Nice to meet you, I’m Yoko. Her husband Kenji, a developer with over 20 years of FX experience, has built an asset-protective, proprietary logic to safeguard the future of his younger wife by 21 years and “the peace of the family,” and is now sharing it. In our shop, we have prepared three product lines tailored to the nature of the market and the characteristics of currency pairs. ■ Gold-only series “Alchemy Duo,” “Alchemy Flexible,” and “Alchemy Rising Tide” Thanks to the support of many users, these are the flagship products of our shop. By thoroughly analyzing the price movements unique to gold (XAUUSD), the “alchemy for steadily compounding profits” in Alchemy Duo, and the “increase profits by improving capital efficiency” in Alchemy Flexible, we have now released a third installment, “Alchemy Rising Tide.” Based on the long-term upward tendency of gold prices, the design focuses on buying by actively catching pullbacks and selling by carefully tying in to the accumulation of buys, emphasizing a buyer-driven approach. You can also choose an operation risk mode to adjust to your own market view. The three differently characterized logics can be used alone or in combination to maximize their strengths. ■ AUDCAD-only “Twin Blades” and more from the “Yoko” brand Kenji, my husband, excels most in the AUDCAD currency pair. The EA “Twin Blades,” a two-blade system (sabre: broad-range capture and dagger: ultra-selective with 79% win rate), carefully captures its unique tendency to revert to a range, and has an 11-year track record of never breaking and a profit factor of 1.95. This represents our stable-minded flagship. In addition, we offer several other products from the “Yoko” brand that started our development, such as “Yoko’s Prayer” and “Yoko’s Amulet,” which can be started with a margin of 150,000 yen. While they may not shine like GOLD, they quietly, reliably protect your family’s assets. ■ Select Entries “Market Bias System 510 Pro” and “Guardian of Gold” A series that meticulously narrows down entry timing. “Guardian of Gold” targets only the boundary where the GOLD daily chart switches, using a no-martingale, single-position operation, and has a track record of 12 years with a profit factor of 3.36 and drawdown of 3–4%. “Market Bias System 510 Pro” is a professional-grade foray born from over 15 years of data analysis that exploits anomalies such as Goto days and day-of-week effects hidden in USDJPY. Both pursue high win rates with low drawdowns using a small number of positions. 【Our Operating Philosophy】 Rather than chasing flashy profits, we prioritize minimizing drawdown to the extreme and ensuring the preservation of valuable assets. I operate on the same account myself, facing this activity from the same perspective as our users with integrity. Behind-the-scenes of development and the daily life we share with FX are serialized as the story “Midnight Chart” on note. We would be happy if you could glimpse our feelings. ▼ Our activity base “note” is here 　Kenji｜AI Strategy Room for those in their 60s

The Golden Guardian, why there are few deals for the official forward — We disclose trades from our verification account

Golden Guardian — I will answer the questions we have received

Hello, this is Yoko.

Recently, regarding the Golden Guardian, we have received several inquiries like, “Although official forward trading is infrequent, is it actually functioning well?” We seem to have caused some concern, so I will answer here without waiting for the next installment of the Guardian series.

First, the conclusion

・Guardian is originally an EA with few trades (1,596 trades in 12 years, about 10 per month)

・The official forward had a period when trading stopped due to an immediate post-release issue (fixed in v1.04 on September 7)

・Another factor may be environmental differences in the official forward, which could also explain the low trading activity (undergoing verification)

・In our demo account, from September 3 to October 2, about one month, it traded at a pace close to backtesting, 14 times

Guardian is originally a “wait EA”

Guardian is a no-averaging, one-position operation EA that only moves when the price exceeds the previous day’s high or low. In 12 years of backtesting, it has traded 1,596 times,about 10 times per month, about 2–3 times per weekpace.

This is an average statement, so there are weeks when it hardly moves depending on market conditions. The low trading frequency is not a malfunction; it is a characteristic of this EA.

What happened in the official forward

① Post-release issue

Immediately after release, in some account environments, capital management calculations were not performed correctly, preventing new orders from being placed. In the official forward as well, trading did not occur for a while due to this effect.

It was fixed on September 7 with v1.04, after which trading resumed. We apologize for the concern.

② Environmental differences (under review)

There is another possible factor we are considering.

Guardian has a safety mechanism that omits new entries when spreads are wide. The daily timeframe switch that Guardian targets tends to widen spreads around those times across any account.

The environment of the official forward seems to show wider gold spreads than the accounts we use for operation and validation, so we think entries may be omitted for that reason. We are continuing to verify, and will inform you here as soon as we know more.

How our demo account moves

To show real movement, here is the trading of Guardian as we verified it inthe demo accountfrom September 3 to October 2, all 14 tradesas-isWe are running it alongside other EAs in a demo account with ample funds, so we changed lot sizes in the middle; thus, the table’s profits and losses are allconverted to 0.1 lot amountsThe broker name of the account is undisclosed.

Date Direction Profit/Loss
(converted to 0.1 lots)
September 3Sell+¥250
September 4Sell-¥94
September 8Sell+¥247
September 10Sell+¥155
September 11Sell-¥12,868
September 14Sell+¥4,235
September 16Sell+¥203
September 17Buy-¥2,769
September 21Sell+¥5,998
September 22Sell+¥707
September 23Sell+¥2,575
September 25Buy-¥2,494
October 2Buy+¥24,718
October 2Sell-¥2,697
Total (14 trades, 9 wins, 5 losses)+¥18,166

This table shows all Guardian trades from September 3 to October 2. In actual lots, September 3 was 0.01, September 4–11 were 0.5, and from September 14 onward, 0.1. The amounts in the table are the actual profits/losses adjusted to 0.1 lots.

About 14 trades in roughly one month.At a pace of about three trades per week, it moved at a frequency close to backtesting (about 10 trades per month).

Wins: 9, Losses: 5.Win rate is about 64%, lower than the 12-year backtest (77.1%).

Wins can extend through trailing.The buy on October 2 was +¥24,718 (0.1 lot).

Just sharing only the good points is not our style, so here are aspects of concern as well.

The biggest loss is the sell on September 11.It reached stop loss, which was -¥12,868 in 0.1 lot equivalent (actually -¥64,338 at 0.5 lots). We do not average down, but when stop loss is reached, that amount of loss will occur.

The total for this period is +¥18,166 in 0.1 lot terms(If you sum with actual lots, it would be -¥32,300). The two events on September 11 loss and October 2 gain heavily influenced the total. Excluding these two, it’s about +¥6,300.

Fourteen trades are still few, and I think it’s premature to draw conclusions from this alone.

Also, since this is a demo account, there are differences from a real account in order execution and spreads. The official forward uses different accounts and lots, so you cannot compare the amounts directly. Please view this as only an example of movement.

Backtests were performed with what spread level?

We also receive questions like, “With what spread were the product page backtests conducted?”

The twelve-year backtest wasconducted using MT5 Strategy Tester with real tick data (history quality 99%)and spreads were not fixed;they were account variable spreads based on actual price movements at the time. The numbers on the product page were tested with a “low-spread account” where spreads are narrow.

On accounts with wider spreads, performance decreases. Therefore, under the same conditions, we also tested with a“Standard account”(an account with wider spreads than the low-spread account).

Low-spread account
(as shown on product page)		 Standard account
Profit factor 3.36 2.51
Maximum drawdown
(as a percentage of balance)		 3–4% 5%
Win rate 77.1% 69.6%
12-year net profit
(with 1,000,000 yen margin)		 About 7,980,000 yen About 6,690,000 yen

July 2014 – July 2026, 0.50 lot fixed, based on past verification results, not a guarantee of future performance.

When spreads widen, the numbers drop. However, even with Standard account, the profit factor remains around 2.5 and maximum drawdown around 5%, which are practical levels.

In other words, in environments with wider spreads than the Standard account, performance may drop further, and entries may be omitted more often. Please check the gold spread for your account in advance.

For those considering

・Low trading frequency is due to the EA’s nature, not a malfunction.

・Accounts with narrow spreads tend to show better performance and more entry opportunities (see the table above). Please check the gold spread for your account in advance.

・Do not judge based solely on the official forward trades. It is most reliable to test movements on your own account starting with smaller lots.

Future plans

We will share both the good and bad points about the official forward as we learn them here.

Also, from October 5, we started running Golden Guardian solo on a real account (Standard account). When trading accumulates, we will also announce that here.

We also plan to deliver a Guardian episode in the latter part of the serialized “Yoko and Kenji's GOLD EA Mastery Log.” There, we will discuss Guardian’s mechanism in more detail.

Thank you for reading to the end.

Yoko
