Survival Rate

10-phase validated.

Every strategy in this archive is coded as a standalone Expert Advisor in MQL5 and pushed through a 10-phase validation pipeline. I use MetaTrader 5 with Model 4 (Every Tick based on real ticks) across 9 years of data (2017–2025) on 23 symbols. Phases include baseline screening, parameter sweeps, walk-forward validation on unseen data, real ECN commission testing ($7/lot RT), medium and harsh stress testing, multi-seed overfitting detection, and full statistical validation (Deflated Sharpe Ratio, Monte Carlo, FDR correction).

Profit Factor

PF

Gross profit divided by gross loss. PF > 1.30 required at baseline. PF > 1.0 required after commissions and stress testing. Values above 5.0 with many trades are flagged as suspicious.

Maximum Drawdown

DD%

Largest peak-to-trough equity decline. Must stay below 12% at baseline, 15% under harsh stress. Critical for prop firm compliance where drawdown limits are strict.

Rolling Walk-Forward

RWF

4+ overlapping anchored folds, each with a different out-of-sample window. The strategy must PASS all windows — not just one lucky split. Eliminates strategies that only worked in one specific market period.

Stress Testing

2 Levels

MEDIUM: 2pip slip, 2x spread, $14 comm. HARSH: 5pip slip, 3x spread, $20 comm, 10% random trade rejection. If a strategy can't survive harsh conditions, it shouldn't trade real money.

Multi-Seed Test

5 Seeds

Run each strategy with 5 different random seeds. PF variance must be <20%. If changing the seed turns a winner into a loser, the edge was noise, not signal.

Parameter Sweep

Sweep

100–200+ parameter combinations tested per strategy. Top performers pass 80–93% of configs. Proves the edge is robust across settings, not curve-fit to one lucky combination.

Why I show failures

Most strategy vendors only show winners. I show everything. Out of the strategies documented here, roughly 78% failed the pipeline. That's not a weakness — it's how rigorous testing works. Seeing what failed (and why) gives you more insight into the process than a highlight reel ever could. Every strategy includes its source methodology, test results, and an honest assessment.
