The5ers is a proprietary trading firm based in Israel that offers three main funding programs: Bootcamp (a $100,000 demo evaluation with low-pressure rules), High-Stakes Challenge (one-step evaluation with a 6 percent profit target), and Hyper Growth (a progressive funding model that increases account size as you hit milestones). Expert Advisors are permitted on all three programs.
The5ers Bootcamp is popular with EA traders because it removes the time pressure: no max evaluation period, just a 10 percent profit target with a maximum 4 percent loss limit (no daily-loss limit). The High-Stakes program is more typical with a 6 percent profit target, 5 percent daily-loss limit, and a 10 percent max-drawdown limit. Both work well with trend-following, swing, and conservative scalping EAs.
The5ers requires a minimum of three trading days before payout (down from six in earlier versions). This is easy for any EA that takes at least one trade per day. AutoPipShop tags 300+ EAs as challenge-safe. Filter by strategy below, forward-test on the live The5ers demo terminal before paying the evaluation fee, and check the specific program rules for any updates.

Frequently asked questions about The5ers EAs
Does The5ers allow EAs?
Yes. The5ers permits Expert Advisors on Bootcamp, High-Stakes, and Hyper Growth programs. Standard restrictions apply: no copy-trading across The5ers accounts, no third-party signal services that multiple traders use, and no latency exploitation.
What is The5ers Bootcamp?
Bootcamp is a $100,000 evaluation account with no time limit. The target is 10 percent profit with a maximum 4 percent loss. There is no daily-loss limit, which makes Bootcamp the most EA-friendly option among major prop firms.
Can I run any EA on The5ers?
Most rule-based EAs are permitted. Avoid ungated martingale, no-stop grid systems, and HFT bots. The5ers detects unusual execution patterns and will revoke funded accounts that show signs of rule abuse.
Does The5ers have a news-trading ban?
The5ers restricts news trading during the evaluation phase but permits it on funded accounts. The safest practice for EA traders is to add a news filter that pauses trading 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after high-impact economic releases.
How long does it take to pass The5ers with an EA?
Bootcamp has no time limit, so it depends purely on the EA performance. High-Stakes is a 6 percent target with no maximum evaluation period either (you need at least 3 trading days). A consistent EA generating 2 to 3 percent per month typically passes High-Stakes in 8 to 12 weeks.
