Know when your trading strategy
starts losing its edge.

The problem

Your EA doesn't tell you when it stops working

Most algo traders only check their EA when equity drops. By then, the strategy has been degrading for weeks. Win rate eroded. Drawdowns deepening. The backtest edge — gone.

Strategy drift happens silently

Market regimes shift. Spreads widen. Liquidity patterns change. The statistical edge you validated in backtesting quietly erodes in live conditions — and MetaTrader gives you zero warning.

Losses compound fast

A 2% deviation per week becomes a 15% drawdown in two months. By the time you check your account, the damage from a degrading EA is already done. Early detection is everything.

Backtests don't monitor themselves

You ran a beautiful backtest. Great results. But a backtest is a snapshot — not a living benchmark. Without continuous comparison between live and expected performance, you're trading blind.

How it works

Start monitoring in under 5 minutes

No code changes to your EAs. No broker API needed. Works with any MT5 broker.

Import your Strategy Tester HTML report. Algo Studio extracts win rate, drawdown, profit factor — and uses it as the benchmark for live performance.

Get alerted on drift

Every closed trade is compared against your baseline. When performance drifts beyond acceptable ranges, you get a Telegram alert or the strategy halts automatically.

Drift detection

Catch performance degradationweeks before your equity shows it

Algo Studio uses CUSUM statistical monitoring — the same method used in industrial quality control — to detect persistent deviations in your EA's performance. It catches drift that's invisible on your equity curve.

Built for

Algo traders who take their edge seriously

Running EAs on MT5

You have one or more Expert Advisors running on MetaTrader 5 — scalpers, grid strategies, trend followers, or anything in between.

Backtested but uncertain

Your backtest looked great. But you don't know if live results are actually matching expectations — or silently diverging.

Managing multiple strategies

You monitor several EAs across different symbols and accounts, and need one place to see what's healthy and what's not.

Trading on a VPS

Your strategies run unattended 24/7. You need automated monitoring and alerts — not manual equity curve checking.

FAQ

Common questions

How does Algo Studio detect when my EA stops performing?

Algo Studio uses CUSUM statistical monitoring to compare your live results against your backtest baseline after every closed trade. When metrics like win rate, drawdown, or profit factor drift beyond expected ranges, you get alerted via Telegram or browser push — or the strategy halts automatically.

Does it work with any MetaTrader 5 broker?

Yes. Algo Studio works with any MT5 broker — IC Markets, Pepperstone, FTMO, or any other. You install a lightweight Monitor EA on your terminal that runs alongside your existing strategies without interfering.

Will it slow down or affect my trading strategies?

No. The Monitor EA is read-only. It observes trade events and account data but never places, modifies, or closes trades. Your strategies run exactly as before.

What if I don't have a backtest yet?

You can still connect and start monitoring. Algo Studio will track your live performance, detect anomalies, and build your verified track record. Uploading a backtest baseline unlocks drift detection and health scoring.

Is my trading data secure?

Yes. Algo Studio never has access to your broker credentials. The Monitor EA connects over HTTPS with an encrypted API key. Your trade data is stored encrypted and never shared with third parties.
