Portfolio Builder EA

Portfolio Builder EA runs a portfolio of channel-based strategies on a single EURUSD H1 chart. Instead of betting on one entry idea, it combines two complementary core systems - and lets you switch on up to three satellite systems - each fully isolated by its own magic number and sized automatically as a percent of balance.

CORE STRATEGY 1 - SWING BREAKOUT
Detects significant swing highs and lows and places pending stop orders at those levels. Positions are protected by a fixed stop loss and managed by a wide trailing stop that locks in trends. Pending orders expire automatically if the market moves away.

CORE STRATEGY 2 - DONCHIAN SCALPER
Tracks the highest-high / lowest-low channel and places a stop order at the channel edge facing away from price. A tight trailing stop converts channel breakouts into a stream of small, high-probability wins (about 90% winners in testing, with a maximum of one consecutive loss across both test periods).

SATELLITES (off by default)
A Stochastic mean-reversion scalper, an MA slope-flip system with a Bollinger volatility filter, and a Parabolic SAR flip system. Included for transparency and experimentation; the validated configuration keeps them disabled.

AUTOMATIC MONEY MANAGEMENT
Every strategy sizes positions automatically: you set the risk percent per trade, the EA computes the lot size from the stop distance, the broker contract specification and your balance - so position size grows and shrinks with the account. The sizing engine also respects the broker volume limits, free margin and trading sessions automatically.

TESTING METHODOLOGY (please read)
All development used "every tick based on real ticks" modeling. Parameters were optimized on 2024-2025 with the last 25% reserved as a forward window, then validated on data the optimizer never saw:

• 2023 (pre-sample year, Dukascopy real ticks): profitable
• 3-year window 2023-2025: high-growth compounding curve, max balance drawdown under 18%
• 2025-2026 (IC Markets feed with real spread, commission and swap): +70% in 17 months, about 306 trades

Backtest results are historical and do not guarantee future performance.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Symbol / timeframe: attach to a EURUSD H1 chart (the signal timeframe follows the chart by default; it can be fixed in the Advanced inputs)
• Account: hedging account, raw-spread / low-commission broker recommended
• Minimum deposit: 100 USD (auto-lots scale down to the broker minimum)
• Leverage: 1:100 or higher recommended for the default risk settings
• Run 24/5 on a VPS
• The default settings are the validated configuration - attach and go; a conservative half-risk set file is available on request

INPUTS - ORGANIZED FOR CLARITY
1. Money management (risk % per strategy) - at the top
2. Strategy on/off switches
3. Per-strategy entry/exit settings, each input explained in plain language
4. Advanced (magic numbers, signal timeframe, lot cap) - rarely need changing
