Philippe Calibre 79 Live Results

How to read these signals

All three accounts trade the same Philippe Calibre 79 logic at the same moments — the only difference is the risk profile, which sets lot size relative to balance. That is why they share the same trade count and win rate while growth and drawdown scale with exposure: a bigger profile earns more on winning baskets and dips deeper while a basket is open.

• Growth is the account's percentage gain since the first deposit, calculated by MQL5.
• Max drawdown (equity) is the deepest peak-to-trough fall including floating losses on open positions. For a basket-managed EA this is the number to size your account against — 10.13% on Balanced so far.
• Max drawdown (balance) only counts closed trades, so it always looks smaller. Treat it as a secondary figure.
• Profit factor is gross profit divided by gross loss; above 1.0 means the account made more than it lost.
• Win rate is the share of closed trades in profit. A high win rate with smaller average wins than losses is typical of basket exits — read it together with profit factor and drawdown, never alone.

Why small balances and 1:1000 leverage?

The signals run deliberately small $50–$100 balances. High leverage keeps the margin each position ties up small on balances like these; it does not change position size, which the risk profile controls. For your own account, Minimum Capital on MQL5 is $500 for Standard Accounts (or equivalent in Cent/Micro accounts). For the Balanced tier the developer recommends standard accounts with $1,000+ or Micro accounts with $100+. See the broker and VPS requirements.

Which preset matches which signal?

Each live signal runs one of the official set files, which you can download free: Balanced, Aggressive, Extreme. Conservative, Defensive and Strict Defensive use the same logic with smaller exposure and are not live-monitored.

How much weight should a young signal carry?

Not much on its own. 32 trades is a small sample — the accounts are young by design, and the MQL5 figures will move as the months add up.

Live trading also rarely matches a backtest. The published Standard-profile backtest (the Balanced preset) reports 8.14% relative equity drawdown and a profit factor of 17.08; the Balanced live signal has already reached 10.13% equity drawdown with a profit factor of 1.89. Real spreads, slippage and a different market period all widen that gap — so size your account from the live equity drawdown, not the backtest, and use the free demo in the Strategy Tester to test on your own broker's data. Past performance, live or backtested, does not guarantee future results.
