InpLotMode was 2 and InpRiskPercent was 11.846. Actual trade size varied, and peak aggregate open volume reached 1.44 lots. The input value is not an account loss cap. The test retains date-specific filters and entry windows within this interval. Market-closed execution attempts are present. These results are not independent out-of-sample evidence of those rules.
Test conditions
The interval is 2025-11-02 to 2026-11-02, with the end date excluded. The model is Every tick. Zero execution delay does not remove trading costs: commission and swap are included in net results; spread is reflected in execution prices.

The balance chart follows cash flows from executed trades after costs. It is not a continuous equity curve. Relative equity drawdown separately includes floating profit and loss, and is different from the percentage attached to the largest monetary drawdown.
Monthly results
All calendar months are shown, including negative and zero months. The first and last months are partial. Positive monthly closed cash flow does not mean there were no floating losses during that month.

Automatic sizing
These are the selected sizing inputs. Selection used a limited set of candidates on this same interval, not an independent unseen period or an exhaustive optimisation. A risk-level or balance-step input is not an account loss limit. Individual fills and combined open exposure are different quantities; increasing an input need not scale profit and drawdown proportionally.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| InpLotMode | 2 |
| InpRiskPercent | 11.846 |
| Executed lot range | 0.01–0.72 |
| Peak combined open lots | 1.44 |
Reading this test
These figures describe the recorded configuration and interval. Broker conditions, costs and another period can change the result. Historical drawdown is not a future loss ceiling. This review is produced by MQLume, the seller, and is not a verified live-account record or a forecast. Trading involves risk, including loss of capital.
