Cluster US30 EA – Automated Index & Gold Trading on MT4

Cluster US30 EA applies a Stochastic oscillator-based cluster strategy across US30 and XAUUSD on MT4’s M30 and H1 timeframes. Backtests spanning 2020–2024 indicate a profit factor of 2.08–3.82 with win rates reaching 84%, using the crude control-point model (results must not be treated as verified). Developed under the CheapForexEA AutoTrader brand.

Key Highlights

• ✅ Trades both US30 (Wall Street 30) and XAUUSD (Gold) from a single EA installation on MT4.
• ✅ Backtests (2020–2024) indicate profit factors of 2.08–3.82 and win rates of 76–84%—crude model, not verified live.
• ✅ Stochastic cluster entry logic on M30 and H1 timeframes, with three switchable indicator slots for flexibility.
• ✅ No martingale; daily protection cap at $4,500 loss or 10% equity, plus configurable daily profit target.
• ✅ Spread limit filter (540 pips max) and Friday trading toggle prevent adverse execution conditions.

Performance Results

Three backtests were run using MT4’s control-point model—a crude simulation method. The developer explicitly flags this: “results must not be considered reliable.” No live or MyFxBook-verified signal is available at this time.

XAUUSD M30 (2020–2024): $10,000 initial deposit grew to a net profit of $377,465. Profit factor: 2.44. Win rate: 79.5%. Max drawdown: 9.38% absolute, but relative drawdown reached 51%—indicating significant open-trade exposure during adverse sequences.

XAUUSD H1 (2020–2024): Net profit $356,144. Profit factor: 3.82. Win rate: 83.8%. Max drawdown: 3.31% absolute, 63.12% relative. This relative figure reflects deep equity dips during open position clusters—manage lot sizing carefully.

US30 M30 (2021–2024): Net profit $243,820. Profit factor: 2.08. Win rate: 75.9%. Max drawdown: 5.30% absolute, 50.3% relative. Maximum consecutive losses: 27 trades (−$5,946).

The high relative drawdowns (50–63%) across all three tests occur because the EA can hold up to 100 simultaneous trades with no hard stop-loss by default. Control exposure by enabling SL/TP (60-pip stop, 30-pip TP available in settings), reducing lot size from the default 5.0 lots, setting daily protection to trigger early, and running a minimum 90-day demo period before live deployment. Expect meaningful equity swings even in normal conditions.

How It Works

Strategy: Cluster-based positioning on US30 and XAUUSD using Stochastic oscillator signals on M30 and H1 timeframes, exploiting momentum extremes.

Entry: Stochastic (K21, D7, Slowing3) crossing lower level (5) or upper level (95) triggers trade entry signal.

Exit: Daily money target ($1,000), equity stop ($4,500 daily loss), or optional 30-pip take-profit closes positions.

Risk Control: Fixed lot start (5.0), spread filter (540-pip max), daily protection cap, optional SL/TP at 60/30 pips.

✅ Best conditions: Trending Gold markets • Clear US30 directional momentum • Low spread ECN execution • Asian/London session opens

⚠️ Caution: High-volatility news events • Wide spread conditions above filter threshold • Choppy range-bound sessions
