Cupella Gold Triad MT5

CUPELLA GOLD TRIAD is an Expert Advisor for XAUUSD that combines three independent trading engines in one account. Each engine works on a different timeframe and follows its own entry conditions. The purpose of combining them is not to increase the number of simultaneous trades, but to reduce dependence on a single type of gold market.

Every position is opened with a hard stop loss. Position size is calculated from account equity and stop distance, so a wider stop produces a smaller position. CUPELLA does not use grid, martingale or averaging down, and it does not increase exposure to recover a loss.

AT A GLANCE

These figures are historical MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester results, not live trading results. They were measured with the Balanced profile, real tick modelling, historical spread and a 7 USD round-turn commission per lot.

WHY THREE ENGINES

The three engines operate on different clocks. One may hold a position for several days, one works within the trading day, and the fastest usually holds for hours. Their monthly result correlations over the measured period were +0.004, -0.001 and +0.222. This means their historical results were largely independent rather than moving together.

In separate nine-year tests, the engines ended at 35,260 USD, 13,820 USD and 23,198 USD from the same 10,000 USD starting balance. Running all three together ended at 126,198 USD with an 18.65% maximum measured drawdown. These are historical simulations and the same relationship is not guaranteed in future market conditions.

WHO IT IS DESIGNED FOR

CUPELLA is designed for users who want a rules-based gold EA with defined risk per trade, limited strategy inputs and a clear on-chart panel. It requires an XAUUSD trading environment with low execution costs.

The 2,500 USD minimum was determined by testing the effect of the broker's minimum lot size. Below that level, the smallest permitted lot can be larger than the position requested by the risk calculation.

RISK PROFILES AND ALLOCATED CAPITAL

Three risk profiles are available: Conservative, Balanced and Dynamic. Balanced is the default and is the profile used for every headline result on this page. The selected profile controls position sizing; it does not change the underlying entry and exit rules.

The Allocated capital input lets CUPELLA work with only part of a larger account. For example, on a 50,000 USD account you can enter 10000 and have the EA size its positions from that allocation. A value of 0 uses the full account balance.

The allocation follows CUPELLA's own gains and losses while excluding deposits, withdrawals and activity from other systems. If the allocation is changed, the panel starts a new percentage-tracking period; trade history remains unchanged. Change the allocation when no CUPELLA position is open.

SETUP AND CONTROL PANEL

Attach CUPELLA to one XAUUSD chart, select a risk profile and enable Algo Trading. One chart is enough for all three engines. The single-instance lock prevents a second copy from duplicating CUPELLA orders on the same account.

The panel is available in English and Turkish and shows:

• Account equity and allocated capital
• Monthly and annual return
• Current and maximum drawdown
• Open positions and recently closed trades
• Risk profile and EA operating state
• Built-in help pages

The strategy itself has no tuning inputs. User controls are limited to risk level, allocated capital, panel language, panel corner and panel visibility.

HOW TO REPRODUCE THE PUBLISHED TEST

Use the following settings to compare the product on the same basis as the published report:

Spread was taken from the historical tick stream and 7 USD round-turn commission per lot was applied. A different broker provides its own price feed, session data, spread and contract settings, so its figures will naturally differ from this reference.

THE FULL PERIOD, INCLUDING WEAKER YEARS

Eight of the nine calendar years were positive in this simulation. Returns were not evenly distributed: 2018 was negative, while 2021 and 2023 were positive but comparatively quiet. The measured 2.70% average monthly return is a full-period average, not a monthly target.

BENCHMARK CONTEXT

Gold rose substantially during the measured period, so CUPELLA was also compared with buying and holding gold over the same dates. Financing costs were included in the leveraged buy-and-hold calculation.

This is historical benchmark context, not a prediction. Its purpose is to show what the strategy added during the same period rather than attributing the result only to rising gold prices.

DEVELOPMENT AND VERIFICATION

The three engines were researched separately and combined after their historical monthly results showed low correlation. The completed portfolio was then checked with out-of-sample periods, shuffled and block-shuffled controls, delayed-entry tests, repeated deterministic runs, cost sensitivity tests, random start dates and market-regime breakdowns.

The shipping build was measured directly rather than assuming that a development build and the compiled Market file behave identically. Historical testing can reduce avoidable design errors, but it cannot guarantee future performance.

PRICING CAMPAIGN

CUPELLA uses a license-based price campaign. The permanent-license price increases as the number of licenses sold reaches the next tier:

The price displayed by MQL5 at the time of purchase is the applicable price. A permanent license includes future product updates without a recurring subscription fee.
