However, you still need to deduct the cost of the 3M boosters, plus any time you might have spent (unless it's free). Another potential outcome would have been if you hadn't made a profit in those three months but had already paid 3k. But yeah, good ...

That may be true, and it could certainly be due to the different goals one pursues. My goal, or rather, my necessity, is to achieve a reliable, repeatable minimum income through trading. I think it's only natural that "hope," or as Pipmaster once ...

url This Darwin of yours, for example, shows a profit factor of "1.44". How can there be such a drastic difference compared to a profit factor of "80", as seen in your MetaTrader report? Just wondering. Nevertheless, good results with a drawdown ...

However, this does not explain which criteria can be used during the calibration phase to estimate the risk multiplier that one is likely to receive at the end. An MT4/MT5 strategy report showing the results of your own strategy isn't very helpful, ...

@hayseed. Just noticed, I can't see open orders during the calibration phase. Under "Strategy Analysis" it just says "Available when the calibration stage is over". ? image

What do you mean by "too expensive"? Darwinex charges a commission of 0.0025% (or 2.5 basis points) for trading XAU/USD (gold). Google says this is very cheap and extremely competitive. Currrent spread is 0,70 Pips.

The average drawdown of the top 10 DARWINs is -19.1%. (-14, -20, -15, -29, -17, -13, -24, -22, -19, -18)

Yes, I started it on Friday, but today is the first potential trading day. No trades have been executed yet, presumably at the opening of the US session.

darwin discussion

Do you have an example of how many trades you need during calibration to predict the risk multiplier, and what the math behind it looks like? Does everyone get a 25% discount code after opening a new DARWIN account? I haven't received one yet for ...

url Perhaps US citizens can use Darwinex (and therefore create a 3-Ticker DARWIN linked to such an account) if they opt for a "Classic IBKR Account."? Interactive Brokers does accept US citizens.

darwin discussion

Yes, that's unfortunately true. I don't even understand exactly why, since they also offer futures, which is a legally tradable market for US citizens as well? Edit: Maybe that's why Darwinex does not accept US citizens primarily due to the ...

Haha, they got me with the €15 restart offer too. I'll start trading again on Monday using my existing strategy (well „let“ it trade) I've made a few adjustments, so we'll see. But I won't pay for a second month if the calibration phase results in a ...

darwin discussion

I could imagine that investors' funds don't flow into a demo account but are simply held in a bank account, and that the DARWIN, as mentioned, only shows the risk-adjusted performance of the demo account but isn’t a trading account at all. Perhaps ...

darwin discussion

Well, the exact formulas based on which each position is evaluated are not publicly explained in detail, but they certainly happen in real time. If you only have one order open during the calibration phase that hasn't been closed yet, the ...

I'm not entirely sure if I understand your question correctly but all MT4/MT5 Brokers have access to MetaTrader Server, Manager API / Dealer API (server-side). This allows them to monitor and evaluate every trading activity in real time. Analytical ...

I'm not even sure if a DARWIN is a separate trading account to which trades are copied, or if it's simply a piece of software. According to this, the actual trading activity in a DarwinexZero account would only take place in the demo account (signal ...

I have now also collected the monthly return figures for all DARWINs (based on data from March 22, 2026). Here is a brief overview of the distribution of a certain X% consecutive minimum return for N consecutive months. image

Average over the entire lifetime of all DARWINs (total return/drawdown). I am currently still scraping the monthly return tables for all DARWINS; then I can say more about the averages over individual time intervals. Btw, I asked Darwinex about the ...

Based on the data I've collected, the following picture emerges across all DARWINs: Average return: 2.58% Average drawdown: -13.67% Average AuM (Assets Under Management): 26,997 € Average number of investors: 46

Thank you, so I basically understood it correctly, and that's essentially what I'm trying to find. A trading plan that would allow me to achieve a consistent minimum return within a specific timeframe while also adhering to a certain risk limit and ...
