【GWR Weekly Harvest Report】 ~ Made a blunder resulting in minus 61 yen!? A volatile AUD/CAD and facing a weekend with a ¥200,000 unrealized loss ~ (2026/8/24–8/28)
Hello, I am Komugi.
August is ending and we have finally entered September. During the day the heat remains harsh, but at night a hint of autumn is gradually mixing into the breeze.
Now, for this week's operation report, first let me honestly talk about my pathetic configuration mistake
While checking parameter adjustments, I accidentally activated a different logic for the USD/JPY, and I ended up on a three-loss streak
As a result, the confirmed profit/loss in the brokerage report screen became a half-hearted number of 「-61 yen」
However, when I examine and extract only the trades of my autonomous EA “GWR (AUD/USD only)” that I actually run, this week also ended up with a solid positive result
This Week's Real Operating Data (8/24–9/2)

Account's Overall Realized Profit/Loss:-61 yen(Includes USD/JPY misoperation loss of -6,250 yen)

Market environment from last week to this week
This week's AUD/CAD was a strong uptrend with no pullbacks, climbing steadily in one direction.
In the latter half of last week, following the softening of Australia’s July employment data, it briefly fell to the 0.978 range, but the market fully digested that. A strong rebound from the bottom pushed it to the near-0.997 level with near-vertical momentum
On the other hand, the Canadian dollar (CAD) despite Brent crude rising into the 94-dollar range and providing some support, the AUD/CAD retracement pressure in favor of the Australian dollar intensified, accelerating the uptrend of AUD/CAD.
GWR's behavior and the truth of the 200,000 yen unrealized loss (maximum DD 2.53%)
As the market pursued higher, GWR's trend-following logic captured pullbacks accurately, repeatedly taking small profits around +200 to +700 yen
But behind the scenes, a selling logic entered to anticipate a reversal was pushed up, and by the end of the week we held 14 positions with unrealized losses of -200,880 yen (maximum drawdown 2.53%)
Hearing that “unrealized loss is 200,000 yen” might make many people tense
Seven years ago, when I manually traded and blew through summer bonuses, I would have surely turned pale. I would have spent a sleepless weekend thinking, “Should I just close everything at the open Monday morning…?” while clutching my stomach.
However, my current self is remarkably calm.
The reason is clear: GWR has an embedded CanOpenNewLine feature that prevents clustering unnecessary positions within the same price range even if the market moves strongly in one direction
With about 8 million yen in account balance, the required margin currently used is about 1.34 million yen. More than 6.37 million yen of excess margin remains, and the account cushion is 82.5% (maintenance margin well over 570%)
If you compare it to a car, it’s like driving with more than 80% of the fuel tank remaining, on a somewhat steep uphill slope while leaving engine power in reserve
At this stage, what am I thinking…?
