Koala EA MT5

Coded with Trend-Following & Divergence logic, Koala EA delivers an Institutional approach for both Independent Traders and Prop Firm Challengers.

1. Key Logic: Trend-Following & Divergence for AUDCAD M1 and M15, No Grid, No Martingale.

The key logic is to follow the major trend and/or the divergence of higher timeframes and look to enter on the lower timeframes. If the market is still moving forward, Koala EA will look to add some limited positions in the same direction. This is completely different from the "No Brain" counter-trend adding positions of Grid/Martingale EAs.

Each order has its Hard Stop Loss level (Hidden Mode).

2. Proven by 18 Years' Tick-Data Backtests

Koala EA has passed rigorous, high-precision Tick-Data Backtests. To test the absolute robustness of Koala EA, we ran a "Blind Test" by selecting "Trade both Buy & Sell" simultaneously, without applying any macro trend filters. The results were outstanding: even without any human intervention or market direction bias, the underlying algorithm maintained exceptional stability and profitable equity curve. Backtest Conditions:

Tickdata of AUDCAD: 2008.01.01 - 2026. 04. 10

Timeframe: M1 and M15

Input Parameters: (Default Setting)

Auto Lot Balance (per 0.01 Lot) = 1000

Allow to Buy Sell = Buy and Sell

3. Buy Only & Sell Only: Boost Performance with SignalTech

While Koala EA runs flawlessly on 100% auto-pilot, we designed it to support a hybrid institutional approach for advanced traders. By utilizing our top-ranking Trading Sytem, SignalTech, alongside Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Trend Collection, we can well track the major trend direction of AUDCAD. By manually switching Koala EA to "Buy Only" or "Sell Only" during strong macro trends, we can aggressively ride the dominant wave. This approach significantly boosts performance and reduce the DrawDown to a maximal extent. Our experience is:

      When AUDCAD is neutral, we select "Both buy and sell," Auto Lot Balance (per 0.01 Lot) = 1000 or 2000, or simply close Koala EA to keep powder dry.

      When AUDCAD is in a strong trend market, we'll trade "Buy only" or "Sell only" to chase the major trend, Auto Lot Balance (per 0.01 Lot) = 100, 200, or 50. That means 10x - 20x risk than usual. 

For Beginners who want to see daily trading activity and continuous market engagement, we suggest using the default setting of Koala EA.

Auto Lot Balance (per 0.01 Lot) = 1000

Allow to Buy Sell = Buy and Sell

4. Trading is a systematic work, Never Dream it as a Single Button

"None of the indicators or patterns can be used in isolation." — Sh*** J****,  CMT (Chartered Market Technician)

Many beginners fall into the classic retail trap: thinking that Forex trading is simple, or that a single indicator can magically guarantee permanent profit. This illusion is precisely why most retail traders fail, lose their capital, and lose confidence.

Forex trading is a highly sophisticated, multifaceted profession. There is a reason why global tier-1 investment banks employ massive, dedicated teams of analysts and traders. Unless you can confirm that your individual knowledge outmatches an entire bank's trading team, you must respect the industry consensus: diversification and continuous learning are mandatory for survival.

    9.1 What is False Bar?

Due to the quality of Liquidity Providers, "False Bars" on lower timeframes are very popular for AUDCAD and NZDCAD, especially on M1 and M15 Timeframes. False Bar = a candlestick that clearly differs from the market price and quickly disappears. 

Koala EA needs very accurate data feed. False Bars will challenge its logic significantly.

    9.2 How to deal with False Bar

Run Koala EA on Tickmill's Demo account, then use Local or Remote Trade Copy EA to copy the trades to your live account with your own trusted Brokers.

    Use MoneyManagement: True

    Fixed Lot Size: 0

    Auto Lot Balance (Per 0.01 Lot): 1000

It means every $1000 balance, the starting volume is 0.01 Lot.

1000 = Normal Risk

500 = High Risk

11. FAQ: Is News Filter available? 

We do not use any News Filter for Koala EA. We never use News Filter in any of our trading systems.

Firstly, the most important reason is that Koala EA takes a completely different, institutional approach: we constantly conduct in-depth fundamental analysis of the market.

      For Full-time Traders: For any event and/or economic data with potentially significant impact, we'll close Koala EA, observe patiently, and re-initiate trading when the dust settles.

      For Part-time Traders: Even during important risk events that may cause a major directional reversal, without any intervention, Koala EA can still operate well. During the 18 years' tick data backtest, we did not use any News Filter. The performance of Koala EA is still solid. This could well prove that Koala EA can work well in any complex market conditions.

      However, we believe that appropriate manual intervention can further boost performance and reduce drawdown.

Secondly, based on our experience, all News Filters currently used by EAs in the market come from interfaces of some forex news websites, deciding whether to trade based on their High/Low labels. The forex market is vast and profound, far beyond the deep understanding these news websites can provide.

Thirdly, if any news data release adversely affects the trading of an EA, then we would have to consider whether there is some flaw in the logic of that EA.
