXIFY.

ParticipantHi Bruce,
No problem. I would ask you to use the links above which will then give me credit. Also, feel free to ask questions. Trading.com only allows one demo account but has years of data history which makes it usable for creating EA’s using EA Studio.

ParticipantActually I have another question. The prop firm robots on this page: https://platform.algotradingspace.com/premium-robots/prop-firm-robots/app/
Are these compatible with US trading rules or do we have to modify them so that they are?
November 18, 2024 at 1:14 pm #378878Alan Northam
ParticipantHi Bruce,
Yes the prop firm robots can be used in the US. Here is the problem with using prop firm robots. They were created using BlackBull historical data. So when you use them with other brokers the results will be different from what is shown in the app. Such as, the top performing robots in the app may not be the top performing robots with a different broker. The solution I have found, if you do not have EA Studio, is to collect all the prop firm robots and put them in a demo account for at least one month. Also each week of so, new robots are added to the app. Take these robots and add them to your demo account. Keep doing this each week. After about a month you will start to see which of the prop firm robots work best with your broker. Now you can select the best performing robots to add to a live account or copy trade to a prop firm.

ParticipantThere is one change you will need to make is to set the Max Open Positions to 1. This is done in the EA’s properties box.
