Are the bots really free?
Yes. There is no price and no subscription. The one condition: a live account with our partner broker, funded with at least $1,000. We earn from that broker partnership, not from you. Your money stays in your own broker account; we never hold it. Trading is risky, so only deposit what you can afford to lose.
Is the bot the same as the track record?
Not exactly. The track record was traded by hand on our own real account, following a portfolio of manual strategies. We have since automated those same strategies into the bots, and you can access them for free. But code does not trade exactly like a person: entries, exits and timing are fixed rules, so the automated versions will not repeat the manual results and could do worse. The few trades on this account tagged by an Expert Advisor were early tests, not the bots' results. The bots are still in testing; when they have a live record of their own, we will publish it on FXBlue next to this one. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Why is 0DDsider contrarian?
0DDsider is one bot in our portfolio, which mixes several strategies; it is one part of the method, not all of it. It trades against the crowd because most retail traders lose. Brokers' own published risk warnings show that most retail CFD accounts lose money. So when retail positioning gets extreme on one side (for example 70% or more, per sentiment data), 0DDsider looks at the other side. It only acts if the higher-timeframe trend agrees (the daily 50 and 200 EMAs), a second, independent source of positioning or liquidity data is not leaning with the crowd, and no high-impact news is due. Every trade has a hard stop. If nothing qualifies, it sits out. It is a filter, not a guarantee: crowds can stay one-sided for a long time, and contrarian trades lose too.
What do I get as a member?
Access to a portfolio that mixes several strategies, delivered as free MT5 bots. Three are named so far: 0DDsider (trades against the crowd at extremes), ORB0DD (New York opening range breakout) and 0DD Sweep (trades the snap back after a stop sweep at a major level). They are designed for two uses: working within prop-firm challenge rules such as daily loss limits and maximum drawdown, and trading your own capital with risk sized to you. The goal is to be profitable in the markets over time, but that is an aim, not a promise. The bots are still in testing, and their results will differ from our manual record.
Does ORB0DD trade all day?
No. By default it only watches the opening range of the New York session and takes a couple of trades a day at most. Once it hits its daily cap, it stops looking.
Why does 0DD Sweep trade against the trend?
That's the idea. It buys swept support only when the daily trend is down, and sells swept resistance only when it is up. It's hunting for exhaustion, not chasing momentum. If the trend keeps going, the stop takes the loss.
Can I use the bots for prop-firm challenges?
They are built with prop-firm rules in mind, such as daily loss limits and maximum drawdown. But every firm sets its own rules on Expert Advisors, copy trading and running the same strategy as other traders, so check your firm's terms before you use any bot. Prop challenges can be failed, and often are. Nothing here promises a pass, funding or a payout, and results vary.
Who verifies the numbers?
FXBlue, an independent third-party site, reads the results straight from the trading account. We pull the figures from FXBlue and draw the charts ourselves. The full statement is public on FXBlue.
Can I lose money?
Yes. Trading forex, metals and crypto CFDs with leverage is high risk and you can lose more than you expect, quickly. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
Which platform do the bots run on?
MetaTrader 5 (MT5). FX majors and crosses, gold and other metals, and crypto pairs offered on MT5.
Do you offer coaching?
Yes, paid 1-to-1 sessions on risk, position sizing and running EAs on MT5. Ask in our Telegram community.
