RA CRT Engine — Institutional Liquidity Execution Model for XAUUSD (Gold)
Professional-grade, rules-based automation built around Candle Range Theory (CRT) + liquidity raid reversals (TBS-style) + structural confirmation (MSS) + displacement
RA CRT Engine is an automated execution system designed to participate in high-probability liquidity reversal events on XAUUSD, using price-action logic (candles, ranges, sweeps, and structural breaks) rather than indicator stacking. The objective is simple: identify a controlled range, wait for a liquidity raid beyond that range, confirm a structure shift, then execute with predefined risk governance and exits.
This is not a “signal spammer.” It is engineered to trade selectively, with repeatable logic and strict entry conditions.
What the EA Trades
The strategy targets recurring institutional behaviors commonly seen on Gold:
-
Range formation → price consolidates and defines a reference boundary
-
Liquidity raid (sweep) → price runs stops beyond the boundary
-
Reclaim + MSS → market shows confirmation that the sweep failed and structure shifted
-
Displacement → momentum confirms intent (not a random wick event)
-
Execution + management → one-position model with controlled trade lifecycle
Operational Design (High-Level)
-
Instrument focus: XAUUSD (Gold)
-
Logic basis: Candle/range mechanics and structure (not indicator-driven entries)
-
Trade behavior: selective participation; designed for quality over frequency
-
Risk governance: position sizing is parameter-driven; margin-use caps are supported via configuration
-
Backtest context shown in reports: “Five Percent Online Ltd” environment, $100,000 initial deposit, leverage of 1:100 and 01.01.2023-31.12.2025 timeframe.
Who This Is For
RA CRT Engine is built for traders who want:
-
A systematic, rules-based framework (no discretionary clicking)
-
Liquidity/structure style execution (not trend-following)
-
A configurable engine that can be tuned across risk and frequency envelopes and rule detection environment
Independent AI Review (Based on Provided MT5 Strategy Tester Reports)
Below is an audit-style summary generated strictly from the screenshots you provided (Strategy Tester result pages). This is not a promise of future performance; it is a structured reading of the reported historical tests.
1) High-Performance / Aggressive Profile (Example Report)
Environment: Initial Deposit $100,000, Leverage 1:100
-
Total Net Profit: 9,323,665.12
-
Profit Factor: 2.43
-
Sharpe Ratio: 8.91
-
Total Trades: 429
-
Balance Drawdown Maximal: 710,429.37 (24.80%)
-
Equity Drawdown Maximal: 918,238.27 (10.33%)
-
Equity Drawdown Relative: 30.31% (302,476.05)
Interpretation: This profile demonstrates the system’s ability (in the tested historical sample) to compound aggressively when allowed to run with higher exposure, while accepting a meaningfully larger drawdown envelope.
2) Lower-Risk / Prop-Safer Profiles (Two Example Reports)
Profile A (Example Report)
-
Total Net Profit: 298,577.60
-
Profit Factor: 2.25
-
Sharpe Ratio: 9.80
-
Total Trades: 589
-
Balance Drawdown Maximal: 19,316.70 (5.00%)
-
Equity Drawdown Maximal: 29,289.99 (7.69%)
-
Profit Trades: 303 (51.44%)
Profile B (Example Report)
-
Total Net Profit: 153,248.70
-
Profit Factor: 2.00
-
Sharpe Ratio: 10.41
-
Total Trades: 917
-
Balance Drawdown Maximal: 11,622.92 (6.68%)
-
Equity Drawdown Maximal: 13,598.42 (7.75%)
-
Profit Trades: 559 (60.96%)
Interpretation: These profiles show a clearly different operating envelope: lower return targets paired with materially reduced drawdowns, while maintaining profit factors around ~2.0+ in the provided samples.
3) Mid/High Return Profile (Example Report)
-
Total Net Profit: 5,042,750.42
-
Profit Factor: 2.07
-
Sharpe Ratio: 7.52
-
Total Trades: 441
-
Balance Drawdown Maximal: 408,846.80 (8.22%)
-
Equity Drawdown Maximal: 637,222.59 (14.12%)
-
Balance Drawdown Relative: 36.70% (249,899.24)
-
Equity Drawdown Relative: 42.35% (315,634.15)
Interpretation: This sits between “prop-safe” and “aggressive,” showing strong profitability with higher volatility and equity variance reflected in the relative drawdown figures.
4) Specialized / Ultra-Selective Snapshot (Example Report)
Environment: “100% real ticks” shown
-
Total Net Profit: 13,737.07
-
Profit Factor: 567.71
-
Sharpe Ratio: 13.41
-
Total Trades: 12
-
Balance Drawdown Maximal: 11.72 (0.01%)
-
Equity Drawdown Maximal: 2,550.00 (2.32%)
-
Win rate shown: 12/12 (100%)
Interpretation: Statistically, this is an ultra-small trade sample and should be viewed as a specialized snapshot rather than a baseline expectation. Its value is in demonstrating that the engine can be tuned into very selective regimes (low trade count, tight exposure), not in claiming a general “100% win rate.”
Buyer-Facing Summary of What These Reports Suggest
Across the provided test reports, the engine demonstrates a consistent theme: the same core logic can be tuned across multiple exposure profiles, from conservative (lower drawdown, more modest growth) to aggressive (high compounding with higher drawdown). The strongest results appear when the engine is allowed sufficient room to express its edge (i.e., not over-restrained), while the more conservative profiles show that the system can operate with tighter drawdown controls at the cost of lower absolute profit.
