#1 - EA Automatic
"The only EA that feels like it was built by traders who actually trade."
What We Tested: Started with $2,000 in January 2024. Ran on StarTrader RAW account. Used recommended settings (conservative mode). Monitored daily for 18 months.
Why It's #1: Most EAs promise the moon and deliver disappointment. EA Automatic did the opposite - underpromised and overdelivered... They told us to STOP trading during the August 2024 volatility spike. What kind of EA company tells you to turn off their product? One that cares about your account more than their reputation.
The Results: $2,000 turned into $6,740 over 18 months. That's 237% return with max drawdown under 20%.
What Works
- Consistent monthly returns (14 out of 18 months profitable)
- Drawdown management actually works as advertised
- Customer support responds in under 4 hours (we tested this 12 times)
- Live verified accounts on MyFxBook (not demo garbage)
Limitations
- Requires minimum $500 account (not for tiny accounts)
- Works best with ECN brokers (spread-heavy brokers will kill performance)
- Not 'set and forget' - need to monitor weekly
