• ✅ Risk control via auto lot sizing at 1% equity per trade, max 10 simultaneous positions, spread cap at 20 pips

Performance Results

The primary backtest covers EURUSD H1 through the full 2019 calendar year using v9.4 in Autotrade Mode. Across 287 trades, the EA recorded a 94.42% win rate with an expected payoff of 1.47 per trade. The equity curve shows a consistent upward trajectory from approximately 8,000 to 50,000+ units, with one visible mid-period drawdown followed by recovery.

A second equity curve image from v10.0 on the same EURUSD H1 2019 dataset shows a similar upward growth trajectory, described as a “new version” with indicator input support added. No separate statistical metrics are visible in this chart — treat it as visual confirmation only.

The 22.26% relative drawdown is the key risk figure here. It occurred during a mid-year EURUSD retracement and reflects the EA scaling into losing positions using a 1.5× lot multiplier before recovery. Control this by capping Maximum Number of Trades at 5–7 (not the default 10), keeping equity risk at 1% per trade, and monitoring open position count daily. Realistic outcomes at these settings range from moderate drawdown extension to full recovery within the tested period — but single-year backtests cannot confirm behavior across varying market regimes.

⚠️ Backtest covers 2019 only. Modeling quality not confirmed in source data. Market conditions from 2019 differ materially from current volatility. Demo validation mandatory for 90+ days before risking live capital. Backtest results differ from live trading due to slippage and spread variation.

How It Works

Strategy: Reads arrow signals from any MT4 indicator (e.g., CyberZingFxZigZagArrow) on your chosen pair and timeframe — executes market orders after candle close confirmation.

Entry: Signal confirmed after candle close; arrow buffer index checked for buy (buffer 0) and sell (buffer 1) conditions.

Exit: Primary exit at 150-pip take profit; closes opposite-direction trades only when those trades are in profit.

Risk Control: Auto lot at 1% equity risk per trade; max 10 trades, 5 buy / 5 sell; max spread 20 pips, max slippage 3 pips.

✅ Best conditions: Trending markets with clear arrow signals • Low-spread ECN brokers under 2 pips • Indicators with well-defined non-repainting arrows

⚠️ Caution: Ranging choppy markets with frequent signal reversals • High-spread brokers above 20 pips during news events
