CLOUDPips Hoshi is a ready-made multi-strategy trading robot for gold (XAUUSD) on standard and cent accounts. It also works on BTCUSD (Bitcoin) with the same presets. Instead of one strategy, Hoshi combines two: the breakout approach of CLOUDPips Kumo and the trend approach of CLOUDPips Sora, in five entries that each held up across 23 years of gold history. Everything is pre-tuned: attach it, choose a preset, and let it run.
Sora and Kumo are for traders who like to fine-tune. Hoshi is for traders who want both styles without configuring anything.
How it works
- Breakout entries: Hoshi tracks the market's recent swing highs and lows and trades when price closes beyond them, in the direction of the break.
- Trend entries: Hoshi also joins established trends when the bigger trend and the short-term move agree.
- Kaze (wind) filter, on by default: the market must be at least as active as normal for that time of day. Signals in a quiet market are skipped.
- Stop loss: on every trade, based on volatility.
- Exit: breakout trades have no fixed take profit and follow the trend with a trailing stop. Trend trades take part of the profit early and trail the rest.
- Lot size: calculated from a % of your balance for every trade. Several trades can be open at the same time.
Expect a win rate of around 39%, with winners on average about 2.6 times the size of the losers.
Nothing to tune
- Every entry is pre-set and tested together.
- The presets work out of the box. Only RiskPercent needs your attention.
Risk controls
- Hard stop loss on every trade
- Risk-based lot size with margin and volume checks
- Kaze filter (on by default)
- Optional: equity take profit (close all), profit-target stop, emergency drawdown cut, order count limit, daily SL / TP hit limits, minimum distance between trades

Recommended settings
-
Symbol: XAUUSD (built for gold). Also works on BTCUSD with the same presets: start at 0.5% risk there and don't use Aggressive.
-
Chart timeframe: any. We recommend D1: the chart loads fastest and uses the least memory. The bot reads the timeframes it needs internally, so the chart timeframe does not change its trades.
-
Minimum balance: 1,000 USD on a standard account, or 10,000 USC on a cent account.
-
Presets:
- Default: RiskPercent = 1.0.
- Aggressive: RiskPercent = 2.0.
- Load either one as a .set file, and leave all other inputs at their defaults.
-
Aggressive risk: the equity drawdown reached about 72% over 23 years. Use it only with money you can afford to lose.
-
Do not run Hoshi with CLOUDPips Kumo or CLOUDPips Sora on the same account: Hoshi already contains their main entries.
-
Running several CLOUDPips bots or symbols on one account? Lower RiskPercent to 0.5 on each as a starting point, or lower still to match the risk you are comfortable with.
-
Small balances: the broker's minimum lot can mean more risk than the % you set.
-
VPS: recommended, so the trailing stops keep updating.
Backtest results
- MT5 Strategy Tester · XAUUSD M5 · every tick based on real ticks (QuantDataManager tick data) · 1,000 USD deposit · Kaze filter on.
- Every trade is costed with a realistic spread of 0.24 USD (24 cents), the typical spread of a standard account. Many backtests use a much lower spread; ours does not.
| Preset | Period | Net profit | Trades | Profit factor | Balance DD (relative) | Equity DD (relative) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Default 1% | 2003–2026 | +87,709% | 3,077 | 1.67 | 42.37% | 47.92% |
| Aggressive 2% | 2003–2026 | +5,288,160% | 3,080 | 1.82 | 67.97% | 72.43% |
| Default 1% | 2024–2026 | +367% | 405 | 1.74 | 16.15% | 20.85% |
| Aggressive 2% | 2024–2026 | +2,563% | 419 | 1.76 | 24.15% | 31.78% |
- Also works on BTCUSD (Bitcoin): with the same Default preset, the 2017–2026 backtest (MT5 · BTCUSD M5 · every tick based on real ticks · 6.40 USD spread · 1,000 USD deposit) had a profit factor of 1.23 and an equity drawdown of 53.2%. Drawdowns on BTCUSD were deeper than on gold for several bots, so start at 0.5% risk there and don't use Aggressive.
- Frequency: about 2.5 trades per week on average (about 2.7 per week in 2024–2026).
- The 23-year figures: they compound for 23 years, so they are not a realistic expectation. Look at the profit factor, the drawdown and the 2024–2026 test instead.
- Losing years: Hoshi has them too. On the Default preset: 2003 (−9.3%), 2004 (−18.3%), 2005 (−11.8%), 2014 (−6.7%), 2021 (−0.1%), 2022 (−26.9%).
- Best years: 2025 (+180.7%), 2020 (+168.3%) and 2016 (+149.7%).
- 2024–2026: one of the strongest stretches in the 23 years (a strong gold trend). Do not expect every period to look like it.
- Your results will differ: they depend on your broker's spread, swap, execution and the tick data your tester uses.
Who it is for
- Traders who want a ready-made gold system with both breakout and trend entries
- Traders who are fine with a few trades a week, a low win rate with large winners, and deep drawdowns in bad years
- Not for anyone expecting guaranteed returns or trading money they cannot afford to lose
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Results depend on your broker's spread, swap and execution.
