【One EA for a Future Value of 10 or More in the Future】
“Extreme selective entry” × “Multiple currency pairs” create the ultimate portfolio strategy
“If you increase safety for entries, you reduce trading frequency and may not earn….” Lotus completely solves this dilemma with【up to 10+ currency pairs sequentially supported】!
For each currency pair, we select the “safe point” and keep ultra-low risk. Even if one currency pair becomes scarce in opportunities, multiple currency pairs cover for each other, enabling both safety and profit speed.
★ This is important ★
Future updates will include all 20 currency pairs at no additional charge (free).
【Evolutionary EA Project】
Lotus 1.01 - The culmination of multi-currency operation strategies → to 1.04 in mid-May, to 1.05 by end of June
“Like a lotus blooming beautifully from the turbulent market”
Carrying forward genes from previous logic (Tengu, Phoenix), with a geometry-based averaging step-down to achieve lower drawdown and higher durability.
First, start with AUDJPY, and with each update more currency pairs will be added for free as the project grows.
💎 Lotus Strengths and Features
1. Ironclad defense with “Geometric Grid Averaging”
This challenges the notion that averaging EA is scary. Rather than uniform steps, we use a calculation logic that widens the order interval as the market reverses.
Conventional EA: takes many positions during reversals, quickly exhausting funds.
Lotus: expands distance like “30pips → 60pips → 120pips…” as danger grows.
Result: avoids catching falling knives and waits for bottom reversals. In 13 years of volatile markets (Abenomics, Covid shock, etc.), maximum number of average-ups is only 9–10 times.
2. Design with lower drawdown than previous versions
Building on the experiences of the past favorites“Tengu”“Phoenix”, we further tighten risk management.
Despite being a grid-averaging EA, it achieves minimal maximum drawdown and can operate starting from a realistic fund of around 300,000 yen (about $2,000).
🛡️ Three safety features to protect your funds
Lotus ships with professional-grade safety devices developed from years of experience.
① Margin Safety Guard
If the market moves beyond expectations and margin maintenance falls to dangerous levels, automatic new orders are stopped (skipped).
Prevents forced escalation to losses and significantly improves account survival rate.
② Spread Filter
Avoids entries when spreads widen during early morning or major news releases. Filters to trade only in clean market conditions with high win rate.
③ Smart Compounding (Auto Money Management)
※Different from typical compounding.
Lowers or raises lot size automatically in proportion to funds, but applies a brake during danger.
【Important: Behavior of the compounding feature】
If unrealized equity decreases due to losses, the EA automatically reduces the next averaging lot to mitigate risk.
Merit:Limits capital drawdown, significantly extending tolerance before a drawdown reaches the stop-out level.
Behavior note:Even if the lot size becomes smaller, the logic of “average entry price + configured pips” for exit does not change (negative settlements are not executed).
However, smaller lots mean the average entry price tends to drop, leading to a longer wait for significant market reversion.
This design prioritizes safety over quick profit realization.
📊 Two operation modes you can choose from with your strategy
Unlike typical EAs, Lotus is designed to shine on longer timeframes (5 minutes). By adjusting chart timeframes to fit your capital and goals, you can switch modes.
【Classic 5-min (M5) - Maximize profits, Active mode】
Feature: Relatively high profit rate and trading frequency. Lotus’s main engine.
Logic: Targets the deviation from large trends over the past 3 hours, repeatedly catching pullbacks and retracements to generate profits. (Maximum number of averaging in past 16 years: 9 times for AUDJPY)
Recommended for: Those who want to maximize capital efficiency and earn substantially as a primary income source.
【Rock-solid 1-minute (M1) - Crisis avoidance, ultra-select mode】
Feature: Ultra-low risk by narrowing entries to the extreme.
Logic: Pinpoints rebounds from abnormal events like sudden spikes or falls. Usually stays dormant, reducing trade count, but in AUDJPY backtest over 16 years the maximum number of averaging is only 6 times, demonstrating exceptional safety.
Recommended for: Those who prioritize safety and want to avoid drawdowns.

⚙️ Parameter settings guide
Basically, you only need to set the “initial lot” and can run with default values.
⚠️ About investment risks (Disclaimer)
This EA has shown high stability in long-term backtests over 15+ years, but there is no such thing as “absolute” or “100%” in investing.
Please understand the following points and operate at your own judgment and responsibility.
Operate with surplus funds: Do not use living funds; use funds you can afford to lose without affecting your living.
Past performance: Backtests and forward tests are historical and do not guarantee future profits.
Risk management: No matter how excellent a system is, losses can occur due to sudden market moves. Be careful with lot management.
📅 Message from the development team
The Lotus (Hoa Sen) project is not just selling a tool.
We aim for users to build portfolios of 15–20 currency pairs in the future, diversify risk, and grow wealth. We want to be a partner on that long journey.
First, experience Lotus’s “defensive strength” with AUDJPY, which has the most solid track record.
Then look forward to the next free update (new currency pairs) and use them to craft your own strongest portfolio.
💎 Lotus (Lotus) Geometric Averaging Deep Dive
■ 【Diagram】 Why doesn’t it go bankrupt? Secrets of “Lotus-style Geometric Averaging”
Reason standard averaging EAs go bankrupt in market shocks is that they hold many positions at equal intervals (e.g., every 20 pips), causing excessive risk.
Lotus uses a unique geometric logic: as danger grows, it enlarges the distance to the next order (to run away).
Please see the simulation table below.
※ This is the optimized setting for the first phase: AUDJPY (5-minute chart).
📊 Averaging Progress Simulation (AUDJPY, M5)
【Settings: distance 2.0x / lot 1.6x / starting 0.01 lot】
💡 This is the key point to “protecting your funds”!
① “Distance” expands widely, while growth of “lot size” remains mild
In AUDJPY settings, the distance to next order expands from 30→60→120 pips, doubling each time.
However, the lot size is not doubled all at once, but kept at a mild 1.6x multiplier.
This results in an ideal contrarian trading approach: during sharp declines, you skip most positions and place moderate lots near the bottom to anticipate a rebound.
② Even a huge crash (around 5 yen) can be handled calmly
For example, if a historical crash of 4 yen (400 pips) occurs within hours:
General EA: keeps averaging every 20 pips and ends up with 20 positions, leading to instant account bankruptcy.
Lotus: as shown in the table, even a 400 pips drop results in only 4 positions. The damage to funds is minimized, and when the market stabilizes and rebounds a bit, profits are quickly realized.
⚠️ 【Important】 Each currency pair will be fully optimized
The “distance 2.0x and lot 1.6x” values above are the result of analyzing AUDJPY’s past market behavior to identify the safest and most profitable solution. This is not fixed across all currency pairs.
When adding currencies like EURUSD via updates, applying the same settings can be very dangerous due to differing volatility.
For each newly added currency pair, Lotus will conduct backtests of over 10 years and embed the most suitable parameters (distance, lot multiplier, etc.) into the internal logic before release.
All you need to do is set the EA on the chart. The development team will handle complex parameter tuning to provide the best portfolio at all times.
💡 Important advice from the developer: The right strategy to double profits
When you want higher profits from the EA, many people choose to increase the initial lot (e.g., 0.01 → 0.05). In the Lotus project, we strongly recommend a different approach:
❌ NG Strategy:Increase the lot size for a single currency pair If you raise the initial lot too much, when the market moves against you, the EA’s internal safety limiter and the account margin limit will be hit quickly. This prevents Lotus from utilizing its strongest weapon—geometric averaging—for its full durability, increasing the risk of account bankruptcy.
⭕ Correct Strategy:Keep the lot size minimal and diversify across multiple currencies Keep the initial lot around 0.01–0.02, and run AUDJPY, EURUSD, and other currency pairs in parallel for safer and smarter operation.
🛡️ Diversification of risk (defense up):The probability that all currency pairs crash in the same direction at the same time is extremely low. While one pair endures unrealized losses, others steadily generate profits to support margin maintenance.
⚔️ Multiplying profit opportunities (attack power up):Without aggressive lot increases, having 2–3 currency pairs in operation simply doubles entry opportunities. As a result, you can significantly increase overall profits while maintaining low risk. This is the core reason Lotus is designed as a “multi-currency project.” Start safely with AUDJPY to feel the security, and use the free updates to add currency pairs to complete your own strongest portfolio!
【 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 】
Q1. What margin and leverage are recommended?
A.Recommended margin depends on future added pairs, but 300,000 JPY (about $2,000) per 0.01 Lot.
Due to the averaging EA characteristics, it is strongly recommended to keep a margin buffer.
Leverage: includes margin protection features. If leverage is low, required margin increases and may prevent optimal performance.
Q2. Is it okay to run 1-minute (M1) and 5-minute (M5) simultaneously?
A.Yes, it is possible. However, monitor risk management carefully.
Running both timeframes simultaneously may lead to positions in both. In that case, please note the required margin.
For capital efficiency, it is recommended to start with one timeframe first.
Q3. Are there stop-loss settings?
A.There is no fixed Pips-based stop-loss, but the “Margin Safety Guard” serves that purpose.
If the market reverses drastically and the maintenance margin becomes dangerous, the EA stops further averaging to prevent deeper losses.
It is designed to prevent “stop-loss poverty” while applying brakes just before account ruin.
Q4. Should trading stop during major news or year-end holidays?
A.Essentially, with the built-in Spread Filter, entries around news indicators are automatically avoided.
However, during events like the jobs report, FOMC, conflicts, or periods of extremely low liquidity around year-end or holidays, you may consider stopping AutoTrading as a precaution, though the default design is to operate normally.
Q5. Will future currency pairs be paid?
A.No. If you purchase Lotus once, you can receive updates for free (no additional charges).
However, the base price of Lotus may increase with each new currency pair added, so early purchasers benefit more overall.
Q6. Is it okay to manually close positions when unrealized losses exist?
A.Yes, it is possible.
If you decide profits are sufficient or prefer not to continue, you can manually close all positions. After manual closure, the EA will automatically resume seeking the next opportunity (MT5 requires no restart).
Q7. If the compounding has been turned on but the lot size becomes small, is that a bug?
A.No. It indicates the safety mechanism is functioning normally.
Lotus’ compounding reduces next order lot when unrealized losses reduce effective equity to limit risk.
It switches from aggressive to defensive mode automatically, so wait for market recovery.
Q8. Backtests show no bankruptcy, but will it never bankrupt on real accounts?
A.There is no such thing as absolute safety in investing.
Lotus is designed to avoid bankruptcy in past 15+ years of volatile markets, but the future market could exceed the past maximum fluctuation. Use surplus funds and withdraw profits regularly to manage risk.
Q9. The hat icon on the top-right is blue (operating) but there is no entry.
A.Lotus is selective about entries. In M1 mode, it uses a long trend filter, so entries may occur only after hours to days if conditions are met.
Also, if the spread exceeds the set value (initially 30), entries are skipped. It’s not a malfunction; please wait patiently.
Q10. Is there an MT4 version?
A.Currently, only MT5 version is available.
This is because MT5 can achieve higher fast execution speeds and handle complex processing to prevent partial position remnants.
Thank you for understanding as we provide a safer and more comfortable trading environment.

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)
