Gold Reaper

RESEARCH ONLY · NOT PROMOTED. Nothing on this page is approved for live or demo trading. Demo accounts only; no live trades.

Fees: every $ figure is net of $25 per contract round trip (≈$5 commission+exchange+NFA plus ~1 tick slippage each side), charged per contract, so it scales with Roman legs and money-management lots. $35 sensitivity is shown in the columns marked “@ $35”. 1 GC per strategy unless stated.
Data: GC 1-minute continuous back-adjusted, 2 Jan 2025 → 5 Oct 2026, ET. H1 = 2 Jan–18 Nov 2025 (choose settings) · H2 = 19 Nov 2025–5 Oct 2026 (validate) · W = 1 Aug–5 Oct 2026 (losing-window focus).
Known data gaps excluded: GC: 7 Apr–16 May 2025 (tick-cache hole), 27 May and 24 Jul 2025 (roll days), 27–28 Nov 2025 (Thanksgiving / CME outage), 6 Oct 2026 (partial). SI: 27–28 Nov 2025, 25 Jun 2026 (1-minute hole), 6 Oct 2026. Source ceo/known_gaps_futures_crypto.json; no entries are taken in these windows and they are shaded on the curves.
Caveat: gold rose from about $2,600 to over $4,000 across the sample, which flatters long trades. The first sweep (discarded for a timestamp bug) was seen before the selection rule was written, so H2 is not perfectly blind.

Summary verdict RESEARCH ONLY

No Gold Reaper setting is robust at a size a $50k account can hold. Many settings make money in H1, H2 and Aug–Oct, but at 1 GC per strategy their max drawdowns run from about $47k to $195k (Aug–Oct robust set), which is roughly 1–4× a $50k account. None has been checked on data the selection did not see. Nothing is promoted.

Best gold setting (Aug–Oct focus): s2_30+H_biasHTF_BE1_trail0_news0 — 30-minute + 1-hour signals, higher-timeframe trend filter, breakeven on, trailing off, no news filter. W +$86,231 (PF 1.50, DD $47,750) · H2 +$666,252 (PF 1.97, DD $74,535; $652,092 @ $35) · H1 +$321,241 (PF 2.29) · 83% positive months in H2. Curve beside it below and in the table.

best Aug-Oct GC setting — Best Aug–Oct gold setting `s2_30+H_biasHTF_BE1_trail0_news0`: W +$86.2k PF 1.50 · H2 +$666.3k PF 1.97 DD $74.5k · H1 +$321.2k (net of $25).

baseline vs best overlay — Original EA (A_faithful: full +$217.5k, DD $62.5k) vs best H1-ranked combo (B2_drop9_F_R2_bias: full +$296.6k, DD $23.7k), net of $25.

Gold Reaper lives in Hunter 7 as a plugin that is off by default (allinone_v7/python/aio7/plugins/gold_reaper/). Python only. The MQL5 port compiles (0 errors) but MT5 testing was cancelled by David.

Original vs improved

Grid top 20 (2,592-run full factorial)

Grid: stacking × swing L/R × min_dist × portfolio cap × expiry × TF set × GC/SI, all on cap-2R/2R exits. Selection on H1 (≥40 trades, net > 0, ranked by net/DD × min(1, PF/1.2)); top 50 re-run at $35 and validated on H2. 42 of 50 robust (no flags); top 20 robust shown. These run ~24–27 trades/day with H2 DD ≈ $113k–$119k at 1 lot: far beyond a $50k account. Rows are near-duplicates (min_dist / expiry barely matter).

Factor importance: what helps and what hurts

Helps / adds edge (GC)

Breakeven off and trailing off add profit (but deepen drawdown)
Previous-day high/low bias (small, consistent)
Adding 15/30-minute signals to 1-hour helps H2/H1 but loses in W (mixed)

Hurts

Anything that trades off the 1-minute chart (every M1 set lost heavily in W, H2 and H1)
Session filters (NY, London+NY, no-Asia)
News filter
One trade per direction; no-both-directions
Tighter / fixed / swing stops; level targets (fall back to 1R)

Curve column: each row is a median delta over many runs, so there is no single equity curve for it. The curves for the actual settings are in the Aug–Oct and grid tables above. Deltas vs factor off / base, net of $25.

Roman 4-tier and money management WARNING

Read before using any number here.

Roman 4-tier = 4 contracts per signal (legs at T1/T2/T3 × R, leg 4 a trailing runner, per-leg breakeven). It replaces the EA's own breakeven/trail, so winners run much further; that is why the totals reach millions. Drawdowns scale with it: $0.4M–$3.3M, i.e. 8–65× a $50k account. Not tradable at $50k.
Money management +1 GC per $1,000 closed profit: uncapped compounding on a strategy whose single losses run $10k–25k per contract blows up (equity goes deeply negative, then lots fall back to 1, so some H2 rows look like the 1-lot base). Only the cap-10 variants are even arguable, and their DD is still several times a $50k account.
Fees are charged per contract, so every extra leg/lot pays $25 (shown) or $35.

Monthly returns on a $50,000 base (fixed base, not compounded)

MM rows in H1 show the blow-up (averages of −875% and −112%).

SI (silver) cost caveat

SI rows were charged the same $25 per round trip as GC, but one SI tick alone is $25 (5,000 oz × $0.005). Real SI costs are about $55 per round trip (≈$5 commission + 1 tick slippage each side). SI runs 34–46 trades/day, so the shortfall is large: e.g. 7,870 H2 trades × $30 ≈ $236k extra cost. Every SI figure on this page is overstated and SI should not be read as better than GC until it is re-run at ~$55.

Other gold EAs (preliminary, OHLC 1m, likely overfit) SEPARATE

These are not Gold Reaper and not comparable with the futures results above. They are early MT5 tester numbers on a 1-minute OHLC model, which is optimistic for scalpers because many trades open and close inside one minute. MoonDog and Ghost Scalper were close to flat in 2021–2024 and most of their profit is in 2026; both were released in mid-2026, so they are probably fitted to recent data. Do not trust them until a real-tick test runs.

Fees: broker P&L including spread, broker commission removed, then minus $25 per 1.00 lot round trip (1 lot = 100 oz ≈ 1 GC). $35/lot sensitivity column shown. Grey line on each curve = before the fee; red dashed = $35.
Data: BlackBull MT5 demo tester, XAUUSDp, 1-minute OHLC model (not real ticks), 1 Jan 2020–16 Oct 2026, $100k deposit, supplied preset. This run was made before David said not to use BlackBull; no further BlackBull runs.
Data gaps: the GC futures gap list does not apply to this broker CFD history and was not excluded; broker history gaps were not audited. Treat as preliminary.
