Smart Gold Hunter EA MT5 now lets traders combine gold profiles in Portfolio Mode. The useful distinction is how several entry systems share directional risk, not simply how many profiles appear in the menu. Our assessment: the added controls offer more configuration flexibility, but the established Ultimate Scalper signal does not demonstrate the performance of the newly released portfolio configuration.

Review scope: developer documentation and the public MQL5 account checked 27 September 2026 UK time. CheaperForex sells this EA. This is an editorial source assessment, not an independent live trading test.
What Portfolio Mode changes
The 24 September release adds a choice between running one profile and enabling several together. The developer’s current explanation names Positive RR as the new default, superseding the older overview’s Striker default. Existing presets retain their saved selection, so updating the EA and switching its strategy are separate actions.
In Portfolio Mode, valid candidates compete for available directional risk. The system prioritises nearby entries; when candidates are effectively equally close, it prefers the smaller incremental risk. A candidate that cannot fit may be skipped and reconsidered when pending orders or positions release capacity. This makes the order of opportunities part of the resulting trade sequence.
A directional cap is not a total account-loss promise
BUY and SELL capacity are checked independently. Each participating profile can use fixed lots or percentage risk, and identical lot sizes can carry different monetary risk when stop distances differ. Read the configured directional limit alongside all open and pending exposure, rather than treating it as a guaranteed maximum loss for the entire account.
That distinction also corrects our earlier single-entry description. The developer still describes SGH as having no grid, martingale, recovery or hedging strategy, but the optional portfolio is not an unconditional one-position-at-a-time system. Multiple profiles can create overlapping exposure. Stops, broker execution, commission and slippage still affect realised outcomes.
Stop handling needs a configuration-specific check
The latest release broadens execution options including False Initial SL, entry randomisation and execution-price stop adjustment. An older developer explanation used the name Hide Initial SL for a pending-order behaviour. Without the current complete manual, those names should not be assumed to describe identical behaviour in every profile.
Before relying on a configuration, establish what is sent to the broker before entry, what changes after execution and what protection remains if MT5 disconnects. The historical chart below shows one displayed setup. It cannot establish how every current profile handles stops.
The current Ultimate Scalper signal
On 27 September, MQL5 labelled the developer-linked account Real Account on ICMarketsSC-MT5-2. The account name is Smart Gold Hunter Ultimate Scalper. The following figures are a dated observation, not a forecast or a statement that a buyer will reproduce them.
| Growth and trading profit | 159.52% growth; USD 159.44 profit. |
|---|---|
| Cash flows and equity | USD 100 initial deposit, no additional deposits, USD 5.86 withdrawn and USD 253.58 equity. |
| Trade sample | 201 XAUUSD trades; 76.11% winning trades; profit factor 1.86. |
| Drawdown measures | 14.02% maximal balance drawdown. MQL5 separately reported 3.32% relative equity drawdown; these are different measures. |
| Execution sensitivity | Average holding time 50 seconds. The page warned of negative slippage when copying deals. |
The account starts in March, while Portfolio Mode arrived in September. The developer has described a bonus signal preset and earlier changes between Scalper and Ultimate Scalper. The full history therefore spans different builds and settings. It is not a 30-week test of the new portfolio. The displayed account age also differs from the page’s shorter monitoring-duration tooltip.
The return is encouraging as an account observation, but the short average holding time makes execution costs particularly relevant. Match profile, preset, broker conditions and risk before comparing trades. A high win rate on its own does not establish the size or frequency of future losses.
What the older evidence adds
The earlier signal capture provides a historical comparison; the tester report shows a simulation. Neither fills the gap in evidence for a newly configured Portfolio Mode. Keep each image attached to its own date or historical context rather than presenting the entire gallery as one current live test.
Customer feedback and reproducibility
The older comments shown below are selected early experiences. Current MQL5 feedback checked on 27 September includes praise for results and support, alongside complaints about differences in trade sequences and risk sizing. The developer points to configuration and execution differences and privately supplied signal presets. Those responses do not establish that ordinary users will reproduce the public account.
Recent public questions asked which precise version, profile and preset the signal was running. The inspected exchange did not provide a complete public answer. That is a useful setup question to resolve before using the signal as a benchmark. Third-party opinions remain separate from this store’s customer ratings.
How we would assess a configuration
Start by recording the build, selected profiles, preset, broker symbol specification and sizing. Evaluate a single profile before adding overlapping strategies, then inspect pending risk and both directional limits. Compare spread, commission, slippage and floating equity as well as closed profit. A profile or preset change begins a new comparison.
The public September article explains the new mechanics, but full buyer guidance is distributed privately; we did not inspect a complete public 5.0 manual. Avoid treating an old M15 chart or the signal account’s leverage as a universal setup requirement. Prop Firm Scalper’s name also does not replace checking a particular firm’s current rules.
Our verdict
SGH’s strongest practical appeal is control over several gold entry styles and their exposure. Portfolio Mode adds flexibility for traders prepared to examine how those styles interact. The principal limitation is evidence matching: the established signal supports discussion of that account’s history, while a new portfolio configuration still needs its own evaluation.
