Quantum King EA Review MT4/MT5
Not Recommended
Early Review
MT4/MT5
AUDCAD M5 — grid + martingale
$599.99 MT5 / $499 MT4
Verified 28 Oct 2026
Early Review: based on a 14-month real-money record (MQL5 Signal 2333407, trading from 22 August 2025). An Early Review can be Inconclusive or Not Recommended, never Recommended. We will assess it against the full record once it reaches 24 months (August 2027).
The Bottom Line
Not Recommended. The Robotic Trader rates Quantum King EA Not Recommended because it is a grid with martingale sizing. When AUDCAD moves against its open trades, it opens more trades the same way, and about a third of the time at a larger size. With its default settings, it does not close the losing trades with a stop loss: it keeps adding until the whole group can be closed at an overall profit.
The seller describes it in those terms, as a "Grid + Martingale hybrid", and his live signal's trade history shows it. In the 553 trades we could read, 218 were added to a group that was already open. 214 of those were opened after the market had moved against every trade still open in the group, and 72 of them were larger than the previous trade still open. Under our methodology, any grid, averaging or martingale strategy is Not Recommended, whether the seller discloses it or not.
The strongest case for it is real. The live signal is a real-money account tracked on MQL5's own servers, and the seller links it from both product pages. MQL5 counts 565 trades over 14 months, with a profit factor of 2.31. None of the 335 groups in the history we could read closed at a net loss, and the account has not suffered a wipeout.
What the record shows overall. The largest group was 16 AUDCAD sells, opened as the price rose about 183 pips against the first. At its peak it held 9 trades and 2.16 lots open at once; the account balance was $3,183 when the group began. Over the whole record, MQL5 recorded a worst equity drawdown of 29.25%. It does not say when.
Of the 11 deposits made after the opening $100, 10 went in while trades were open, including $3,000 while that group's 9 trades were open. All 8 withdrawals were made with nothing open. The timings do not show why the money was added; the seller describes deposits and withdrawals as normal account management.
No group in the history we read closed at a net loss. So this record cannot show how large a losing group would be, or what a sustained move against the grid would do.
What would change this verdict is set out in the disclosures below.
Methodology
Evaluation Methodology
We assessed Quantum King as an Early Review. The only attributable live record we found is 14 months old. Early Reviews cover real-money records of at least 12 months and 300 trades but under 24 months; see how we test.
What we read:
- The signal and its history: the live signal both product pages link (MQL5 Signal 2333407), including all 12 pages of its history: 553 closed trades and 20 deposit and withdrawal entries.
- The seller's other MQL5 signals.
- The product pages: MT5 and MT4, and the update log.
- The manual: a setup manual for Quantum King published on incredible-traders.com under "weredeu", the seller's MQL5 username (last modified 4 August 2026). We refer to it below as "the manual".
- Reviews: MQL5 buyer reviews, and a web search for Forex Peace Army, Trustpilot and third-party reviews.
How we grouped the trades: trades on the same pair and in the same direction that overlap in time form one group, from the first trade opened to the last one closed. We call it a "group", not a cycle, because it is our grouping and not the EA's own label.
The product pages make no prop-firm claim, so no prop-firm test applies.
Note. Figures were read on 28 October 2026. They are a dated snapshot, not a live feed.
- Trades we could not see: MQL5 reports 565 trades; the history we could read contains 553 closed trades. The difference of 12 is all AUDCAD. It is either the latest deals, which MQL5 hides from non-subscribers, or partial closes MQL5 counts separately; we could not establish which.
- Drawdown: MQL5's drawdown is the worst it recorded, so a dip between its readings may not show.
- Our figures: figures marked "our calculation" come from the visible history.
- What MQL5 tracking shows: that the trades came from this account. It does not show which settings or EA version placed them.
- Testing: we did not test the EA ourselves.

DatesMQL5 shows the signal as "Started 24 September 2025", but the account's history begins on 22 August 2025, before the EA went on sale on 14 October 2025. The history spans the release dates of versions 2.3 and 3.1. MQL5 does not show which version placed each trade, so this is not a 14-month record of the current version.
Cash flowsOpening deposit $100; further deposits $10,808.00; withdrawals $9,703.16. Balance and equity were $4,389.78 when we read the signal.
Growth figureMQL5 shows 401.78%. It chains the account's returns between deposits and withdrawals, so the deposits do not simply inflate it. We do not headline it, because it starts from a $100 balance and shows neither the risk held in open trades nor the money added while they were open.
DrawdownBy equity: 29.25% ($1,409.98).
By balance: MQL5 reports a maximal drawdown of $132.23 (18.58%) and a relative drawdown of 5.98% ($7.24). By MetaTrader's own definitions the relative figure should not be the smaller of the two, and we could not reconcile them.
MQL5 does not date any of these figures.

MQL5 does not date any of these figures.
Recovery factor24.09 (MQL5). This is profit divided by the $132.23 balance drawdown, so it does not reflect the larger equity drawdown.
Per tradeExpected payoff $5.64. MQL5's best and worst trades are +$123.54 and −$127.99; it appears to count each closing deal separately. Measured per trade in the history we read, the worst was −$192.16: a 0.20-lot sell held from 22 to 29 January 2026, closed inside a group that finished in profit (our calculation). Trades lose; the groups we could read did not.

How the EA Trades — What the History Shows
What the seller says:
Product page"It combines the structure of a Grid strategy with the adaptive recovery logic of Martingale", and "Grid + Martingale hybrid with adaptive control".
The manual's default stop setting"Stop when StopLoss – FALSE (default settings)". With it, "the EA will not close the trades with a SL, and will continue to open new positions in the grid cycle" until all trades can be closed at an overall profit.
Optional loss limitsThe manual also lists total stop-loss settings, by dollar amount or percentage (0 = off), with an optional delay, and says it is "not recommended to change the TOTAL STOPLOSS SETTINGS". We have not tested them, and the signal does not show its settings.
What the history shows (all 553 visible trades, our calculation). In this section, an "add" is a trade opened while another trade on the same pair, in the same direction, is still open.
Adds218 of the 553 trades were adds.
214 were opened at a price beyond every trade still open in that direction, so the market had moved against all of those trades.
72 of the 214 were larger than the previous trade still open in the group.

72 of the 214 were larger than the previous trade still open in the group.
Group sizesThe 553 trades formed 335 groups. 227 were single trades. The other 108 each contained 2 to 16 trades: 70 of 2, 17 of 3 and 21 of 4 or more.
The largest group16 AUDCAD sells.
Opened from 7 to 17 April 2026, at entries from 0.96687 up to 0.98519, about 183 pips against the first.
Sizes: 0.08 six times, then 0.01, 0.16, 0.24, 0.24, 0.32, 0.32, 0.32, 0.40, 0.32 and 0.40, which is 3.21 lots in all.
At most 9 trades and 2.16 lots were open at once (15 April).
The account balance was $3,183.32 when the group began. The last trade closed by 20 April, and the group made +$288.34 overall.

No losing groupsNone of the 335 groups closed at a net loss; the lowest results were +$0.32, +$0.47 and +$0.57. That does not show that future groups will recover.
Buys and sells togetherBuy and sell trades on AUDCAD were open at the same time 224 times (pairs of trades). The product page asks for a "Hedge" account.
Size against balance. The manual's eight risk levels run from 0.01 lots per $2,400 of balance (Very Low) to 0.01 per $300 (Extreme). The default is Medium, 0.01 per $800. We compared the first trade of each group with the balance at that moment (our calculation). The signal traded at:
| Period | Balance per 0.01 lot |
|---|---|
| October 2025 | about $67 |
| December 2025 | $84 |
| February 2026 | $200 |
| April 2026 | $391 |
| May 2026 | $634 |
| September–October 2026 | $409 to $426 |
Against the manualIts sizing has never matched the default Medium level. In late 2025 it traded several times larger, relative to its balance, than the Extreme level in the current manual.
A caveat on that comparisonExtreme was "Readjusted" in version 3.1 (February 2026), so we can't say how late 2025 compares with the settings available then.
What it meansThe signal does not say which setting it runs. It should not be read as a record of the default configuration.
This is a grid with martingale sizing, which our methodology rates Not Recommended.
Deposits and Withdrawals
The signal's history records every deposit and withdrawal. We compared each one's timing with the trades open at that moment (our calculation), and the totals match MQL5's.
Deposits with trades open (10 of the 11 after the opening $100; $10,308 in all):
| Date | Amount | Open at the time |
|---|---|---|
| 8 Oct 2025 | $100 | 2 trades |
| 10 Oct 2025 | $250 | 2 trades |
| 11 Oct 2025 | $500 | 4 trades |
| 5 Dec 2025 | $415 | 2 trades |
| 7 Jan 2026 | $1,000 | 5 trades |
| 26 Jan 2026 | $779 | 4 trades |
| 26 Jan 2026 | $1,000 | 5 trades |
| 27 Jan 2026 | $864 | 5 trades |
| 10 Mar 2026 | $2,400 | 6 trades |
| 16 Apr 2026 | $3,000 | 9 trades, 2.16 lots (the April group above) |
Deposits with nothing open: the opening $100 on 22 August 2025, and $500 on 21 October 2025, one minute after a withdrawal of $1,081.16.
Withdrawals, all with nothing open (8; $9,703.16 in all):
| Date | Amount |
|---|---|
| 21 Oct 2025 | $1,081.16 |
| 14 Nov 2025 | $104 |
| 5 Feb 2026 | $2,495 |
| 13 Feb 2026 | $602 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | $2,218 |
| 21 Apr 2026 | $1,518 |
| 27 May 2026 | $1,270 |
| 14 Jul 2026 | $415 |
There have been no deposits since 16 April 2026.
What the timings do and don't show. They do not show why the money was added, whether the account needed it, or what would have happened without it. We make no claim about intent. Deposits add capital to support open trades, and depending on timing and MQL5's method they may affect the drawdown percentages it records. We cannot reconstruct the drawdown or outcome the same account would have had without them.
The seller's position, from his reply to a buyer review on 22 October 2026: "Depositing or withdrawing capital from a trading account is normal account management. I regularly secure profits through withdrawals."
How Long Losses Stayed Open
The average trade lasted about a day. We publish the longest, because averages hide them; see our methodology. The figures below are holding periods, not how long each trade or group stayed at a loss.
Longest group12.5 days (10 AUDCAD sells, 5 to 18 May 2026). The next longest lasted 12.1, 11.6 and 10.7 days.
Longest single trade11.9 days.
Longest open drawdownMQL5 does not publish the equity series in a form we could read, so we could not measure how long the account stayed below a previous high. Every group in the visible history closed within 12.5 days.
Open at our checkNot visible; MQL5 hides open trades from non-subscribers.
Against the 90-day ruleWe found no loss open for 90 days in the visible history. This verdict rests on the grid and martingale.
What the Sales Page Says, and What the Record Shows
"Optimized for long-term stability and capital preservation"By default, the EA keeps adding to a group in loss without a stop loss. The April group reached 2.16 lots open at once on an account whose balance was $3,183 when it began. MQL5's worst equity drawdown on the signal is 29.25%.
"Minimum Deposit: $300; Recommended $500+"The manual gives $300 per 0.01 lot for its Extreme level and $800 for the default, Medium. The signal began with $100 and was topped up as shown above. It does not show that $300 is enough to carry the positions it held without adding money.
"Leverage: 1:100"The signal runs at 1:500, five times the leverage the page recommends.
"It's designed to trade with confidence — consistent, efficient, and always under control."In the default setting, the control is to keep adding until the group is in profit overall, not a stop on each trade.

Key Evaluation Criteria
- No grid, averaging, martingale or recovery strategy: failed. 214 trades were added after the market had moved against every open trade in their group, and 72 of them were larger than the previous open trade. The seller calls it a "Grid + Martingale hybrid".
- Claims match the record: the page promises "capital preservation" and a $300 minimum. The default has no stop loss on the grid, and the record was funded from $100 with top-ups.
- Drawdown in line with the marketing: we found no drawdown figure on the product page. MQL5 recorded 29.25% on equity.
- No wipeout or near-wipeout: none in the 14-month record.
- Edge: profit factor clear of 1.0: 2.31. A 73.80% win rate with average losses larger than average wins (payoff 0.82) is a warning, not a fail.
- Real-money record: 14 months and 565 trades. That qualifies for an Early Review but is short of the 24 months a Recommended verdict needs.
- Third-party tracked record: an MQL5 signal on MQL5's own servers, linked by the seller.
- No loss held open beyond 90 days: none in the visible history; the longest group lasted 12.5 days.
Suitability & Risks
What's Genuinely Positive
- A real-money record tracked by MQL5, linked by the seller from both product pages.
- A profit factor of 2.31 over 565 trades, and no wipeout in 14 months.
- The grid and martingale are disclosed on the product page and in the manual.
- No group in the visible history closed at a net loss.
Key Risks
- Grid with martingale sizing: when the price keeps moving against a group, the EA keeps adding, about a third of the time at a larger size. With the default settings, a move that does not come back is met with a growing position and no stop loss.
- No losing group in the record: so it cannot tell you how large a losing group would be.
- How the record was funded: most deposits went in while trades were open, and the signal's size against its balance has never matched the default setting.
- Payoff: the average loss is larger than the average win.
- US brokers: it can't be used at a US retail forex account as run.
- Versions and settings: the history spans more than one version's release, and the signal does not state its settings.
Important Disclosures
Verification History
28 October 2026 — Published as an Early Review (14-month record), Not Recommended.
- What we read: MQL5 Signal 2333407 and its visible trade history; the MT5 and MT4 product pages and update log; the seller's MQL5 signal list; the manual; MQL5 buyer reviews; and a web search for other reviews.
- Our policy: we do not edit published figures to track current values. We add dated entries here instead.
What would change this verdict.
- While it trades as it does: while Quantum King trades as a grid with martingale sizing, it is Not Recommended under our methodology, whatever its profit.
- A new version: a materially changed version, with an attributable real-money record showing no grid, averaging, martingale or recovery strategy, would need a fresh review against all our other criteria.
- The Early Review label: we check the record each quarter. When it reaches 24 months (August 2027), we re-check the verdict against the full record and remove the label.
The same seller. Bogdan Ion Puscasu also sells Quantum Queen X, which we rate Not Recommended. As our Quantum Queen X review sets out, the live record marketed with that product belonged to an earlier one of his. That finding plays no part in this verdict.
Independent reviews
- MQL5 buyer reviews (read 28 October 2026): 272 reviews, rating 4.92. Many are short, and several describe one to eight weeks of use.
- Negative reviews: MQL5's negative filter shows four.
- On 21 July 2026, one Quantum King buyer called it a "GRID EA, small profits for a big risk" and alleged that money was added to the signal when the grid was down. The seller replied that it was "a FAKE review" containing "multiple FALSE and misleading statements". Our deposit analysis above records when money went in. It cannot show how far the open trades were down at those moments, or why the money was added.
- Of the other three: one says live results did not match the backtests and marketing; one is a general claim about all the seller's EAs; and one mainly concerns his other products.
- Not found: we found no Forex Peace Army or Trustpilot entry for Quantum King.
- Other coverage: a VPS seller's blog (NYCServers) reviews Quantum King and calls the strategy high-risk; it cites no account.
- How we use reviews: individual reviews are users' accounts, not facts we have verified, and they play no part in the verdict.
Affiliate disclosure. We have no commercial relationship with the seller or with MQL5, and no link on this page is an affiliate link. We have not applied to any affiliate programme. Under our methodology, we apply only after a review is published, and only if the Expert Advisor passed. We did not contact the seller before publication; this assessment rests on material the seller and MQL5 publish.
Corrections. If you are the vendor and believe a figure here is wrong, contact us at [email protected] with the evidence; we will check it and record any change in the verification history above.
Risk warning. Trading foreign exchange and contracts for difference carries a high level of risk and can result in the loss of all invested capital. Automated trading does not remove that risk; it removes the delay between a decision and its execution. Past performance, including verified past performance, is not a reliable indicator of future results. Nothing in this review is financial advice, a personal recommendation, or an invitation to trade. We are an independent publisher, not a regulated financial adviser.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Quantum King EA a scam?
We have seen no evidence of fraud, and we do not call it one. The seller publishes a real-money signal that MQL5 tracks, and he openly describes the strategy as a grid with martingale. Our verdict is about the risk of that strategy, not about honesty.
Why is this an Early Review?
Because the only attributable live record we found is 14 months old. The account behind MQL5 Signal 2333407 began trading on 22 August 2025, and MQL5 reported 565 trades when we read it on 28 October 2026. Real-money records of at least 12 months and 300 trades but under 24 months get an Early Review, which can be Inconclusive or Not Recommended but never Recommended. The record reaches 24 months in August 2027, when we will re-check it against the full record.
Why is Quantum King rated Not Recommended?
Because it is a grid with martingale sizing. When AUDCAD moves against its trades, it adds more the same way, about a third of the time at a larger size, and with its default settings it does not stop the losing trades out. The seller describes it that way. In the signal's visible history, 214 trades were added after the market had moved against every open trade in their group, and 72 of them were larger than the previous open trade. Our methodology rates any grid or martingale Not Recommended, disclosed or not.
Does Quantum King use a grid or martingale?
Yes, both, by the seller's own description ("Grid + Martingale hybrid with adaptive control"), and the signal's trade history shows it. The largest group was 16 sells, opened over about 183 pips against the first. The first entries were 0.08 lots and the largest 0.40, with up to 2.16 lots open at once.
Does Quantum King use a stop loss?
Not on the grid by default. The manual says that with the default "Stop when StopLoss – FALSE", the EA "will not close the trades with a SL, and will continue to open new positions in the grid cycle" until all trades can be closed at an overall profit. It also lists optional total stop-loss limits, which are off when set to 0. That default would explain why none of the 335 groups in the visible history closed at a net loss, though the signal does not state its settings. Individual trades did lose: the worst in the history we read lost $192.16.
Is the Quantum King live signal real?
Yes. MQL5 Signal 2333407 is a real-money account tracked on MQL5's own servers, and the seller links it from both product pages. Its history begins on 22 August 2025, before the signal was registered (24 September 2025) and before the EA went on sale (14 October 2025). MQL5 does not show which version placed each trade, and the signal does not state its risk setting.
What is the minimum deposit for Quantum King?
The product page says $300, with $500 or more recommended. The manual gives $300 per 0.01 lot for its Extreme risk level and $800 for the default, Medium. The live signal started with $100. Over 14 months, $10,808 more was deposited and $9,703 withdrawn, and most of the deposits went in while trades were open. So it does not show how a $300 account would cope.
How many people buy Quantum King, and what do buyers say?
On 28 October 2026 the MT5 page showed "6 purchases per month", 272 reviews and a 4.92 rating. Many reviews are short, and several describe one to eight weeks of use. MQL5's negative filter shows four reviews. One Quantum King buyer called it a "GRID EA, small profits for a big risk", and the seller disputes that review.
Can I use Quantum King with a US broker?
Not as the signal runs. It held buy and sell trades on AUDCAD at the same time, which US retail forex accounts at NFA-member dealers cannot do (NFA Compliance Rule 2-43). The product page asks for a "Hedge" account.
