Precise Pair Trading Pro EA MT5 v1.9 + Setfiles

Precise Pair Trading Pro – MetaTrader 5 Two-Symbol Correlation Trading EA

Precise Pair Trading Pro is a MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor built around a two-symbol correlation strategy, developed by Arkadii Zagorulko and sold through the MQL5 Marketplace.

The developer’s own public MQL5 Signal shows 488.57% account growth over 52 weeks across 790 trades, giving buyers real live-account evidence rather than a marketing claim alone.

This store’s package delivers version 1.9 with supplied XAUUSD setfiles for M1 and M15 timeframes.

⚡ Key Highlights

• ⚙️ Trades a two-symbol correlation/imbalance strategy across a main and secondary pair; the developer states it is not a grid or martingale system and normally holds one position per symbol.
• 📈 The developer’s public MQL5 Signal recorded 488.57% growth over 52 weeks, 790 trades, and a 1.44 profit factor on a live ICMarkets MT5 account.
• 🛡️ The same signal shows a 23.84% relative balance drawdown and a 98.93% maximum deposit load, indicating heavy account exposure at peak points.
• 🖥️ The developer warns that broker spreads, execution speed, and leverage materially change results, and recommends real-tick testing before live use.
• 📦 This package includes version 1.9 with four supplied XAUUSD setfiles; the current MQL5 Marketplace listing has since moved to version 2.2.
• ⚠️ Some users report the absence of a confirmed daily stop-loss or news filter in current documentation, alongside floating losses in the 10-20% range.

📊 Performance Results

The strongest available evidence is the developer’s own MQL5 Signal, publicly visible on an ICMarketsEU-MT5-5 account with 1:30 leverage. Over 52 weeks (starting September 2025), the account grew from a €224.79 deposit to €1,335.96 in equity, a 488.57% gain, across 790 trades with a 58.48% win rate and 1.44 profit factor. A Sharpe ratio of 0.12 suggests returns have come with meaningful volatility relative to the growth figure, which matters more than the headline percentage when judging ride comfort.

A separate Myfxbook account under the developer’s username, using the same broker and leverage, showed a similar but distinct snapshot: +432.90% gain, 24.02% drawdown, 664 trades, and a 1.57 profit factor, last updated June 14, 2026. This supports the general trend shown on the MQL5 Signal but reflects an earlier point in time, not the same figures. Both public accounts appear to track the developer’s live-updated EA, which the official MQL5 product page currently lists as version 2.2; the file included in this package is version 1.9, an earlier build, so results achieved on the signal may not transfer directly to this exact package without your own testing.

The 23.84% relative balance drawdown and 98.93% maximum deposit load are the risk figures that matter most here. A deposit load near 99% means the account came close to using its full available margin at some point, leaving little buffer against further adverse movement. Traders running this on smaller accounts should size lots conservatively and monitor open exposure rather than assume the growth figure alone describes the risk profile.

This is a developer-operated public signal rather than an independently audited track record, and past performance does not guarantee future results. See the Precise Pair Trading Pro MQL5 Signal for the live figures cited above.

⚙️ How It Works

Strategy: The EA monitors a main symbol and a secondary symbol for a short-term statistical imbalance relative to their normal relationship, then trades as that relationship diverges and narrows again. The supplied v1.9 configuration uses EURUSD as the main symbol and XAUUSD as the secondary symbol.

Entry: Entries are governed by an entry threshold, a minimum correlation filter, and a smoothing factor calculated over a rolling lookback of historical bars. The supplied settings use a 1.72 entry threshold, 0.8 minimum correlation, and a 1000-bar lookback on the M1 timeframe.

Position / Grid Management: The developer states the EA is not a grid or martingale system and normally opens one position per symbol rather than stacking recovery orders. The supplied v1.9 setfile uses fixed lot sizes (0.04 on the main symbol, 0.02 on the secondary) rather than automatic position sizing; auto-lot functionality was added in a later version not included in this package.

Exit: Positions close as the imbalance narrows past an exit threshold, or when a monetary profit target is reached. The supplied example targets a 100-unit account-currency profit with a 600-second cooldown after each close; the close-loss value in that same example is set to zero, meaning no fixed monetary stop is active in that specific configuration.

Risk Control: Trading is restricted to configured hour windows for both opening and closing trades. No universal hard stop-loss, daily loss limit, or news filter is documented for the product as a whole.

Best Conditions: The developer recommends testing with real tick data and optimizing trading hours for the target broker, since spread, execution speed, and leverage all affect results. General guidance suggests roughly $300-$500 of balance per 0.01 lot on XAUUSD, with a higher figure for EURUSD.

Caution: Without an active monetary stop in a given configuration, an open pair position can remain exposed until the correlation-based exit condition triggers. Users have reported floating or realized losses of roughly 10-20% during individual events; the developer attributes such differences partly to broker, spread, and execution variance.

🧩 Technical Specifications

🎯 Who Should Use This EA

Ideal for:

• Traders comfortable running a two-symbol correlation strategy across EURUSD and XAUUSD rather than a single-pair trend or scalping system.
• Traders who want to test the supplied v1.9 setfiles on a demo account before evaluating the current marketplace build.
• Traders who can actively monitor an account for double-digit drawdowns and adjust lot sizing accordingly.

Best results when:

• The broker offers tight spreads and fast execution on EURUSD and XAUUSD, matching the developer’s real-tick testing recommendation.
• Account capital follows the developer’s guideline of roughly $300-$500 per 0.01 lot on the traded pairs.

Not ideal for: traders who require a confirmed daily stop-loss, news filter, or documented prop-firm-compliant risk controls, since current documentation does not establish these.
