EALegit summary — unaudited listing

Octopus Arts is a fully automated MetaTrader 5 expert advisor designed primarily for XAUUSD (Gold) on hedging accounts. It combines grid/DCA position management with progressive lot sizing, a proprietary hedge recovery mechanism, and trend-following logic that lets favorable positions run toward an equity-based profit target while cutting or restructuring unfavorable ones. The EA includes sideways-market filters and automated basket management, with only two user inputs (Initial Lot and Profit Target %). It does not use fixed stop losses, and the seller notes that grid/DCA and hedging methods can produce substantial floating drawdown, potentially around 50% or more during prolonged sideways markets.
