Come verificare lo storico verificato di un EA sull'oro prima di fidarsi

Before a Fed decision

The next Fed rate decision is due on Wednesday, 28 October 2026, at 14:00 Washington time (19:00 Zurich time). In the weeks with a decision, spreads can widen, fills can slip and gold can move fast, so a weak EA tends to show its flaws then. For the full checklist to run before a news day, read How to run a gold EA on news days. No strategy has passed yet; every result is public at baroqtech.com/record.

La lista di controllo per la verifica

• Third-party tracked? You need a live tracker link that reads the account directly. Screenshots and "private results" don't count.
• Denaro reale? Il tipo di conto deve indicare reale (live). Uno storico demo è un'altra cosa.
• History and privileges verified? Both need to be verified, not just one.
• Enough trades, over enough time? A handful of trades over a few weeks is too early to say anything.
• Costs inside the numbers? Commission and swap should be charged in every figure.
• Drawdown sull'equity? Contano le perdite aperte, non solo le operazioni chiuse.
• Denaro entrato e uscito? Controlli depositi e prelievi, e se una data di inizio personalizzata nasconda i primi mesi. Un deposito durante un drawdown nasconde quanto sia stato profondo.
• Is this the only account running it? Run one EA on many accounts and one of them will look good by chance.
• Close to the backtest? Live results far below what the test promised are a warning.

Un buono storico passato non prevede i risultati futuri. Superare questa lista di controllo non Le evita le perdite.

Che cosa dimostra "verificato" e che cosa no

"Verificato" dimostra che un tracker ha letto un vero conto di trading. Non dimostra che l'EA funzioni, né che continuerà a funzionare.

Verified track record: a trade history that a tracking service has read straight from the broker account, usually through an investor (view-only) password. The trades shown are the trades that happened.

Privilegi di trading: una verifica separata che la persona che mostra lo storico controlli il conto. Lo storico senza privilegi dice che le operazioni sono avvenute, non che appartengano al venditore.

Che cosa controlla l'etichetta di ciascun tracker

• Myfxbook: Track record means "the account's trading history shown on Myfxbook matches the account's trading history provided by the broker". Trading privileges means "the individual who added the trading account possesses the master password".
• MQL5 Signals: It counts weeks "since the first trade performed on the trading account". It shows the trading mode as "demo or real", and notes that "a provider can afford much greater risks on a demo account than they would on a real one."
• FX Blue: FX Blue sorts published accounts by where the data came from (About FX Blue verification, read 26 October 2026):
  • Verified means "FX Blue has collected the account data directly from the broker, using our account sync, or comes from a similar source where the user cannot manipulate the data." FX Blue adds that it cannot rule out a broker manipulating the data.
  • Semi-verified accounts "are uploaded using our publisher EAs for MT4 or MT5". FX Blue says the results "are almost certainly genuine. However, it is theoretically possible for users to manipulate the data which is sent to FX Blue."
  • Everything else is unverified, including backtesting reports. For those, FX Blue says "it is impossible to verify whether the results have been manipulated, or whether they are from a demo account or a real one."

FX Blue doesn't say that it checks who controls the account. Treat a semi-verified label as weaker evidence than a verified one.

Che cosa nessun tracker può dirLe

• Quale EA ha eseguito le operazioni.
• Quali impostazioni sono state usate. La versione che acquista potrebbe non girare con le impostazioni dietro lo storico.
• Se continua a funzionare. Uno storico descrive il passato.

Demo e reale: non li mescoli mai

Demo vs live account: a demo account uses practice money at the broker, and a live account uses yours. Fills, spreads, slippage and pressure are all different.

Never add the two into one number. The desk is BaroqTech's MT5 dashboard, and it only reads your account. It shows demo and live on two separate sides, in two colors, and no total ever adds practice money to real money.

Quante operazioni servono perché uno storico significhi qualcosa?

A short record can look excellent by luck alone. The fewer the trades, the wider the range that chance alone can produce. If a record is only a few weeks old, the desk's verdict will read "too early", whatever the profit says. That's the minimum for reading a record at all, not a reason to trust one. BaroqTech's judge is the locked set of tests every trading idea has to pass, and it asks for many trades in the period it judges. One idea on the public record, daily momentum, was turned down as "too few trades to judge".

Legga i costi: commissione, swap, spread

Gold strategies often trade short moves, so costs take a big share of each trade, and swap adds up overnight. A record that leaves costs out shows a result the account never earned.

BaroqTech's tests charge spread, commission and slippage on every test trade, plus overnight financing on long positions held past the rollover. They then run again with costs doubled. An edge that only survives cheap trading is not an edge.

Worked example, in words

Picture a system that wins most of its trades with small gains and loses a few with large losses. Once spread, commission and swap come off every trade, the small gains can shrink until the few large losses outweigh them. A high share of winning trades says nothing until the costs are counted.

Conti le operazioni nel modo giusto

Partial close: closing part of a position and leaving the rest open, for example taking profit in steps.

One position is one trade, however many times it was partly closed. Counting each partial close as a trade inflates the trade count and the share of winners, while the money stays the same. The desk will merge partial closes into one trade.

Segnali d'allarme

Drawdown sull'equity: il calo maggiore dell'equity del conto da un picco, incluse le operazioni aperte.

Come BaroqTech applica a sé stessa le stesse regole

BaroqTech makes quantitative analytics software for gold (XAUUSD) traders on MetaTrader 5, and it holds its own trading ideas to this checklist. Every idea goes through six years of gold prices, the judge (locked tests nobody adjusts afterwards), a demo account, and then a live account with small size, a stop on every trade and a daily loss limit. The full rules are on the method page.

No strategy has passed yet; every result is public at baroqtech.com/record. Each idea is judged on costs, on prices it hasn't seen and on a luck test, and an idea that fails any of them is turned down. Every run is in the log.

The Gold EA Checking Kit puts every check on one page. It is included with the Lifetime Pass.
