Description
Tengoku V3 by SeekXow
Tengoku V3 is an automated XAUUSD cBot built around market structure, pivot validation and systematic trade execution. The strategy identifies structural HH/LL developments and waits for a validated opposing pivot before creating a new trade setup. Once a setup is confirmed, the cBot calculates predefined entry, SL and TP levels and manages the resulting orders automatically.
Strategy & Market Structure
Tengoku V3 uses a stateful market-structure engine to identify:
• Higher Highs (HH)
• Higher Lows (HL)
• Lower Highs (LH)
• Lower Lows (LL)
A new structural HH or LL creates a new setup. The following opposing pivot must pass a three-candle validation before the setup becomes executable. The strategy is designed specifically for XAUUSD.
Entry & Execution
After a valid structure and pivot are identified, the cBot calculates two opposing entry levels based on the structural anchor and validated pivot. SL and TP levels are calculated automatically from the distance between these levels and the selected Reward Multiplier. Orders are managed automatically throughout the setup lifecycle. When a new structural HH or LL appears, pending orders from the previous setup are cancelled while existing positions are left untouched. The cBot also manages subsequent trade outcomes and predefined re-entry conditions within the setup.
Dynamic Risk Management
Position size is calculated from the current account balance and the selected Risk % per Trade. As the account balance changes, position sizing adjusts accordingly, allowing the risk model to compound automatically.
Recommended Risk per Trade:
0.2%
Maximum recommended Risk per Trade:
1%
Because the strategy uses a lower reward multiplier configuration, conservative risk settings are recommended.
Recommended Parameters
Risk % per Trade
Defines the percentage of the current account balance used for position sizing.
- Recommended: 0.2%
- Maximum recommended: 1%
Reward Multiplier
Controls the TP distance relative to the calculated SL distance.
- Recommended: 0.2
- Maximum recommended: 0.3
Warm-up History
Loads additional historical data and replays the market-structure engine before live execution. This provides additional historical context to the structure engine before the cBot begins placing orders.
Recommended: 20 history chunks
Recommended Usage
Symbol: XAUUSD
Timeframe: M15 to H1
Recommended minimum account balance: $1,000
For accounts below $1,000, a cent account may be considered depending on the broker's minimum volume requirements. The strategy can also be used in a copy-trading setup where appropriate.
Backtest Results
The following backtest was performed using:
Symbol: XAUUSD
Timeframe: M15
Period: January 2019 – December 2025
Risk per Trade: 0.2%
ROI: 7,729.05%
Profit Factor: 3.8
Maximum Balance Drawdown: 10,87%
These results are historical backtest results and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual trading results may differ due to spreads, commissions, slippage, liquidity, execution conditions, broker specifications and changes in market behaviour.
Important Notes
Tengoku V3 is designed specifically for XAUUSD and should be evaluated under the recommended symbol and timeframe before being used in live trading. The recommended 0.2% risk setting is the configuration used for the presented backtest. Users can select different risk settings, but higher risk can materially change drawdown and overall account exposure. Automated trading involves risk of loss. Test the cBot under your own broker conditions and use a risk level appropriate for your account.
Summary
Key features include dynamic risk management where position size adjusts automatically based on the current account balance and a fixed risk percentage per trade (recommended at 0.2%, maximum 1%). Entry, stop loss, and take profit levels are calculated systematically using structural anchors and pivot points, with a configurable reward multiplier controlling take profit distance relative to stop loss. The cBot manages orders automatically, cancels pending orders on new setups, and supports predefined re-entry conditions.
Backtesting from January 2019 to December 2025 on XAUUSD M15 timeframe shows a 7,729% ROI, a profit factor of 3.8, and a maximum drawdown of 10.87%. Recommended minimum account balance is $1,000. The strategy suits high-frequency scalping style trading with low drawdown and consistent returns, supporting limit order types and fixed risk percentage risk models.
