Dear traders,

the Zeus EA is a fully automated trading system created by Elite CurrenSea and our strategy partner Trade like a God. It has an expected average monthly gain of 3-15%.

Our live webinar from earlier this week provided more details about the performance, stats, and strategy. We also answered your questions, which we will add in the article itself too.

If you are thinking about expanding your portfolio of EAs and automated systems, then read this article carefully!

Zeus EA Webinar Recording

First of all, we will share the two videos that we prepared:

A short video summary addressing the most important aspects (9 minutes)
The full recording of the live webinar itself (54 minutes)

Feel free to watch both of the videos when you are travelling or in a listening mode. We will also provide you with the key information from these videos in the remainder of this article.

Profit Expectations and Optimizing Lot Size

The minimum recommended trading capital is $2,500. With this capital size, traders can trade all their positions with a 0.01 lot size. The lot size may not increase, even if there is sufficient capital added. The only way to trade with more lots is to rent a 2nd account. Luckily, there is a discount available for traders who trade with 3 or 5 accounts (see pricing below).

In the table below, you can see the recommended number of accounts depending on the capital that you allocate to trading Zeus EA:

Minimum recommended capital	Number of accounts to purchase	Price
€2,500	1	€499
€7,500	3	€1,299
€12,500	unlimited	€1,999

This will ensure that traders optimize their return per account. Increasing the lot size would reduce the expected earnings in USD. Why? Because you need 6x the capital ($15,000 versus $2,500) to trade 3x the lot size (0.03 versus 0.01). In absolute terms, traders can expect on average to earn 3x as much (lot size is 3x as large) but they will be earning relatively less than when trading $2,500.

This is why there is a lot size limit of 0.01 lots per account (per $2,500). If you plan to trade with more than $2,500 capital, traders can purchase multiple licenses and keep their expected profit potential at the same rate. Each license allows traders to trade 0.01 lot size per each $2,500 account.

So if you want to trade with $15,000, then you could purchase unlimited licenses which gives you the ability to trade 6 x 0.01 lot size and maximizes your earnings. By buying multiple licenses, you can significantly reduce the required capital and maintain the optimal return both in absolute and relative terms.

We have a special discount for adding more advisors. Here are the prices for the life-version via our partner broker KTM (without VAT):

1 EA costs €499
3 EAs will only cost you €1,299 → minus 13.4% and save €200
Unlimited EAs will only cost you only €1,999

If you prefer to trade with your own broker, then there are options too, see the product landing page for more details.

More Information about Zeus EA

The Zeus EA is aimed at consistent returns with low draw-downs. This offers traders a stable equity curve and, generally speaking, less worries due to the lower account volatility.

The performance is not negatively affected as long as the spread on the EUR/USD is below 3 pips.

Keep in mind that when trading the Zeus EA via KTM, you will see an average spread on the EUR/USD of about 2.3 pips, which is well below the 3 pip threshold.
