Açıklama
EUR EDGE is a selective, fully automated EURUSD cBot designed to operate using custom rule-based market logic on the M30 timeframe.
The strategy waits for qualified market conditions rather than trading continuously. When a valid opportunity occurs, it enters using market execution, applies defined stop protection and uses a fixed 1.5 R profit target.
Risk is user controllable. Position size can be calculated automatically as a percentage of account balance or set using fixed lots. The published configuration uses 1% balance risk per trade.
Position exposure is also configurable. The published default is 5 simultaneous open positions, with a user-adjustable maximum of 10. Each position comes from its own independently qualified setup, so total initial risk can increase when several positions are open at the same time.

Prop-firm compatible?
No — EUR EDGE is not designed as a dedicated prop-firm compliance system. However, traders can adjust the available risk settings to operate within their prop firm's limits, provided the firm permits cBots and the selected settings comply with the firm's current rules.
Backtesting
EUR EDGE is not broker-specific and is not restricted to IC Markets. It is designed to operate with cTrader brokers offering EURUSD, on both live and demo accounts.
IC Markets cTrader was the environment used to produce the published historical validation results below. Users can also run and backtest EUR EDGE using other cTrader brokers or cTrader Demo environments.
Results are not expected to be identical between brokers because historical tick data, spreads, commissions, swaps, execution and symbol specifications can differ.
The published three-year backtest used the following configuration:
- Symbol: EURUSD
- Signal timeframe: M30
- Test period: 1 September 2023 to 24 September 2026
- Starting capital: 10,000
- Leverage: 1:1000
- Historical data: Tick data from server (accurate)
- Spread: Historical bid/ask spread supplied by the server tick data. In this data mode cTrader does not use a separate spread input.
- Commission: USD 30 per USD 1 million volume
- Target: 1.5 R
- Allow Buys: Yes
- Allow Sells: Yes
- Position sizing: Balance Risk Percent
- Risk per trade: 1%
- Maximum open positions: 5
The settings above are the user-accessible settings used for the published backtest configuration.
3-year backtest — Sep 2023 to Sep 2026
- Return: +29.12%
- Profit factor: 1.17
- Maximum balance drawdown: 20.98%
- Maximum equity drawdown: 21.71%
- Total trades: 318
A separate recent two-year test using the same published configuration and 1% risk per trade produced:
2-year backtest — Sep 2024 to Sep 2026
- Return: +61.36%
- Profit factor: 1.45
- Maximum equity drawdown: 11.12%
- Total trades: 224
A separate six-month test using the same published configuration produced:
6-month backtest — Apr 2026 to Sep 2026
- Return: +19.97%
- Profit factor: 2.18
- Maximum equity drawdown: 4.15%
- Total trades: 37
The recent period performed more strongly than the earlier portion of the three-year test. This should not be assumed to continue in future market conditions.
Historical results can vary between brokers and accounts because of differences in historical tick data, spreads, commissions, swaps, execution and symbol specifications.
Trading involves risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Özet
Risk management is user-configurable, allowing position sizing based on a fixed percentage of the account balance (default 1% per trade) or fixed lot sizes. The bot supports up to 10 simultaneous open positions, with a default limit of 5, each independently qualified to manage exposure. It does not use martingale or loss-recovery techniques.
EUR EDGE is compatible with live and demo cTrader accounts across various brokers offering EURUSD, not limited to any specific broker. Backtesting over three years (2023–2026) shows a return of approximately 29.12% with a profit factor of 1.17 and maximum drawdown near 21%. More recent two-year and six-month tests indicate improved performance metrics.
A 14-day trial version is available for demo accounts, using the same strategy parameters. The bot is not specifically designed for proprietary trading firm compliance but can be adjusted to fit certain risk requirements. Recommended minimum account size is $1,000.
