Looking for an EA that can be safely left unattended 

As my style as a discretionary trader is systematic, I have been experimenting to see if it can be automated.

If it is to be automated, the key to complete neglect might be a unique selfishness of discretionary traders.

If I have to be in front of the chart at a specified time,"I might as well do it myself faster."I tend to think.

Taking that into account, I somehow incorporated the logic and settlement to allow for unattended operation.

That said, automated trading tends to become monotonous in environmental recognition, so I have designed it to operate safely by entering from relatively high risk-reward positions without taking risks during normal times.

Having been a discretionary trader myself, I believe that"the absence of discretion, such as stopping operation during indicators or year-end and New Year, is the essence of the EA."Therefore, I basically assume unattended operation.

  

Low-risk operation during normal times

I expect an annual return of about 10%. (When operating with 1 million yen, 10,000 currency/ capital efficiency of 1%.)

Since I carefully select entries from positions with high risk-reward, the number of entries will be relatively low (around 150 times a year).

While winning and losing, I will engage in trading that gradually increases capital.



Reasons for capital increase despite winning and losing

The reason capital increases despite winning and losing is"the relationship between win rate and risk-reward.".

The diagram below is an excerpt from a backtest over the past five years,"with a win rate of 46.36% and a risk-reward of about 1.5:1.".

Therefore, the expected value per trade is high, and in contrast to the "slow and steady" approach, capital will gradually increase.



Following trends like sharks devouring

The main feature of Wisteria Shark is that during trend occurrences, it continuously enters while taking small profits, as if devouring.

It is possible to take everything in one shot, but the reason for taking small profits is to make it easier to leave profits even when there is a sharp reversal.

(Depending on market conditions, it may not activate at the start of the trend and may enter midway through the trend.)



Response to the current market

Since the market environment has changed significantly since 2025, I have"slightly optimized the parameters for the current market.".

It has been confirmed that it can operate without issues in backtests over the past ten years, so please check the new backtest for details.


High recovery factor

Finally, a feature of Wisteria Shark is its high recovery factor.

The recovery factor refers to"the recovery power (ryoku) until returning to the original after experiencing a drawdown.".

EA will inevitably experience drawdown periods.

However, if the recovery factor is high, the speed of capital recovery after a drawdown is fast, reducing the anxiety that makes one want to stop operation.

The recovery factor of Wisteria Shark over the past five years is"1.42.", and it can be seen from the test results that it has recovered in about six months even after a drawdown.



Time control for the cautious

Even with a safe design, there are times when one does not want to enter during the week or from NY close to Tokyo, so I have equipped the parameters with time control for the cautious.

Please set the entry time settings, NG time settings, and weekend forced settlement according to your preferences.

In the initial settings, it is set to NG for entry between 6 AM and 7 AM Japan time, as this period often results in a range with significantly poor win rates.


Regarding pricing

Due to the revision of the sales rate by GogoJungle, we have raised the prices of all products. Thank you for your understanding.


Regarding parameters

I will explain the parameters that can be set.



▀ Magic Number: Please enter your preferred number. However, please ensure it does not overlap with other EAs.

▁ Lot Size: You can enter your preferred lot. Please be careful not to over-leverage.

▂ Enter the width of the SL that will be set automatically at the time of entry. It rarely gets triggered, but it is set to 200 pips as an initial value as a countermeasure for gap openings.

▃ Enter the pips for taking profit when the price is reached. Based on the trend of Euro-Yen over the past five years, the initial value is set to 120.

▄ Enter the pips for cutting losses when the price is reached. Based on the trend of Euro-Yen over the past five years, the initial value is set to 70.

▅ Set the maximum spread width for trading. This will control to avoid entry when the spread widens during indicators, so please set it to about 1.5 to 2 times the average spread of your broker.

▆ Enter the pips of unrealized profit at which the trailing stop will activate. Based on the trend of Euro-Yen over the past five years, the initial value is set to 70. If you do not use it, please enter a large number like 10000.

▇ Enter the pips to raise the SL when the trailing stop activates. Based on the trend of Euro-Yen over the past five years, the initial value is set to 30.

█ Please enter the GMT of your broker. If not entered correctly, it may cause time control to not function properly.

▉ Set the daylight saving time. Please set it according to your broker's daylight saving time transition period.

▊ Set the start time for allowing entries. Please enter in 24-hour format.

▋ Set the end time for allowing entries. Please enter in 24-hour format.

▌ Set the start time for not allowing entries. Please enter in 24-hour format.

▍ Set the end time for not allowing entries. Please enter in 24-hour format.

▎ Set the days of the week when entries are not allowed. Please enter the corresponding number for the day of the week.

▏ Set this if you do not want to hold positions over the weekend. Choose "true" for forced settlement, or "false" if not used.

▐ Set the time for forced position settlement over the weekend. Please enter in 24-hour format.

Regarding settings 3.4.5.7.8, the release of parameters has been discontinued. Please understand and use accordingly.


Notes

⅛ This EA does not guarantee profits. Please understand that there may be losses exceeding past tests depending on future market conditions.

⅛ Backtests are conducted with a fixed spread of 2.5 pips. There is a risk of significantly poor performance with spreads above this.

⅛ Other than the lot, the parameter values are recommended settings. Please conduct performance evaluations after changing settings at your own responsibility.

About Forex Automated Trading
Forex Automated Trading refers to trading that is automated through programming, incorporating predetermined trading and settlement rules. There are various methods to conduct automated trading, but at GogoJungle, we deal with Experts Advisors (hereinafter referred to as EA) that operate on a trading platform called MT4.
There are various types of EAs (Expert Advisors) for different trading types that can be used on MT4.
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)

When engaging in Forex, there are risks in automated trading just as there are in discretionary trading.
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.
The requirements for operating automated trading (EA) on MT4 are as follows:
・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.
If you open an account with a forex broker that supports MT4, you can use MT4 as provided by that forex broker. MT4 is a stand-alone type of software that needs to be installed on your computer, so you download the program file from the website of the FX company where you opened the account and install it on your computer.

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.
To set up an EA when you purchase it through GogoJungle, follow the steps below:
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.
EAs from GogoJungle can be used with one real account and one demo account per 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.
If you encounter an error with Web authentication, or if the EA is trading on GogoJungle's forward performance page but not on your own account, there could be various reasons. For more details, please refer to the following link:
 → Items to Check When EA is Not Operating
In Forex trading, the size of a lot is usually:

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.
・Profit Factor: Total Profit ÷ Total Loss
・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)
