How forex robots work
Most retail forex robots are Expert Advisors on MetaTrader or cBots on cTrader. The platforms are free through brokers; the robots are often sold by third parties with performance claims you cannot verify. Many use grid or martingale logic that can wipe out an account in a trend.
How these bots are scored
Every platform gets the same weighted score out of 10. A criterion without a primary source is not scored, and its weight is redistributed. Read the methodology.
