Head to head
CepheusvsSilent Exit MT5
Both sets of figures are computed the same way from each product's own record. The measures that can be read against each other — the unit-free ratios — are scored. The ones that depend on how big the account was or how long it ran are shown underneath, unscored, because putting a winner on them would be comparing two different questions.
Silent Exit MT5 leads on 4 of the 5 measures that can be scored.
A count of rows, not a recommendation. Which of these measures matters is a question about the account it would run on.

Why these two are not quite like-for-like
- The tracked accounts are 1000× apart in size. Percentage growth compounds much faster on a small balance, so the growth figures are not the like-for-like they look.
- The accounts are denominated differently (CAD and USD), so every currency amount below is in its own unit. The ratios are unaffected.
- They trade different instruments — XAUUSD against EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, USDCAD — so the two records were made in different markets.
