Who We Are at Forex Stock Checker (F&S.c)

Forex Stock Checker exists because retail traders have no reliable way to tell a working trading bot from a well-marketed one. The market runs on fabricated backtests and martingale systems dressed up as strategies. We buy the software, run it with our own money, and publish what happened.

Every platform is tested with real capital on live accounts, watched through high-impact news events, and graded on how it protects equity rather than how often it wins. The reports are free, and nobody pays us to appear in them.

Stage 1 of 3 Static code inspection
01

We read the code before we run it

Every algorithm goes through a source inspection before a cent is risked. We look for the patterns that empty accounts: unhedged grids, martingale lot scaling, and missing hard stop-losses.

A bot that doubles its lot size without a hard stop is flagged here, whatever its backtest shows.

02

Real money, real fills

Demo accounts give artificially clean execution. We run every system on live accounts at regulated brokers, so the numbers include slippage, spread widening during news, swap costs and latency.

What we publish is net of commission — the return you would actually have kept.

03

The rating is a risk rating

Win rate is the easiest number to make look good, so it is not what we grade on. We measure maximum drawdown, profit factor, how long recovery took, and whether the emergency stop actually works.

Most bots we test fail here. We publish those reports too.

The people behind the reports

Who signs off on an audit

Every report carries the name of the person who ran it. If you disagree with a rating, you know exactly who to write to.

Alexander Levy

A former quantitative trader on systematic Forex desks in Sydney and London. Saw how often retail investors are sold cherry-picked backtests, and built Forex Stock Checker (F&S.c) to hold automated software to the standard institutional desks use: live bank liquidity, real broker fills, and spreads that move.

Runs every MQL4/MQL5 source review, execution latency audit, and entry-logic verification.

Daniel Klein

Pushes every bot past its comfort zone: Monte Carlo simulation, central bank rate announcements, and replays of historical crashes. A system does not earn a high rating for performing in a calm market. It earns one by protecting equity when the market stops behaving.

Eleven years in risk management, measuring drawdown recovery, value-at-risk and margin utilisation.
