It works on both Metatrader 4 and Metatrader 5 trading platforms and according to the vendor it has shown promising results throughout the available history.

How Wild Side EA works
There is no official website for this Forex EA, and the only source of information for it is the MQL5 website. Here, the vendor has briefly explained how the system works while highlighting all the main features. We have a description of the EA settings along with vendor recommendations. Finally, there are screenshots of backtesting results and links to live trading accounts.
This EA is sold on MQL5 by Marat Baiburin, a Russian trader. According to their MQ5 profile, this person does not possess much experience, and they have only released two products through the website. These are the MT4 and MT5 versions of Wild Side. Since we have no information on this person’s background and trading history, we cannot say that vendor transparency is maintained for this robot.
With each trade, this EA uses take profits and stop losses. The vendor states that it uses a unique transaction tracking algorithm but does not explain how exactly the algorithm works. You can run it on M5 charts for different pairs like CHF/JPY, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, EUR/AUD, USD/CHF, EUR/USD, EUR/CHF, EUR/CAD, and USD/CAD.
