How the published data should be interpreted
The published data relates to one specific EURUSD Journal configuration for EUR/USD. It does not represent every account, broker or execution environment. Each result should be read alongside its date, direction, exit method, costs and the version of the system in use at the time.
EUR/USD is among the world’s most liquid currency pairs, but spreads, liquidity and quoting conditions can still vary throughout the trading day.
How results are calculated
A result in points is the change between entry and exit prices, adjusted for the direction of the position. A BUY is positive when the exit price is above the entry price; a SELL is positive when the exit price is below it. “Cumulative result” is the sum of successive closed-trade results in points.
Maximum drawdown records the largest adverse move from the entry price: a fall for a BUY or a rise for a SELL. The broker’s smallest quotation unit for EURUSD may be smaller than a conventional pip, which is why the panel reports MT5 points.
- a result in points is not the same as a cash profit or loss;
- it does not reflect another user’s position size;
- it depends on the broker’s decimal precision and symbol specification;
- it may not include every charge levied by the broker.
Costs and execution differences
The cash result is affected by spread, commission, swap, slippage, execution delay, position size, liquidity, trading time and quotation method. The same signal may be filled at a different price by another broker, or not filled at all.
The charts and trade history document this specific system; they do not simulate the outcome for every visitor.
Delays and incomplete availability
The portal depends on MetaTrader 5, a local computer, analytical services, an internet connection, hosting, a database and the user’s browser. A failure in any part of that chain can cause delays, missing images or updates, or a temporary mismatch between the text status and the chart.
A “LOADING” message, an old timestamp or an empty panel does not mean BUY, SELL or NO TRADE. It means only that the latest status has not been confirmed.
Limitations of AI models
- a model may overfit the historical sample;
- relationships seen in the past may cease to hold;
- changes in volatility, spreads or market structure may weaken signal quality;
- a high probability score is not certainty;
- a model may produce a run of incorrect signals, or no signal for an extended period;
- a filter may reject a trade that would later have been profitable.
No signal does not imply that the market will remain still. It means only that the strategy’s conditions were not met.
Execution-configuration risk
During research periods, the system may use a very high proportion of capital and leverage. A configuration that commits all available margin, or uses leverage of up to 100:1, can lead to rapid and substantial losses, forced position closures or the loss of most of the capital. This information is disclosed for transparency, not as an invitation to copy the configuration.
Forex and CFD trading carries a high level of risk. Leverage magnifies losses as well as gains. Project settings should not be copied without independent analysis and, where appropriate, professional advice.
Information only
Material published by EURUSD Journal is technical, informational and educational. It is not personalised investment advice, a recommendation or invitation to trade, a guarantee of profit, or an assurance that the method will remain effective.
Anyone deciding whether to trade a financial instrument does so at their own risk. The portal has no knowledge of a visitor’s finances, objectives, experience or tolerance for loss.
Development and methodology changes
EURUSD Journal is an evolving project. AI models, strategies, filters, entry and exit methods, risk parameters, supported markets, update frequency and data presentation may change. A material change may prompt a new observation period or an update to the methodology.
Methodology last updated: 18 July 2026
Principle: a historical result belongs to the version of the system in use when the trade was placed.
Before interpreting the results
- Check the market, timeframe and latest update time.
- Distinguish the active position from the most recently closed trade.
- Do not treat points as a ready-made cash result.
- Allow for costs, liquidity and differences between brokers.
- Read the risk warning and do not treat the historical record as a forecast.
