Introduction
Kaizen Trader EA V1.0 MT5 is an Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5 designed to trade stock indices and gold on the M15 timeframe. It focuses on consistent risk management by automatically calculating trade volume based on a user-defined risk percentage of account balance, adjusted for recent instrument volatility. The system aims to deliver mechanical execution without fatigue or impulse, supporting instruments such as Nasdaq, S&P 500, Dow Jones, Nikkei 225, and XAUUSD.
Key Features
- Automatic volume calculation based on risk percentage of balance with volatility adjustment
- Automatic currency conversion when required by the instrument
- Fully configurable entry and exit parameters
- Multiple exit management modes: time-based, fixed target, dynamic stop, or trend reversal
- Detailed risk calculation diagnostics in the MT5 Journal
- Designed for simultaneous operation on multiple instruments
- Supports Forward period optimization in the Strategy Tester to reduce over-optimization risk
Recommended Settings
Recommended pairs/instruments: Nasdaq, S&P 500, Dow Jones, Nikkei 225, XAUUSD (and other supported indices/gold). Timeframe: M15. Run the EA on at least 3 instruments at the same time for better risk distribution. For Nikkei 225, use fixed-lot mode during testing and keep drawdown under 10% (example starting point: 6 contracts on a $100,000 account). Always include a Forward period when optimizing and trade the selected configuration for an equivalent real-time period before re-optimizing. Start with conservative risk percentage settings and verify calculations in the Journal.
