Make sure their myfxbook account is fully verified. Check if they are not using Martingale style of trading or any risky style. Also, check their draw down (shouldn't be more than 30%) and if they have been trading for at least 3 months.

Those are very basic requrements. What about broker regulation? 30% max DD also doesnt tell you a lot. How much are you trying to earn while allowing that kind of DD? How efficient is the system? And 3 months is also not really enough time to evaluate the system. I would say 6-9 months at least.

I followed a pamm account once because it had great results but 1 month after I joined, I realised that they used a martingale system. There was an over night price reversal and I woke up to find 25+ losing positions on my account. I got there just in time to see see margin call from my broker and all my position were closed. In short - NEVER use martingale

I don’t think only 3 months is enough; I don’t count any account unless having more than 1 year trading record.

Yes, 3 months is certainly not enough. I would say a minimum 6 months of trading history.

1st, no martingale. Then, see the drawdown with trade age more than 6 months at least.
The main advantage of martingale trading system is; when it starts to make loss; then consistently SL in a long row; so better to avoid.

Maybe, it’s the disadvantage; not the advantage! I got your point since; I worked with such a long time on Martingale trading system.

I explain in this article how I went about choosing the PAMM accounts for a new 'high stability' portfolio.
It might not be the best selection of accounts, but I explain how I went about it, such as what filters I used to screen out unsuitable accounts.
