FXEA365 Atlas Diversified Trend Portfolio MT4

ATLAS PORTFOLIO is a single Expert Advisor that manages a diversified trend-following portfolio across USDJPY, GBPJPY, EURJPY, BTCUSD and ETHUSD from one chart.

MT4 EDITION — This is the MetaTrader 4 build of ATLAS PORTFOLIO, version 1.52. An MT5 edition is published separately on this account; both builds use the same trading logic and the same version number. The MetaTrader 4 Strategy Tester can test only one symbol at a time, so the portfolio as a whole can only be backtested on MetaTrader 5. All performance figures quoted in this description were produced on MetaTrader 5 with 100% real tick data. MT4 results will differ, because tick model, spread and execution differ between the two platforms and between brokers.

=== START HERE ===
1) Read the RISK WARNING below before anything else.
2) One chart runs the whole portfolio — it trades USDJPY, GBPJPY, EURJPY, BTCUSD and ETHUSD. Make sure all five symbols exist in your Market Watch.
3) Test the free demo in the Strategy Tester first: see “5-MINUTE DEMO CHECKLIST” below.
4) Platform: MetaTrader 4 (this page). MetaTrader 5 edition: https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/182751
5) Not sure where to start? Our four flagship EAs (FXEA365):
- Gold King Breakout Grid (XAUUSD, high-risk grid): https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/182525
- Gold Viper Breakout (XAUUSD): https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/182520
- AIFW AI Framework (rules engine + optional AI): https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/198828

=== REQUIREMENTS ===
- Symbol / timeframe: USDJPY, GBPJPY, EURJPY, BTCUSD, ETHUSD (attach to one USDJPY H1 chart; all five symbols must be in Market Watch)
- Account type: hedging. On a netting account the EA prints a warning at start-up and position management may not work as designed.
- Leverage: 1:100 or higher; confirm your broker's crypto leverage
- Broker: any broker that offers the symbols above
- VPS: strongly recommended so the EA runs 24/7 without interruption

The JPY pairs are traded with a Donchian breakout engine. The crypto markets are traded with a Donchian breakout plus a long-term trend filter. There is no grid, no martingale and no averaging down. The trend engines hold at most one position per symbol; from version 1.49 a separate Monday-open sleeve can add one short-lived buy on each JPY pair (see below). Every position has a defined stop level from the moment it is opened. The JPY (MEGAMAX) legs send their stop-loss to the broker's server with every order. The crypto (COMET) legs' stops are monitored and executed by the EA itself, so those positions are protected only while the EA is running. Run it on a VPS or a machine that stays on 24/7.

The default Run-Mode from version 1.47 is Standard.

Main characteristics

- Five markets traded from a single chart: USDJPY, GBPJPY, EURJPY, BTCUSD, ETHUSD
- Two separate engines: a JPY breakout engine and a crypto trend engine
- One trend position per symbol at a time, plus a one-hour Monday-open sleeve on the JPY pairs (from 1.49)
- Every position has a stop-loss
- ATR-based trailing exits
- Risk-based position sizing
- No grid, no martingale, no averaging down
- Automatic broker prefix and suffix detection
- Four risk profiles

How the portfolio works

For USDJPY, GBPJPY and EURJPY the EA uses the MEGAMAX engine. It trades long only, on Donchian channel breakouts, with an ATR-based initial stop, an ATR trailing stop and a maximum holding period. Positions that do not develop are closed by the time exit rather than left open indefinitely.

For BTCUSD and ETHUSD the EA uses the COMET engine. It combines a Donchian breakout with a long-term simple moving average trend filter and an extension filter, so breakouts that occur far above the trend baseline are not taken.

Risk profiles

- Defensive: the most conservative sizing, the smallest drawdown
- Standard: the default from version 1.47 and the reference setting
- Aggressive: larger sizing and materially larger drawdown
- Ultra: the highest risk profile, with the deepest real-tick drawdown, and no longer the default

Before version 1.47 the default was Ultra. Version 1.47 changed only the default Run-Mode; the trading logic itself was not changed.

Historical portfolio test

Period 2019.01.01 to 2026.06.28, starting balance USD 10,000, Run-Mode Standard, all five markets:

- Profit factor 1.48
- 1,193 trades
- Win rate 33.19%
- Maximum equity drawdown 19.74%
- Maximum balance drawdown 16.29%
- Recovery factor 6.17

These are historical Strategy Tester results, not live trading results. A win rate around one third is normal for a trend-following system: the method relies on the average win being larger than the average loss, not on winning often.

Recent real-tick verification

Window 2026.04 to 2026.07, starting balance USD 10,000:

- Defensive: profit factor 1.15, drawdown 11.4%
- Standard: profit factor 1.11, drawdown 22.7%
- Aggressive: profit factor 1.09, drawdown 39.0%
- Ultra: profit factor 0.99, drawdown 70.9%

Ultra was the only tier that did not make money in this window, and a separate test on a different broker also showed a materially higher Ultra drawdown. That is the reason version 1.47 changed the default Run-Mode to Standard.

NEW IN v1.49 — MONDAY-OPEN SLEEVE (JPY PAIRS)
On Monday at 01:00 broker server time the EA can open one additional buy on each of USDJPY, EURJPY and GBPJPY, and closes it at 02:00. Each sleeve trade carries a hard 50-pip stop-loss sent to the broker with the order and its own magic number, and it is skipped if the spread stays above 3.5 pips for 30 minutes. Size is 0.5% of balance at risk in Standard, scaled by the Run-Mode like every other leg. The sleeve shares the existing margin and guard checks and does not change the trend legs: with the sleeve switched off, our regression test reproduced all 1,164 deals of v1.47 exactly.
Measured effect (MT5 Strategy Tester, "Every tick based on real ticks", MetaQuotes-Demo, JPY legs only, Standard, 2023.01-2026.09, $10,000):
- v1.47 (no sleeve): net +$17,997 / Profit Factor 1.23 / max balance drawdown 22.04% / max equity drawdown 24.04% / recovery factor 2.37
- v1.49 (with sleeve): net +$20,600 / Profit Factor 1.23 / max balance drawdown 21.78% / max equity drawdown 22.29% / recovery factor 2.73
The five-market and risk-tier figures elsewhere on this page were measured before the sleeve existed and are left unchanged.

NEW IN v1.50 — PREVIOUS-DAY BREAKOUT MODULE (USDJPY)
Each trading day the EA can place one buy-stop at the previous day's high and one sell-stop at the previous day's low on USDJPY. Orders are placed only inside the module's time window, only when the spread is normal and price is still far enough from the level; an unfilled order is removed the same day and an open trade is closed by a fixed time. Every order carries a hard stop-loss and a take-profit sent to the broker with the order, and its own magic numbers (MagicBase+300 buy, +301 sell). Size is 0.25% of free margin at risk in Standard, scaled by the Run-Mode. The purpose is more entries on days when the trend legs are idle: about 190 extra trades over the test below. The trend legs and the Monday-open sleeve are not changed: with UsePrado set to false, our regression test reproduced v1.49 exactly.
Measured effect (MT5 Strategy Tester, "Every tick based on real ticks", MetaQuotes-Demo, all legs, Standard, each year restarted at $10,000; v1.49 → v1.50):
- 2024: net +$8,686 → +$10,813 / Profit Factor 1.52 → 1.58 / max balance drawdown 18.30% → 16.52% / max equity drawdown 19.61% → 17.54%
- 2025: net +$1,671 → +$1,787 / Profit Factor 1.17 → 1.17 / max balance drawdown 21.45% → 22.74% / max equity drawdown 25.20% → 25.58%
- 2026.01-2026.09: net -$789 → -$434 / Profit Factor 0.92 → 0.96 / max balance drawdown 16.07% → 16.59% / max equity drawdown 22.27% → 22.28%
Drawdown was slightly higher in 2025 and 2026, and 2026 to date is a losing period in both versions. Set UsePrado to false to run without this module. Its time window assumes a broker server clock of UTC+3 (input PR_TimeBroker); if your broker's server time differs, set that input accordingly. In v1.50 a value other than 3 stopped the module's buy orders; this is fixed in v1.51, so update before changing this input. The previous-day high and low are read from your broker's own daily bars, so on a server clock other than UTC+3 the levels differ from the test above.

Why five markets

The JPY pairs and the crypto markets do not trend at the same time. Running them together in one account means the flat periods of one group are partly covered by the other, which smooths the equity curve compared with running any single market on its own.

Trade protection

Every position has a defined stop level from the moment it is opened. The trailing stop is ATR-based, so it adapts to the current volatility of each symbol rather than using a fixed distance. The JPY engine additionally closes positions that have been held beyond a maximum period.

Broker compatibility

From version 1.46 the EA detects broker symbol prefixes and suffixes for all five symbols automatically. If a required symbol cannot be found, the EA reports it in the log rather than silently skipping that market.

Crypto contract specifications vary between brokers. On accounts where the minimum lot size is large relative to the account balance, the minimum-lot protection may skip an entry rather than take a position that would exceed the configured risk.

Account and chart setup

- Chart: USDJPY H1
- Run-Mode: Standard
- Account type: designed for hedging accounts
- All five symbols must be available in the Market Watch
- A VPS is recommended for continuous operation

On a netting account the EA cannot hold independent positions per symbol as designed, and behaviour will differ from the tested configuration.

Strategy Tester

To reproduce the portfolio results, run the EA on USDJPY H1 in "Every tick based on real ticks" mode with all five symbols available in the terminal. Testing a single symbol will not reproduce the portfolio figures, because the results come from the combination of the five markets.

Configuration

The Run-Mode input selects the risk profile and sets the sizing parameters. Individual parameters can be adjusted, but the published results correspond to the Run-Mode presets as shipped. Set UseMondayFlow to false to run without the Monday-open sleeve, exactly as version 1.47.

Risk disclosure

Trading involves risk. Past performance, including Strategy Tester results and real-tick verification runs, does not guarantee future results. Use a risk level you are prepared to lose, and test on a demo account before trading live.

=== WHO THIS IS FOR / NOT FOR ===
Right fit: traders who want one EA to hold an uncorrelated set of trend markets rather than running five separate robots, anyone who accepts a win rate near one third because the average win is larger than the average loss, and anyone who reads the recent real-tick table above and starts on Standard or Defensive.
Not a fit: anyone who would put Ultra back on — in the 2026.04 to 2026.07 window it was the only tier that lost money, at a 70.9% drawdown — anyone who needs every market to be working at once, and anyone whose broker does not offer both the JPY pairs and BTCUSD/ETHUSD.

=== 5-MINUTE DEMO CHECKLIST ===
1) Download the free demo and open the Strategy Tester. Any chart works — the EA trades all five markets from whichever chart it sits on — but confirm your broker actually offers USDJPY, GBPJPY, EURJPY, BTCUSD and ETHUSD first, including any prefix or suffix it adds to the names.
2) Modelling: "Every tick based on real ticks". Lower-quality models cannot reproduce five instruments with ATR trailing exits.
3) Period: 2019.01.01 to 2026.06.28, Run-Mode Standard, $10,000 — exactly the published portfolio test. Reproduce that before changing anything.
4) Compare against the table: profit factor 1.48, 1,193 trades, win rate 33.19%, maximum equity drawdown 19.74%. A win rate near a third is the design, not a fault.
5) Now run the 2026.04 to 2026.07 window on all four tiers and look at what separates them: Defensive 11.4% drawdown against Ultra's 70.9%, and Ultra the only tier below profit factor 1.0. That window is why version 1.47 made Standard the default.
6) Then run it on a demo account for at least one month before any live money. Watch whether the JPY and crypto engines really do take turns — that staggering is the whole argument for holding five markets instead of one.
After that month, please leave a review, positive or negative, with the period, broker and Run-Mode you used. Honest data helps every other trader here more than any marketing.
