The default parameters (SL 225, TP 250, EMA 150/510, RSI 10, ATR 125) were optimized on EURUSD M5 over 11 years of data (2015–2026). They should also work well on GBPUSD and other major forex pairs without changes.
For XAUUSD and XAGUSD, gold and silver are significantly more volatile — I would recommend running your own optimization with wider SL/TP ranges (350–600) and a shorter EMA Slow (200–350). The EA includes a custom OnTester() fitness function that filters for robust results automatically.
I plan to publish optimized .set files for XAUUSD and other pairs in the Comments section as I complete testing.
Regarding minimum balance:
- $100 absolute minimum (0.01 fixed lot, ~$2.25 risk per trade on EURUSD)
- $500 recommended for comfortable operation
- $1,000+ ideal — you can switch to Risk % mode at 1% and let the EA size positions automatically
For XAUUSD, double these numbers due to higher tick value.
Always test on demo first with your specific broker conditions. If you run an optimization and want help selecting the best parameter set, feel free to post your results here.
