The consistently profitable ones (if they exist) are not in the public domain (probably.) Various well meaning amateurs/programmers(and not so well meaning 'snake oil' marketeers) have developed others which are for sale and some are freely available on various forums etc which tells you all you need to know. Ask another question: Is there any one on this site for eg that has an EA that they either developed themselves or bought that has returned year on year returns for 5 years or more ? Can it be done ? maybe - but there is scant to no evidence of it (I refer to consistent returns as described not 'random flukes' as you aptly describe.) What are your chances of satisfying your aim ? I'll leave you to answer that one.

lynhappytrader started this thread So if I get your answer right, you're saying "forget that bull**** and learn it on your own". I guess you're right, but I'm still searching...
