Hi Valentina,
I get your point, but the whole idea behind the app is to have the best EAs, without having hundreds running on demo accounts. To eliminate demo trading.
The EAs don’t disappear. They are still in our collections, and they are validated against historical data – the last 5 years – every Saturday. So, the best EAs/strategies are always in the app. That’s why you might see an EA that was created 80 or 90 days ago, and added 18 days ago for example.
Thanks,
IlanHey Marco,
Check the Minimum Equity settings in the EA inputs. The value needs to be less than your account balance. This is a protection setting. Once you hit the pre-defined minimum equity, the EA turns off to protect your account.
Thanks,
IlanHi Sagar,
There is only one link to the app – the one you’re using. If you are using the app, you are using the latest version. It’s an online app.
But, if you want to see the version of your EA, once downloaded, open the file in MetaEditor or Notepad, and you’ll see the version number there.

Hi Boyan,
The daily reset time will be according to the prop firm/broker’s server time.
Thanks,
IlanHey Sagar,
You won’t see the version of the EA when you download it. You’ll see the info on the chart when you attach it.
If your broker uses a suffix, don’t worry. Use the EA as it is. The suffix doesn’t affect the functionality in any way.Thanks,
Ilan
The process is as follows:
The Express Generator runs 24 hours a day, creating EAs based on certain criteria. Every Saturday, the Collections – old and new are analyzed and the best strategies are added to the app. The older strategies don’t disappear or get deleted, they’re kept and analysed weekly. Should one of the older strategies perform best on the backtest in that week, in relation to the others, it will be re-added.But, if you’ve downloaded the ‘old’ robots, and you have them trading on a another account – demo or otherwise – you still have access to them and can use them at any time.
Thanks,
Ilan
Hi Vincent,
If you’re seeing the blue hat in the corner of the chart, the EA has attached successfully. If the EA didn’t place a trade when it was supposed to, this must be down to the broker or settings. I’d suggest running a backtest for the last week or 2 and see if it should/would have opened a trade on FTMO. If it does have a trade in the backtest, the problem lies with the broker not executing the trade.
Thanks,
IlanHey Ksenija,
Yes, the PDF was recently updated. You can download it from the same place.
Thanks,

Hi Emanuele,
I’ve asked Marin to take a look and let us know what the issue is. I’ll revert asap.

Hi Orlando,
Just to add to Alan’s answer, before downloading the Prop Firm Robots, we select the profit targets and risk settings. This is added into the code / settings of the Prop Firm Robots, so once the profit target is reached, all prop firm robots will stop trading. They do work independently of each other, but because they have the same account profit targets coded into them, they’ll turn off at the same time, when the targets (or drawdown limits) are reached. Any other EAs will not because they don’t have the profit targets included.

Hey penguin,
I’ll forward this to Marin and ask him to take a look; I’ll revert once I hear back.
Cheers,
Hey Orlando,
Great to hear! While you’re testing on a demo account, try a few other methods. You may be surprised by the results :-)
Trade safe,
Ilan
Hi Varun,
Please also let us know the following or send screenshots:
The modelling option you’re using for the backtest.
The leverage of the account
The lot sizes.It’s important to note that the EAs are created with a starting balance of $10K, and trade size of 0.1 lots. I see your account started with $1000, so trading 0.1 lots on this account is very risky.
Please share the above and additional screenshots.
Thanks,
Ilan
