The published test used the Aggressive 0.50% profile to make the strategy behaviour easier to evaluate. The default Conservative profile uses 0.10% risk per trade. Results can vary because of broker data, symbol specifications, spreads, commissions, swaps and execution quality.
The strategy uses deterministic adaptive rules and does not use machine learning. This is an independent third-party product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any broker or account evaluation provider.
Trading involves risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Summary
Key features include strict stop loss and take profit settings per trade, fixed lot sizing for predictable risk management, and no use of martingale, grid, or averaging strategies. A professional on-chart dashboard provides real-time monitoring of account balance, equity, daily profit, and displays the current weekly trend status.
The bot is optimized for the volatility of Gold, aiming to capture significant moves while filtering market noise. It is suitable for prop firm challenges such as FTMO and MyForexFunds, focusing on safe capital growth with a maximum drawdown of approximately 13%. The strategy waits for oversold conditions to buy in an uptrend and overbought conditions to sell in a downtrend, enhancing entry precision. Low spread accounts (Raw/ECN) are recommended for optimal performance.
