Every catalog audit runs the same documented protocol — the protocol is part of the product. Deviations are printed in the audit.

EA	free Market demo, current version (version recorded)
Inputs	vendor defaults, untouched
Symbol	the vendor's advertised main symbol
Chart timeframe	vendor recommendation; otherwise M1 (recorded)
Window	2020-01-01 → test date, identical for all — comparability across the catalog
Model	Every tick based on real ticks
Execution delay	10 ms
Deposit / leverage	10,000 USD / 1:100

The audit engine then reconstructs every trade from the deal list, validates the pairing against the tester log (or the report's own holding-time figures), verifies the balance to the cent, and runs the detectors and prop-firm simulations. Same inputs → same audit, bit for bit.

Run the same test yourself

1. In MT5, open the EA's Market page and press Free demo — it downloads into your terminal for tester use.
2. Strategy tester: choose the EA, symbol, M1 chart (or vendor recommendation), custom period from 2020-01-01, model "Every tick based on real ticks", 10 ms delay, 10,000 USD deposit.
3. After the run: right-click the results → Report → HTML; and save the tester journal/log file too.
4. Bring both to Audit my EA.
