Professionnel en Finance et Commerce International avec une spécialisation en Gestion Financière. Développeur autodidacte en MQL5 et Python, spécialisé dans le trading algorithmique, la construction de portefeuilles multi-actifs et la gestion quantitative des risques.

Mon travail se concentre sur la conception, l'optimisation et la validation d'Expert Advisors qui fonctionnent comme un portefeuille coordonné plutôt que comme des stratégies isolées. J'applique l'analyse de corrélation, la cartographie de la couverture temporelle et la diversification par classe d'actifs pour construire des systèmes qui ne dépendent ni d'un seul instrument ni d'une seule approche.

Je gère actuellement des portefeuilles algorithmiques couvrant le forex, les indices, les métaux précieux, l'énergie et les actions américaines, opérant simultanément sur plusieurs sessions et horizons temporels.

Je partage mon expérience à travers des articles techniques et des outils open source au sein de cette communauté. Je suis convaincu que le passage de la « construction d'EAs individuels » à « l'ingénierie de portefeuilles » est ce qui sépare la pensée du trader particulier de celle de l'institutionnel, et ce principe guide tout ce que je publie ici.

Code publié Hidden Risk of Ruin Auditor
Reads a closed-position trade history (a CSV file, or one generated automatically from the current account's deal history by the companion RuinExport.mq5 script) and reports four independent risk fingerprints: volume escalation after a loss, overlapping same-direction exposure that averages into a worse price, payoff asymmetry between wins and losses, and a classical risk-of-ruin estimate at a stated risk per trade. The four scores combine into a single A-to-F grade with plain-language recommendations. If no CSV is found, the script generates a reproducible demonstration book automatically, so the report is visible on the first run.

Execution Cost and Slippage Sensitivity Analyzer

Backtests often understate spread, commission, and slippage. This MQL5 analyzer loads closing deals and simulates rising execution costs to measure robustness. It computes the breakeven cost per deal, the cushion over an assumed cost, the net profit and profit factor at that cost, and how many winners turn into losers, then summarizes the result with an A+ to F grade and targeted guidance.

Creating a Profit Concentration Analyzer in MQL5

Net profit and win rate tell you how much a strategy made, not how the result is distributed. This article builds a native MQL5 script that reads your closed trades and measures profit concentration: the top-N trade share, the Gini coefficient of the winners, an outlier-dependence stress test that removes the best few winners, and the largest day against a prop-firm consistency limit. It combines these into one A+ to F score with recommendations, running inside MetaTrader 5.

Code publié Portfolio Correlation and Margin Risk Calculator
Computes the historical Pearson correlation between any set of instruments and the combined margin your account would need to hold all of them at once, as a percentage of your equity. Runs natively in MetaTrader 5 with no external libraries, no Python, and no AI — set your symbol list and lot sizes as inputs and it reports the full matrix in the Experts tab and on the chart, refreshing on a timer.

Why the same trailing stop breaks the moment Gold changes character

I was in a forum thread today about trailing stops on XAUUSD, and it made me put into words something I've been building my whole approach around for a while: almost every trailing method traders compare — EMA cross, Chandelier, ATR multiples, swing-structure trails — gets judged on a single backtest run over one continuous chunk of history. The "best" multiplier or ladder step that wins that test isn't actually the best method. It's the method that happened to fit whatever mix of trend and chop was sitting in that sample.

The fix I use is simple to describe and annoying to implement properly: split the history into volatility regimes first (I use ATR percentile over a rolling window, expansion vs. compression), then optimize and validate each piece of logic separately per regime instead of once over the whole dataset. A structural trail wins clearly in expansion. In compression it just gets chopped up by noise, and something tighter does better there. Neither method is "the winner" — the regime decides which one applies.

That's the same principle I ended up building AbacuQuant around, just scaled up from one exit rule to an entire portfolio. Instead of one strategy tuned to look good on one backtest, the logic behind each strategy is walk-forward tested and optimized (genetic optimization, not a single curve-fit) across different market regimes and asset classes, forex, metals, indices, energy, ETFs, individual stocks — and then combined into a portfolio specifically to keep cross-asset correlation low (the current version sits under 0.4 correlation across most pairs in the book). The idea isn't "find the one strategy that beats the market." It's "find enough structurally different, regime-validated pieces that the portfolio doesn't fall apart when one regime ends," which is exactly the failure mode people are describing in that XAUUSD thread, just at the position level instead of the portfolio level.

It also runs entirely inside your own MetaTrader account nothing custodial, your funds never move to a third party and the newer version adds the drawdown/consistency rules prop firms check for, since that's become how a lot of people are actually trading it live.

If any of this is useful for how you're thinking about your own trailing logic or portfolio construction, happy to go deeper in the comments. And if you want to see what the regime-validated approach looks like applied across a full portfolio rather than one exit rule, it's at abacuquant.com.

Code publié Execution Cost Sensitivity Analyzer
Un script entièrement en MQL5 qui évalue la résistance de l'avantage d'une stratégie face aux coûts d'exécution. Il lit un fichier CSV contenant les dates, les bénéfices et les volumes des transactions clôturées, et modélise le coût de chaque transaction comme étant composé d'une partie fixe et d'une partie par lot. Il affiche le coût d’équilibre par transaction, la marge de sécurité (le multiple d’un coût réaliste supposé à partir duquel le bénéfice net atteint zéro), le bénéfice net et le facteur de profit réévalués au coût supposé, la proportion de transactions gagnantes que le coût transforme en transactions perdantes, ainsi qu’une note composite de robustesse face aux coûts (de A+ à F) accompagnée de recommandations. En l’absence de fichier, il génère un échantillon reproductible et l’analyse, de sorte que le résultat soit visible dès la première exécution. Pas de bibliothèques externes, pas de Python, pas d’IA.

Beyond Maximum Drawdown: Building a Drawdown DNA Analyzer in MQL5

Maximum drawdown is one number that hides what really matters: how often an equity curve declines, how long it stays below a previous peak, and how quickly it recovers. This article builds a native MQL5 tool that reconstructs the underwater curve, breaks it into individual drawdown episodes (depth, duration, recovery time), computes the Ulcer Index, Pain Index, and Recovery Factor, and combines them into a single resilience grade with practical recommendations. No external libraries, no Python, no AI.

Funded Trade Manager MT5 Most funded accounts are not lost to a bad strategy. They are lost to a single day that went too far: one oversized position, one revenge trade, one violated daily loss limit. Prop Firm Guard is a chart panel that applies the same limits your funding company applies, before the company does. What it does Tracks your daily loss limit and maximum drawdown in real time, using the same day-reset logic prop firms use (configurable server reset hour). Blocks any new trade

Code publié Profit Concentration Analyzer
Un script MQL5 natif qui mesure le degré de concentration des bénéfices d’une stratégie — c’est-à-dire s’il s’agit d’un avantage généralisé ou s’il repose sur quelques transactions chanceuses. Il lit un fichier CSV contenant les données par transaction (Date, Bénéfice) et indique la part du bénéfice net provenant des transactions les plus importantes, le coefficient de Gini des transactions gagnantes, un profil de concentration, un test de survie qui élimine les quelques meilleures transactions et recalcule le bénéfice net et le facteur de profit, ainsi que le plus gros gain journalier par rapport à une limite de régularité configurable, le tout combiné en un score de concentration et de régularité (de A+ à F) accompagné de recommandations. Si aucun fichier n’est trouvé, il génère un ensemble d’échantillons, ce qui permet de l’utiliser immédiatement. Pas de bibliothèques externes, pas de Python, pas d’IA. L’assistant ExportTrades.mq5 génère le fichier à partir de votre historique de transactions.

Code publié Drawdown DNA Analyzer
Un script MQL5 natif qui analyse la structure des baisses de capital d'un compte, et pas seulement le chiffre unique de la « baisse maximale ». Il lit une courbe de capital quotidienne (fichier CSV « Date,DailyPnL »), reconstitue la courbe « sous l'eau » et la divise en épisodes de baisse individuels avec leur ampleur, leur durée et leur temps de récupération. Il calcule ensuite l’indice d’ulcère, l’indice de douleur, le facteur de récupération et la durée passée en situation de perte, puis combine ces éléments en un score de résilience unique (de A+ à F) accompagné de recommandations, affichées dans l’onglet « Experts ». Aucune bibliothèque externe n’est requise ; si aucun fichier n’est trouvé, il génère une courbe d’exemple, ce qui lui permet de fonctionner dès son installation.

Building a Correlation-Aware Multi-EA Portfolio Scorer in MQL5

Most algo traders optimize Expert Advisors individually but never measure how they behave together on a single account. Correlated strategies amplify drawdowns instead of reducing them, and coverage gaps leave portfolios blind during entire trading sessions. This article builds a complete portfolio scorer in MQL5 that reads daily P&L from backtest CSV files, computes a full Pearson correlation matrix, maps trading activity by hour and weekday, evaluates asset class diversity, and outputs a composite grade from A+ to F. All source code is included; no external libraries are required.

Code publié Portfolio Scorer — Multi-EA Correlation and Coverage Analyzer
Portfolio Scorer is a standalone MQL5 script that evaluates the quality of a multi-EA portfolio across three critical dimensions that most algo traders overlook. The script reads daily profit and loss data from CSV files (one per Expert Advisor), computes a full Pearson correlation matrix between every strategy pair, maps trading activity by UTC hour and weekday, detects asset class diversity, and produces a weighted composite score with a letter grade from A+ to F. How it works: The tool runs in four sequential stages. First, the Data Loader reads and validates CSV files containing daily returns for each EA in the portfolio. Second, the Correlation Engine calculates the complete NxN Pearson correlation matrix and flags pairs that exceed a configurable threshold. Third, the Coverage Analyzer maps which hours and weekdays have active trading and identifies blind spots. Fourth, the Scoring Function combines all three dimensions into a single composite score using adjustable weights.

It was late 2022. I had spent six months building what I believed was the perfect Expert Advisor. The backtest was gorgeous: Profit Factor 3.2, maximum drawdown under 5%, a Sharpe ratio that would make a hedge fund manager jealous . I had optimized every parameter. Every indicator period...
