EA Settings:

Use centralized data for order calculation : TRUE/FALSE

  • If set to TRUE, the EA will use my centralized data for all calculations, ensuring that you receive the same trades as my account. I am using VantageFx as my broker.
  • If set to TRUE, then copy the following url (  http://candlestick.finovics.com/homepage/feed  ) in allow web request  Options >> Expert Advisor >> Tick Allow WebRequest for listed Url >> Add below URL >> Ok
  • If set to FALSE, the EA will use your broker’s data for all calculations.

Lot Size for Compounding: 0.01

  • This means that for every compounding value, the EA will place a 0.01 lot trade. For example:
  • If the account balance is $175, it will place a 0.01 lot trade.
  • If the account balance is $350, it will place a 0.02 lot trade and so on.
  • If the account balance is $520, it will place a 0.03 lot trade (rounded off).

Compounding balance value : $175

  • This means that the EA will compound at every $175 balance.

Maximum order count : 2

  • This means that the maximum number of orders at one cycle will be 2.

Take Profit : 150
Stop Loss : 120

Max spread to take orders : 100

Start time (hrs) : 04 
End time (hrs) : 23

  • Based on VanatgeFx server time which is GMT+3 (Daylight Saving Time begins)
  • If your broker timezone is GMT+2 then modify the  Start time (hrs) : 03  and End time (hrs) : 22
  • If your broker timezone is GMT+1 then modify the  Start time (hrs) : 02  and End time (hrs) : 21 and so on

Comments : “Gold_Multiply_v2.1"

*The magic number is “2709“, which seems to be specified within EA. Please note that if you place different EAs on the same account, you should avoid overlapping magic numbers.

Example of Operation of “Gold Multiply Funds EA"

The logic of this EA is unknown except for “advanced pattern recognition using AI and machine learning".

Therefore, we will introduce the results of backtest analysis by the author.

  • Open an account of $200 on the first day of every month with the default setting.
GMT shift value of NOZAX
  • Winter Time/Daylight Saving Time=+1/+2

When operating with NOZAX, it is necessary to change Start time=3 and End time=22.

  • In other words, you open an account every month and increase your investment account.

One year later, you will have 12 accounts with different start times, and the balance will be the total of them.

The investment amount is up to $2,400 per year, and according to the 2022 backtest results, the year-end balance will be more than $8,000,000.

* This is based on the backtest results and does not guarantee the future.

Backtesting the Gold Multiply Funds EA

  • Account: NZX Zero (ECN) (NOZAX)
  • Currency Pair: XAUUSD#
  • Time frame: M30
  • Initial Balance: $200
  • Parameters: Default except Start time=3 and End time=22
  • Period: 1 January 2020 – 31 December 2022

In my environment, historical data of XAUUSD is only available for about 3 years, so I cannot verify it before 2020, but it seems that it can be at least the last 3 years. In the past, machine learning was one of the causes of over-optimization, but I think it is also a good example of how good AI has become these days.

It may be a “lottery", but how about a bite?
