About EA's Strategy
Translating...
■ Judgement materials are only a watch and a calendar
GBPJPY Anomaly v04uses absolutely no indicators.
No moving averages, RSI, or Bollinger Bands are stacked.
What this EA watches is “what day of the week it is today and the current time”—that’s all.
In the currency market, there are price-m ändering tendencies that recur regardless of market sentiment.
Underlying demand flows toward Tokyo fix. Forty-ninth-day settlement demand. Month-end rebalancing. Monday open.
These are not predictions of whether the market will go up or down,they are structural biases born from the schedules of people and organizations participating in the market.
This EA cuts out time bands where these biases are observed into 5-minute grid cells and only fires at the statistical survivors110 cells.
■ Ten-year actual performance
Measured values from MetaTrader 4 Strategy Tester (All ticks / 0 misalignment).
All figures are after deducting all trading fees.

【Testing environment】
AxioryAsia-02 Demo (Build 1471) / GBPJPY 1-minute chart / 2016.01.04 – 2025.12.30 (about 10 years)
All ticks (Modeling quality 25.00%)/ Misalignment chart error0/ Test bars 3,719,556
Initial margin 10,000 / Spread 10 (1.0 pip) / 0.05 lots fixed
■ We’ll write out the entire logic
We do not claim “it is a black box.” Here is all of this EA.
| Item | Content |
| Entry | Market order immediately after the confirmed 1-minute cell |
| Exit | Take profit / Stop loss / Maximum holding time reached |
| Take profit / Stop loss width | Fixed per cell (7 / 10 / 15 / 20 pips) |
| Maximum holding time | Fixed per cell (30 minutes or 120 minutes) |
| Concurrent holdings | Only 1 position |
| Re-entry restriction | Do not fire for 60 minutes after exit |
| Grid/Martingale | None |
| Indicators used | None |
| Expected trade frequency | About 300 per year |
【110-cell breakdown】
Mon 1 o’clock hour (buy) 12 cells — right after weekly open
Tue–Fri 0 o’clock hour (sell) 48 cells — early in each trading day
Tue 1–2 o’clock / Wed 1 o’clock (buy) 18 cells — Asia session start
Gotō-day 0–2 o’clock (buy/sell) 29 cells — settlement demand of the 50-day
End-of-month Friday 5 o’clock / 20th 17 o’clock / 10th 13 o’clock 3 cells
■ To avoid curve fitting
Parameters for each cell are determined byforward testing (walk-forward).
Using only the most recent 3 years of data for each cell’s optimal combination, then testing the next year, then shifting by one year and repeating
This is repeated for 10 cycles, and the profit/loss during the testing period (data unknown at the time of selection) waspositive in all 10 cycles.
The values loaded in this product are thoseselected by the latest cycle (learning period 2022–2024) and fixed as is.
We do not search for the best year or overall optimal combination.
The selection is built with the discipline that only information available at the moment of firing is used.
Additionally, among the 110 cells,104 cells converge to the same parameters (take profit 20 pips / stop loss 20 pips / hold 120 minutes).
Forward testing continued to yield the same answer across years, indicating that the parameters sit on a broad plateau rather than sharp peakson a broad plateau.
■ We also disclose weaknesses
Please know before purchase which market conditions this EA struggles with.
1. Profits are biased toward the later period
| Year | Profit/Loss | Year | Profit/Loss |
| 2016 | -117.02 | 2021 | +257.72 |
| 2017 | 2022 | +286.73 | |
| 2018 | -24.06 | 2023 | +587.38 |
| 2019 | 2024 | +623.95 | |
| 2020 | 2025 | +428.38 |
2016 and 2018 were losses for the year. 2017 was almost flat.
The biases observed in the time bands this EA captures depend on market participant composition and trading hours conventions.
The most profitable period in the last 10 years was the most recent 3 years, and fund settings assuming this state should be avoided.
2. Relies on server time
This EA triggers based on the server time of the account. Brokers with a time difference from the testing environment will fire in a completely different time window, and the above performance will not be reproduced. Please confirm server time before implementation.
3. Firing times skew toward quiet periods
Most entries occur around date changes. During this time, spreads tend to widen, and results may differ by account type.We recommend accounts with narrow spreads.
4. Stop loss does activate
During the testing period, 535 occurrences, 17.7% were stop-loss exits. The design accommodates up to 20 pips stop loss.
■ Recommended trading conditions
| Item | Recommendation |
| Currency pair / Timeframe | GBPJPY /1-minute (M1) |
| Account type | Narrow-spread account (GBPJPY around 1.0 pip) |
| Minimum margin | Over 100,000 yen per 0.05 lot |
| Operating environment | 24 hours (VPN recommended) |

■ In conclusion
This EA does not rely on market forecasting.
What exists is a collection of observed facts: “on this day of the week at this time, market participants’ circumstances tend to bias prices.”
Because of that bias, performance will disappear when the bias disappears.
We publish year-by-year performance and weaknesses without concealment so you can use it with full awareness.
Use the ten years of actual data and the underlying tendencies as part of your decision-making.

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)
