Artemis EA

The ARTEMIS EA is designed to trade long-only (buy positions only) on XAUUSD using the H1 timeframe.

Its entry logic combines three main filters:

• The Stochastic indicator must remain below the RSI for several consecutive candles (default: 9 bars). This is intended to detect prolonged weakness before a potential rebound.
• The DI- component of the ADX must be rising compared to the previous candle, confirming increasing bearish pressure beforehand.
• The previous candle's hour must be below the configured limit (default: before 04:00), restricting entries to specific market sessions.

When a valid signal appears:

• The EA opens a buy position.
• It automatically calculates the stop loss using ATR.
• The lot size is adjusted dynamically according to the selected account risk percentage.

The money management works like this:

• If you set the risk to 1.5%, the EA calculates how much money you are willing to lose on the trade.
• It then measures the distance between the entry price and the stop loss.
• Based on that distance, it calculates the proper lot size so that, if the stop loss is hit, the loss will be approximately 1.5% of the account balance.

The stop loss is ATR-based:

S L = E n t r y   P r i c e − ( A T R × M u l t i p l i e r ) SL = Entry\ Price - (ATR \times Multiplier) SL=Entry Price−(ATR×Multiplier)

By default, the take profit is disabled, but it can optionally be enabled using another ATR multiple.

The EA also includes a time-based exit rule:

• If a trade remains open for a specific number of candles (default: 18 bars), the EA closes the position automatically, even if neither stop loss nor take profit has been reached.

Main strengths of the system:

• Very low drawdown
• Dynamic risk management
• Fully automatic lot calculation
• Simple long-only logic
• Optimized specifically for gold on H1

According to your optimization results, ARTEMIS achieved strong stability with a low drawdown and a solid profit factor.
