Automation is allowed because the account is a live brokerage book
You are trading a real Axi account, not a simulated challenge server with a hidden lot cap. Expert Advisors are fully allowed on MT4 and MT5. There is no separate "bot tax" and no evaluation invoice at the $100,000 size, where the listed fee is $0. Your own deposit can start at $500, and the firm's multiplier is what scales the buying power toward $1,000,000 if the stage metrics hold.
Standard live execution is the constraint. Orders fill on real liquidity, including during CPI, because there is no news blackout. Create a Venasri login and attach the advisor only after the cash risk per ticket is capped. A legal EA with an illegal size is still a breach of the 5% day.
There is no artificial message cap, and the equity hole is still real
Daily loss is 5%, reset at 00:00 server time. An overnight grid that is down $4,800 at 23:50 is one quiet candle away from the day ending inside the robot. Bot controls should impose a cash stop the advisor cannot talk itself out of, and they should flat the book before server midnight if open equity is near the line.
The Edge Score punishes the one trade the bot oversized
Stages run from Seed to Incubation, Acceleration, Pro, and Pro M. Progress needs an Edge Score from 50 to 90 or higher, built from skill, risk, consistency, and experience, across at least 20 trading days. One loser that is several times the planned unit can drop the score under the stage minimum and freeze multiplier progression for a month.
A sensible band is 0.35% to 0.65% per idea, $350 to $650 on $100,000, so it takes about seven full stops to approach the 5% day. An EA that risks 2% because "the signal is rare" needs three bad signals to outrun a $5,000 day, and the third one may be the score event. Rarity is not a risk model.
Put Equity Guard outside the advisor
The advisor should not be the only thing watching the advisor. Equity Guard at 4.25% daily loss, $4,250 on $100,000, flattens the account while $750 remains before the official $5,000. That flatten has to be able to close the robot's tickets, including winners you wanted to hold, because weekend holding is permitted and Sunday gaps count in the equity day.
Payouts on multiplier profit, up to 90%, settle on the 1st, and profit on your own deposit stays yours at 100%. An EA that is green on the 31st and then breaches at 00:10 on the 1st can miss the settlement and start a quarantine in the same hour. Flat into the clock if the open number is close.
