Forward data being measured
The forward data measurement period will end.
We are pleased to announce the official start of sales.
*Logic changes have been made since July 27, 2022.
Please note that before July 27, 2022, the old logic will be used for purchase.
Automata Click here for the free backtest version.
We will change the price to 24800 yen at the same time as the release of the back-test version.
If there are no problems, you will be able to try the back-test version in the near future.
Development Concept
Automata is a system trade developed by focusing on the frequency and profitability of trending and ranging markets.
We trade based on the theory that the nature of rates is volatility, i.e., rates will always move
Features of Automata
Biggest feature
Automata is only supported by domestic brokers due to its high-frequency trading
Spread tolerance is designed with a maximum of 0.5 pips
*Please note that overseas brokers will certainly reduce your funds!
Recommended trading is on OANDA Japan Tokyo server (0.4 pips to 0.8 pips )) FXFT(about 0.3 pips to 0.8 pips))will be
Basically, we are developing on the assumption that these two companies will be used
Currently, Gaitame Finest is used for forward testing (due to the unavailability of forwards on OANDA Japan's Tokyo server at GogoJungle).
Number of trades
This will be a trend-based system trade with high frequency trading in mind (daily/approx. 3 trades)
The number of transactions in the back test over 10 years is 8220
New logic effective July 28, 2022
The number of trades has decreased due to the installation of filters (about 2.5 trades/day)
The number of transactions over 10 years in the back test will be about 6300
Trade Logic
We monitor medium- to long-term trend markets, and if the market has momentum, we will aggressively enter the market and greedily aim for profit margins.
It makes grueling entries even in a range market, which is the weak point of trend-based EAs, but by aiming for large profit margins, it increases relative assets!
By accepting losing trades honestly, the logic eliminates curve fitting
The frequency of trades is high, but there is only one logic and it is highly reproducible!
Time to hold position
such as early morning spreads and swaps.Highly reproducible EA that eliminates uncertainties in system trading We aimed for
All trades are completed in 1Day to avoid the impact of swap rates and early morning spreads ( Japan time: Summer 08:00 - 00:00 next day, Winter 09:00 - 01:00 next day limited trades).
Weekend positions
It is completed in 1Day, so there is no need to carry over positions to the weekend
securement of profits
Automata is settled by an internal logic to increase profits in line with market conditions.
There is no maximum amount of profit secured, so if you hold until the settlement timeActual blue ceiling if it is held until the time of settlement.
cutting one's losses
The maximum stop loss for Automata is 20 pips
development environment
Automata's development environment currently uses TDS
The development will use Dukascopy Japan's tick data

Please do not lower the maximum number of bars in the chart history from the default value of 2147483647.
Extremely low chart display for the purpose of reducing the load on the VPS server may affect entries
The default settings can be used for domestic low spread providers.
*Compound interest function, but Automata's win rate is about 30%.
To be honest, compound interest is not a good match, so please consider setting compound interest only after verifying it in a back test.

Notes on Automata Operation
From MT4, Tools -> Options -> Charts Please do not lower the maximum number of bars in the history from the default of 2147483647.
(If the chart display is kept extremely low for the purpose of reducing the load on the VPS server, entries may be affected.)
Please set the start of operation (set to the Niko-chan mark) between 01:00 and 08:00 Japan time.
(because of possible differences with the official forwards)
If you are making discretionary trades, please stop the automated trading before closing and do not resume operations for the day.

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)
