I build and optimize Expert Advisors (EAs) across MT4 and MT5, with additional experience on cTrader. Over 2 years, I've built 30+ working MT4 EAs, converted and tested strategies on MT5, and developed EAs on cTrader — including paid custom builds for private clients based on their own strategy - Версия: 12.11

Never End is not a martingale system. Despite the name, it never stacks losing positions or increases lot size after a loss. It's a disciplined, trend-and-level based system that takes one trade at a time, targets a 1:5 risk-to-reward ratio, and trades gold only.
Why Gold Only
Never End has been developed, tested, and traded exclusively on Gold (XAUUSD). No claims are made — and no settings are offered — for any other pair, because none have been backtested. Gold's volatility and trend behavior are what the entry logic and risk parameters are built around, and mixing in untested pairs would break that edge. If you're a gold trader, this EA was built for you.
Who It's For
- Long-term investors who want steady account growth without micromanaging every candle
- Patient traders comfortable waiting for high-quality setups instead of forcing trades
- Traders who cut winners short and want structure that lets a trade run to its full target
How It Works
Never End reads the prevailing trend on the Daily and 8-Hour charts and looks for key level/zone breakouts. Once a setup aligns across both timeframes, execution and trade management happen on the 15-Minute and 5-Minute charts — this is where entries are timed and risk is actively managed. The multi-timeframe check is hardcoded, which is why the EA doesn't fire constantly — it waits for alignment.
Trade structure:
- One position open at a time
- Risk-to-reward ratio of 1:5
- Position sizing at 2% risk per trade, with a 4.5% max daily drawdown stop
These two numbers work together: risking 2% per trade against a 4.5% daily loss limit means the EA naturally stops itself after roughly 2 trades on a losing day, occasionally 3 once broker slippage is factored in. This isn't a hardcoded trade cap — it's a byproduct of the risk management, which is exactly the point: the system protects your account by design, not by an arbitrary rule.
Backtest Results
Tested on XAUUSDm, M15, starting from a $1,000 deposit:
| Metric | Result |
|---|---|
| Total Net Profit | $15,489.88 |
| Profit Factor | 1.44 |
| Recovery Factor | 3.52 |
| Sharpe Ratio | 2.07 |
| Total Trades | 725 |
| Max Balance Drawdown | 25.83% |
| Max Equity Drawdown | 28.36% |
We believe in transparency: drawdown periods do occur, as with any active strategy. The 3.52 Recovery Factor reflects the EA's ability to recover and keep producing net growth over the full test period. A backtest video is available to verify these results in motion.

A Note on Risk
No trading system is risk-free, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Never End is built around risk-managed, rule-based entries rather than aggressive recovery tactics — but drawdown is a normal part of any real strategy, and the figures above are shared openly so you can make an informed decision.
