Automated Trading: Amicobot Presents the AB Score to Evaluate Bots and Expert Advisors with Verifiable Data

Milan, Italy, October 15th, 2026, FinanceWire

Amicobot presents the AB Score, a rating from 0 to 100 for evaluating trading bots the company tests directly on live accounts. Updated monthly, the score accompanies reviews and public results to help people evaluate the purchase of an automated trading system.

What the AB Score is

The AB Score is a weighted average of four areas:

• risk management, 30%: maximum drawdown and Sharpe ratio;
• return, 30%: profit factor, Calmar ratio and expected gain per trade;
• stability, 20%: recovery factor, monthly consistency and losing streaks;
• adaptability, 20%: variability of profits and risk over time.

A reliability grade linked to track record length is shown next to the score: low below six months, medium between six and nine, high beyond nine. No score is published with less than three months of data.

The AB Score makes information that would otherwise require technical expertise easier to interpret. Its four components help readers understand how a bot achieved its results, its characteristics and its consistency. The editorial assessment remains distinct from the quantitative score, which is reserved for directly tested systems with sufficient account history.

Who Amicobot is and What it does: From Trading Bot Purchases to Expert Advisor Support

Amicobot is an Italian platform for choosing and purchasing trading bots and expert advisors for MetaTrader 4 and 5. It brings together reviews, live-account results and technical support, from understanding the product to configuring and using the software.

Trading bot purchases. For inclusion in its trading bot reviews, Amicobot requires the developer to operate through an identifiable company and use the bot with their own capital.

Live-account results. The bot must have a public Myfxbook track record generated by trading real capital. Prospective buyers can inspect a verifiable history and identify the company behind the product. Each page describes strategy, markets, price and purchasing options, either through the website or the named seller.

Expert Advisor Purchases: Support before and after

Amicobot provides technical assistance throughout the purchasing process: checking that the broker permits expert advisors, helping with MetaTrader installation, and configuring the bot and its virtual private server (VPS). Support continues in the following months for questions about using the software.

Buyers therefore have a technical point of contact after obtaining the licence. Guides and analysis on the blog complement this support by explaining how automated systems work. Support is technical only: Amicobot does not tell anyone how much to invest or which bot to choose.

Transparency and Independence

For many of the reviewed bots, Amicobot publishes its test accounts on its own Myfxbook profile. The company states that no developer pays to be reviewed and that the score is not for sale. Amicobot earns commissions on purchases made through its website or affiliate links, without changing reviews based on commissions.

“In recent years automated trading has opened up many opportunities, but the transparency and accuracy of results need to be verified: anyone buying a bot should know what they are buying, not receive a closed box,” said Alessio Midolo, Founder and CEO of Amicobot. “Behind every purchase are a person’s savings. Treating them with respect means showing everything, including what does not work.”

Amicobot does not manage capital or provide investment advice. Automated trading involves a high risk of losing capital, and past results are not indicative of future results.
