1What XAUUSD M15 Glide is

Five strategies, one chart

Five independent rule sets run side by side on the same account. Each one keeps its own magic number (202601 to 202605), so no position ever clashes with another strategy – or with your other Expert Advisors.

Timeframe is hard-coded to M15

Attach the EA to any chart you like. It always reads and trades M15 bars, so a wrongly-timed attach cannot change the behaviour.

Risk defined before entry

Stop loss and take profit are calculated as multiples of ATR on every trade. The EA never averages down and never widens a stop.

No indicators, no repainting

Each strategy is a short pattern of raw open, high, close and low values compared across recent bars. Nothing is redrawn after the fact.

Genetic search, not guesswork

The rule sets were discovered by a genetic algorithm over 5,000 bars of gold data, seeded with 10,000 pips of equity per strategy.

On-chart info panel

Symbol, lot size, magic numbers, every strategy on/off state and floating profit – all visible in the corner of the chart.

Two opposing philosophies on one account. Most multi-strategy EAs sell you one idea five times. Glide runs five different ones: Strategy 2 is a small-profit, high-win-rate rule set with a target below 1 : 1, while Strategies 4 and 5 aim for more than 2 : 1 with win rates under 50 percent.

2Backtest performance

5,000 bars of gold data, 10,000 pips of seed equity per strategy, 1,254 trades.

How to read the combined account. The headline balance is the arithmetic average of five independent 10,000-pip strategy accounts, so it is an estimate, not a single traded account. The equity curve tracks realized profit and loss only — open positions are not marked to market between bars.
Read the drawdown at both levels. The combined account draws down 732 pips (4.99%), which is where the diversification shows. Individually the five strategies run deeper — from 10.43% up to 14.75% — and a single strategy traded alone will not look like the combined curve. Gold moves fast; size your risk for the strategy level, not the average.

3Strategy breakdown

Each strategy trades its own slice of the account and is reported separately.

Strategy Trades Win rate Profit factor Max DD Buys / sells Net pips Parameters
S1 477 44.2% 1.31 1,922 (11.02%) 228 / 249 +9,781.8 ATR 28 · SL 3.33 · TP 4.36 · flip
S2 241 73.9% 1.45 1,885 (13.16%) 120 / 121 +9,859.9 ATR 12 · SL 3.41 · TP 1.77 · one-way
S3 221 45.7% 1.63 2,354 (11.41%) 99 / 122 +12,232.7 ATR 37 · SL 3.63 · TP 6.71 · flip
S4 156 48.7% 1.56 1,539 (10.43%) 78 / 78 +8,023.8 ATR 14 · SL 3.30 · TP 7.54 · flip
S5 159 47.8% 1.43 2,135 (14.75%) 57 / 102 +6,317.5 ATR 19 · SL 3.21 · TP 7.78 · flip
Every strategy except S2 closes on an opposite signal (flip) – S2 is one-way. S3 leads with more than 12,200 pips of realized profit, and the average max drawdown across the five strategies is the lowest of the series.

4Risk and reward

Stop loss and take profit are sized as multiples of ATR, so every trade has a defined risk the moment it opens.

Strategy ATR period Stop loss Take profit Target R:R Exit mode
S1 28 3.33 x ATR 4.36 x ATR 1.31 : 1 flip on opposite signal
S2 12 3.41 x ATR 1.77 x ATR 0.52 : 1 one-way
S3 37 3.63 x ATR 6.71 x ATR 1.85 : 1 flip on opposite signal
S4 14 3.30 x ATR 7.54 x ATR 2.28 : 1 flip on opposite signal
S5 19 3.21 x ATR 7.78 x ATR 2.42 : 1 flip on opposite signal
1.68 : 1

Realized avg win / avg loss
1.46
Profit factor
Strategy 2 is deliberately different. Its target reward to risk is below 1 : 1 (0.52 : 1) because it takes small profits behind a wider stop and leans on a 73.9% win rate instead. That is a design choice, not a free lunch — low targets mean losses are larger than wins when they arrive. The realized average win divided by the average loss is 1.39 : 1, derived from the profit factor 1.46 and the 51.2% win rate over 1,254 trades; it is calculated, not measured bar by bar.

5The strategy rules

Every entry is a short condition pattern built from raw open, high, close and low values of recent bars. Conditions are read as FIELD[bar], where [1] is the last closed bar.

Strategy 1genetic fitness 35.565

  2. CLOSE[4] > CLOSE[5]

  1. CLOSE[3] <= OPEN[5]
  2. CLOSE[1] >= HIGH[7]
  3. CLOSE[2] <= LOW[4]
  4. CLOSE[4] >= OPEN[1]
No repainting, no magic indicators – the conditions compare raw OHLC of recent bars, with ATR-based exits managed by the EA. The number of conditions differs per strategy, from three to five.

7Install in four steps

  1. Download the binary. The compiled .ex4 for MetaTrader 4 or .ex5 for MetaTrader 5. Sources are not released.
  2. Copy it into the terminal. Drop it in MQL4/Experts or MQL5/Experts, then restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator.
  3. Allow DLL imports. Tick the checkbox in the attach dialog and keep it enabled under Tools, Options, Expert Advisors. It is required — on start the EA opens www.fxmath.com in your browser once.
  4. Attach it to any XAUUSD chart. The timeframe is hard-coded, so it always trades M15 data and the chart period you chose is ignored.
Backtests are not live results. All profit and drawdown figures are expressed in pips of the quote (for gold, 0.1 = 0.10 USD). The strategies were found with a genetic algorithm, which can overfit past data. Validate on out-of-sample data before risking money, and never skip risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
