About EA's Strategy
Translating...
Alice Shinya is an EA system that trades based on a certain anomaly related to the London fix (London mid-price) around 1 AM and the Tokyo mid-price at 9:55 AM, as well as the swap allocation during rollover (overnight carry).
This FX EA system trades during the late-night hours from 1 AM to 9:53 AM, hence it is named 【Alice Shinya】.
Alice Shinya is,a single-position EA that holds only one trade at a time!!
Therefore, it is an EA that makes it easy to manage funds such as margin and loss management.
About the specifications of Alice Shinya
ThisFX EA【Alice Shinya】trades based on the anomaly present at the London fix and Tokyo mid-price during rollover.
Specifically, it conducts FX trades between 1:01 AM and 9:53 AM based on the anomaly. This EA also performs rollover (carrying over to the next business day),so it can also earn swap points.Thus, it is believed to be a valid EA until the Bank of Japan raises interest rates or the Euro lowers rates, narrowing the interest rate differential.
The currency pairs traded are Euro/Yen or Pound/Yen.
The number of positions isa single position,and it does not hold multiple positions.
This EA can be operated with either simple interest or compound interest, but backtesting for compound interest shows that an investment of 150,000 yen can grow to 595 million yen over 10 years, making it a very interesting EA.
About Compound Interest Operation
Compound interest operation involves calculating how much risk to take based on the amount of capital each time.(Simple interest operation fixes the lot size for trading.)
For example, if you take a risk of 3% with a capital of 150,000 yen, that would be 4,500 yen, and if the capital increases to 1 million yen, it would be 30,000 yen, and you would adjust the lot size accordingly to ensure that amount is the stop-loss.
ThisEA has this compound function, automatically calculating the lot size based on the amount of capital, stop-loss width (pips), and risk ratio.In other words, as profits are secured and capital increases, the lot size will also increase.
In this EA, the compound interest operation is set tothe default setting of "false (off)", and if you change it to "true (on)", set the stop-loss width to a pips width dedicated to compound interest, and determine the risk ratio percentage, it will operate automatically with compound interest.
Backtest Information (Euro/Yen (Compound Interest Operation))
The image below shows the backtest results of this EA Alice Shinya with EUR/JPY set to compound interest with a stop-loss width of "45 pips" and a risk ratio of "5%" over the past 10 years (from 2014/06/01 to 2024/06/30). (Detailed methods for compound interest settings are explained in the instruction manual.)
Data Notes: The backtest on MT5 has better accuracy, so this is the backtest data conducted on the MT5 version. The historical raw data is from FXTF.
Looking at it,an investment of 150,000 yen can grow to 595 million yen over 10 years, resulting in significant profits!
The profit factor is 1.50, and the recovery factor is 16.64, yielding very good results.
This EA can start operating with just one position, even from 150,000 yen (the calculation formula is noted in the backtest).
(However, this is merely past data, and future results may not necessarily reflect this. It is recommended to operate with money that can be lost without affecting your surplus funds.)
This is the effect of compound interest, where as profits accumulate, the lot size also increases, potentially bringing such large profits.
Backtest Information (Pound/Yen (Compound Interest Operation))
Next, this EA Alice Shinya was set to GBP/JPY with compound interest set to "on (true)", a stop-loss width of "65 pips", and a risk ratio of "5%" for the past 10 years (from 2014/01/01 to 2023/12/31). Here are the backtest results. (Detailed methods for compound interest settings are explained in the instruction manual.)
Data Notes: The backtest on MT5 has better accuracy, so this is the backtest data conducted on the MT5 version. The historical raw data is from FXTF. version. The historical raw data is from FXTF.
Looking at this,an investment of 150,000 yen can grow to about 300 million yen over 10 years, resulting in significant profits!
The profit factor is 1.34, and the recovery factor is 5.56, which is a very good result, although it is inferior to the compound interest operation of EUR/JPY.
This is the effect of compound interest, where as profits accumulate, the lot size also increases, potentially bringing such large profits.
Personally, I think this EA should be operated with simple interest or compound interest on EUR/JPY, and once there is some leeway, it would be good to try operating with Pound/Yen as well. (Please invest at your own risk.)
Backtest Information (Euro/Yen (Simple Interest Operation))
Next, I will also include the backtest for simple interest operation. The image below shows the backtest results for EUR/JPY with the basic settings for simple interest over the past 10 years (from 2014/01/01 to 2023/12/31). Here are the backtest results..
Data Notes: The backtest on MT5 has better accuracy, so this is the backtest data conducted on the MT5 version. The historical raw data is from FXTF. version. The historical raw data is from FXTF.
The total profit over 10 years is 1,063,769 yen. The profit factor is 1.51. The recovery factor is 14.61. The maximum drawdown is -72,820 yen, resulting in good results.
The minimum required capital for backtesting with a 10,000 currency trade is approximately 150,000 yen, so the average annual interest rate in backtesting is about 70% equivalent.
Calculation Formula: The margin for 10,000 currency of EUR/JPY is calculated based on the Euro/Yen rate of 175 yen, so the required margin = 70,000 yen.
In FX, in addition to the required margin, the amount of loss that can be tolerated is necessary, so adding the maximum drawdown of 72,820 yen gives approximately 142,820 yen as the minimum required capital in backtesting.
If we take this minimum required capital as approximately 150,000 yen and divide the average annual profit of 106,376 yen from the 10-year earnings in backtesting, the average annual interest rate of this EA is about 70.9% equivalent.
Caution!: This calculation is based solely on backtesting data, and future Euro/Yen rates and maximum drawdowns may change. It is advisable to operate with sufficient funds.
Backtest Information (Pound/Yen (Simple Interest Operation))
Here is the 10-year backtest for GBPJPY under simple interest operation. (2014/01/01 to 2023/12/31) Here are the backtest results for 10 years of operation.
The total profit over 10 years is 1,246,555 yen. The profit factor is 1.42. The recovery factor is 21.06. The maximum drawdown is -59,188 yen, resulting in good results.
The minimum required capital for backtesting with a 10,000 currency trade is approximately 150,000 yen, so the average annual interest rate in backtesting is about 70% equivalent.
The margin for 10,000 currency of GBP/JPY is calculated based on the Pound/Yen rate of 205 205 yen, so the required margin = 82,000 yen.
In FX, in addition to the required margin, the amount of loss that can be tolerated is necessary, so adding the maximum drawdown of 59,188 yen gives approximately 141,188 yen as the minimum required capital in backtesting.
If we take this minimum required capital as approximately 150,000 yen and divide the average annual profit of 124,655 yen from the 10-year earnings in backtesting, the average annual interest rate of this EA is about 83% equivalent.
Caution!: This calculation is based solely on backtesting data, and future Euro/Yen rates and maximum drawdowns may change. It is advisable to operate with sufficient funds.
Thus, Alice Shinya is an EA for automated FX trading that has the potential to generate profits with both simple and compound interest.
Additionally, since the trading hours are during late-night periods with few economic indicators or significant statements, it only trades during times that are less influenced by fundamental factors.In backtesting, there are few EAs that can turn 150,000 yen into 500 million yen, and it is quite promising for a single-position EA that does not use averaging down or martingale strategies. I believe it has great potential.Thank you for considering your purchase!

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)
