Profitable on 3 of 4 markets with reliable results.

Converted from MQL5 to Python and run with the same rules for every EA. Positions use MT5 lot sizes (100,000 units per FX lot, 100 oz per gold lot) with 1:100 leverage, one order at a time, and a stop-out below 10% of the starting balance. Sharpe is computed from the equity curve. Results marked as unreliable are shown for completeness only.

From the backtest equity curve, sampled about every two days; only reliable results.

Blow-up risk: No blow-up pattern found

None of the usual blow-up patterns were found in the code, and the account was not stopped out in our backtests. That is not a guarantee: any EA can lose money.

High: stopped out in our backtest, or martingale/grid sizing without a stop loss. Elevated: martingale or grid sizing with a stop loss, or several positions at once without a stop loss. What the label means and what we found →

Strategy analysis

Strategy analysis is impossible because the source code file is in binary format and cannot be read. The specific trading logic, entry conditions, exit conditions, position sizing, and money management of ASCV cannot be inferred from the filename alone. Access to the readable MQ5 source code is required for detailed strategy analysis. The file may have been compiled into .ex5 format rather than being the .mq5 source format. It is recommended to re-download or obtain the correct source code file before performing analysis. Currently it can only be confirmed that this is an MQL5 platform EA file.

Strengths

  • Cannot evaluate - source code unreadable
  • Cannot evaluate - source code unreadable
  • Cannot evaluate - source code unreadable

Weaknesses

  • Source code file is in binary format, preventing any analysis
  • File may be a compiled .ex5 file rather than .mq5 source code
  • Unable to verify EA safety and strategy logic

Possible improvements

  • Obtain the correct .mq5 source code file instead of the compiled binary
  • Re-download the uncompiled source code from the original source

Risk assessment

Overall risk: High risk

  • Source code unreadable, EA strategy and risks completely unknown
  • Binary file may contain arbitrary code with potential security risks
