This is our unbiased Elite CurrenSea review.

The Brains Behind Elite CurrenSea

Elite CurrenSea was co-founded by Chris Svorcik and Mykyta Barabanov in 2014 and is still actively managed by both Chris oversees the trading strategies and money management services while Mykyta is responsible for business development, IT & Marketing.

Both the co-founders of ECS have contributed a lot to the company’s evolution, which at the time of review had 10 full-time employees and twice as many strategic partners. This, together with a combined trading experience of over 30 years, allows the company to effectively offer automated trading and money management services to retail and corporate clients/

What Does Elite CurrenSea Offer?

ECS has evolved over the last decade from a forex education platform to a fully automated trading and software development hub. They now offer multi-asset managed portfolio services, automated trading tools, trading strategies, and a strong emphasis on transparency and investor relationships.

Let’s have a glance at ECS services and trading software, which we divide into two categories, money management services, and individual software in the form of MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisors.

Money Management Service

The Flagship Account (Semi-Automated) with 113% Return To Date

If you want to invest money in a portfolio-managed style but do not want to manage the portfolio, the ECS Flagship account is for you.

It is a multi-asset portfolio managed by experts Chris Svorcik and Mykyta Barabanov. As of January 2023, the Flagship account had $0.7 million equity. The portfolio relies on a mix of News, Latency, and Momentum trading methods and according to the founders – offers the most advanced exposure to the market to date

You do not need to take part in active trading or worry about setting the orders, charts, and going through various strategies. Everything with the Flagship account is managed for you. The best part, you can see the performance of the portfolio live at any time.

Chris Svorcik recently shared the consistent and impressive total return of the flagship account with a positive 113% return to date. Its monthly return for January 2024 is a healthy +3.05%. The results so far are fairly close to the total targeted return of 130% set for the Flagship portfolio.

The Flagship portfolio invests mainly in Forex, CFDs on stocks & Indices, and some Crypto CFDs. You can join through the managed account program through one of the trusted brokers of ECS or as a solo trader.

The managed account offers profit-sharing packages:

  • 50% profit for net capital of >$800
  • 45% profit for net capital of >$15,000
  • 40% profit for net capital of >$50,000

ECS Signals

ECS offers a taste of their automated trading through a free live signals service on Telegram. Keep in mind that due to the nature of some of the EAs, they are not fully represented in the signals group, but the channel still offers an impressive amount of trading ideas that, when used diligently, can lead to sustainable live trading account growth (check myfxbook for the latest performance).

For the time being, the free signals service includes:

  • German DAX
  • US Dow Jones
  • GBP/JPY

Expert Advisors (Automated)

We will cover each individual EA in the section below, but what’s important to point out here is that any of the software ECS is offering to its customers can be directly invested in via a managed account through either one of their regulated broker partners or directly via ECS.

The former method was only available via cryptocurrencies and as we were explained worked by you topping up ECS segregated crypto cold wallets and ECS deposits the respective amount with one of their brokers.

During the review, Mykyta mentioned that the company was in the process of obtaining an investment/brokerage license to make more payment methods available to its clients.

What Money Management Stands Out?

ECS investment mix

ECS aspires to 80% yearly returns for its clients via a mix of its managed accounts, which they help you select depending on your financial goals, risk profile, market preferences, and other factors.

You can take an investing quiz on their website to see which of the services is best suitable for you.

Investor Disclosure

At the time of the review we have a small investment in the ECS money management services with 70% of capital allocated in their Flagship method and 30% across Expert Advisors.

MetaTrader 4 / 5 Expert Advisors (EAs)

Below you will find a list of every active Expert Advisor in the ECS roster, keep in mind that due to the nature of the Forex & CFD market – new expert advisors are introduced, some existing EAs go through updates and some, sadly, become obsolete.

As per industry standards, you can find backtesting data on each of the ECS’ Expert Advisors, as well as the links to the myfxbook performance.

We will do our best to keep this section up to date, amending the review depending on the changes with ECS.
