Founder · AlgoVerdict at Pitt Petruschke
Algo trader and EA developer from Germany. Founder of AlgoVerdict (algoverdict.com) – independent tests of Expert Advisors, brokers and signal platforms based on live accounts.

On MQL5 I publish 7 Expert Advisors (Dawnbreak, LongRunner, Second Wind, Relay, Snapback Pro, Fairway, RecoveryPilot) and 5 utilities, 3 of them free. I run my own EAs on real-money accounts. Every product has a guide with all settings in my blog, and all of them are listed in one overview post.

New on the Market: Snapback Pro EA – multi pair reversal grid (MT5)

Days on which a pair runs far beyond yesterday's range are rare, and the move often snaps back. Snapback waits for such a stretch, lets the first pullback show and then enters against it. If price keeps going, it works the trade as a linear grid (no exponential martingale) until the whole basket can be closed with a trailing stop. One EA on one chart trades up to 20 pairs, with at most 5 pairs at risk at the same time.

MT5 real-tick backtests (RoboForex ECN, Jan 2025 – Oct 2026, 0.01 start lot): 3 pairs +2,637 USD with 818 USD max. drawdown, 7 pairs +3,606 USD with 1,147 USD (started with 3,000 USD). Please note: it is a grid without a stop loss per order, and the set files use no equity stop. All 20 pairs on 3,000 USD reached a stop out in March 2026, so the capital per set matters.

Three set files by account size (2,500 / 5,000 / 5,000 USD) are attached to the guide and posted in the comments. Launch price 99 USD, +15 USD after every 10 copies sold.

Moves like that rarely last.

Drawdown Minimizer for MetaTrader 5 - your EAs pay in, old losers get paid off. This utility runs next to your other Expert Advisors and never opens a trade. It keeps a savings book of the net realized profit of your whole account and uses it to close the oldest losing positions of the EAs you choose - slice by slice, oldest first. WHY IT EXISTS Made by traders, for traders. One of our grid EAs got stuck in drawdown for months. The old positions did not come back, and they paid swap every single

You run several EAs on one account, plus a few trades by hand. The balance shows the total. It doesn't show which EA earns the money and which one gives it back. Magic Stats reads the deal history of your MT5 account and shows one row per magic number : how each EA has actually performed, in any period you choose. It is an indicator, so it sits on a chart next to any EA. It never opens, changes or closes a trade. What you see for every EA (magic number) Name and symbols traded Trades , win %

A daily loss limit only helps if it is enforced, also on the day you would rather ignore it. Daily Loss Limit enforces it: you set one line for the day, and when equity reaches it, Daily Loss Limit closes everything and keeps the account flat until the next daily reset. Free, fully working, no time limit. No nag screens, no upgrade prompts inside the program. It never opens a trade on your account. What it does Daily loss limit in money or in % of the day reference (default: 5 %). The day

High-impact news such as Non-Farm Payrolls, CPI or a central-bank rate decision can move a market in seconds: spreads widen, prices gap, pending orders fill far from where you placed them. News Filter reads the economic calendar that is built into MetaTrader 5 and tells you when a news window is coming. If you switch it on, it also clears pending orders, closes positions and publishes a pause flag that your own EAs can read. Free, fully working, no time limit. No nag screens, no upgrade prompts

Weekend news often pushes indices lower on Monday. When that happens while the index is already in a pullback, Tuesday has tended to recover. Second Wind buys on Monday while price is below its moving average and sells at a fixed time on Tuesday. At most one trade per week and symbol. Long

LongRunner takes the daily move and leaves that cost out: a new long position at a fixed server time, closed at a fixed time
