The portfolio ended the day with a solid realized profit of +739 JPY (or +757 JPY including floating profit), winning an impressive 12 out of 13 closed trades.

In today’s episode, we introduce the newest addition to our automated trading lineup: ML_ScoreAnalyst. Running on a real account, this bot targets the highly volatile GBPJPY 15-minute chart (M15). However, the core focus of this episode isn’t about how often it trades, but rather why it rejects most of the setups it finds.

In today’s episode, we share our strategic blueprint for this week’s MT5 automated trading sessions. Building on the biggest lesson from last week’s parallel tests—that a bot’s true value lies not in its win rate, but in how effectively it minimizes losses—our core theme for this week is the “radical enhancement of exit rules and risk management”.
Here is how we are upgrading each of o...

Despite experiencing days with overall win rates of 68% and 57.1%, the portfolio ultimately ended the week in the red. Why? Because a high win rate can be a dangerous illusion.
