One decision a day

One decision a day keeps you inside the limits.

The whole plan is drawn and risk-sized before you act: entry, structure-based stop and three targets, already on your chart. Taking one clean setup a day is how you respect the daily-loss limit and the consistency rule instead of over-trading a challenge away.

  • Entry on the exact candle that triggered it, no chasing
  • Structure-based stop set so one trade can't breach the daily loss
  • TP1 / TP2 / TP3 sized so the reward walks you toward the profit target
  • Fires by push, email and a chart alert, no need to sit and watch
  • Works on MT4 & MT5 at any prop firm

A scored book to trade selectively, not all at once

The book keeps every signal the engine has produced across your firm's allowed instruments, re-scored on each closed bar. Nothing is quietly deleted, so you wait for the setups worth a slot in your day rather than taking them all and tripping the consistency rule.

  • A 1–5 score to be picky with

    Model, timeframe and entry zone on every row, each rated so you take only the Q4+ setups: the selectivity that keeps an evaluation consistent.

  • Ran · Missed · Invalid, recorded

    Every outcome is written down and kept: the honest track record you'd want before you put a challenge fee behind an engine.

  • The day's count resets with the session

    A clean tally of what fired today, so you pace entries against the daily-loss limit and don't burn the whole budget by lunch.

Levels to size your stop within the daily limit

Classic floor-trader pivots for the current chart, built from yesterday's open, high, low and close, and rendered as bands, because price reacts to areas, not to a single hairline. This is structure you can anchor a stop to and know, before you click, that the risk stays inside your daily-loss budget.

  • R3 → S3, each with its own band

    The full pivot ladder plus the central pivot, so you see which level price is really trading into before you commit a single trade's risk.

  • Live distance in pips

    How far price sits from every level right now, updating on the tick, so you place a stop at real structure and keep it under your max daily loss.

  • The inputs shown, not hidden

    Yesterday's O/H/L/C are on the card so you can check the maths, and one switch puts the whole set on the chart.

Spend your one trade on the cleanest allowed pair

Twenty-eight crosses reduced to eight currencies and ranked live, so you read the strength of the currency itself, not the noise of one pair's move, and put your single funded-account trade on the clearest side the market is offering.

  • Ranked strongest to weakest

    Re-sorted on every update from the full 28-cross matrix, not a single pair's candle.

  • Strongest against weakest

    Pair the top with the bottom and you have the cleanest trend pair on the board (here, EUR against NZD), the kind of setup worth one of your limited daily trades.

  • Prop-firm agnostic

    Reads the same at every prop firm and every symbol suffix, so the ranking is comparable wherever you're funded.

Session tab

Trade the live sessions without over-exposing your budget

Asia, Europe and New York on the prop firm's own clock, GMT offset and daylight saving handled for you, beside a 24-hour volatility profile built from the last 20 days, so you know whether this hour is normally quiet, medium or busy before you commit part of your daily-loss budget to it.

Show only the confluence that earns an entry

Smart-money structure is drawn only when you turn it on. Nothing clutters the chart by default: each layer is its own switch, so you build exactly the read that justifies putting a funded account behind a trade, and skip the setups that don't clear the bar.

  • One switch per layer

    Market and internal structure, swing points, premium/discount, FVG, iFVG, BPR, Unicorn, Inducement, SFP, sessions and levels.

  • Clean by default

    Everything starts off, so the chart shows only the confluence you chose, no wall of boxes clouding a decision that puts your challenge fee at stake.

  • Layers and zones stay in sync

    Flip a zone's layer and its live count follows, because on the panel the switch and the drawing are one setting.

Tune the frequency down to a rule-safe cadence

Each engine exposes its settings in plain language, not cryptic inputs. Loosen for more signals, tighten for fewer: every row tells you which way it trades frequency against selectivity, so you can settle the engine on the low, one-a-day cadence that keeps a challenge inside its daily-loss limit and consistency rule.

  • Strictness in one row

    Slide from Vloose to Vtight to move the whole engine between more setups and fewer, cleaner, evaluation-safe ones.

  • Filters you can read

    Quality filter, structure needed, reaction room, level lifetime and settling time: each with a plain hint.

  • New settings apply from here on

    Change a dial and it affects future bars; what's already in the book keeps the settings it was found under.

MT5 challenge EA

Maven Trading MT5 EA That Waits for a Real ICT Setup

On a Maven Trading MT5 account, evaluation or funded, this Expert Advisor loads onto the terminal as a single file. It reads order blocks, fair value gaps and liquidity sweeps, and it fires only when a swept liquidity pool tags into an order block or fair value gap inside a killzone. When that happens, the trade goes out with its stop and targets set and a position size that keeps a full stop inside Maven's daily loss line. When it does not, the EA sits flat, for three sessions if that is all the market offers, rather than inventing a trade to stay busy.

Three signal cards over one EURUSD 1h candle field, a liquidity sweep, a pullback and a breakout retest on three instruments, each with its planned direction, so the picture reads as an EA that only acts on a real ICT setup.
One GBPJPY 1h long continuation drawn to true scale with entry, stop and targets, and a size note showing the position trimmed as the trade nears the 20% single-trade profit cap.

Single-trade cap

Maven 20% Single Trade Profit Cap and Automatic Size Trimming

Maven Trading caps what any single trade may contribute at 20% of the total profits earned so far, a limit many traders only discover at a payout review. The EA tracks that ceiling live while the account runs and trims position size automatically as a new order would bring it close to the cap, so each order is sized with the rule already in view. You still choose your own risk per trade; the trimming only narrows it as the cap approaches. Trading carries a risk of loss, and the cap limits how much one trade can count toward profit, not how much it can lose.

Format limits

Maven Trading 1-Step vs 2-Step Drawdown for an Automated Account

Maven Trading's two main formats draw their loss lines differently, and an automated account has to be told which one it is on. The 2-Step flagship allows a 4% max daily loss and an 8% overall limit held as a static drawdown. The 1-Step tightens the daily figure to 3% and uses a 5% trailing drawdown, a line that follows the account's high instead of staying put. You enter your format's figures in the risk panel, and the EA throttles size as the daily line approaches, then locks out new entries for the rest of the session. Trading carries a risk of loss on either format.

Two columns, 1-Step against 2-Step, with rows for max daily loss, max overall loss, whether the overall line trails or stays static, and what the EA does as the daily line nears.
A watchlist of eight instruments narrowing through a 1 to 5 score to a shortlist of two, where you either take one setup or sit flat for the session.

Selective trading

Fewer, Scored Setups on a Maven Challenge With No Day Count

Maven Trading sets no minimum trading days on its 1-Step and 2-Step challenges, so nothing rewards you for opening a trade just to log a day. The EA is built to use that. Every signal lands in a scored book rated from 1 to 5, you take only the Q4 and above setups, and everything else is still recorded as ran, missed or invalid. For even fewer trades, slide the strictness row toward vtight or single out Rayan, the confirmation-heavy engine. The result is an account that can sit flat for three sessions rather than force an entry into a weak killzone.

Pick your format

Choosing a Maven Challenge Format for the ICT EA

Whichever Maven Trading format you buy, 1-Step, 2-Step or 3-Step, at any challenge size, the same EA file loads on the MT5 terminal and reads its rule set from the risk panel. So pick the format for its limits, not for the tool: the 1-Step draws tighter lines, while the 2-Step gives more room across two stages. After buying the evaluation, message SignalBots support to activate the free license against your Maven MT5 login, with no card and no subscription. Enter the format's daily loss, overall drawdown and news-window figures, then flip AutoTrading on. Trading carries a risk of loss whichever format you choose.

Four instrument cards on the 4h, each with its own chart and planned setup, showing the same EA file taking setups whichever Maven format the account runs.
The problem

Why traders fail prop firm challenges

The evaluation isn't really testing your entries. It's testing whether you can stay inside the rails for weeks, and that's where humans crack.

  • One overshoot ends the account.

    Push past the daily drawdown by a single trade and it's gone, weeks of good reads wiped by one bad afternoon.

  • News rules are easy to forget.

    A valid ICT setup right into a high-impact release can be a breach on many firms, even if the trade would have won.

  • Consistency rules quietly disqualify you.

    One outsized winning day can fail a challenge you were otherwise passing, a rule most traders only learn about after it costs them.

Market scanner

Scan the market inside your prop rules

The EA scans every pair for you, and on a challenge, each setup is checked against your drawdown line before it is allowed to fire.

  • One panel, every pair

    The whole market scans in a single view. You don't have to choose which chart to babysit.

  • Sized to the rules first

    Before any pair can fire, the trade is sized so a full stop stays inside your daily drawdown line.

  • News windows honoured

    Setups landing inside a restricted release simply don't fire: the breach never happens.

The fit

Why Maven Trading is a strong home for the ICT EA

Maven's challenge design rewards exactly what an automated ICT model is good at: consistent execution with no clock pressure.

No minimum trading days means the EA can wait for the right setup, not the calendar

Maven Trading's 1-step and 2-step challenges carry no minimum trading-day requirement, so there is no incentive to force a trade just to log a day. The EA only fires on a confirmed ICT setup, a swept liquidity pool tagging into an order block or fair value gap inside a killzone, and is just as happy to sit flat for three sessions as it is to take one clean trade. That patience is normally the hardest discipline for a human to hold on a countdown; on Maven's untimed format it becomes free upside.

Sized against a 20%-of-profit trade cap

Maven caps any single trade's contribution at 20% of total profits earned so far. The EA tracks that ceiling live and trims position size automatically as you approach it, instead of you finding out after a payout review.

Daily and overall drawdown enforced in the same order Maven checks them

The EA throttles size as the daily loss line approaches, then locks out new entries for the session, the same sequence Maven's own risk desk applies, so you never discover a breach after the fact.

One MT5 file across Maven's 1-Step, 2-Step and 3-Step formats

Whichever Maven challenge size or step-count you buy, the same EA file loads on the MT5 terminal and reads its rule set from the risk panel, no separate build per program.

The reason most challenges fail

The EA stops before the line, not after

Blowing the drawdown is the No.1 way traders fail an evaluation they had the skill to pass. The EA sizes and throttles against Maven Trading's limits, so it backs off well before the breach.

Challenge, day by day

How the EA runs a prop challenge

A challenge is won by staying inside the rules for weeks, not by one good entry. Here is how that plays out.

  1. Day 1 · 08:00
    Inside the rails

    It knows your limits before it trades.

    Your firm's daily and overall drawdown, news windows and consistency targets are loaded: every trade is weighed against them first.

  2. Day 1 · 08:20
    London setup

    A valid ICT entry, correctly sized.

    The setup fires, sized so even a full stop stays comfortably inside the daily drawdown line.

  3. Day 2 · 14:00
    News window

    It stands down for the release.

    A valid setup lands right into a high-impact release: the EA simply doesn't fire, so a breach never happens.

  4. Day 4
    Consistency held

    No single day runs away.

    Even, repeatable sizing keeps any one day from tripping the consistency rule that quietly fails so many traders.

  5. Payout
    Funded, protected

    Same discipline, real money.

    The evaluation passes and the identical guards carry into the funded account, where protecting the payout matters most.

Who it's for

Who this prop firm EA is for

It's built for the trader a challenge actually trips up, and honest about who it isn't for.

This is for you if

  • You've blown challenges on one bad afternoon, not on bad strategy.
  • You keep forgetting a firm's news or consistency rule in the heat of a trade.
  • You want the drawdown line defended by software, not willpower.
  • You want the same discipline to carry from evaluation into funded.

This isn't for you if

  • You want a guaranteed pass, no tool can promise one, and anyone who does is lying.
  • You prefer to place every challenge trade by hand.
  • You're still learning the basics and aren't ready to automate an evaluation.

Reviews

Reviews from Maven Trading traders

Traders on running the ICT AI Signal EA day to day.

  • Diego F. Maven Trading 2-Step trader · via Google Reviews
    No minimum trading days meant the EA never had to invent a trade just to log a day. It waited for the killzone setups and skipped the dead sessions completely.
  • Petra V. Maven Trading funded trader · via Trustpilot
    I didn't even know Maven caps a single trade at 20% of your profit until the EA started trimming size as I got near it. Learned that from the tool, not a failed payout review.
  • Tomas B. Maven Trading 1-Step trader · via Telegram
    On the 1-Step the daily limit is tighter at 3%, and the EA throttled hard as I got close, then locked out new entries for the session. That's what saved the account.
Good to know

Frequently asked questions

How does the EA connect to Maven Trading?

It runs as a standard MT5 Expert Advisor on the same terminal login Maven Trading issues for your evaluation or funded account, no separate API or bridge to configure.

Which Maven Trading challenge is the best fit?

The 1-Step and 2-Step programs both work well since neither has a minimum trading-day requirement, so the EA can wait for a genuine ICT setup instead of trading to a clock.

Does the EA work on Maven's 1-Step, 2-Step and 3-Step formats?

Yes. One MT5 file covers all three; you just enter that program's daily loss, overall drawdown and profit target into the risk panel.

Does Maven Trading allow EAs and automated trading?

Yes, Maven permits automated strategies on both evaluation and funded MT5 accounts, so the EA can trade the account directly.

Do I need a VPS to leave the EA running?

A VPS is recommended so the EA stays connected through London and New York killzones without depending on your own machine's uptime.

Can I set my own risk per trade?

Yes. You set risk per trade and the EA also enforces Maven's 20%-of-profit single-trade cap automatically on top of it.

Is the license really free?

Yes, for life. SignalBots is an Introducing Broker partner, so when you trade a Maven account we get compensated by the arrangement instead of charging you, no card and no subscription.

How much does it cost to use the EA on Maven Trading?

Nothing beyond Maven's own evaluation fee. The EA license itself is free; you only pay Maven for the challenge you choose.

Will the EA respect Maven's daily and overall drawdown limits?

Yes. It throttles position size as the daily loss line approaches and halts new entries well ahead of both the daily and overall drawdown thresholds.

Can it guarantee I pass Maven Trading?

No. Nothing can guarantee a pass. What it does is enforce the discipline most traders breach on their own: sizing, stopping and staying inside the rules on every single order.

What happens around high-impact news events?

The EA can be set to flatten or pause around your configured news windows, which matters most on the 1-Step format's tighter 3% daily limit.

Is my capital at risk?

Yes. Trading a Maven Trading account carries real risk and no result is guaranteed. Read the full risk warning before you trade.

Compliance & regulation

The rules, risks & regulators behind automated trading

The platform’s own conditions, the market’s risks, and the regulators that oversee it, organised in one place so you can check each before you automate a single trade.

Maven Trading's own rules

Maven Trading is a proprietary-trading challenge provider, not a licensed broker. Here is what its own terms say about EAs, automated trading and the account you'd actually be running.

  • Maven LLC is registered in the UAE (DIEZ free zone, IFZA, Dubai) and states plainly that it is not a regulated investment service provider; it does not hold a securities or brokerage licence and does not accept real customer deposits.
  • Its own Terms & Conditions and Day Trading Rules prohibit Expert Advisors: EAs, bots or other automated systems are barred unless Maven gives prior written approval, and its rules add that EAs are not permitted under any circumstances across its platforms.
  • High-frequency trading, tick scalping, arbitrage (including reverse arbitrage) and exclusive/reverse hedging are separately banned as 'cheating,' with violations risking challenge failure or account termination.
  • All accounts, challenge and funded, trade simulated funds in a demo environment, not live markets; Maven explicitly says live-server mirroring is not possible, so payouts come from the firm's capital rules, not real market execution.

Official sources

Prop-firm market risks

What to weigh before you run any EA on a funded-challenge account.

  • Challenge providers are largely unregulated: they are not licensed brokers, don't register with the CFTC or NFA, and you trade simulated capital under a fee-for-service contract, not a protected brokerage account.
  • Because they aren't brokers, funds aren't segregated client money and there is no FSCS / SIPC-style deposit protection if a firm delays payouts or ceases operating.
  • The CFTC's 2023 case against “My Forex Funds” (later dismissed on procedural grounds in 2025) alleged the firm secretly traded against its own funded clients, an illustration of the counterparty conflict built into the challenge-fee model.
  • Platform access is a live risk: from February 2024 MetaQuotes revoked MT4 / MT5 licences from brokers grey-labelling to prop firms over US-regulatory exposure, stranding some firms' accounts through no fault of the trader.

Official sources

Global regulators

The international bodies that oversee automated and retail trading. These references hold wherever you run the EA: confirm the rules for your own jurisdiction before you enable AutoTrading.

  • Under the EU's MiFID II, firms running algorithmic strategies must keep pre-trade risk controls, governance and testing in place. ESMA extended that scrutiny to AI-driven trading systems in 2026.
  • The FCA (UK) and ASIC (Australia) cap retail CFD leverage from 30:1 down to 2:1 and require negative-balance protection: a hard limit on the exposure any EA can take on a retail account.
  • Regulators consistently report that most retail CFD accounts lose money; automating the entries does not change that base rate.
  • CySEC, the FCA, ASIC and the CFTC all warn that an 'AI trading bot' promising guaranteed or risk-free returns is itself a fraud red flag: legitimate automation never guarantees a result.

Regulators

United States

US persons face a distinct set of rules for automated forex, futures and securities trading, and a specific regulator advisory aimed at trading bots.

  • The CFTC's advisory “AI Won't Turn Trading Bots into Money Machines” names automated-bot and AI-signal scams directly: one fake-AI forex-bot case ended in a $3.4 billion judgment.
  • Retail off-exchange forex dealers must register with the CFTC and be NFA Forex Dealer Members; soliciting retail forex orders, including for an automated system, requires NFA registration.
  • The SEC, NASAA and FINRA jointly warn that a phrase like “our proprietary AI system can't lose” signals an unregistered scheme, not legitimate automation.
  • FINRA Rule 3110 makes member firms supervise, test and register the people behind an algorithmic strategy: the institutional bar for 'supervised' automated trading.
