How Gold HFT - Hybrid MT5 Final works

Rules in this group usually work like this. It waits until price is already moving, then joins that move. It is wrong in small ways many times, and right in a large way a few times. The hard part is the stretch where price chops around and every entry is a fake. The next paragraph is this particular rule, which can be narrower than the group.

It can buy, and it can bet on falling prices. It buys when the 9-period EMA of the close crosses above the 21-period EMA of the close and ADX is above 15. It can also enter the other way. That condition is in the list below. When it enters, it also sets a stop or a target, so a trade can close without a new signal.

Each trade uses a fixed size of 1. It holds one trade at a time.

The exact condition, from the code

Same rule, translated from the code, in the author's names. You can skip this list if the paragraph above was enough.

Enters long when the 9-period EMA of the close crosses above the 21-period EMA of the close and ADX is above 15.
Enters short when the 9-period EMA of the close crosses below the 21-period EMA of the close and ADX is above 15.
Keeps a target at (the average entry price + 5), a stop at (the average entry price − 3), a trailing stop working while the position is open.

Default settings

The test used the defaults in the middle column. Nothing was turned to help a coin.

The author left no settings adjustable. Every number is fixed in the code.

How the backtest was run

Every strategy was tried the same way, on the settings the author published.

The years are October 2021 to June 2026. The prices are from Bybit, for 13 widely traded coins, mostly on hourly, 4-hour and daily charts, with some faster charts. That was 47,242 tries. The window stored in the files is 2021-09..2026-06.

599 rules produced a finished try. A rule that finished above zero on at least 12 cells, before any fee, was tried again with a fee of 0.12 percent per side. Only buys are counted in that second try. 273 rules got it.

The method, the aggregate results and a downloadable table are on the study page. What the desk does with the results beyond these pages is its own.

This is the second pass. A fee of 0.12 percent per side is taken on the buy and again on the sell. Only buys are counted. If the rule also bets on falling prices, those trades are not in these numbers.

After fees, none of its 1 cells finished above zero. The median of every cell was −0.1%.

0 of the cells cleared a quality check: at least 50 trades, gains that are not one lucky trade, and a drawdown that is real without taking the whole account.

Cells tried after the fee	1
Finished above zero	0
Middle result, the median of every cell	−0.1%
Middle drawdown, every cell	0.1%
Cells that cleared the quality check	0

Label: backtest · old prices, buys only, a fee of 0.12 percent per side, every cell · Oct 2021 – Jun 2026. Hypothetical results; see the risk disclosure.

How to read the result

How to read the number

The median of every cell is the result of the rule. The author's settings were not changed to help any coin. The weakest and the strongest cells are not a result on their own.

What the number leaves out

0 of 1 cells cleared a quality check: at least 50 trades, a profit factor that is not one lucky trade, and a drawdown that is real without taking the whole account. Profit factor means the gains divided by the losses. Clearing the check describes this sample. It says nothing about the next set of years.

What this does not show

The useful question, for a rule that joins a move already underway, is what it gave back in the choppy months when there was no trend to join.

Nothing on this page was fit to the cell that finished highest. One coin, one chart speed, or one strong stretch is a single row. It is not the rule. Other years, another exchange, or another fee would be a different measurement.
