MoonDog EA free download
There is a free download, and it is the demo MQL5 hosts on the listing itself. It is the full algorithm, restricted to the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester — you can backtest it on your own broker's history for nothing. What it cannot do is trade a live or demo account. That needs the paid version.

What MoonDog EA's record shows
Grid / basket positions
Up to 5 positions were held on XAUUSD at the same time. Baskets like this share one adverse move, so the account's real exposure is the whole ladder rather than any single trade.

Short track record
182 trades over 1.9 months. Metrics from a record this size are indicative rather than conclusive — a strategy needs to meet a market it dislikes before its drawdown figure means much.

How MoonDog EA trades
Read off the record rather than the sales page: how long it holds, which way it leans, and what market the figures actually describe.
How long it stays in
Positions last 1 min on average, which makes this a scalper whatever the listing calls it. Holding time decides how much the spread costs you and how much overnight risk you are carrying.
Which way it trades
Its 134 trades split 62.7% long to 37.3% short, so the result does not rest on the market having gone one way.
Built around one market
Everything here is XAUUSD. A single-market record says nothing about how it behaves anywhere else, so read every figure below as being about XAUUSD alone.
Where the money came from
The same totals the listing publishes, divided into the numbers that say whether an edge is real and whether it would survive being run on a different account.
Money won against money lost
It won $263 and lost $112, a profit factor of 2.59. For every $1.00 it handed back it took $2.59 in gross profit.
Where the edge comes from
It wins 68.7% of its trades, and the average win is 1.2× the average loss.
What one trade is worth
Averaged over 134 trades, each returned $1.13 on an account that opened at $99. That is the figure to multiply by your own trade count — not the headline growth.
Growth, per month
+384.8% total over 2 months compounds to +129.0% a month. The monthly rate is the comparable number: a total says as much about how long an account ran as about how well it traded.
What could go wrong with MoonDog EA
Every figure here is already in the record. These are the parts of it a summary table averages away.
Two drawdowns, not one
Closed-trade drawdown reached 15.3% against 0.3% on equity. The larger figure is the one that counts: losing positions were carried rather than cut, and an account too small to sit through that gets closed out first.
The worst single trade
Its worst trade lost $6.14, 2.4× the average loss of $2.54. The account grew 2.5× over the record, which accounts for most of that spread — adjusted for it the worst loss is 1.0× the average. Adjusted, the losses cluster rather than fan out, which is the shape a stop produces.
Its longest cold spell
It lost 5 trades in a row at some point. At the average loss that is about $13, or 12.9% of the $99 the account opened with. Assume it happens again, and ask whether you would still be running it on the far side.
Profit against the worst dip
It made 7.2× its deepest drawdown in total profit. Above one means the record has more than covered its own worst stretch.
What MoonDog EA needs from your account
Cost and account size, against the drawdown this record already produced.
The account these figures came from
Every figure above comes from one account that opened with $60 at GlobalPrime-Trade. A different size, a different broker or different settings is a different result.
What buyers say
Counted from the reviews MQL5 publishes on the listing. We count the subjects raised and the ratings given; we do not reprint the reviews.
What the marketplace scores it
4.28 out of 5 from 32 reviews on MQL5. That is a rating of the purchase — the seller, the support, the documentation — and only indirectly of the trading.
The rating, split three ways
MQL5 scores it 4.30 on description, 4.20 on reliability and usability, and 4.30 on support. Buyers rate reliability and usability lowest, which is the part the headline number averages away.
What buyers actually write about
Across the 20 most recent reviews, seller support comes up most often — 10 of them mention it. Losses and drawdown is the subject appearing most in the negative ones.
How the recent ones split
Of the 20 reviews the listing serves, 14 rate it four stars or better and 6 rate it two and a half or worse. This is the most recent page rather than every review ever left, which means it describes the version on sale now.
Who maintains it
How recently it was touched, how long it has been sold, and what the marketplace record says about the seller.
Whether anyone is still working on it
Version 4.18, last updated 13 Sept 2026 — within the last month. A system still being touched is one whose author is still answering for it.
How long it has been on sale
Listed since 2 Jul 2026, about 3 months. A short listing history means the record you are reading has not been through much yet.
Who is behind it
MQL5 gives James Vito Armin Bianchini its badges for “Sold more than 100 products”. Those count marketplace volume, not trading results — a seller can move a great many copies of something that loses money.

MoonDog EA: common questions
The four things people search for about this product, answered from the record rather than from the sales page.
Is there a MoonDog EA free download?
Yes — a free demo. MoonDog EA is sold on the MQL5 Market, and every listing there carries a demo you can download at no cost. It is the full algorithm limited to the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester, so you can backtest it on your own broker history for nothing, but it will not trade a live or demo account. The full version is $349. MQL5 records 3,059 downloads of it. Anything advertising the paid version as a free live download is a pirated build — usually modified, always unsupported, and a common way to lose an account.
Does MoonDog EA have a live signal?
Yes. MoonDog EA publishes a live signal on MQL5 covering 182 trades over about 2 months, and MQL5 verifies it from the broker's own trade feed rather than from the seller. It shows 129.0% a month compounded, a deepest fall of 20.1% and a profit factor of 2.59. Every figure on this page is recomputed from that record, and the page links it so you can check the arithmetic yourself.
Is there a MoonDog EA backtest?
Not one from us, and deliberately. A backtest is run by whoever is selling the product, on history and settings they choose, and it can be tuned until it looks good — which is why a flawless backtest and a poor live record so often sit on the same page. Instead this page measures 182 real trades over about 2 months of forward results, which is stronger evidence than any backtest: nobody can re-run it until it looks good. If you want a backtest, run your own: the free MetaTrader 5 demo does exactly that on your own broker's spreads, which is the only backtest whose assumptions you control.
Is there a MoonDog EA Myfxbook review?
Not that we can verify. MoonDog EA is not tracked on Myfxbook, and we will not point at a third-party page we cannot confirm belongs to this product — a name match is not proof. Its verified record is the MQL5 signal linked on this page, which serves the same purpose: an independent platform reading the broker's trade feed directly rather than taking the seller's word for it. Reviews on the MQL5 listing itself rate the purchase — the seller, the support, the documentation — rather than the trading, which is what the measured figures on this page are for.
