Head to head

Mon Scalper MT5vsOne Man Army

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.

One Man Army 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 — Mon Scalper MT5 from trade history, One Man Army from published statistics. The ratios are computed the same way, but only a trade-by-trade history supports the full set of risk checks.
  • One record is 1.7× longer than the other — Mon Scalper MT5 has had more time to meet a market it dislikes, which cuts both ways when reading its drawdown.
  • The tracked accounts are 9× apart in size. Percentage growth compounds much faster on a small balance, so the growth figures are not the like-for-like they look.
