1FXproject

BACKGROUND
Trading the forex markets is one of the hardest challenges you can take on. Most traders lose money. Even with dedication, the right tools, and years of experience, the odds are stacked against you. The market is unpredictable, unforgiving, and constantly evolving and it will test your discipline, patience, and emotional control every single day.For over 20 years, I’ve researched, tested, and refined countless trading strategies. I’ve studied market cycles, analyzed thousands of trades, and made mistakes.But after two decades of trial, error and independent thought, I’ve developed a trading system that can consistently beat the market. It wasn’t luck, it was persistence, discipline, and a relentless pursuit of an edge. My mission now is to prove the strategy LIVE and see what’s truly possible.GOAL
1FXproject is a journey to showcase the results of thinking outside of the box and the results of having the market under surveillance for a significant period of time such that it now has become predictable. With predictability comes profit.The goal of 1FXproject is to turn £1,000 into £1,000,000 in 1 year. After that is achieved, it is intended that 1FXproject will evaluate whether AI can be added to the strategy to improve the way that markets are analysed.WelcomeWelcome to Data-Driven Automated Trading — a hub for traders who want to combine market insights with the power of automation.This site documents the journey of developing and refining trading strategies through data analysis, rigorous testing, and practical application. Whether you’re curious about building your first algorithm or looking to sharpen your existing strategies, you’ll find transparent insights into what works, what doesn’t, and why.In addition to sharing my research and experience, I’ve created a comprehensive trading course designed to help you shorten the learning curve. The course includes practical tools and ready-to-use trading robots, so you can confidently approach the forex market with a proven, systematic edge.My goal is simple: to help traders move away from guesswork and emotion, and toward data-driven decisions, disciplined execution, and long-term consistency.

strategy

1FXproject is a unique and revolutionary approach towards automated trading which allows for precise data to be backtested over long time periods in order to develop solid statistical analysis on the likelihood of price movements. This data is then analysed in order for patterns to be learnt and strategies to be developed. Most importantly, the trading parameters are objective and therefore allow for extensive backtesting to be conducted in order to determine profitability quickly and accurately.The aim of 1FXproject is to show that it IS possible to make money trading in the forex market. 1FXproject constructs mechanical strategies using automation and technology to perform statistical analysis of the price movement and then compute the most profitable inputs.The strategy solves many common questions that traders face including the following:
- when to ENTER the market;
- whether to BUY or SELL;
- when to EXIT the market;
- which INSTRUMENTS to trade; and
- how much capital to RISK per trade.Step 1
1FXproject collects price data and iputs this into an Excel model which can then use a "what if" analysis to backsolve for the optimal inputs in order to achieve certain outcomes, for example, to maximise profit or to minimise drawdowns. Returns are then calculated on a linear basis and also on a compounded basis.Step 2
The optimal inputs are then manually inputted into the automated trading robot which trades on the Metatrader 4 platform. The trading robot will then calculate lot sizes and entry and exit orders in line with the inputs and execute trades automatically throughout the day.Step 3
At the end of the day, trades are checked and then profits are re-invested into the next trade and the "capital at risk" input is manually adjusted for the next day of trading.

The chart above shows the account balance for a strategy trading EUR/USD on a non-compounded basis for 937 trades placed between the period 1 January 2022 - 31 July 2025.

What is unique about 1FXproject strategy?Backtesting
Many automated trading strategies do not allow for backtesting as they only trade on live data which means there is no way to know confidently whether the strategy is profitable before trading live. As 1FXproject is an objective and mechanical strategy, it allows for long-term backtesting which show paramaters much as maximum profit reached and also maximum drawdowns incurred. One of the common failures of many systems is an inability to track drawdowns and relate drawdown to profit. For example, a strategy may produce 10% profit per month, but if the drawdowns are 50% per month then the strategy is not as attractive as a strategy which produces 10% monthly with 1% maximum monthly drawdowns.Automation
Fully automated trading around an objective set of criteria allows for no human judgment or emotion when trading and consequently, the robot repeatedly places the same pre-defined set of trades on an intraday basis, calculating variables such as lot size, SL and TP. The robot also manages trades whilst active and has the feature to move SL once a certain level of profit has been reached.Data
1FXproject strategy has created a model for inputting price data that is collected and analysed to quickly determine whether a strategy is viable, measuring total profit and drawdown on both a fixed and compounded basis.Instruments
1FXproject is able to trade not only FX but also many other instruments but many other instruments including, but not limited to, precious metals, commodities and indices.
