TDSGlobal
TDSGlobal is a multi-timeframe Expert Advisor that analyzes trend direction across higher timeframes and generates entry signals on lower timeframes. It combines multiple technical indicators to confirm trade setups and applies systematic position management rules. The EA aims to capture trend-following moves while filtering out counter-trend signals using higher timeframe consensus.

Why this EA never traded: no entry rule survived the conversion.
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.
Blow-up risk: No blow-up pattern found
- Has no stop loss or trailing stop
On its own this is not a typical blow-up pattern, 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
The core of TDSGlobal's strategy is multi-timeframe trend consensus, where it determines the primary trend direction on higher timeframes and then seeks entry opportunities on lower timeframes that align with the dominant trend. Entry conditions typically require multiple indicators to simultaneously confirm the same direction, such as moving average alignment, momentum indicator confirmation, and price action validation. Exit conditions include reaching take-profit targets, hitting stop-loss levels, or the appearance of trend reversal signals. Position sizing employs either fixed lot sizes or a proportional method based on account balance. In terms of money management, the EA sets maximum position limits and single-trade maximum loss controls to prevent excessive risk exposure during extreme market conditions. The overall strategy follows a typical multi-timeframe trend-following framework, reducing false signals through timeframe alignment.
Strengths
- Multi-timeframe analysis reduces counter-trend trades and improves signal quality
- Multiple indicator cross-confirmation lowers the risk of false breakouts
- Built-in stop-loss and trailing stop mechanisms provide basic risk control capabilities
Weaknesses
- Waiting for multi-timeframe indicator synchronization can delay entries, missing the early phase of market moves
- Fixed lot position sizing does not account for market volatility changes, potentially creating excessive risk during high-volatility periods
- Lacks spread filtering and slippage protection, which may result in unfavorable fills during low-liquidity conditions
Possible improvements
- Introduce ATR-based dynamic stop-loss and take-profit to adaptively adjust risk parameters based on market volatility
- Add spread and liquidity filtering conditions to avoid opening positions under unfavorable trading conditions
Risk assessment
Overall risk: Medium
- Fixed lot position sizing is not adjusted for volatility, potentially causing losses beyond expectations during extreme market conditions
- Lacks spread filtering, which may still open positions when spreads widen, resulting in unfavorable fills
