High-risk, high-reward M15 USD-basket Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5.
The Thugs of New York is built for traders who want one-chart automated USD-basket execution with locked strategy logic, broker-side trade protection, campaign tracking, and simple named modes.
The EA runs from one chart, scans the configured USD basket internally, waits for completed M15 candle conditions, checks exposure and broker conditions, and manages trades with a fixed target, broker-side emergency stop, and strict same-day closure before broker rollover.
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.

Three Built-In Modes
The Thugs of New York includes three named modes.
The Forty Thieves
Lowest built-in aggressiveness in this product.
The Five Points Gang
Middle mode, designed for higher historical growth with higher historical drawdown than The Forty Thieves.
The Wall St. IB
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 basket, the same 1.5R target, the same broker-side emergency stop design, and the same pre-rollover flat rule.
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 statistics 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

Broker And Data Source Disclosure
Primary broker-overlap validation was run on IC Markets MT5 historical data from 2022-06-09 to 2026-05-29.
Extended-history stress testing used Dukascopy BID M15 historical data from 2012-04-11 to 2026-06-01.
The overlapping period showed close agreement between the production broker-style result and the extended stress reference, but live results may vary by broker, spread, commission, slippage, execution quality, symbol naming, server time, margin rules, and data quality.

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 1.6427 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 USD 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.
• Make sure M15-quality history is available for every configured basket symbol.
• Use default EA settings first.
• Label the broker or data source used for the result.
If testing with a different broker, results may differ because of server time, spread, commission, slippage, symbol suffixes, stop levels, contract size, margin rules, or missing historical data.

Disclaimer
The Thugs of New York 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, incorrect setup, or poor broker conditions 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.
