Mad Turtle Download — ONNX Gold EA for MT5
Mad Turtle is a MetaTrader 5 gold EA for XAUUSD. It runs ONNX models inside MT5 and trades one position at a time. Six solo tests on this page run this EA alone. Two of six averages were plus. The $1,000 baseline lost $1.42.
What is Mad Turtle?
The listing is single-position trading. It says it does not use a grid or martingale. Stops are part of the design; the page says many stop-loss hits will show. Holds are listed from several hours to several days. Attach it to H1–M15 (any of those). The listed minimum is 500 USD. 2-digit or 3-digit gold quotes are supported. A fully automatic mode is the usual start; the listing asks you not to change model coefficients or thresholds on a live account.
These tests do not rank it against other gold EAs. Each run is this EA only, on 100 gold paths, with the deposit, risk, or window changed. The results are on this page.

How Mad Turtle trades
It is built as one position at a time. Stops close losing trades instead of holding them. There is no trailing stop in the listed design; the models try to let a trade run. Holds can last hours to days. Models are trained for a 24-hour format on larger timeframes, then you attach the EA to H1–M15.
Some models open buys, some open sells, and some only close. A fully automatic mode is the listed start. Extra model lists inside the panel are for experienced testers, not for a first live account.
Results can differ by which auto mode you pick, broker digits (2 or 3), spread around the daily close, and lot size.
What you can set
On these solo tests, 0.5% risk gained $3.56, 2% risk gained $2.41, and 1% risk lost $1.42. Higher risk did not produce a large extra gain on $1,000 in this set. Keep the first live lot small. The listed floor is 500 USD.

A good fit if you
- want an MT5 gold EA that loads ONNX models and trades one position, not a grid
- can leave fully automatic mode on and wait through stop-loss streaks
- will read the six solo tests first
Not a fit if you need
- need a plus average on a $1,000, 90-day, 1% test — that baseline lost $1.42
- want a grid or martingale product
Key risks and how to reduce them
What can go wrong
- Four of six solo averages were minus. The $1,000 baseline lost $1.42.
- The $300 worst path fell 43.56%. That size is below the listed 500 USD minimum.
- The $5,000 worst path closed at −$879.49.
- The listing says several stop-loss hits in a row can happen. These tests are not a live MQL5 signal.
Safer first steps
- Run it on an XAUUSD demo before any live use.
- Start with fully automatic mode and a small 0.01 lot.
- Keep the deposit at or above the listed 500 USD.
- Do not raise risk to 2% hoping for a large extra gain — that test gained only $2.41 on $1,000.
What to know before you download
- Confirm MetaTrader 5, XAUUSD, and at least 500 USD.
- Read the six solo tests. Two averages were plus, and the $1,000 baseline lost $1.42.
- Plan to leave fully automatic mode on for the first run.
- Do not expect a grid-style daily drip; this listing is stop-based holds of hours to days.

How the tests work
Gold (XAUUSD) only. Mad Turtle ran alone: no other EA in the test. Each run used 100 paths. The baseline is $1,000, 90 days, 1% risk, lot 0.01. The other runs change one thing: 0.5% risk, 2% risk, a $300 deposit, a $5,000 deposit, or a 180-day window. The $300 run is below the listed 500 USD minimum.
- Symbol: XAUUSD
- Paths per test: 100
- Typical window: 90 days · deposit 1000 · lot 0.01 · risk 1%
- Market mix: random (uptrend, downtrend, range, chop, and shock paths)
- Engine: Hosted FX EA Tester (this EA alone)
- Coverage: 6 tests · 100 paths each
There is no rank and no “wins” score, because nothing else was in the test.
Average profit is the mean dollar result. Paths in profit is how many of the 100 paths finished up. Drawdown is the usual dip and the worst path.

- You want the solo numbers before you use it
- You will demo it on XAUUSD first
- You can accept one position, a stop on each trade, and a near-flat average in these tests
Reasons to be careful
- You need a plus $1,000 baseline
- You do not want a $300 worst path near 44%
Our take
In six solo gold tests — this EA only — two averages were plus and four were minus. The $1,000 baseline lost $1.42. The 0.5% risk test gained $3.56. On $300, below the listed 500 USD minimum, the worst path fell 43.56%.
Our take: Cautious — weaker results in these tests. The dollar swings were small on $1,000, and the longer window was still slightly minus. Demo it on XAUUSD with a small lot before any live use.
These tests run this EA by itself on gold. They are research tests — not live trading. Read the risk disclosure.
