Description
FOUR STRATEGIES. THREE MARKETS. ONE SYSTEMATIC PORTFOLIO.
StratVector Core is a multi-strategy trading system for cTrader designed to combine several independent trading approaches inside one portfolio.
Instead of relying on a single setup or market, Core distributes trading opportunities across Bitcoin, Gold and XRP using four specialised strategy modules.
The objective is simple:
build a more balanced trading process by combining different market behaviours, timeframes and trade-management styles in one automated system.
WHY STRATVECTOR CORE?
Many trading bots depend on one single idea.
StratVector Core does not.
The portfolio combines:
• Bitcoin trend / breakout trading
• Gold trend / breakout trading
• Gold intermarket analysis using Gold and Silver
• XRP momentum / trend trading
Each module searches for its own type of market opportunity and manages its positions independently.
This means Core does not need every strategy to perform at the same time.

BUILT AS A PORTFOLIO
Core is not designed to constantly stay in the market.
Some strategies may remain inactive for extended periods while waiting for specific market conditions.
That is intentional.
The system focuses on selective entries rather than forcing trade frequency.
PORTFOLIO RISK MANAGEMENT
Position sizing is calculated dynamically from current account equity.
Users can control:
• Risk per trade
• Maximum total open portfolio risk
• Dynamic compounding
When the configured portfolio risk limit is reached, additional entries are blocked until risk becomes available again.
This allows the four strategies to operate inside one common risk framework.
MARKETS USED
Bitcoin
Gold
XRP
Silver is used as a reference market for the Gold intermarket strategy and is not traded directly by that module.
TRADE MANAGEMENT
The four strategy modules use different exit concepts depending on the underlying system.
These include structured profit targets, partial profit-taking and trend-following trade management.
The strategies are intentionally not forced into one identical exit model.
WHO IS CORE FOR?
StratVector Core is designed for traders who prefer:
• systematic trading
• portfolio-style diversification
• clearly defined risk
• lower-frequency swing trading
• automated execution
• multiple strategies instead of one single trading idea
Compatibility: Verified on cTrader Desktop 5.10.16.
CAPITAL
Recommended starting capital: $10,000 or more.
Lower balances may technically operate depending on broker specifications, available margin and selected risk settings, but the reference configuration and published performance are based on a $10,000 account.
IMPORTANT
Historical backtests are not a guarantee of future performance.
Real trading results can differ because of spread, commission, swap, slippage, liquidity, symbol specifications and broker execution.
Always use risk settings appropriate for your account and personal risk tolerance.
Summary
Key features include equity-based dynamic position sizing, configurable risk per trade (default 1%) and maximum total open risk (default 4%), automatic trade and position management, and portfolio-level risk controls. The system supports both long and short exposures and adapts position sizes based on current account equity.
The strategy architecture consists of one Bitcoin-specific module, two Gold modules (including an intermarket module using Silver data), and one XRP-specific module, each with proprietary signal, exit, and trade management logic embedded within the cBot.
Backtested on cTrader with FxPro Demo data from May 2023 to August 2026, the bot showed a return of +189.79%, a profit factor of 1.77, and a maximum balance drawdown of 11.02%. It operates with low-frequency swing trading style and uses market orders on hourly charts. Broker symbol mappings are adjustable to accommodate different naming conventions. Risk management tools include fixed risk percentage, stop loss, take profit, and trailing stop loss.
