【Many beginner-friendly features!】

■Prioritize risk control and automatically calculate lot size

ESCADA's biggest feature is, above all,that it automatically sets the lot size from the Risk value.

For example, with Risk 1, the loss amount is set to be 1% of the account funds, so the lot size is adjusted accordingly.

Since there are two open positions, with Risk 1 there is a maximum 2% drawdown risk to the account.

This eliminates worry about setting overly risky lot sizes relative to the funds, and because of compounding, the lot size grows automatically, leading to efficient capital growth.

■GMT is not required either!

There is no need for annoying GMT settings. Of course, you don't need to adjust for daylight saving time or standard time.

It's one of those things you might not realize you needed, so it's welcome.

Regarding ESCADA,the only parameter to adjust is the “Risk value,” so setup and operation are very simple.

【Forward Performance】

Forward start: monthly profit and loss from 2016.10–2016.08.

There are two negative months, but on averagethe losses are smaller than the profits.

Can you see?

This is reflected in a PF (Profit Factor) of 2.04.

TP: Looking at the TP and SL values, SL in pips is larger, so thisresults from the very high win rate

PF valueis high.

【High win rate comes from time limitations + market awareness】

ESCADA is designed to enter in the early morning and close positions by 15:00 on the same day.

Also,when the market situation immediately before entry is judged to be dangerous, the lot size is minimized to reduce losses.

In forward testing, the win rate is 80%, and in backtests (14 years) the win rate is 82%.

Because entries are carefully selected, the number of trades is relatively low, but

given the high win rate, it is understandable.

【Even with Risk 5, max drawdown is 10%, annual return is over 30%】

You can see that the drawdown for Risk 1 is around 2%.

But doesn't that leave your funds idle…

Risk tolerance varies by person, but normally 10–30% is within the acceptable range.

We have provided long-term backtest data for Risk 5, so let's see how big the difference is!

Risk 5 relative drawdown 8.9%, maximum drawdown 1,083,340 yen (2.3%).

As expected, it's impressive that losses can be controlled by the Risk value✨

However, in fact, the maximum lot size hit 10 around 2010, and since then it's been a simple-interest operation; as a reference, I compared year-over-year profitability for Risk 1 and Risk 5.

Risk 1 (drawdown 2%) annual return 5–14%

Risk 5 (drawdown 10%) annual return 30–44% or more

If you look at this from the perspective of compound interest…

Risk 1 doubles in about 10 years; Risk 5 doubles tenfold in about 6 years.

The power of compounding is amazing…

In reality, running an EA for more than 10 years may not be realistic, but

even in the shorter terma 30% annual return with 10% risk is excellent!

【Bonus】

If you are considering running multiple EAs, you can allocate 50% of your funds to ESCADA via parameters, so don’t worry.

【Summary】

If you can maintain an 80% win rate, you can expect profit roughly in line with backtests.

Set the Risk value within your tolerance and operate it with compounding—an EA worth using.

The setup is simple and recommended for beginners!
