October 1.81% with a week to go. Over the past two years, the climb has been tough but useful. I’ve continued refining both my trading systems and my own discipline, and the results are beginning to show with new client deposits.
I’ve recently paused withdrawals to let equity growth run its course. Even though AUDCHF dipped back below 0.52, my equity position is again trending toward the upper end of its recent range. With the newly developed EAs — built on my own strategy and enhanced through AI — I expect the performance curve to strengthen.
Client capital now represents around 15% of what it was in the early days, and I want to acknowledge those clients for their quiet confidence. We’re on this journey together — a second Ironman of sorts — and I remain committed to rewarding that trust.
When AUDCHF inevitably closes, I anticipate equity should rise by roughly another 15%. My next personal milestone remains €100,000 in Blackwave Pacific (around $10,000 in Blackwave California) — the point where compounding really begins to take over. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

A client I met at a birthday party last week smiled and said, “I notice my balance is creeping higher.”
That, in essence, sums up the current tone of trading — steady, deliberate progress.
We’re sitting at +1% for the month with two full trading weeks still ahead, and +22.07% for the year with roughly ten weeks to run. In fund management terms, that’s a decent showing — consistent, measured growth without drama.
In a year when the S&P 500 has delivered such eye-catching returns, it’s easy to forget that foreign exchange is not designed to follow equity cycles. It’s an entirely different ecosystem — a place where capital works independently of stocks, bonds, or real estate. That’s precisely why a Blackwave managed account can complement a well-diversified portfolio rather than compete with it.
And as the song says, “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas.”
By the time it arrives, it should also be beginning to look a lot like >25%.

Good afternoon. Here’s our usual update. As we move into mid-October, performance stands at +0.45% for the month and +21.43% cash growth year-to-date. Equity is continuing to climb as well.
This is now year three of Blackwave Pacific Hedged and year nine of Blackwave California — hard to believe how far both have come.
During the week, AUDCHF made another push up to 0.53, though we had a bit of Trump-related volatility on Friday around the China sanctions news — so, whatever. I also closed some AUDNZD positions before the weekend, but I’m looking to get back in next week if conditions line up.
The EAs are running perfectly, and as always, you can watch them trade live for free on the MT5 app.
On my end, I’m aiming to build the balance of Blackwave Pacific Hedged up to €100,000, mainly by easing off withdrawals (or stopping them entirely). They say the first €100K is the hardest. That’s just my own plan — clients can continue to add or withdraw funds as they wish. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

Blackwave’s trading strategy has continued to demonstrate strong consistency and disciplined risk management throughout 2025, achieving an overall +65.18% gain to date with an average monthly return of 2.36%. We are at 21% so far for 2025 so it would be reasonable to forecast 25-28% for the year. The approach has maintained stable equity growth and effective drawdown control, supported by a 79% win rate and over €25,000 in net profit. These results reflect a data-driven, institutionally inspired but a patient methodology designed for sustainable long-term performance and capital preservation.
Obviously the new EA's add an element of further progress both in terms of discipline and consistency. I don't believe for one moment that the EA's are the "holy grail" and neither should you. However I have been beating the "living sh*t" out of them in terms of testing, back testing, peer reviewing them, second guessing them and they can take a beating.
If you’d like to see that discipline in action, you can join the free Blackwave demo account. Watch trades being opened, managed, and closed in real time — full transparency, real data, and no marketing fluff. It’s the best way to see exactly how the system performs under live conditions. https://blackwave-forextrader.com/free-demo-account/

Good evening. Long story cut short this is us. Almost 21% so far this year and almost 65% total gain. It's okay. If it's too good you would want to be suspicious.
Our automated positions are running exactly as expected, both in live trading and in back testing. As part of automating the bot messages to Telegram and X, I re-ran full tests on the GBPUSD and CHFJPY EAs and they proved to be remarkably robust. I ran them from January 2010 right up to last Friday — just think what they had to survive over that 15-year stretch: Gulf Wars, volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, Covid-19 and Brexit, Trump 1 and Trump 2, the Ukraine war, to name just a few. Covid, as it turned out, was straightforward enough, but the Central Bank scramble to rein in inflation afterwards was a nightmare, as you’ll remember.
The process of developing these EAs seemed simple at first — just a conversation about my strategy that went on for two days before I even asked for a line of code. That project is now several months old, and what has come out of it is code that is extremely powerful, robust and, frankly, long overdue. People have advised me to do this before and I resisted, but now that I have, I can’t believe it took me this long.
I view these EAs almost like individual traders, with me as Head of the Desk watching over their shoulders. There will always be human oversight. I’m genuinely enthusiastic about the whole project of automating my manual strategy, and I strongly encourage anyone with an intellectual interest in trading to download the MT5 app, grab the investor password from my website, and watch this thing trade in and out for yourself right here; https://blackwave-forextrader.com/free-demo-account/
A few of you have written off Blackwave over the last two years, but going back to my triathlons, I don’t give up easily. I believe this is only the beginning of Chapter 2. There’s room for a company that not only seeks client money but also commits its own capital to the very same strategy. In addition to the regulated banks and brokers we already use, I can see Blackwave itself being regulated in Malta or Cyprus in the near future.
The clearest benefit to anyone looking in from the outside is the managed account. It’s up 21% so far this year, and that performance is being delivered with full transparency — every trade visible, every entry and exit accounted for and myfxbook statistics made publicly available. To my mind, that combination of automation, oversight, and proven results is a compelling proposition for anyone considering an investment. Thanks everyone. By this time next week we'll have a fuller picture of September.

Good evening. I'm back from the pool 😊. 1.08% with a week and a bit to go. Hopefully above 2% for the month and nicely above 60% absolute gain for the account. Steady as she goes while we wait for the AUDCHF.
Next week should see my social media begin to automate more too. Trade updates will be automatic on X and here in Telegram. You could call me a signal provider if you want but it's free. The reason I think it should be free is that it's very difficult to be awake 24/5 to receive my trades and act accordingly. Also the notifications don't give any advice about your position size and as WE ALL KNOW in this channel, position size is a main part of risk control.
However if you consider these notifications in addition to the already FREE access to watch the trading live on the MT5 app I think it is a powerful statement of confidence in the AI developed version of my manual swing trading strategy. 1) You see the notifications within seconds both on Telegram and on X/Twitter. 2) You can watch them trading live in the MT5 app too and right here https://blackwave-forextrader.com/free-demo-account/
Then and only then when you get a bit of confidence you can open an account at Blackwell Global and put your new "live" details into the MT5 app and watch it trade there too, except this time it's your real money trading. To be honest from my old days working for big financial services firms I think this ticks a few "Code of Ethics" boxes. When do you get this much visibility signing up for any product at your local broker or bank? But hey, it's supposed to be a salesy thing primarily but I suggest to you it's a code of ethics thing as a side-effect. Enjoy the weekend and thank already to the new clients this week.

This gives an absolute gain of 60% and YTD 20.41%. It all adds up. I was hoping to see my EA's execute some GBPUSD or CHFJPY trades last week but not much doing because the set up was not perfect (though close at times). https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

0.5% for the first week of September and 20.15% Year-To-Date. What is under the hood of this EA is exciting. While we still wait for the AUDCHF positions we are in and out of GBPUSD like a caffeinated squirrel collecting nuts for the winter. 😊 https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

I am pleased with the performance of the Intraday EA. RSI 72/28 means you don't catch every H1 swing but it also makes the drawdown slightly lower when you do because your first entry is "better". I was right about chairman Powell's speech, We went from quiet to rapid movements very quickly and the EA actually entered a GBPUSD position, got to it's TP in seconds, closed the position, and then re-entered (as RSI was still above 72). So we go into the weekend carrying a few Cable positions. Those in the managed accounts are seeing this for the first time since I traded this in my own account first (testing on myself first). GBPUSD is naturally a bigger mover than EURGBP so you should see more trades.
AUDCHF is disappointing to be honest. I know it is a swing trading timeframe but this feels more like buy and hold. We still get a very decent positive SWAP of course but I'd rather be out. That said it will come good and I definitely have the patience. Average entry is circa 0.5487 but in reality we would be profitable sooner than that with the positive SWAPS accumulated.
It's my birthday on Monday. It will be the 29th anniversary of my 21st birthday (50). I still remember my actual 21st. I flew to New York by myself and spent the week wandering around Manhattan and taking in the sights. First time on a plane! First time in America, first time abroad! I didn't have nearly enough money so I stayed at the Y,M.C.A and shared a room with a guy from Tipperary that I met in the queue at the reception desk who was only over to renew his Green Card. I spent many of my days in the MET museum and my evenings in Mullen's Bar on 23rd street talking to the locals. Barman was called Jim and he knew me when I returned years later. It's gone now, I think it's a bike shop, or at least it was a few years ago. New York is always changing but that trip began my life long love of that crazy city and it's palpable energy. It's always inspired me.
So if you look at the image above (looks like Manhattan) we're at 1.57% capital growth for August with a week to go. 20% YTD. A good alternative investment if you've already got a pension, real estate or other investments too. These EA's are only going to get better. I have already "peer reviewed" them with the recently released ChatGPT 5 and it had nothing meaningful to add…a good sign.

Good morning. I am keen to get out of my AUDCHF now because I can see the value the H1 version of my strategy is bringing to the table. I think the DD is well under control but it would be nice to get to cash.
I have spent my life thinking about and working in financial markets and I still know fuck all - but I seem to know lots of guys who know far less than me but apparently have it all figured out from their Mom's bedroom and my nine years as a qualified stockbroker and fucking five years working in Treasury, holding companies, Airbnb's bought with the profits etc etc mean nothing. One thing I will tell you for SURE is this. Position size is a fucking amazing way to control risk and that is what has gotten me out of jail so many times over the years. If you can control the downside, the upside takes care of itself . These two EA's will have lower position sizes than my manual version of Blackwave Pacific but August might yet beat January, February, March and June based only on Blackwave Intrday's H1 strategy. What has yet to kick into the game to is Blackwave Overwatch's swing strategy too (because of my AUDCHF positions) but once my remaining manual basket of trades close it will be live and alive in the managed accounts. Intraday will do the heavy lifting to get us close to orbit and then Overwatch's afterburners kick in. I would encourage you to go to the demo page, download the app and take a look at the trading on your phone. Thanks guys 👀👀 https://blackwave-forextrader.com/free-demo-account/

Good morning. So you can thank the 0.65% in week one of August to the newly created EA Blackwave Intraday. I have spent the last few weeks going really deep into the strategy blah blah blah but hopefully we are seeing the fruits of it already. Since it was created a few weeks ago (version 4.5) I am already on version 4.8 and the latest version is using ATR basically everywhere. ATR is used from spacing between entries, to adjust TP in real time so the grid is essentially breathing in sync with the market. ATR will be used in a flash crash to hedge. Intraday is taking MY strategy learned from GOLDSTAR in 2014 and refined by me over a decade and deploying it in a H1 timeframe. I have modelled it to aim for circa 40% per year. That’s not easy to do and I don’t make guarantees here but it’s built and peer reviewed by multiple Artificial Intelligence Platforms. What is definitely new in terms of complete sophistication is “reverse ladder hedging”. which occurs in milliseconds.
This morning I took it and peer reviewed it with the upgraded ChatGPT 5 and it actually didn’t have any meaningful upgrade suggestions apart from increase position size a little but I think I won’t do that for now.
So what’s coming next is exciting too. To compliment the H1 strategy I have built Blackwave Overwatch, the same strategy on a swing trading time frame with adjustments to various parameters (total position, position size and more..). Once we get out of our AUDCHF I can deploy this. If that’s not interesting enough for you consider this thought….I have already built a “Blackwave Overwatch AUDNZD” which is to say it is specifically designed for that pair only. It won’t be that difficult in future to tailor an EA to the exact pair I am going to trade before the position is opened.
Trading both combined should get us closer to 40% per year (no guarantees). I absolutely know you can find other traders out there who will get you 40% per month but I am not competing with those guys. My goal is to provide a compliment to investors who might already have 1. A pension 2. Property Investments 3. Other investments and give them the option to spread that investment into the forex market too.
Finally finally I have created a “regulation” page for the website to give you an idea of how all this works from a legal standpoint. https://blackwave-forextrader.com/blackwave-regulation/

July Progress: Blackwave Pacific +3.18%, California (lower risk) +2.14%.
I LOVED automating my strategy. Pouring my trading soul into AI—confessing my strengths, flaws, even my GBPCHF disaster from 2022—felt therapeutic. Weeks of refining, and now EURGBP H1 trades run on OpenAI’s code, cross-checked by DeepSeek and MistralAI. It's already profitable.
This isn’t a pivot—it’s a deeper dive. The same philosophy I learned from "Goldstar" in 2014, now more graceful in hedging, stronger against surprises. Still manual swings (like our winning USDSGD), but evolving.
For now, it’s live in Pacific. Want in? Take a punt on me—join the manged account. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

Trading Strategy Development Update
I have recently concentrated on enhancing algorithmic trading performance through rigorous backtesting and AI-assisted optimisation. I sat down with several EA's for days.
Current Market Observations:
Summer markets remain quiet, though the dollar displayed tentative strength last week.
USDSGD presents a compelling opportunity: deeply oversold conditions suggest upside potential, with 1.30 as a realistic near-term target. Given the technical setup, we are maintaining our exposure and prioritising strategic gains over premature profit-taking. I won't be snatching at a small profit.
Forward Focus:
Concluding July’s performance with a focus on being greedy
Preparing to scale the refined strategy in August, leveraging AI-optimised risk parameters to balance conviction with capital preservation.
This work reflects months of disciplined refinement – combining quantitative precision with hard-earned trading principles. This is me sounding excited.

Weekly Market Update - Key Pair AnalysisAUDCHF: Slow but Steady GainsThursday’s 75-pip bullish candle lifted the pair to 0.5250, but weekend momentum faded.
The accumulated positive swaps continue to bolster returns, acting as a "hidden dividend" until trade closure.
USDSGD: Watching 1.2800The pair is retesting 1.2800—now official resistance, though price action lacks conviction.
Seasonal liquidity dips may explain the sluggishness, but our counter-trend stance stays valid.
Broader Market ContextEURUSD and others are stuck in tight ranges this last week, with even higher timeframes offering few extremes. Take the S&P500 too, very calm at all time highs.
This aligns with typical mid-summer trading: lighter volumes and reduced directional urgency. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

Broader Market ContextEURUSD and others are stuck in tight ranges this last week, with even higher timeframes offering few extremes. Take the S&P500 too, very calm at all time highs.
This aligns with typical mid-summer trading: lighter volumes and reduced directional urgency. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

Weekly Market Update – Steady Progress Amid Quiet Markets
As we are at the mid-year mark, I’d like to take a moment to reflect. While this week has been subdued—particularly with US markets closed for Independence Day—our strategy remains firmly on track.
Year-to-Date Outperformance
Despite the recent slow pace, our capital growth for the first six months stands at 13.87%, ahead of the S&P 500’s returns over the same period. This reinforces the resilience of our approach, even in quieter market conditions.
Current Positions
USDSGD: Holding steady in our counter-trend longs. A break above key levels could accelerate gains.
AUDCHF: Patience remains key, but the accumulated swaps and controlled drawdown keep the risk/reward favourable.
Looking Ahead
With US participants returning next week, I expect liquidity to normalise. My focus remains on capital preservation and strategic opportunities—positioning us well for the second half of the year. Minimum balance is now €10,000.
Enjoy the rest of your week. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

Weekly Market Update: USDSGD: We remain in our long positions, with the market having dipped below the September 2024 low of 1.2788—likely triggering some short positions. A move back above 1.28 could force these shorts to cover, reinforcing our counter-trend strategy. Given the market’s oversold conditions, we maintain our stance.
AUDCHF: Our long positions continue, though the market remains weak and slow-moving. Upside appears limited to 0.58, but a move to this level would place all positions in profit. We are near full capacity in this trade, with drawdown well controlled. While June has not been highly profitable, the risk management remains sound.
Reminder: Minimum Balance Update: As previously communicated, the minimum account balance for new clients will increase to €10,000 effective Tuesday, 1st July. https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

Weekly Performance Update
USDSGDThe market remains oversold. After testing last week’s high of 1.2895, it is finishing the week near 1.2870. Given the sustained oversold conditions, a measured move toward 1.30 appears realistic.
AUDCHFAUDCHF is slow. The positive swaps accumulating in our account are now substantial, adding approximately 1% in incremental profit while also lowering our average entry price. Patience remains key with this trade—something I have no issue maintaining.
USDCADOur legacy USDCAD positions are still fluctuating. Today, I closed one of the three positions. If USDCAD resumes its upward move, that would be ideal; however, if it retraces lower, I will look to re-add the final third position.
A quick reminder that July 1st marks the increase in the minimum balance for new clients from €5,000 to €10,000. This adjustment reflects the seriousness with which I approach trading and ensures that new clients share the same level of commitment.
Wishing everyone a pleasant weekend. Https://www.blackwave-forextrader.com

My performance for June has been impacted by the risk-sensitive movements in AUD/CHF, compounded by last night’s Israeli military action. I expanded the grid but later closed the final position intraday. While I may re-enter if price retests the lows, we’re now approaching the weekend, and I believe it’s prudent to book profits and wait for liquidity to return rather than carry an enlarged grid over the break.
Even if the opportunity to re-add at the lows passes, the current grid remains well-structured, and as you know, the positive swaps continue to accumulate.
On a separate note, USD/SGD has rebounded from its lows but continues to find support. A retest of the 1.3150 area in the coming sessions wouldn’t be surprising—and if it occurs, it would be worth several hundred pips. Don't take my word for it of course. Trust - but verify!
