Fantastic 4 EA MT5 Review

Fantastic 4 EA MT5 is an eleven-module XAUUSD portfolio covering breakouts, trend tracking, scalping and pullbacks. Modules A–K have separate entry and order-management rules, while the user selects the active combination and lot size.

Our assessment: it appeals to traders who want to compare several gold entry styles in one EA and can inspect their combined exposure. The checked public account has substantial drawdown and a sharply negative monthly reading, making the aggressive default and actual module sizing central considerations. This is a source-based review with dated evidence below, not a firsthand terminal test or independently reproduced portfolio analysis.

The current product has eleven modules

The name and some overview paragraphs still refer to four strategies, but the current A–K descriptions cover eleven. The attachment chart can use any timeframe; internal references range from M5 scanning through M15/H1 management to H4 swings and D1 ranges. These should not be collapsed into one mandatory attachment period.

A follows H1 support/resistance breakouts. B pairs a relatively narrow stop with a wider target. C is short-term M15 breakout scalping, D tracks M15 trends with a wider stop, and E places stop entries around Zigzag-derived turning points. F targets daily range breaks and G medium-term channels. H seeks faster H1 swing breakouts, I adds pullback tolerance, while J and K permit more aggressive exposure around H1 expansions.

The developer calls the modules independent. Separate entry and management rules are not themselves proof of low return correlation. All share gold market risk, and several may enter or lose together during the same move.

Read profiles as combinations, not percentage guarantees

The 1.4 release enables all strategies by default, classified as Very High Risk. The developer specifically warns against that selection for small-capital users. The default should not be mistaken for a conservative recommendation.

The source’s low profile enables D/E at 0.01 lots per $500. Medium enables B/D/E/F/K at 0.01 per $1,000; high enables A/B/C/D/E/F/G/K at 0.01 per $1,500; very high enables all modules at 0.01 per $2,000. These are developer volume guidelines, not measured account-loss limits.

More capital per stated lot does not automatically make a broader combination safer: it can enable more simultaneous trades. I/J use stops wider than targets, and K is explicitly described as highly aggressive with larger floating drawdown and potentially many positions. Check aggregate exposure rather than judging the portfolio by a single trade’s lot size.

The public 25 July instructions describe fixed lots, initial-deposit-percentage sizing and capital-per-minimum-lot sizing. That document covers A–D and older lot tiers; the current A–K overview takes precedence for module combinations. Neither a fixed lot nor a capital-linked mode gives a fixed maximum portfolio loss.

The earlier reference also documents trade identifiers, strategy-specific SL/TP inputs and optional pending-order cancellation when removing the EA. Cancelling unfilled orders is different from closing open exposure; check the actual selected settings rather than assuming every exit action happens automatically.

The current signal has substantial drawdown

The linked MT5 account, EA Fantastic 4 Default Set, was checked on 31 October 2026 at 23:44 UTC. It trades XAUUSD.e at GrandMarkets-MT5 Live1 with 1:500 leverage. The current 69.19% growth reading supersedes the overview’s older 251% headline.

Cashflow

$10,000 initial deposit plus $8,584.80 profit, less $9,000 withdrawals, equals $9,584.80 balance/equity. No additional deposits.

Trade sample

688 trades; 377 winners and 311 losers; profit factor 1.13.

Relative drawdown

Balance: 72.35% ($20,379.36). Equity: 32.56% ($4,269.79).

Maximal balance DD

$20,381.11 (54.84%), a separate field from relative drawdown.

Recent result

Monthly growth: −57.35% at the source read.

History labels

20 weeks displayed; Started field 17 June 2026 at 12:41:56. The activity tooltip reports 97 days 4 hours of monitoring.

The $9,000 withdrawal is cash removed, not a trading loss. The separately reported growth and drawdown fields should not be replaced by simple balance-versus-initial-deposit arithmetic or reduced to the smallest percentage.

The source warns that a large drawdown may occur again and that two days accounted for 80% of growth. That is concentration of accumulated growth, not an 80% daily-return claim. The record predates retail publication and the later strategy additions; it does not establish one unchanged eleven-module configuration throughout, or promise recovery from the recent losses.

Broker compatibility is a substantive requirement

The source restricts deployment to ECN/RAW accounts and explicitly excludes three-decimal gold quotations. It lists spread below 25, stops level below 30, delay below 100 ms and leverage from 1:100 to 1:1000. Quote precision and unit conventions need to be checked rather than silently converting those figures into universal pips.

Different feeds, stop-distance rules, liquidity and slippage can change pending entries and exits. The developer’s no-grid/no-martingale description and SL/TP claim do not remove those risks or prove that every trade will match a reference account.

Changing versions and conflicting buyer accounts

The July listing began with A–D. Version 1.3, dated 9 August, added E and Strategy B trailing changes; 1.4, dated 27 August, expanded the strategy selection and documented the all-on default. Records spanning those updates do not establish unchanged module settings throughout.

Myroslav Tsymbalistyi, 5 August: the critical review says the robot failed expectations and describes positions going to zero in ambiguous wording. It does not independently establish a total account loss. The developer’s 27 August reply rejects the criticism and claims the account was profitable. Neither account has been independently reconciled here.

bartkacy, 29 August: the positive review describes a month with losing and winning sequences, continued feature development and responsive support. Lee Kevin, 5 September: the Chinese-language review says later gains covered earlier small losses. These are personal experiences, not guaranteed recovery patterns or controlled current-version tests.

The comment thread also contains loss reports from DMP on 20 August, cchong on 27 August and Simone Pozzi on 20 October, alongside positive experiences. These are attributed user reports, not verified account statements. July advice to use defaults predates the explicit August Very High Risk warning and should not override it.
