◆年別の正直開示(2026-07-17): 8年で赤字は2023(-1.4%)のみですが、利益の約71%が2021年に集中しています。他の年はほぼ横ばい〜小幅プラスの「負けない+稀に大勝ち」型で、毎年の安定収益を約束するものではありません。
🧊 "Low DD, high quality" = the conservative version of COMET (daily)
BITCOIN COMET (H4) uses the same trend engine as , applied to the daily (D1) timeframe. The daily timeframe reduces noise (whipsaws), so it captures only a few large trends with high precision, giving a high PF (2.52) and a DD about half that of COMET (8.3% → 3.2%). The return is modest (+85%) and trades are few (about 3-4/yr), but it is ideal for conservative operation that wants to minimize DD. * Since it correlates with COMET (H4), double-allocating to both is not diversification.
⚡ Minimum deposit: from 100k JPY (Standard or Micro account, either is fine)
You can operate from 100k JPY. If you want to run it more safely with a smaller amount, we recommend a Micro (cent) account (the real exposure of a 0.01 lot becomes about 1/100). Thanks to its daily, low-DD design, it is relatively stable among crypto EAs.
🧊 BITCOIN GLACIER EA
A BTCUSD daily (D1)-only bidirectional trend-follower. It confirms breakouts of the Donchian channel (10 bars ≈ 2 weeks) with an ATR×0.2 margin and trades only in the direction of the SMA200 slope. Profits are extended via an ATR×4 trailing stop. Daily operation greatly reduces false signals, achieving low DD and high PF. Lot is derived from tickValue; one risk per trade.

⚠️ Risk Warning
- The return is modest (+85%/8 yr) and trades are low-frequency at about 3-4/yr. For conservative operation that is not in a hurry for profit
- 44 trades is sufficient for a trend EA, but the low frequency causes year-to-year variability
- The return depends on the 2018-2025 BTC market. Future replication is not guaranteed
- Since it shares the same strategy as and correlates with COMET (H4), double-allocating to both is not diversification
How the strategy works (entry, stop, target)
On BTCUSD daily (D1), this is an ultra-low-frequency, low-drawdown trend follower that catches only Bitcoin's major trends a few dozen times a year.
Run Mode (Defensive / Standard / Aggressive)
Every EA exposes a "RunMode" dropdown that switches aggressiveness across three levels. It only multiplies the lot (risk) — entry/exit logic, symbol and timeframe never change.
Defensive
×0.5Half of standard risk. Both max drawdown and expected return are roughly halved. For capital preservation or first-time automated trading.
Standard (recommended)
×1.0The backtest figures shown on this page use this setting. Start here.
Aggressive
×2.0Double the standard risk. Return and max drawdown roughly double, raising the risk of ruin. Use only with money you can afford to lose.
Approximations relative to Standard (Defensive ≈ 0.5x / Aggressive ≈ 2x). Drawdown does not scale linearly; in sharp markets Aggressive can exceed this estimate. Lots auto-adjust to balance when compounding is on.
