⛀Concept

Many trending markets have pullbacks, and entering at pullbacks is

one way to avoid buying at high prices while extending profits with positions that do not go against the trend.

This EA values this method and repeatedly executes pullback buying and retracement selling to a stubborn degree.


⛀About the Logic

By determining the direction from recent fluctuations, if there is a certain degree of rebound in the opposite direction, it enters in the trend-following direction at that point as a pullback.

Once a certain profit is achieved after entry, it will close the position temporarily and wait for another rebound, re-entering in the same direction if an opportunity arises.

If losses expand after entry, it corrects the direction and waits for a pullback to occur in the opposite direction, at which point it reverses (holding a position opposite to the previous one while closing the previous position).

This is the logic that will be repeated.

We would appreciate it if you could keep other detailed parts confidential.


⛀About Trading Hours

Positions are closed 20 minutes before the market closes on Fridays, year-end, and Christmas Eve, with restrictions to avoid holding positions overnight.

This function operates normally only with brokers using GMT+2/+3 (U.S. Daylight Saving Time).

Since it does not accommodate other exceptional holidays, if you do not wish to hold positions, you will need to close them manually.


⛀Operation During Economic Indicator Announcements

This EA does not perform special controls for economic indicator announcements and will trade based on the usual logic.

Significant profits or losses may occur due to indicators, but it has been developed with the idea that the expected value will balance out in the long term.

⛀Parameter Explanation

Except for settings related to lot size, the default settings are generally fine.

Parameter NameParameter DescriptionDefault Setting
Magic NumberA number used to identify the EA when running multiple EAs on one MetaTrader account. Please set it to avoid overlap with other EAs.8650001
Lot for Simple Interest OperationWhen the compound interest flag is "false", the value set here will be fixed for lots.0.1
Allowed Spread (1=0.1 Pips)You can set the allowable spread.20
Compound Interest Flag

Set to "true" for compound interest operation, and "false" if not.

If set to "true", the value set in "Lot for Simple Interest Operation" will be ignored, and lots will be calculated based on the following two parameters.

false
Reference Capital for Compound Interest Operation

When the compound interest flag is "true", you can choose to use either excess margin or account balance as the reference capital for compound interest operation.

Excess Margin
Reference Capital for Betting 0.1 Lot During Compound Interest Operation

When the compound interest flag is "true", this sets how much capital will be bet for every 0.1 Lot.

The lot size will increase according to the capital as shown in the image below, and compound interest will be applied.


Example 1: Setting Value 300000 (Default)

Capital 300000 ⊲ 0.10 Lot

Capital450000 ⊲ 0.15 Lot

Capital600000 ⊲ 0.20 Lot


Example 2: Setting Value 150000

Capital300000 ⊲ 0.200 Lot

Capital450000 ⊲ 0.300 Lot

Capital600000 ⊲ 0.400 Lot


Example 3: Setting Value 600000

Capital300000 ⊲ 0.05Lot

Capital450000 ⊲ 0.07Lot

Capital600000 ⊲ 0.10Lot


⅛If it cannot be divided by the broker's minimum lot size, it will be truncated.

300000
Maximum Retry Count for New OrdersLimits the number of retries for new orders that fail due to slippage, etc. If the number of failures exceeds the set value, it will give up on ordering until the next signal.30
Number of Past Bars to Check at StartupAt startup, the EA checks past bars to synchronize past conditions, and you can set the number of bars to check. This parameter is kept just in case, but generally, the default is fine.2000


Backtest Results(Default)(Currency Unit: Yen)


⅛This EA operates only on the opening price, except for order retries (which are difficult to reproduce in backtests), so it is tested on the "opening price only".


Other Notes

・This EA operates normally only when running on a one-minute chart.

・This EA is recommended for use with brokers using GMT+2/+3 (U.S. Daylight Saving Time).

・If you close and restart MT4, positions will not be automatically closed. If there are existing positions after restarting, the logic will resume as is.

・This EA supports manual closing of positions. After manual closing, it will enter as appropriate on the next signal. Please be aware that if the next signal is close, there is a possibility of re-entering immediately after closing.

・The operation of the EA may vary due to differences in distribution rates by broker and differences in execution environment (communication speed/processing speed, etc.).


⛀Q&A

・The modeling quality of the backtest image is shown as "n/a", does this mean it is unreliable?

This EA operates based on the opening price generation only, so it is backtested on "opening price only". However, due to MT4's specifications, when backtesting with "opening price only", it mechanically displays the modeling quality as "n/a".

Due to MT4's specifications, it is displayed as "n/a", but generally, there is not much impact when testing an EA that operates on "opening price only" in that manner, so please rest assured.

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)
