Strategy logic

  • H1 trend filter: EMA 50 vs EMA 200 gap must exceed 2× the H1 ATR — trades only in that direction.
  • M15 EMA 50/200 must agree with the H1 direction.
  • M5 entry: a pullback into EMA 9/15 that closes back beyond EMA 9 in the trend direction.
  • Volatility guard: no new entries while the M5 ATR(14) is above $6.70.
  • Stop-loss at the signal candle's extreme; take-profit at 3× the stop distance (1:3).
  • One open position at a time, at most 5 entries per day.

Risk controls

  • 2% of balance risked per trade; lot size is calculated from the stop distance and grows with the balance.
  • Small accounts: the 0.01 minimum lot is used only when it risks 6% or less, otherwise the signal is skipped.
  • No martingale, no grid, no averaging down.
  • Long losing streaks and deep equity drawdowns occur — the exact figures for each test are in its report below.

Position sizing limits risk per trade; it is not a guaranteed loss cap.

Important disclaimer

These are simulated historical results from an MT5 Strategy Tester report on the Exness-MT5Real7 price feed with 100% real ticks (1 April – 30 September 2026). They are not live trading and not independent validation. The entry rules were selected on part of this period, so results on new data can be lower. +485.17% is the total return over the whole 6-month period, not a monthly return. Other brokers' spreads, commission and slippage change the outcome. The balance graph uses closed-trade count, not calendar time. Drawdowns of 28.54% and losing streaks of 10 trades occurred inside this test. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Trading involves substantial risk of loss.
