London Zoo

High-risk, high-reward M15 GBP-basket Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5.

London Zoo is built for traders who want one-chart automated GBP-basket execution with locked strategy logic, broker-side trade protection, campaign tracking, and simple named risk modes.

The EA runs from one chart, scans the configured GBP basket internally, waits for completed M15 candle conditions, checks exposure and broker conditions, and manages trades with a fixed target and broker-side emergency stop.

Important: The exact signal recipe, timing logic, filters, exposure rules, target behavior, stop behavior, and campaign accounting are locked internally because changing them would change the tested behavior.

Named Modes

London Zoo uses three named modes:

• Capybara in Crocs
Default mode and the lowest built-in aggressiveness in this product.

• Lion's Gate
Middle mode, designed for higher growth with higher drawdown than Capybara in Crocs.

• Dungeon Dragon
Highest built-in aggressiveness, with the highest historical growth and highest historical drawdown among the three modes.

All three modes use the same underlying signal engine, the same GBP basket, the same 1.5R target, and the same broker-side emergency stop design.

The difference is built-in aggressiveness.

The Inputs tab and on-chart panel show mode names only. The internal sizing map is locked so users cannot accidentally create an untested risk configuration.

The selected mode is tracked as part of the campaign record. Campaign stats continue accumulating until the user hard-resets the campaign.

Hard reset and mode reset actions are blocked while EA-owned trades are open.

The chart panel shows campaign-local statistics:

• Status
• Mode
• Campaign Start
• Current Equity
• Peak Equity
• Campaign P/L
• Max DD
• Closed Trades
• Win Rate
• Expectancy
• Profit Factor
• Structure
• Breakout
• Retest
• Entry

Historical Research Record

The published headline research window for London Zoo is:

• Start: 2012-04-11
• End: 2026-06-01
• Effective length: approximately 14.13 years
• Timeframe: M15
• Symbol universe: configured seven-symbol GBP basket
• Cost stress used in research: 0.03R
• Target: 1.5R
• Emergency stop: 5R

This is not a 25-year backtest.

The reason is data integrity.

The configured GBP basket requires all symbols in the trading universe to have usable M15 history over the same period.

Earlier market history exists in fragments for some symbols and some terminal or broker profiles, but it is not a clean common all-symbol overlap for this exact basket.

For that reason, the sales page, screenshots, and public claims should use only the clean common validated window as the headline research record.

Disclaimer: Any older partial-history tests should be treated only as internal stress-test context, not as the official headline backtest.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Shared Trade-Sequence Metrics

The following metrics were calculated from the clean common validated window:

• Trades: 13,561
• Win rate: 81.2551%
• Expectancy: +0.364135R/trade
• Profit factor: 1.4376
• Trades/day: 2.6271
• Average hold: 1.5836 hours
• Worst trade: -5.03R

Trade Frequency and Exposure Note

This EA scans a multi-symbol basket internally, but it does not try to stack multiple trades on the same currency exposure at the same time.

The max-open-trades rule is a safety ceiling, not a promise that the EA will always hold multiple trades at once. The strategy also uses a no-shared-currency exposure rule. That means if one basket trade is already open, another setup using the same core currency may be blocked until the first trade closes.

This is intentional and matches the historical research logic. The average trades-per-day of 2.6271 refers to accepted trades over time, not the number of positions held simultaneously. Multiple trades can still occur in the same day if earlier trades close and later valid setups appear, but the EA is designed to avoid overlapping exposure inside the same currency basket.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Demo Backtest Guidance

Attach the EA to any chart in the MT5 Strategy Tester.

The selected chart is only the host chart. The EA scans its configured GBP basket internally.

Use default settings first.

For a clean comparison with the published research record:

• Use MT5 Strategy Tester on the broker or data source intended for trading.
• Use the clean research date range: 2012-04-11 to 2026-06-01.
• Use M15-quality history for every configured basket symbol.
• Use default EA settings first.
• Do not present older partial-history runs as the headline result.

If testing from dates earlier than 2012-04-11, results may depend heavily on missing or uneven symbol history.

Treat those tests as stress checks only.

Disclaimer

London Zoo is not a low-risk EA.

It uses leveraged trading and a broker-side emergency stop that is wider than the profit target.

A fully stopped trade can be materially larger than one target win.

Multiple losses, abnormal spreads, slippage, gaps, broker execution delay, rejected orders, VPS outages, internet disconnection, and incorrect setup can cause substantial drawdown or account loss.

Historical and simulated performance does not guarantee future results.

Backtests are not live trading records.

By purchasing, installing, testing, or using this EA, the user accepts full responsibility for all trading results, account losses, broker conditions, execution quality, and operational decisions.

Demo test first.
