✨ Adopted independently through asset-class differentiation

BITCOIN COMET EA uses the same trend-following engine as , deployed to ETHUSD. BTC (store-of-value) and ETH (smart-contract platform) have different asset characteristics, and since we confirmed live that the same strategy works robustly on both, we adopted it independently as diversification within crypto assets.

⚡ 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, making the same 100k JPY far lower-risk).

ETHUSDH4Bidirectional7-yr live MT5Donchian+ATRPF 3.98

🚀 ETHEREUM EA

An ETHUSD-only bidirectional trend-follower. It confirms breakouts of the Donchian channel (20 bars) with an ATR×0.5 margin and trades only in the direction of the SMA200 slope. Profits are extended via an ATR×6 trailing stop. Using the same engine as BITCOIN COMET, it captures ETH's up and down trends in both directions. Lot is derived from tickValue; one risk per trade.

⚠️ Risk Warning

  • The return depends on the 2018-2025 ETH market. Future replication is not guaranteed
  • ETH is a high-volatility asset. Win rate 42% = the type that takes many small stop-losses to capture a big win
  • Cryptocurrencies carry regulatory risk (trading bans in various countries, etc.)
  • Running it together with BITCOIN COMET shares the same strategy with high correlation. Be mindful of capital allocation
  • Cross-feed real-tick stress test (Dukascopy 2018-2025, 187M ticks): stays profitable at PF 1.72 / +137%, but balance DD reached 49.5%. On brokers with wider spreads the drawdown can be far deeper than the nominal 11.9% (which is based on the Exness feed)

How the strategy works (entry, stop, target)

On ETHUSD H4, it follows Donchian breakouts and uses a wider ATR trail tuned to Ethereum's high volatility to ride trends.

Entry
Breakout of the 15-bar Donchian channel with an ATR×0.5 confirmation, only along the SMA200 slope.
Stop / trail
ATR×6 trailing stop (wider, given ETH's volatility).
Take profit
None fixed — the trail extends the trend.
Risk
Balance × 2%, max 5 lots.
Timeframe
A shorter 15-bar channel works best on ETH H4, adapting to Ethereum's faster trend shifts.

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

×0.5

Half of standard risk. Both max drawdown and expected return are roughly halved. For capital preservation or first-time automated trading.

Approx. return: +8.5%/yrApprox. max DD: 7%

Standard (recommended)

×1.0

The backtest figures shown on this page use this setting. Start here.

Approx. return: +16.9%/yrApprox. max DD: 14%

Aggressive

×2.0

Double the standard risk. Return and max drawdown roughly double, raising the risk of ruin. Use only with money you can afford to lose.

Approx. return: +16.9%/yrApprox. max DD: 14%

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.
