How it trades

BH Quadrant runs four separate gold strategies in one EA. Each looks for a different kind of move, so they don't all win or lose at the same time.

Four independent engines working side by side.
A stop-loss on every trade, sized from the Setting's risk and your account size.
A news filter that pauses new trades around high-impact news.
Closes before the weekend.
A daily loss limit and a maximum drawdown stop, both of which you can adjust.
Four built-in settings: static and trailing drawdown prop challenges, funded and personal accounts.

What to expect

Quadrant wins about 45% of its trades. The longest losing run in the full test was 10 trades, and trades last about 3 h 54 min on average.

PF: Profit factor: money made on winners divided by money lost on losers.
Balance / Equity DD: MetaTrader's relative drawdown: the largest fall from a peak, as a percentage. Equity includes trades still open. Everywhere else on this page, "Max DD" is the larger of the two.
Tick data: The share of real ticks in the test history. 100% is best; lower means part of the test used modelled prices.
Settings: Each setting is built into the EA and chosen with one input. The "could suit" notes are examples only, not recommendations: choose and adjust the settings to suit your own account, rules and risk.

Please read before you run Quadrant

Back-tested, not live

Every figure here comes from the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester on IC Markets XAUUSD data. Back-tests are hypothetical: they don't include every real-world cost, such as slippage, swap changes or your own broker's spread, and they don't guarantee future results.

The best month is hand-picked

It's the strongest month we found, chosen after testing. Judge Quadrant on the full 12 months and the drawdown, not on its best month.

You still need to manage it

An EA is a tool, not a hands-off income. Check it every day, choose the Setting and loss limits to suit your account and your prop firm's rules, watch for broker, VPS or connection problems, and pause it around events you're unsure of.

Trading is risky

Gold CFDs are leveraged, and you can lose money quickly, including more than you expect when the market gaps. Only trade with money you can afford to lose. Nothing on this site is investment advice.
