Every figure on this site comes from one generated file, which is written from the strategy-test reports themselves. Nothing is typed in by hand, here or anywhere else.
These are backtest figures. 2024-01-01 to 2026-08-01 on XAUUSD, H1, $2,000 deposit, 1-minute OHLC model, 15,184 bars at 99% quality. Past results do not predict future results and trading carries risk of loss.
Every one measured on the same $2,000 deposit, over the same 31 months, on the same backtest.
| Agent | Ended at | Trades | Profit factor | Worst below deposit | Longest quiet |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ORIONthe cautious one | $74,824 | 170 | 3.99 | 0.00% | 56 d |
| VEGAthe forward one | $197,400 | 225 | 4.25 | 0.00% | 34 d |
| LYRA Normalthe standard LYRA | $561,235 | 319 | 4.82 | 6.42% | 34 d |
| LYRA Aggressivethe furthest out of the six | $749,003 | 410 | 5.19 | 7.97% | 34 d |
| DRACOthe one that waits to be convinced | $75,899 | 172 | 4.00 | 0.00% | 56 d |
| ATLASthe default | $123,604 | 201 | 4.17 | 0.00% | 56 d |
A 0.00% in that column is a zero, not a small number — it means the balance never once fell below the deposit the account started with. Every other figure on this site is measured on ATLAS, because ATLAS is what arrives in the box.
For a first account, or money whose loss would be felt. It takes fewer trades than any other agent and adds to a winning run slowly. You pay for that: of the six, ORION earned the least.
For someone who has already traded through a deep drawdown and did not switch things off. More trades, shorter quiet spells, bigger swings from the first day. Its early months are its hardest.
Experienced traders only, with money they can genuinely afford to lose. It builds up to holding more at once rather than starting there. Being the gentler LYRA is about pace, not about depth.
Only for money whose loss would not change your life. It holds more from the very first trade. It traded the most and grew the account the most — and it handed back the largest share of a good year.
For an account that is already substantial. It begins cautious and becomes active only once the account is far larger than it started. On this deposit, over this window, it never reached that point.
What ETA-CODE ships with, and what we would choose knowing nothing else about you. As cautious as ORION at first, then more active once your account has multiplied several times. Expect that change rather than be surprised by it.
Bars are on a log scale — on a linear one every other instrument would be a single pixel. Each alternative is shown at its own best stretch in a decade, averaged by year. Theirs is what happened. Ours is a backtest. That difference matters and we are not going to bury it.
It is not a shortcut. It is built for growth, not for speed. It will not make a million from a hundred. Nothing will.

The figures above are 31 months of a gold bull run, which is why they are the figures used for comparing the six agents against each other and nothing else.
Separately, one agent — LYRA Aggressive, the furthest out of the six — was run over the whole record the system was built against: 2004-06-11 to 2026-08-01, 128,657 bars, which holds 2008, the four-year fall after 2011, and 2022. Over that window it drew down to 26.7% below the deposit at its worst and handed back 52.6% of its best year.
That is one agent over one window, so no figure from it describes any other agent, and it is quoted here only to answer the question the short window cannot: what happens in a market that falls for years. History quality on that run is 98%, so nothing from it is quoted to the cent.
