Health Monitor

Is your EA broken — or just unlucky? Stop guessing. Start measuring.

Every algo trader knows the moment: three losses in a row, the equity curve dips, and the doubt creeps in. Do you switch the robot off — or hold on? Guess wrong in either direction and it costs you real money. Kill a healthy EA and you miss its recovery. Trust a broken one and it drains your account, one normal drawdown at a time.

EA Health Monitor removes the guessing. You give it five numbers from your strategy backtest report. It watches every live trade and tells you, in plain language backed by statistics, whether your robot is still performing as it should.

One glance tells you everything. HEALTHY means live performance is within statistical expectations, let it work. WARNING means something is drifting, shown on the panel without notification noise. BROKEN means a statistically significant breakdown, confirmed before you are alerted.

FIVE INDEPENDENT HEALTH CHECKS, EACH WITH REAL MATH

Losing-streak probability. Not "5 losses feels bad" but "6 losses in a row has a 0.8% probability at your stated 55% win rate." Turns a gut feeling into a number.

Win-rate significance (z-test). A one-sided statistical test of your live win rate against your baseline. Tells the difference between random variance and genuine decay.

Profit-factor degradation. Alerts when live profit factor falls below 60% or 40% of your backtest value — the clearest sign an edge is fading.

Exit-mechanics drift. Average win shrinking? Average loss growing? Your trailing stop or stop-loss may be misbehaving under live spreads and slippage.

Silence detector. Your EA stopped opening trades? A frozen robot is invisible on a P&L chart. This catches it before you notice the silence yourself.

BUILT FOR PEACE OF MIND, NOT PANIC

Alerts only on confirmed problems. A single statistical outlier stays on the panel. You are notified only when a RED status is confirmed across two evaluations.

One alert per episode. After a RED alert, the check goes quiet until the robot has been clean for hours, then sends a single recovered message. No alert storms.

Honest about false positives. Validated on a 1,290-trade test bench: roughly 0.6% of trades trigger an episode. For a typical EA running 1 to 3 trades per day, that is a handful of alerts per quarter, each one worth reading. We measured it. We did not hide it.

DESIGNED TO FIT YOUR SCREEN

Monitors up to 3 robots at once by magic number. On-chart panel with 5 positions, adjustable colors, font size and offset. Or switch to a clean text display, your choice. Push notifications to your phone are optional.

100% SAFE, READ-ONLY BY DESIGN

EA Health Monitor never trades. It opens nothing, closes nothing, modifies nothing. It only reads your trade history and reports. Run it alongside any EA, any manual strategy, any broker, any symbol, any timeframe. It cannot interfere with your trading.

HOW TO SET IT UP IN 2 MINUTES

Step one. Open your EA Strategy Tester report. Step two. Copy five numbers: win rate, profit factor, average win, average loss, trades per month, and the longest losing streak. Step three. Enter them as the baseline, set the magic number, attach to a chart. Done.

Stop asking forums whether your EA is dead. Ask the math.

A monitoring tool measures risk, it does not remove it. Always test on a demo account first. Past backtest performance does not guarantee future results.
