【Forward / Monthly gained pips】
In one year, over 6,000 pips were earned; with 0.1 lot operation, the realized P/L is 640,000 yen.
January and February 2017 were an explosive bonus season, but other months had returns of 2% to 8% per month.
The maximum drawdown during the forward period is 300,000 yen, so for a 1,000,000 yen account it's within tolerable range, but
Because 0.1 lot can take up to 20 positions, requiring larger margin, the recommended margin is at least 1,200,000 yen as indicated by fx-on Forward.
【Backtest: Maximum drawdown and expected profit】
From the backtests, the maximum drawdown is 19,576 USD, so with a 1,000,000 yen account there are times when it could blow up depending on timing…
Based on the most recent performance, a 1,000,000 yen account should be okay, but
If you operate safely by referring to past risk, with 0.02–0.03 lots per 1,000,000 yen across 20 positions, it should avoid blowing up.
It should avoid blowing up.
【Buy-only logic, so avoiding extreme downtrends is advisable】
(Monthly backtest data)
Over the year, +6% to +40% is steady, but 2016 was slightly negative, and
There were large drawdowns in June–July 2010 and February–March 2016.
This is actually because this EA uses a “long-only” logic,
When compared with the USD/JPY chart, a remarkable correlation was observed.
From January 2016 onward, unrealized losses increased, and you can see negative P/L, right?
Also, in late 2013 to 2014, profits increased greatly due to the Abenomics rally.
In range markets, it gains a little every month; in big uptrends, it can win big.
