How Mavrik Scalper trades
News and time filters can skip hours or events you do not want. A hedging account is required. The listed minimum deposit is 500 USD.
Results can differ by broker spread on M5 gold, how many of the four slots are in use, lot size, and those filters.
What you can set
On these solo tests, 1% risk lost $16.62, 0.5% risk lost $6.94, and 2% risk lost $44.05. Lower risk lost less, but it did not turn the $1,000 average positive. Keep the first live lot small. Do not raise risk to 2% hoping for a better average.

Each bar is one test. Height = share of paths that finished in profit — not the same as average $.
How the tests work
Gold (XAUUSD) only. Mavrik Scalper 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; it is a stress check, not the product’s stated floor.
- 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.

Our take
In six solo gold tests — this EA only — five averages were minus. The $1,000 baseline lost $16.62. The only plus average was $5,000, at +$95.34 (about +1.9%). The 180-day test lost $51.76. The 2% risk test lost $44.05. The $300 test lost $25.31; that deposit is below the listed 500 USD minimum.
Our take: Cautious — weaker results in these tests. The $5,000 setting was the exception. Demo it on gold M5 with a small lot and the listed 500 USD floor in mind before any live use.
These tests run this EA by itself on gold. They are research tests — not live trading. Read the risk disclosure.
