Trader and algorithmic developer focused on risk-managed automation for the Forex market. I build Expert Advisors that prioritize capital protection and survivability over hype — real strategies, transparent results, and live monitoring.

My flagship is SurfBot, a bidirectional mean-reversion grid with portfolio-level exposure control and an optional trend hedge. Everything I publish runs on real accounts with public signals, so you can verify performance before you buy.

I value clear documentation and responsive support. Questions are always welcome — reach out anytime.

Grid Survival Ruler answers one question that decides whether a grid survives: how far can price move against you before the last layer is filled, and how often has THIS pair actually moved that far? Enter your spacing (% of price) and your maximum layers. The indicator draws the ladder on the chart, marks the last layer in red (book full), and shows the total adverse move in % and in price, plus how many average daily ATRs it represents. Then it tests that distance against the pair's own D1

Spacing Audit measures the grid spacing your EA REALLY uses, from its own closed trades, not from its inputs and not from the gaps between open layers. Why: I spent a week believing my grid used ATR-based spacing because UseATR was true. It did not. Every pair sat on the minimum-spacing floor, 2.8x to 5.1x tighter than intended, and the book kept clogging. The inputs said one thing; 1,120 closed trades said another. The method: in a grid where each layer carries a take-profit one spacing away

Опубликовал код Contract Sizer: ladder, floor and a breaker that survives a deposit
Три механизма защиты при определении размера позиции, которые действуют по-разному; именно их путаница приводит к тому, что так много счетов оказываются полностью обнуленными: - «лестница»: один контракт на каждые X баланса, всегда применяется в качестве верхнего предела (CAP), даже при ручном определении размера лота; - floor: при балансе ниже минимального капитала торговля не ведётся; требуется новый депозит; - breaker: срабатывает при падении на X% ниже пикового значения, независимо от размера счёта, и не сбрасывается автоматически. Что решает эта библиотека, а почти ни одна другая — депозит не является прибылью, а вывод средств — убытком. Брейкер измеряет падение относительно пикового значения баланса. Без специальной обработки пополнение счёта, произведённое ВО ВРЕМЯ просадки, одновременно повышает баланс и пиковое значение, и защита перестаёт фиксировать падение именно в тот момент, когда это было бы полезно. Здесь пополнения и снятия средств смещают пиковое значение на одинаковую величину. Пиковое значение сохраняется в файле: защитный механизм, который забывает пиковое значение при перезапуске терминала, не является защитным механизмом. Демо-версия моделирует внесение средств в момент достижения дна просадки. Запустите её с включенным и выключенным внесением средств и сравните столбец «падение».

Опубликовал код Safe Logger: why your log lines vanish while FileOpen keeps returning success
Four EAs writing to the same file, all with FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE, FileSeek(SEEK_END), FileWrite, FileClose. Looks correct. Every FileOpen returns success. No error in the log. And the lines vanish. Reason: FILE_SHARE_WRITE lets all four open at the same time. All four call FileSeek(SEEK_END) and get THE SAME offset, because none has written yet. All four write at the same position. Whoever closes last wins. Three lines vanish silently. In my case: 12 events expected, 8 in the file. The fix is to open EXCLUSIVELY (no FILE_SHARE_WRITE) and retry while another EA holds the file. And to shout in the log when the retries run out: a log that fails silently is worse than no log at all, because you trust it. The demo script reproduces both modes. To see the loss, drag it onto four charts at the same time with safe mode off and count the lines in the CSV. On a single chart the defect does not show up - which is why it passes in testing and breaks in production.

Опубликовал код Clock Diagnostic: TimeCurrent() freezes and steps backwards
TimeCurrent() is not a clock. It is the stamp of the LAST TICK. Two consequences break robots in production: 1. It freezes. With no tick it does not move: illiquid instrument, end of session, unstable connection - and any rule based on it stops with it. 2. It steps backwards: on a symbol switch, a reconnection or a tick from another instrument, the value can go back. The case that cost me a whole protection: I compared the date of a daily decision with TimeCurrent() to reject an expired one. The server clock stepped back to the previous day, the comparison matched, and four EAs accepted YESTERDAY's decision as valid. The gate that should have failed closed failed open - without a single error in the log. Rule: TimeLocal() for timestamps, dates, day changes, expiry - all that must always move forward; TimeCurrent() for session hours and market data. The script measures the divergence in your environment and reports both symptoms live. Run it with the market closed.

Опубликовал код Trade Excursion Report: MFE and MAE of every closed trade, to CSV
Экспортирует по одной строке CSV на каждую закрытую сделку с данными, которых нет в выписке: максимальная нереализованная прибыль по сделке (MFE), максимальный нереализованный убыток, который удалось пережить (MAE), какая доля от MFE была фактически сохранена, сколько баров охватила сделка и как долго она удерживалась. Те же показатели, что и у индикатора Trade Excursion, только записываются в файл, а не отображаются на графике, поскольку эти данные позволяют задать вопросы, на которые график ответить не может: зависит ли коэффициент удержания от времени входа в сделку? Являются ли сделки, которые я закрываю раньше срока, теми, которые я удерживаю дольше всего? Достигают ли убыточные сделки по понедельникам другого значения MAE, чем по пятницам? Ответы на эти вопросы можно получить с помощью одной сводной таблицы, как только файл CSV будет готов. Результаты выводятся с разделителем «точка с запятой» и строкой заголовка в формате MQL5\Files; файл открывается в любой программе для работы с таблицами. Ограничение измерения: отклонения рассчитываются на основе максимумов и минимумов баров на выбранном таймфрейме; траектория движения внутри бара неизвестна. Столбец «бары» отражает разрешение, полученное для каждой сделки, а в сводке сделки, заключенные в пределах одного бара, учитываются отдельно, а не усредняются.

Опубликовал код Trade Excursion: how much of each winner you actually kept (MFE/MAE from your own history)
Your statement tells you what you KEPT. It does not tell you what you HAD. This indicator reads your own closed trades from the account history and draws, for each one, the full range it travelled: the best unrealised profit it ever showed (MFE) and the worst unrealised loss it survived (MAE). The gap between what a trade showed and what it paid is where two common problems hide, and neither is visible in a balance curve: winners closing far below their best point (the exit leaves money behind), and losers whose worst excursion barely passed the stop (the stop sits inside the noise). The number to look at is the CAPTURE RATIO: of the profit a winner showed at its best, how much did you take home? 90% says the exits are well placed; 30% says the market kept offering and the exit kept refusing. Limit, stated up front: excursions come from the bars each trade spanned, on the chart timeframe; the path inside a bar is unknown. Predicts nothing; measures trades that already happened.

Опубликовал код Decision Watchdog: refuse yesterday's decision, fail closed, log once
A daily process writes "today's decision" (which strategy runs, or FLAT) to a file the EAs read at the open. One day the writer did not run. The EAs read yesterday's file, compared its date with TimeCurrent() - the server clock, which had stepped back to the previous day overnight - saw a match, and traded all morning on a 24-hour-old decision. No error anywhere. Two rules, both in this class: 1) staleness is judged against TimeLocal(), which always moves forward; TimeCurrent() is the last tick's stamp - it freezes without ticks and can step back on reconnect. 2) When in doubt the answer is FLAT: missing file, bad date, wrong day, empty line - every failure path returns "do nothing", and each is logged ONCE per state change, not on every tick and not never. File format: line 1 = ISO date, line 2 = decision string. The demo writes a fresh, a stale, a malformed, an empty and a missing file, and shows that only the first is allowed to trade.

Опубликовал код Exposure Cap: one position limit per symbol across all your EAs
Four EAs on the same symbol, each one honest on its own: each checks "do I have a position?" with its own magic number, sees none, and enters. On a demo account this reached 22 contracts on a symbol meant to carry 1, and a watchdog had to close 16 positions in one morning. The cap belongs at the door, not after the fact. ExposureCap::Allowed(symbol, lots, cap) sums the volume of every open position on the symbol - all magic numbers, manual trades included - and refuses the order BEFORE it is sent when it would breach the cap. One log line with the three numbers (held, requested, cap) says why. Deliberately simple: gross exposure, no netting of longs against shorts, no per-EA quota. It is a check, not a lock: two EAs deciding on the same tick can both pass; in practice EAs on different charts decide on different ticks. The demo script prints held / cap / room for the current symbol and shows the refusal line. Nothing is traded.

Опубликовал код Server Time Offset: the three clocks in MQL5 and how timestamps shift on export
A datetime in MQL5 is seconds since 1970 - but server time (TimeCurrent, bar times, deal times) is the broker's wall clock stored AS IF it were UTC. Export it to CSV, read it in Python or a spreadsheet with a "seconds since 1970 UTC" parser, and every timestamp shifts by the server's UTC offset. On a UTC-3 broker that is three hours: the daily bar dated 00:00 reads as 21:00 of the previous day, and "yesterday's session" silently becomes "today's, half formed". That happened to a morning report of mine before this script existed. The script prints TimeTradeServer, TimeCurrent, TimeGMT and TimeLocal, the three offsets between them, the tick lag, and this chart's last bar time in server time and in real UTC - then states the rule: export server timestamps as wall-clock text, or export the epoch together with the offset, and never let the consumer apply its own timezone.

SurfBot Radar is a free breakout and trend indicator for MetaTrader 5. It plots a Donchian channel (the highest high and lowest low of the last N bars), marks the first bar that breaks the channel, and confirms each breakout with flow — the net of directional volume over a recent window. Breakout + matching flow shows a clear BUY or SELL signal; a breakout without flow is flagged as "no confirmation". A graphical on-chart panel (placeable in any corner) shows the current state, the flow, the
