    Manual Trading or Algo/EA Trading?

    Manual trading is the better option as most of the EA I am seeing in current market are just Martingale. Different companies marketing in different ways to say it algo trading but the truth is they are just martingale EA. If it has to be martingale, it can be done better manually.
