From −20% Back to Plus — One Month of GoldDragon Live, and What the Latest Version Would Have Done
| 📉 Honest update: in October the GoldDragon live account went down to almost −20%. At the very end of the month it turned positive — and the positions that did it are still open. |
October was a hard month. I want to show you the whole picture: the drop, the upgrades, the turnaround — and what the latest version would have done on the same month.
1️⃣ BACK TO PLUS AT THE END OF THE MONTH
On Oct 29 the EA opened two sells. On Friday gold dropped sharply, and those two positions turned the whole month positive.
| Live account · October 2026 | 🟡 Live |
|---|---|
| Start | $1,000 |
| Lowest point | almost −20% |
| End of month (equity) | +14.7% ($1,146.94) |
| The two Oct 29 sells | +$321 — still open |
The backtest of the same EA on the same month finished at +6.9% — the live account finished ahead of its own backtest.
2️⃣ IF IT HAD RUN THE LATEST VERSION ALL MONTH
During October I studied every losing stretch and upgraded the EA three to four times. The full one-month Backtest vs Live chart — with the latest version added as a green line — is in the comments:
👉 One-month Backtest vs Live chart (comments)
| 🟢 | Latest version on the same month (1–31 Oct): +76.8%. The same hard month would have been clearly in profit from start to finish. |
| 📉 | Max balance drawdown 13.2% — instead of the almost −20% the live account went through. |
| ⚖️ | Profit factor 1.89 · win rate 50% on 134 trades. |
| 🔄 | The latest version is now running. From the next update, it will be compared week by week against its own backtest. |
3️⃣ EVERYONE GOES THROUGH THIS
| ✅ Almost everyone faces this after starting an EA. • The first weeks go red, and you start to doubt everything. • It went down to almost −20% — but it still came back up. • People say a live account that makes even 50% of the backtest is already a success. • Still, this EA was built through dozens, even hundreds of rounds of research and testing before I released it. I believe time will bring the good news — so I keep going, and I keep waiting. |
| ⚠️ The latest-version figures come from a backtest of a version I finished after watching October live. They show what the improvements would have done on this month — they are not a promise about the future. Every GoldDragon trade has a fixed stop loss, and that is why I publish the live results openly. |
📅 EVERY TWO WEEKS, GOOD OR BAD
I post a Backtest vs Live comparison every two weeks — same period, same conditions, good weeks and bad weeks alike. Next update: around 14 November 2026.
