Official Stenvall Mark III website

Trading strategy

• The robot works with Trend and Counter Trend strategies. 
• It works with EURUSD on the M5 time frame. 

The robot was tested with low risks on IC Markets’ real tick data. The modeling quality was 100%. The leverage was only 1:100. An initial deposit was $1,000. It has become $8,500 of the final deposit for 6,5 years. The maximum drawdown was 11%. Frankly, we cannot trust this data as it cannot be verified. The screenshots the dev provides could easily be manipulated.
