Head to head

Diamond Scalper MT5vsMy AI Gold

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.

My AI Gold leads on 3 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 two are measured from different sources — Diamond Scalper MT5 from published statistics, My AI Gold from trade history. The ratios are computed the same way, but only a trade-by-trade history supports the full set of risk checks.
One record is 1.6× longer than the other — My AI Gold has had more time to meet a market it dislikes, which cuts both ways when reading its drawdown.
The tracked accounts are 6× apart in size. Percentage growth compounds much faster on a small balance, so the growth figures are not the like-for-like they look.
Both cover XAUUSD, but Diamond Scalper MT5 also trades EURUSD. Its figures are a blend across those instruments rather than a result on XAUUSD alone.
