■■■[EA Summary]■■
K-Cody_EURJPY_M15 is an EA for 15-minute Euroyen. Generally, the logic to enter in the early morning of Japan time and escape with a small profit is called "Morning Scalp", but this EA has a built-in logic to enter in the early morning of Japan time and extend profits as much as possible. The execution time frame is the 15-minute time frame, but this is a swing-type EA that aims to ride the trend on the 1-hour time frame level and hold for several days. We used only two main indicators, moving average and RSI, and tried to keep the structure as simple as possible to avoid over-optimization from the programming stage. Because of its simple structure, it is highly reproducible and has a high likelihood of producing results similar to those of past charts.

EA dedicated to 15-minute EURJPY
K-Cody_EURJPY_M15 is an EA for 15-minute Euroyen only. It is not designed to operate with other currency pairs or time frames.
Swing-type trend-following EA
The holding period of a position is generally 1 to 5 days, so it belongs to the swing type EA. It is a swing type EA that follows the major trend and aims to gain as much profit as possible. The main indicators used are moving averages and RSI. The moving average confirms the trend, and the RSI measures the entry timing of the push or return.
Maximum number of positions: 3
In some cases, up to three positions may be held at the same time. This is not intended to be a "pick-and-pin" strategy, but rather an independent positioning based on the confirmation that the timing of entry matches the timing of the trade. The number of lots in each position is always the same, and the number of lots is not increased as the number of positions is increased, as in a martingale. And sometimes, we also double-file. So, if you have three positions, you may have three long positions, two long positions, and one short position, or one long position, two short positions, and three short positions.
Steady upward earnings curve over the past 13 years of back-testing.
The longer the period of back-testing, the more reliable it becomes. However, with the advent of AI (Artificial Intelligence), it is also true that the most recent results are more important. This EA has been back-tested for the past 13 years, and has been able to achieve a steady increase over that period, and has also been able to achieve a steady increase over the past several years since the rise of AI. The past 13 years also means that the EA has been profitable during the Lehman Shock in 2008, the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, and the Corona Shock in 2020 without any major drawdowns.
Easy parameter setting
This EA has as few parameters as possible so that even beginners can use it with ease. In other words, unnecessary parameters are made into internal variables, so there is no need for optimization work such as parameter adjustment. The minimum required parameters such as "magic number" and "number of lots" are all that is needed.
The EA has been back-tested for the past 13 years. Naturally, the modeling quality is 90.00% and the number of inconsistent chart errors is 0. Of particular importance are the following itemsred lineLet's check them. First of all, the [Spread] is set at [20]. Most people set a narrow value such as [5] or [10] here to make the backtest results look better. However, in the case of this EA, the superiority of the logic that does not depend on the [Spread] makes it possible to realize steadily rising profits even if the value is set this wide. [The net profit is more than 4 times larger than the initial margin, but the important thing here is the number of lots.
In extreme cases, recklessly increasing the number of lots can make the [net profit] appear fraudulently large, but the number of lots in this back test is fixed at 0.1. In other words, with a small enough number of lots, the [Net Profit] is more than 4 times the [Initial Margin]. In addition, the profit factor is as high as 1.59. There are few cases that have maintained such a high level of Profit Factor, even though the total number of trades has exceeded 2,200 times over the past 13 years. And [maximum drawdown] is the most important item. The stability of the EA can be estimated to some extent by how much this item is kept under control.
Each developer may have a different opinion on this item, but if I were to develop a non-numping EA, I would keep it to less than 250,000 yen or 25% of 1 million yen in margin. Of course, this number should be small, but in this EA, a low number of 6.51% has been achieved. Next, when we check the risk-return ratio, we find that [net profit] / [maximum drawdown] = 4321156.46 / 151663.51 = 28.5! Finally, please take a look at the profit graph. Since this EA is not a "pin-to-pin" type, the graph is not a straight line, as if a ruler was used to draw a neat line. While accepting moderate drawdowns, the graph shows a steady rise while drawing small waves.
■■■Parameters■■■■■■
[Magic]=20193002(Default value) Set a value different from other EAs. [Max_spread]=3.0(Default) Maximum spread. If it opens more than this, no entry will be made. [Slippage]=3(Default) Maximum slippage. If it slips more than this, do not enter. [Lots]=0.1 (default) The number of lots to enter. [Max_position]=3 (initial value) Maximum number of positions to be held at the same time. [TakeProfit]=390 (initial value) The profit margin (PIPS) at the limit price. [Yearend_stop]=true (initial value) Operation setting for the New Year's holiday. If this is true, no entry will be made from December 16 to January 5. [Free_comment]=Free comment (initial value) Free comment.
For fund management purposes, 0.1 lot per 1,000,000 yen of margin is the basic amount. For fund management purposes, the basic amount is 0.1 lot per 1,000,000 yen of margin. [Max_position] is limited to a maximum of 3 lots. It can be set as low as 2 or 1. Basically, these parameters do not need to be changed, but [Magic], [Lots], and [Max_position] can be changed according to your individual style.
■■■ Entry Status■■■■ Entry Status
Entry and settlement will be made as follows
blue lineis the entry and settlement of the long, andred lineis the short entry and close. The vertical white line is the New York close, and the time in between is one day. In most cases, positions are held for one or two days, but in rare cases, positions may be held for as long as five days. The stop width varies depending on the volatility of the market, but can be as little as 135 PIPS. The position may be closed in one of four ways: over a stop, over a limit, over a trailing stop, or according to the internal logic.
Q1: Can I operate with any broker? A1: Please operate with a forex company that operates on GMT+2 (GMT+3 in summer time). Domestic brokers include Rakuten Securities, Gaitame Finest, OANDA JAPAN, Golden Way Japan, and EZinvest Securities. Q2:Is it possible to carry over positions over the weekend? A2: In many cases, we hold positions for several days as swing trades, so we sometimes carry over positions to the following week. Q3: Is it necessary to set summer or winter time? A3: No, it is not necessary. Q4: Can I use one MT4 to run other EAs at the same time? A4: It is possible to operate simultaneously. However, if both this EA and another EA have unrealized losses while the margin is low, there is a possibility that they will be forced to close below the guarantee maintenance ratio. Q5:Can I close positions manually? A5: Yes, you can. However, if you have multiple positions and close only some of them, there is an undeniable possibility that they may not move properly afterwards.
Q6: Can I change the parameters? A6: Yes, you may change the parameters. However, if you change them in the direction of higher returns, please do so with caution after conducting back-testing. In particular, we recommend that you do not increase lot-related parameters more than necessary. Basically, [Lots] = 0.1 and [Max_position] = 3 for 1 million yen as per the parameters. There is no problem if you change the parameters in the direction of low return.

Just like discretionary trading, there are those that decide trading and settlement timings by combining indicators, those that repeatedly buy or sell at certain price (pips) intervals, and trading methods that utilize market anomalies or temporal features. The variety is as rich as the methods in discretionary trading.
To categorize simply,
・Scalping (Type where trades are completed within a few minutes to a few hours),
・Day Trading (Type where trades are completed within several hours to about a day),
・Swing Trading (Type where trades are conducted over a relatively long period of about 1 day to 1 week)
・Grid/Martingale Trading (Holding multiple positions at equal or unequal intervals and settling all once a profit is made. Those that gradually increase the lot number are called Martingale.)
・Anomaly EA (Mid-price trading, early morning scalping)
However, a substantial advantage of automated trading is its ability to limit and predict risks beforehand.
[Risk]
Inherent to forex trading are the trading risks that undeniably exist in automated trading as well.
・Lot Size Risk
Increasing the lot size forcibly due to a high winning rate can, in rare instances, depending on the EA, lead to substantial Pips loss when a loss occurs. It is crucial to verify the SL Pips and the number of positions held before operating with an appropriate lot.
・Rapid Market Fluctuation Risk
There are instances where market prices fluctuate rapidly due to index announcements or unforeseen news. System trading does not account for such unpredictable market movements, rendering it incapable of making decisions on whether to settle in advance or abstain from trading. As a countermeasure, utilizing tools that halt the EA based on indicator announcements or the VIX (fear index) is also possible.
[Benefits]
・Operates 24 hours a day
If there is an opportunity, system trading will execute trades on your behalf consistently. It proves to be an extremely convenient tool for those unable to allocate time to trading.
・Trades dispassionately without being swayed by emotions
There is an absence of self-serving rule modifications, a common human tendency, such as increasing the lot size after consecutive losses in discretionary trading or, conversely, hastily securing profits with minimal gains.
・Accessible for beginners
To engage in Forex trading, there is no prerequisite to study; anyone using system trading will achieve the same results.
[Disadvantages]
・Cannot increase trading frequency at will
Since system trading operates based on pre-programmed conditions, depending on the type of EA, it might only execute trades a few times a month.
・Suitability may vary with market conditions
Depending on the trading type of the EA, there are periods more suited to trend trading and periods more suited to contrarian trading, making consistent results across all periods unlikely. While the previous year might have yielded good results, this year's performance might not be as promising, necessitating some level of discretion in determining whether it is an opportune time to operate.
・MT4 (MetaTrader 4. An account needs to be opened with a Forex company that offers MT4.)
・EA (A program for automated trading)
・The operating deposit required to run the EA
・A PC that can run 24 hours or a VPS (Virtual Private Server), where a virtual PC is hosted on a cloud server to run MT4.
Additionally, there are both demo and real accounts available. You can experience trading with virtual money by applying for a demo account. After opening a real account, you select the connection server assigned by the Forex broker, enter the password, and log in to the account.
When you deposit money into your account using the method specified by the forex broker, the funds will be reflected in your MT4 account, and you can trade.
Firstly, download the purchased EA file from your My Page on GogoJungle. You will download a zip (compressed) file, so right-click to extract it and retrieve the file named ‘◯◯◯ (EA name)_A19GAw09 (any 8 alphanumeric characters).ex4’ from inside.
Next, launch MT4 and navigate to ‘File’ → ‘Open Data Folder’ → ‘MQL4’ → ‘Experts’ folder, and place the ex4 file inside. Once done, close MT4 and restart it. Then, go to the upper menu ‘Tools’ → ‘Options’, and under ‘Expert Advisors’, ensure ‘Allow automated trading’ and ‘Allow DLL imports’ are checked, then press OK to close.
The necessary currency pair and time frame for the correct operation of the EA are specified on the EA sales page. Refer to this information and open the chart of the correct currency pair time frame (e.g., USDJPY5M for a USD/Yen 5-minute chart).
Within the menu navigator, under ‘Expert Advisors’, you will find the EA file name you placed earlier. Click to select it, then drag & drop it directly onto the chart to load the EA. Alternatively, you can double-click the EA name to load it onto the selected chart.
If ‘Authentication Success’ appears in the upper left of the chart, the authentication has been successful. To operate the EA, you need to keep your PC running 24 hours. Therefore, either disable the automatic sleep function or host MT4 on a VPS and operate the EA.
If you want to use it with an account other than the authenticated one, you need to reset the registered account.
To reset the account, close the MT4 where the Web authentication is registered, then go to My Page on GogoJungle > Use > Digital Contents > the relevant EA > press the ‘Reset’ button for the registration number, and the registered account will be released.
When the account is in a reset state, using the EA with another MT4 account will register a new account.
Also, you can reset the account an unlimited number of times.
→ Items to Check When EA is Not Operating
1 lot = 100,000 currency units
0.1 lot = 10,000 currency units
0.01 lot = 1,000 currency units
For USD/JPY, 1 lot would mean holding 100,000 dollars.
The margin required to hold lots is determined by the leverage set by the Forex broker.
If the leverage is 25 times, the margin required to hold 10,000 currency units of USD/JPY would be:
10000*109 (※ at a rate of 109 yen per dollar) ÷ 25 = 43,600 yen.
・Risk-Return Ratio: Total Profit and Loss during the period ÷ Maximum Drawdown
・Maximum Drawdown: The largest unrealized loss during the operation period
・Maximum Position Number: This is the maximum number of positions that the EA can theoretically hold at the same time
・TP (Take Profit): The set profit-taking Pips (or specified amount, etc.) in the EA's settings
・SL (Stop Loss): The set maximum loss pips (or specified amount, etc.) in the EA's settings
・Trailing Stop: Instead of settling at a specified Pips, once a certain profit is made, the settlement SL is raised at a certain interval (towards the profit), maximizing the profit. It is a method of settlement.
・Risk-Reward Ratio (Payoff Ratio): Average Profit ÷ Average Loss
・Hedging: Holding both buy and sell positions simultaneously (Some FX companies also have types where hedging is not allowed)
