Only long-term hold wins! EURUSD

As one of your own portfolios, how about this?

HODL-only wins! EURUSD is an MT4-only EA designed to steadily accumulate fixed lot size on EURUSD.
It is not a explosive-growth type; it is a balanced design focused on ease of ongoing operation and ease of use.
It adds entries according to internal conditions, manages the overall on an average entry price base, and closes positions while watching the balance of the entire portfolio.
Rather than a strong expansion like Gold-type EAs, it is an EA that slowly builds up in EURUSD’s relatively calm price moves.

■ Backtest (2 years, 10,000 USD)

To make the basic nature of this product easy to understand, we present a 2-year backtest with an initial margin of 10,000 USD.
With tick-by-tick, 99.90% quality verification, it has stayed on a rising trajectory with relatively low drawdown.
This is not an overly aggressive design; it is the main test to give you a stable operation image.

■ Design Philosophy

This EA is not a martingale that doubles lots to recover quickly.
While assuming fixed lots, it adds entries according to market conditions and manages the whole with average entry price base.
Therefore, it is not a type that rapidly increases in a short time, but if you avoid extreme settings, it is relatively easy to handle and has a calm character as a currency-pair EA.

■ Logic

The logic is simple.

It picks up pullbacks or retracements of EURUSD and does basket closures based on the average entry price.

Closings are not variable; it is a fixed type that manages distance from average entry price in pips (with trailing).
Therefore, from the user’s perspective, it is quite easy to understand, and
it is easy to grasp “where the average entry price is now and where you must go to take profit.”

Additionally, on the chart, there are

• Average entry price line

• Take-profit line

• ALLCLEAR button

displayed,
so even those who want to apply a bit of discretion can use it easily.

Also, with additional entries, it does not indiscriminately pile up positions; when buying, it does not add above the average entry price; when selling, it does not add below the average entry price.
This reduces the chances of adding in a bad position near profit.

Unnecessary items are kept out of the table, with fine details fixed by internal logic.
Designed to be approachable even for beginners.

■ Input Items

To keep it as easy to use as possible, items are limited to the minimum necessary.
Because the finer logic is fixed internally, it is easy for beginners to adjust.

Magic Number

An identifier for each EA.
Used when running multiple EAs on the same account or running the same EA with different settings. It is generally fine as is, but if using with other EAs, please change it to a non-conflicting number.

Lot

The lot size used per entry.
The higher, the larger the profit, but the corresponding drawdown and potential losses also increase.
First, it is recommended to operate starting from0.01.

Maximum Positions

The maximum number of positions this EA can hold.
Increasing the number makes it easier to catch deeper reversals, but also increases the number of positions held.
Under standard operation, we recommend7.
If you are more cautious, around 5; even for aggressive settings, 10+ is for advanced users.

Start Time / End Time

The time window during which the EA can open new entries.
If you set 0–2359 it operates around the clock.
Adjust if you want it to run only in a specific time window.

Allowed Spread_pips

Setting to avoid entries when spread is too wide.
Normally, keep as is.
For accounts with wider spreads, you may loosen a bit.

Take Profit Target_pips

Roughly how many pips to target for taking profits from the average entry price.
This EA closes all positions based on the average entry price when multiple positions are held, so this value becomes the take-profit criterion.
In this test,5.0performed quite well.

Trailing Stop Enabled

Whether to extend profits after profits have risen to chase further gains.
true means trailing stop, false means fixed take profit.
Even if trailing stop is disabled, take profit is still executed as usual.

Trailing Start_pips

How many pips of profit must be reached before the trailing stop starts.
Usually the same value as the take-profit target in pips.

Trailing Capture Rate

What portion of profit to leave when winding down after trailing starts.
Higher means securing profits earlier; lower means staying longer in the trade.
Generallyaround 0.6is easy to handle.

Trailing Minimum Capture_pips

The minimum profit width to secure during trailing.
This prevents early closure during pullbacks.

Quality Entry Interval_pips

The threshold interval for adding a second position.
This EA can automatically widen the averaging width, and this value is the base width for that.
Smaller makes additions earlier; larger makes cautious additions.

Use Additional Width Expansion

true will widen the addition interval as the number of steps increases.
This helps prevent rushing to add later positions.
In this EA,true is recommended.

Addition Width Expansion Multiplier

Setting for how much to widen the addition interval.
1.0 means fixed; around 1.1–1.35 allows more cautious later positions.
The default vicinity is a very balanced setting.

Addition Interval Upper Bound_pips

Upper limit to prevent addition width from getting too wide.
Set to 0 for no limit.
By entering a value, you can prevent the EA from waiting too long.

New Entry Stop_JPY

When the overall account profit/loss deteriorates beyond a fixed amount, stop new entries; 0 disables.
0 disables.
Usually operate at 0 and use as a safety device as needed.

Close All_JPY

When overall account P/L deteriorates beyond a fixed amount, close all positions; 0 disables.
0 disables.
A very strong safety device, so normally leaving it at 0 is fine.

Currency Stop Loss_JPY

For each currency pair, stop loss when a certain loss amount is reached.
0 disables.
Also a protective option you may use as needed.

■ Settings

Basically, first consider

• Lot

• Maximum Position

• Take Profit Target_pips

Focusing on these three is recommended.

What is particularly important isMaximum Position and the concept of added width,
as this EA gains easier take-profit on average-entry price as positions increase,
but pushing too hard can also extend holding time.

Therefore, by default we set
Maximum positions around 7 with add-width expansion
.

■ Recommended Environment

・Platform: MetaTrader4
・Recommended Currency Pair: EURUSD
・Recommended Timeframe: M5
・Recommended Maximum Positions: 7
・Fixed lot assumption
・We recommend starting with default or recommended settings

■ Reference Verification (1,000 USD)

As a reference, we also present a 2-year verification under the same conditions with an initial margin of 1,000 USD.
The drawdown ratio is larger, but it does not fail and completes under small capital conditions, illustrating the EA’s resilience.
However, in actual operation, considering drawdown, we recommend operating with adequate margin.

The following shows results after changing the maximum position count over one year.

■ Who this EA is suitable for

・Those who value ongoing operation over explosiveness
・Those looking for a relatively easy-to-use EA with fixed lots
・Those who want a currency-pair EA that is different from Gold-style EAs
・Those who want to accumulate patiently with EURUSD

■ Cautions

・Backtests and actual operations may yield different results due to spreads, slippage, and execution
・Holding time may become longer depending on market conditions
・Because it is designed to add entries, operate with ample margin
・High-lot operation or excessive setting changes may lead to results different from the intended design
・Final operational decisions are up to you
