EALegit summary — unaudited listing

Smart Gold Hunter is a MetaTrader 5 expert advisor for XAUUSD/Gold trading that uses single-entry ('one shot') logic with a real stop loss and take profit, explicitly avoiding grid, martingale, recovery, and hedging techniques. It offers several trading profiles (such as Striker, Ultimate Scalper, Swinger, Prop Scalper, PRR Scalping, and a custom mode) covering styles from selective entries to faster scalping, and includes risk controls like daily profit/loss limits, equity protection, news filter, and spread protection. The EA can be attached to a Gold chart, with settings and profiles considered more important than the chart timeframe.

Lab results

What happened in EALegit’s tests

4 real-tick windows · 3 profitable · 0 recorded stop-outs · worst equity drawdown 3.9%

Mixed outcomes: profitable 2024-01-01→2026-09-01, 2025-03-01→2025-07-01, 2026-01-01→2026-07-01; losses 2024-01-01→2025-01-01.

Each window started with a fresh deposit. Overlapping windows are not independent evidence. Historical results are not automatically out-of-sample proof.

Seller evidence vs lab result

No usable seller backtest on file. The seller listing does not publish a testable baseline (dates, settings and metrics together), so reproduction is blocked — not failed. Lab results above stand on their own.

Seller evidence is transcribed from dated sources and reviewed before publication. It never changes the performance score or the audit verdict.

Last recorded activity is the final deal timestamp — it does not by itself mean the test stopped early. Report checks validate the file; the trading outcome is separate.

Realized balance from MT5 deals in USD; floating equity is not recorded and is never synthesized. A simulated balance below zero is kept as reported after a stop-out. Dates use broker server time.

Recorded deal coverage ends 2026-08-28; the remainder of the requested window is unavailable, not zero.

Net bars include entry and closing costs — costs are not subtracted twice. Inactive periods inside recorded deal coverage show zero; anything outside coverage is unavailable, not zero.
Cash P&L includes entry and closing costs; zero rows inside coverage mean no deal activity.

Performance score methodology

C 55/100

4 tested windows · 3 profitable

  • Capital preservation39.0 / 40
  • Profit factor14.7 / 40
  • Profitable windows15.0 / 20

Lab score = round(window performance × 80% + source trust × 20%). Window performance (replay-v3): 40% capital preservation (1 − equity drawdown/100, floored at 0), 40% profit factor (PF − 1, capped at 1), 20% profitable-window share. Equal weight per tested window. Source trust is the owner-source checklist (pass 100, warning 50). No passing checklist leaves that term at 0, so backtests cap at 80. Seller evidence never changes this score. Not the Verified seal and not a probability of future profit.
