    I have trades that have been running all week. Is this ok, some went from positive to negative?
    Petko’s account shows an average trade length of 6 hours and 56 minutes.

    Hi,

    Currently, I am up +1% in my testing account ($10,000).

    However, after reviewing Petko’s audited account titled “FTMO Robot – Top 1 Scale 25k Challenge FPF,” I have a question: Does Petko close positions manually, or does the EA leave them until TP or SL? (

    Upon checking the positions, only 1 out of 25 hit TP, and 4 hit SL out of 25. The others were closed, apparently manually, because they neither hit TP nor SL.

    When or where should I close the positions (e.g., on Friday afternoon)? Or does the EA close them without hitting TP?

    Thank you, Petko, if you can clarify this!

    Willard are you funded already, or are you in the process? If yes, can you talk about your experience with the FTMO Robot?

    I just did a 1y back testing to EURAUD M15 v6.0 #1486211416:

    * FMO-robot app (website, 1 year): Profit $2,112
    * MT5 (2023/01/01 – 2024/02/02): Profit $1,518

    There is a difference of $594. So does the [EURAUD M15 v6.0 #1486211416] have $594 in open trades? I don’t think so, but hopefully, these robots work.

    I just bought them yesterday, but there is more discussion about errors than actual experiences from successful founded traders. (This could be a potential review, unless I achieve good results :c)

    XAUSD M5 v6.1 claims a profit of $150, but when I tested it on MT5, it only showed $50. Other pairs that I tested showed differences from the results on the FTMO Robot page.

    If I use the FTMO Robot, could FTMO (or another prop firm) deny my account?

    FTMO says: “They also need to keep in mind that if they use a third-party EA, there may already be other traders using the same EA and, therefore, the exact same strategy. By using a third-party EA, traders run the risk of being denied an FTMO Account because they exceed the maximum capital allocation rule.”

    If yes, what can I do? Any recommendations?

    Hi, in the FTMO Robot Parameters

    Should I adjust the ‘max spread’ parameter based on the currency pair (e.g., AUDCHF says spread of 9, and change the ‘max spread’ parameter to 9), or should I just leave it at 0 (zero), which is the default setting?

    Thank you! 😊
