Triple Trigger trades XAUUSD H1 breakouts of the 24, 48 and 72-hour high and low, with trailing exits and no fixed target. Fixed 0.01 lot, a stop loss on every order, no martingale, no averaging down. 2022.02-2026.09 real-tick backtest with default inputs: PF 1.21, max equity drawdown 22.8% on $3,000. Reproducible: same inputs, same period, your own tester.
What it does
On each completed H1 bar the EA reads the highest high and lowest low of the last 24, 48 and 72 hours. For each of the three windows it keeps a buy stop just above the high and a sell stop just below the low; when one side fills, the other side of that window is cancelled. Every order is sent with a stop loss of 0.28% of price. After entry the stop trails the price; there is no take profit. The schedule runs on UTC (TimeGMT): no new entries after 19:00 UTC on Friday, all positions closed at 23:00 UTC on Friday. There is no daily loss stop by default (version 1.10). Version 1.00 had a 5% daily-loss kill switch that stayed on until deleted by hand, so after one bad day it never traded again; 1.10 turns it off (Inp_DailyLossPct = 0) and clears a switch left by 1.00. If you set Inp_DailyLossPct above 0, the switch works as before and must be reset by deleting the global variable TT_KILL. The lot is fixed at 0.01: no averaging down, no martingale.

Requirements
- XAUUSD H1, one chart. Hedging account.
- Recommended deposit: $3,000 per 0.01 lot (the deposit used in the test above).
- A VPS running 24/5.
Risks
- Drawdown: the maximum equity drawdown in the test is $684, 22.8% of the $3,000 deposit, and $962 (32.1%) on the second broker. Drawdowns are deep relative to profit. Size accordingly; we consider 10% the comfortable ceiling.
- Losing runs: win rate 40.0%. Tight stops mean many small losses, and the profit has to come from the trades that trend. The longest losing streak in the test was 38 trades.
- Uneven years: see the table above. Years with a loss: 2022, 2023. 2025-2026 account for 92.4% of the net profit.
- Rollover spreads: spreads that widen around the daily rollover can trigger the tight stops.
- Up to 4 positions were open at once (one per window and side at most).
- Tick data note: the report shows history quality 100%, but the tester log shows that for 5.1% of minute bars the real ticks did not match the bar prices; the tester generated ticks for those minutes.

- Gold Swing Break MT5: one H4 swing breakout, one position at a time, low frequency.
- Gold Flash Scalper MT5: 32-hour channel breakout, one position at a time, fast trailing stop. The entry point for small accounts.
- Triple Trigger MT5: breakouts of the 24, 48 and 72-hour rolling high/low, trailing exits.
