RobotFX curates the best open-source MetaTrader code to inspire your trading automation.
Every Expert Advisor marks its trades with a magic number. Magic Number Scorecard groups the closed trades of the account by magic number, so you get one score line per EA (magic 0 = manual trades). It is a quick way to see which EA really earns, and which one only looks busy.
For each magic number

- trades, wins, losses and win rate
- gross profit, gross loss and profit factor
- net profit and average trade
- best and worst trade
- maximum drawdown of its closed-trade equity curve
- symbols traded
The table is printed in the Experts journal, shown on the chart, and written to a CSV file in MQL5\Files that opens in Excel. The rows are sorted by net profit.
How the trades are counted
- A trade is a closed position. All of its deals are added up: profit, swap, commission (entry and exit) and fee. A position closed in parts counts as one trade.
- The owner of a position is the magic number of its opening deal, so an EA trade that you close by hand still counts for that EA.
- Positions that are still open, fully or partly, are left out.
