Proof / Case study · June 2026

EA vs manual: roughly 18× the trading volume from the same account.

Same account. Same instruments. Same trader. Same time window. The only variable was the execution method.

In June 2026, one Senti live-beta account traded XAUUSD both manually and through a Senti EA. The automated side closed roughly 18 times the volume of the manual side. This is an activity observation from real trade data, not a performance, profit, or return claim.

[01]The observation / 01 : 04

What one live-beta account did when the same trader automated

Real trade data from one Senti live-beta account, June 2026. The account traded both manually and via a Senti EA on the same instruments in the same window, so the volume difference isolates the execution method.

Manual (user's own trades)
Senti EA (automated)
~8 XAUUSD lots closed
~144 XAUUSD lots closed
Runs when the user is awake and available
Runs 24/7 automated
Broker rebate estimate ~$80
Broker rebate estimate ~$1,445
Baseline activity
Roughly 18× more volume · roughly 18× more estimated IB rebate

Lots and rebate figures are from one account over one short window. Rebate estimates use a ~$10 per lot standard MT5 forex rebate as an illustrative assumption. These figures describe trading activity, not investment performance or returns.

[02]Why volume matters to an IB / 02 : 04

Broker rebate scales with traded volume

Broker rebate is the IB's primary revenue stream, and it is paid on volume. More automated trading volume from the same user means more rebate potential without more work on the IB's side. The multiplier here is one observed data point, not a promised or typical outcome.

The method, and the caveats that come with it

The comparison is deliberately narrow so the variable under observation stays isolated. That same narrowness limits what the data can support.

  • Real trade data from one Senti live-beta account, June 2026.
  • The same account traded both manually (Magic 0) and via the Senti EA (Magic 20260410).
  • Same instruments, same time window; the only variable was the execution method.
  • The only operational difference: the EA runs 24/7 automated, while manual trading runs when the user is awake and available.
  • Full raw trade log kept internal for auditor review; account IDs and trade IDs are redacted from partner-facing summaries.

Honest caveats, stated up front:

  • Single account, short window. This is one data point. It needs longer and broader validation.
  • Volume is the claim, NOT profit. The EA had a mix of wins and losses like any live trading system.
  • Broker rebate rate assumption. A ~$10 per lot standard MT5 forex rebate is used as an illustrative estimate; actual rates vary by broker.
  • User-specific baseline. This trader's manual pattern was single-position discretionary trading. Other users may have different baselines, so the multiplier may differ.

The claim is volume amplification, an activity observation. It is not a profit claim, not a return claim, and not a guaranteed outcome. For verification requests under NDA, contact partners@koni.studio.

A guaranteed or typical multiplier for other users or accounts
One measured data point from one live-beta account in June 2026
Investment performance, returns, or win rate
Trading activity: lots closed per execution method in the same window
Actual rebate income; rates vary by broker and instrument
