The first thing that you need to know is that you don't want to choose a perfect EA with some accuracy. You want to choose an EA with a certain (positive) trade expectancy rather than accuracy. What will you do with an with 75% trading accuracy if its losses are 10 times bigger than wins?

For starters, you are better off with manual trading than an EA. 99% of EA's make money for the developer than the end-user. And the other 1%, the coder develops his own EA and uses it and does not sell it to anybody else, exemplifying the principle "no one wants to share their wealth".
Try to read up on online resources, train yourself [that's how all traders started], review the brokers and select one that suits you, start off with a demo account and do a dry run for a specific period and finally, once you have got it right, move on to live acc.
Hope that helps..

Definitely manual trading, the main reason being trader discretion. Read the following post:
