Prop Firm EA Selection

[Florian Ernst]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask how you select your Prop Firm EAs.

What I’ve been doing is: I go to the site, enter my current account size, then filter by strategy – for example by OOF – and pick the top 3–4 EAs based on the last week’s (1W) performance.

But despite that, I’ve been losing money for the past 4 weeks with these selected EAs.

So my question is:
How do you go about selecting EAs?
What’s the best method or strategy you’ve found to consistently pick profitable ones?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Florian,

Selecting the most suitable Expert Advisors (EAs), regardless of the vendor, is always a challenge. Specifically regarding the Prop Firm App EAs, we continuously test different strategies to identify the most effective ones.

Recently, we successfully passed a challenge using the following approach:

We run all our prop robots on a demo account.
Every Monday, we review the past 7 days to determine which instrument delivered the highest net profit.
We then apply that instrument to the challenge account for the upcoming week, using the top-performing robots from the previous week. (If none of the robots were profitable, we don’t set anything.)
Thanks to regular weekly EA updates and our robust randomization feature, we’ve remained fully compliant with prop firm rules while maximizing performance.

The best approach is to test on a demo account from the prop firm you plan to trade with.

Best regards,
Mariya
