The 1√ forex rule is for beginners in computers and forex!
☆ Using the law of large numbers and the psychology of currency market participants, the trading rules boast an expected value plus win rate of more than 60%.
☆ Simple rules that use only one candlestick.
This 1√FX rule is suitable for computer and FX beginners who are "still unfamiliar with how to open charts" and for those who are "only sleeping 4 hours a day.
This 1√FX rule is also suitable for busy people who "can only sleep for 4 hours a day," or for those who "can only sleep for 4 hours a day." It does not require troublesome settings or practice, and provides clear trading timing to stabilize a win rate of 60% or more (profit margin and profit/loss margin are the same value). X trading rules.
A stable winning rate of 60% or more (profit margin and profit/loss margin are the same value) with clear trading timing means a continuous straight and upward trend of funds based on mathematical natural laws.
Since we use the law of large numbers, which is fundamental and unchanging, and the psychology of the participants in the foreign exchange market, we can be sure that the results will be consistent.
Therefore, it can be considered that the same high precision operation is possible not only on the basis of past verification results but also in the distant future.
First, please take a look at the results of EUR/USD as an example of the world's most heavily traded currency pair.
(Assuming a trading cost of 1 pip, these are the results from 2005, the earliest year for which accurate data exists, to the most recent)
■ Target Currency Pairs
EUR/USD, USD/JPY, EUR/JPY
Valid currency pairs
All major currency pairs
Although high performance can be obtained by targeting any currency pair, we target EUR/USD, USD/JPY, and EUR/JPY because concentrating funds in currency pairs with relatively low trading costs (spreads, etc.) can maximize performance.
■Time frame to be used
1-minute time frame
Valid time frames
All time frames
The 1√FX rule is valid for all time frames, including 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly time frames, as it utilizes the law of large numbers, which is a fundamental constant, the psychology of currency market participants, and exchange rate characteristics. However, due to the characteristics of the 1√ forex rule, we use the 1-minute leg, which maximizes trading opportunities, because increasing the number of trading opportunities leads to maximizing performance.
■ Technical Charts to be used ■
Candlesticks only
*On the chart screen, there is no need to display any technical charts other than candlesticks. Candlesticks contain not only the opening price, high, low, and closing price, but also various factors such as the movement and balance before and after them, the market environment and its changes, and the psychology of currency market participants, etc. Therefore, candlesticks alone are sufficient to achieve high performance.
■Profit margin (limit) ■
Fixed at 3 pips
Loss (Stop Loss)
Fixed at 3 pips
Number of positions held at the same time ■ 1
1 piece
The maximum number of positions held at the same time is basically one, since the limit and stop loss are fixed at 3 pips.
However, depending on the management style, there may be cases where the timing of buying and selling of several different currency pairs occurs at the same time, and in such cases, two positions may be held at the same time.
■Whether or not there is any nan-pinning, double-denomination, etc. ■
None at all
We do not use any methods that place the highest priority on the winning rate, such as the "Nanpin" method or the "Martingale" method, and we fix the limit/stop loss at 3 pips. Therefore, the maximum number of positions held is basically one buy position or one sell position.
Trading Style
Scalping (ultra-short-term trading)
Market Environment
All market environments
We are good at both trending and ranging markets, and we can handle large rallies and crashes.
In fact, we welcome large rallies and crashes, as they often lead to high volatility. Basically, we have a stable winning rate of 60% or more (the same value for profit margin and loss margin) in any market environment. The only caveat is when trading costs (spread, etc.) are abnormally increased by many times. In such cases, we recommend that you suspend trading, as performance may deteriorate. With automated trading, such anomalies are automatically avoided, so there is nothing to worry about.
Supported time zones
24 hours a day, 7 days a week
Available when important indicators are announced.
Available
*When important indicators such as the U.S. employment statistics and FOMC are announced, price movements tend to be large and risk is generally increased. However, the 1√FX rule fixes the loss margin narrowly and However, the 1√FX rule has a narrowly fixed loss margin, and even if slippage occurs, it can be said that the performance is even higher than usual when important indicators are announced because positions are often taken at the timing and in the direction that is most likely to occur in an advantageous direction.
■Recommended spread conditions ■
EUR/USD: 1.5 pips or less, USD/JPY: 1.5 pips or less, EUR/JPY: 2.0 pips or less
As with all investments, the lower the trading cost, the better the investment performance. The same is true for the 1√ forex rule. Spreads above the numbers shown above can still be used to a high degree of advantage, but only within these numbers to maximize performance. For reference, if you are in an environment where you can continue to trade with a spread of 0.5 pips or less, the 1√FX rule will give you a "win rate of 70% or more" instead of "win rate of 60% or more" under the same conditions.
■Trading Style
Both manual and automated trading are possible.
The logic is carefully disclosed and explained with illustrations and examples, and we will also provide you with a program file that enables automated trading, so you can execute either manual or automated trading according to your preference.
Supported FX firms ■
Basically no restrictions
The *1√FX rule uses only 1-minute candlesticks. Currently, most FX firms are able to display 1-minute candlesticks and also meet the recommended spread conditions, so there are basically no restrictions on FX firms. There are no restrictions.
(In the unlikely event that this is not met, this does not apply.)
However, since the MetaTrader 4 platform is used for automated trading, you must use a forex firm that offers a trading environment with MetaTrader 4 only if you want to trade automatically.
■ Platforms to be used ■
MetaTrader4 (For manual trading, basically all platforms can be used.)
*To perform automated trading, "MetaTrader4" is used. For manual trading, any platform is acceptable as long as "1-minute candlesticks can be displayed.
■Operation Funds ■
From 10,000 yen
Since the *1√FX rule basically requires a maximum holding of 1 unit, large financial resources are not necessary.
Currently, some FX firms allow trading in 1,000-currency units, so there is no problem with investment funds as low as 10,000 yen.

About Forex Automated Trading
What is Forex Automated Trading (MT4 EA)?
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.
Trading Types of Forex Automated Trading
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)

・Anomaly EA (Mid-price trading, early morning scalping)
Risks, Advantages, and Disadvantages of Forex Automated Trading
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.

Equipment and Environment Needed for Automated Trading Operation
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.

・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.
Installation of MT4 and Account Login
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.

How to Install EA on MT4
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.

In Case You Want to Change the Account in Use
EAs from GogoJungle can be used with one real account and one demo account per EA.

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.

About the Size of Trading Lots
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.
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.
