ParticipantHi Aretri,
Interesting question! I have an FTMO Challenge and an Infinity Forex Fund Algo Evaluation, which uses 8cap, and the FTMO and IFF funds both very closely track each other but are not exactly duplicating each other. I am happy with the comparison between FTMO and IFF. Why your 8cap broker is not closely tracking FTMO while IFF is, mostly likely has to do with the 8cap broker and IFF using different servers.
I have been happy with FTMO and Infinity Forex Funds.

ParticipantHi Anthony,
I have an FTMO Challenge with two open trades USDCAD and XAUUSD. Are you using FTMO another prop firm?

ParticipantHi Nchele,
This chart shows I have two open trades in my FTMO 50K Challenge. As can be seen the FTMO robots do open trades.

For better clarity right click on image and click on open image in new tab.As to how long it takes to get your refund I do not know the answer. You would have to ask that question when you ask for a refund.

ParticipantI have two FTMO robots with open trades, USDCAD M5 V6.1 and XAUUSD M5 V6.1. USDUSD is now in profit of $80 with increasing profits. XAUUSD in decreasing its loss but has not yet turned profitable. So far, so good!

ParticipantHi Tanyeem,
I too have been waiting for two months for the robots to start profitable trades. I have learned over many years of trading that there will be some extended periods of stagnations / drawdowns but I have also learned that after this period is over huge profits usually come. I am anxiously awaiting for the profits!

ParticipantHi Chris,
With the new FTMO app it is no longer necessary to test the Expert Advisors as the app does this for you.
I would suggest trying different strategies to see which one works for you. Sometimes Petko will use just one Expert Advisor to complete an FTMO Challenge and sometimes he will use three.
I would suggest using the Expert Advisors in a FREE FTMO demo account until you are comfortable with a successful strategy.

ParticipantHi Nchele,
It took me several years to learn how to be a successful trader. What I have learned over the many years of trading is Patience. I wish you would stick it out and learn how to be a successful trader.
Just ask for a refund at [email protected]

ParticipantHi Nchele,
I too have not had any profit in the robots over the last two months. Sometimes, as traders, we will go through a protracted stagnation period, but as I have learned since starting my trading career in 1985, yes I am an old man, after the dry spell comes the rain. I am expecting some good profits in the near future. I am sorry to hear you giving up on the robots!
Please send your refund request to [email protected]

ParticipantHi James,
The question you asked at the beginning of this thread was “I have been running the robot for 4 days now and it hasn’t trade even once. Anything I missed?”. You then showed AUDCHF.pi – 1 sell & 1 buy @ m5 -$750 since January 1.2024.
I used the MT4 Strategy Tester on an FTMO Challenge to test AUDCHF V6.1 M5. It shows 16 trades over the last 30 days or about 1 trade every other day and a profit $784.49. So it looks like there is an issue using your broker. You can verify my results by testing the AUDCHF Expert Advisor on a FREE FTMO demo account.

ParticipantHi James,
I am running short on time now. I will be away from my pc for the next few hours. I will do an analysis on a couple of the pairs and will report later on.

ParticipantHi James,
You can test the Expert Advisors by using the Strategy Tester. From the results you can see how often the Expert Advisors trade with your prop firm / broker.
