| Screenshot | Start | Risk setting | Net profit | Profit factor | Max equity drawdown | Trades won |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | $10,000 | Medium-High, Ultra | +$24,890 | 5.08 | 5.29% | 140 of 162 (86%) |
| 2 | $3,000 | Extreme, Ultra | +$113,798 | 5.42 | 15.45% | 140 of 162 (86%) |
What each risk level would have earned on $10,000. These are the same 162 trades, replayed with the EA's own lot sizing, compounding and $6 per lot commission.
| Risk level | Normal mode profit | Return | Max drawdown | Ultra mode profit | Max drawdown |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Very Low | $3,108 | 31% | 0.7% | $3,398 | 1.1% |
| Low | $5,212 | 52% | 1.1% | $5,690 | 1.8% |
| Low-Medium | $7,630 | 76% | 1.5% | $8,419 | 2.4% |
| Medium | $9,797 | 98% | 1.8% | $10,901 | 2.9% |
| Medium-High (default) | $21,420 | 214% | 3.0% | $24,237 | 4.7% |
| High | $45,903 | 459% | 4.6% | $53,335 | 7.1% |
| Very High | $87,897 | 879% | 6.1% | $105,644 | 9.4% |
| Extreme | $284,941 | 2,849% | 9.1% | $364,812 | 14.0% |
- Drawdown in this table counts closed trades only. Drawdown including open trades runs about 0.5 to 1.5 points higher.
- Ultra mode doubles the next lot after a losing trade. It earns more, with deeper drawdowns.
- From High upwards, compounding builds very large positions; Extreme reaches 27 lots from a $10,000 start. Real fills on large lots are worse than in the tester, so we recommend Medium-High or lower for live trading.
- 2025 was a calmer year for gold. Our 12-month 2025 test made, lower than 2026 but still profitable. We created the EA according to current market condition.
Quality and precision
Trove Sniper takes few trades and makes most of them count: about 16 trades a month, with 86% closing in profit.
| Measure (screenshot 1) | Result |
|---|---|
| Profit factor | 5.08 |
| Winning trades | 86% (buys 87.6%, sells 84.6%) |
| Longest losing streak | 4 trades |
| Average holding time | about 4 minutes |
| Profitable months | 11 of 11 |
| Recovery factor | 22.9 |
- Patient entries: it trades only when price reaches its own precision zones, so many days have no trade.
- Fast exits: once a trade moves into profit, the stop is pulled in quickly to protect it.
- No overtrading: it never opens a grid or a basket of orders.
Safety and funded accounts
At the default Medium-High risk, the deepest dip in 2026 was 3.10% of equity in Normal mode and 5.29% in Ultra mode. No trade was ever left without a stop loss.
- Hard stop loss on every trade, sent with the order.
- Normal mode uses no grid, no martingale and no averaging down. Ultra mode doubles the next lot after a loss, so keep it for accounts that can take larger swings.
- Daily drawdown limit (optional): when reached, the EA closes its trades and pauses until the next day.
- News and holiday filter: no new trades on NFP and Fed rate decision days, or on US bank holidays.
- Weekend protection: positions close before the Friday close, so there is no weekend gap risk.
- Manual control: the dashboard has Pause, Close Buy, Close Sell and Close All buttons.
Funded (prop firm) accounts. Trove Sniper suits funded challenges when you run it like this:
- Normal mode, at Medium risk or lower (Medium returned 98% in 2026 with a 1.8% maximum drawdown).
- Set the daily drawdown limit below your firm's limit, for example 3% when the firm allows 5%.
- Check your firm's rules first. Some firms ban trades shorter than one or two minutes, and Trove Sniper's shortest trade was 18 seconds.
Requirements and setup
Any RAW/ECN gold account with a GMT+2/GMT+3 server and a normal 100-ounce gold contract runs Trove Sniper as designed.
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Symbol | XAUUSD with a 100-ounce contract (check Specification, Contract size = 100). Not cent or micro gold |
| Account | Standard or RAW/ECN, USD, hedging account |
| Leverage | 1:100 or higher |
| Capital | $500 minimum; $1,000 or more recommended |
| Costs | Low gold spread; commission up to about $7 per lot round trip |
| Chart | XAUUSD, any timeframe |
| Running | 24 hours a day on a VPS close to your broker's server |
Best broker and timing. A RAW/ECN broker whose server runs on GMT+2 in winter and GMT+3 in summer, the most common setup. We test on Vantage. Most entries come at the Asian open and in the New York session, so keep the EA running all day.
Daylight saving. Nothing to change. On GMT+2/GMT+3 servers keep the default setting, and the EA follows the US clock change by itself. If your broker runs GMT+0 all year, select GMT+0 once in the settings.
How to backtest it correctly
A backtest is only as true as its tick data, so test on real ticks and check the data before trusting any number, ours included.
- Use XAUUSD from a RAW/ECN account at the broker you will trade with (100-ounce contract).
- Modelling: Every tick based on real ticks. Delays: Zero latency.
- Our settings: 2026.01.01 to 2026.11.08, $10,000 deposit, 1:2000 leverage.
- After the test, History Quality should show 95% real ticks or more.
- Open the Journal tab and look for "tick prices mismatch" or "real ticks discarded" (see below).
How fake backtests happen.
- Invented ticks. "Every tick" or "1 minute OHLC" modelling invents prices between candles. They move in smooth lines, so tight stops and trailing look far better than in real trading.
- Low real-tick share. A report with 10 to 20% real ticks is mostly invented data.
- Custom spread or zero commission, set lower than any broker charges.
- Picked dates: only the best months are shown.
What we saw ourselves. Our early tests on Pepperstone data, which had only 11% real ticks for this period, looked better than the same rules on Vantage's 100% real ticks. Even on the same Vantage live server, two runs of the same trading engine with the same settings differed: one tick download held 136 million ticks and gave a profit factor of 8.34; a later, more complete download held 152 million ticks and gave 5.03. We publish the 5.03.
Tick price mismatch. The tester checks the broker's stored ticks against its 1-minute candles. When they disagree on a day, it throws that day's real ticks away and invents prices from the candles, and the Journal says so. Some brokers' 2025 history has several such days, so those days are not real-tick results. To fix it:
- Close MetaTrader 5.
- Open the data folder (File > Open Data Folder) and delete the XAUUSD folder under bases\(your broker server)\ticks. Delete the same folder under Tester\Agent-...\bases too.
- Restart MT5 and run the test again, so fresh history downloads.
- If the messages remain, the broker's stored history for those days is damaged. Judge the EA on the other days, or test another broker's data.
