Head to head

Ghost Scalper MT5 vs GoldenShot

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.

Ghost Scalper 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 accounts are denominated differently (EUR and USD), so every currency amount below is in its own unit. The ratios are unaffected.
