✨ 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 2.19

🚀 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

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: +7.3%/yrApprox. max DD: 5.9%

Standard (recommended)

×1.0

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

Approx. return: +14.6%/yrApprox. max DD: 11.86%

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: +29.2%/yrApprox. max DD: 23.7%

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.
