The new Nexus control panel is very close to becoming a reality

Hi Enrique,

I’ve been a Trendex user for quite some time, and I wanted to thank you for Nexus. At first, to be honest, I wasn’t very convinced; I thought it would be "the usual" – another grid with martingale that would eventually blow up the account in any tough moment.

But a while ago, I managed to gather a small capital of 10k and decided to follow your advice. Now, after several months, my account has been growing steadily, more than I would have achieved otherwise. That growth has given me confidence in what you do and in the system.

I held off from writing to you this whole time, mainly because I didn’t have high expectations and preferred to just watch how Nexus performed. And although I don’t entirely understand why the price always seems to return to the predicted levels, I now feel confident enough to invest more capital into this. I’m convinced it’s not just coincidence.

Thanks, really.

Do you think you can do this alone? Wrong: Without a community and a system, you're doomed

Here’s the raw truth: trading is a battlefield, and you’re just one soldier. Do you seriously believe you’re going to win this war armed with just your “intuition” and a couple of charts? If you still think trading is a solo game, you’re digging your own grave.

The “lone wolf” mindset is for those who are willing to lose. Because here, in this arena, winning isn’t about how many hours you spend in front of the screen or how much you think you know. It’s about knowing when to call for backup. It’s about having a system that supports you when your emotions betray you, when the numbers don’t add up, and when the market turns into an unfamiliar jungle.

Why do you need a community? Because trading is a maze of doubt. When you trade alone, every decision becomes a mountain of anxiety. What happens when you make a mistake? Who do you turn to when the market throws you an unexpected punch? A community gives you perspective, lets you learn from others' mistakes, and stops you from drowning in your own ego. Having others to bounce ideas off is like having a lighthouse in the fog. The market changes, but your biases and emotions remain the same. You need other traders to challenge you and keep you sharp.

And a system? We’re not just talking about strategy here; we’re talking about a survival protocol. A system is what keeps you alive when your emotions want to make you jump ship. Without a system, you’re sailing blind. And no, we’re not talking about an EA as a simple bot that places orders. We’re talking about an EA as a true intelligent arsenal that adapts, that lets you keep calm, automate decisions, and eliminate emotional noise. It’s the weapon that traders who survive and win use to fight in a market that spares no one.

So, enough with playing the solo hero. If you keep trying to do it all alone, the market is going to chew you up without even blinking. Build a support network, set up a solid system, and let the EAs do the heavy lifting while you focus on the next play.

Want to win at this? Then it’s time to set your ego aside and accept that in trading, survival isn’t a solo mission.

Have you also felt like you were being cheated when buying an EA?


⚠️Even if a (bad) developer does not have that intention, it is common and has an explanation.

Most expert advisors are built on temporary statistical advantages that eventually get exhausted.


The problem of over-optimization

Many developers fall into the trap of tuning their EAs to achieve perfect results in the past, without understanding that this perfection will not work in the future market.


Furthermore, everything is built to make it difficult for retailers to make money: spreads, swaps, commissions, delays, etc.

You'll be surprised to know that those few who make money from trading even pay more than 50% of their profits in one way or another.



The importance of diversification

And with how difficult it is to profit, most traders do not know how to diversify correctly, either because they do not understand the concept or do not have the necessary tools to do so.

If you use the same EA on EUR/USD and GBP/USD (which are strongly correlated), when EUR/USD trades lose, so will GBP/USD trades.


And what about EAs that compensate losing trades with winning trades?

Developers strive to create an EA that never fails in tests. But the market is never the same, so if the EA fails, this technique will wipe out months of profits in one trade.


Therefore. We need an EA that:

✅Does not exploit a temporary statistical advantage but can read the market and adapt.

✅It does not predict the market but follows it wherever it goes.

✅It does not work in correlated markets, so that when trades are lost in one market, they are not lost in the rest.

✅Allows for failure and assumes losses from time to time.

✅It is not optimized to have a perfect curve in backtests. Because a perfect curve only tells us that the EA has been over-optimized.

En unas pocas horas, daremos inicio a la fase beta en vivo del nuevo Nexus ( https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/90877 ).

Al observar detenidamente el gráfico, se puede ver cómo el precio ha estado fluctuando dentro de un rango claro, definido principalmente por los niveles de POC (Point of Control). Este comportamiento revela una consolidación en curso.

En esta ocasión, hemos identificado un POC principal en la parte baja del gráfico, mientras que otros POC adicionales están presentes en la zona superior.

Esta estructura sugiere un mercado que se encuentra en una fase de consolidación, donde el POC inferior está actuando como un soporte sólido, mientras que los POC superiores están ejerciendo presión como resistencia. Esto podría ser indicativo de un próximo movimiento significativo en el precio, que podría ocurrir en cualquier momento. ¡Manténganse alertas para aprovechar esta oportunidad!

In a few hours, we will begin the live beta test of the new Nexus ( https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/90877 ).

A closer look at the chart reveals that the price has been fluctuating within a defined range, primarily shaped by the POC (Point of Control) levels. This indicates an ongoing consolidation.

This time, we have identified a main POC at the lower part of the chart, with additional POCs overlapping in the upper zone.

This setup suggests that the market may be consolidating, with strong support at the lower POC and resistance at the upper POCs. This could be a sign of a significant price movement in the near future. Stay tuned to seize the opportunity!

Evaluation of Trading Strategies: The Journey with Nexus and the New Strategies
Since the launch of Nexus, my flagship expert advisor, I have embarked on a constant search for optimization and perfection. Nexus was born with the idea of integrating 9 main strategies, offering diverse ways to address the complexities of the market. These strategies, designed to adapt to the changing conditions of financial markets, have allowed Nexus to provide a robust platform for traders seeking a high-quality automated system.

However, as a trader and developer, one of the greatest challenges I've faced is the constant evolution of markets and the inevitable degradation of some strategies over time. Understanding that markets are dynamic and what works today may not be effective tomorrow, I have expanded Nexus's reach by increasing the number of evaluated strategies from 9 to 44. This increase has allowed me to cover a wide range of technical approaches, from reversion, trend-following strategies, oscillators, and more.

The Evaluation Process of the 44 Strategies
The process of implementing and evaluating the strategies has been meticulous and detailed. Each of the 44 strategies has been thoroughly tested in different market scenarios, adjusting key parameters to ensure that performance is not only positive but also sustainable in the long term.

One of the main focuses in this phase has been the measurement of the Sharpe ratio for each strategy. This indicator gives us a clear idea of the risk-adjusted performance, helping to determine which strategies provide the optimal balance between profitability and volatility. Strategies with a high Sharpe ratio indicate that they are consistent and deliver good returns without taking excessive risks, while those with negative or low values require attention or even removal.

Results: Strategies that Stand Out
In the analysis, some strategies have proven to be particularly successful, achieving Sharpe ratios above 1. These strategies are the ones that have shown the best risk-adjusted profitability, making them the strongest pillars of the Nexus system.

⚫️Bollinger Bands (1.26): This reversion strategy has proven to be one of the most consistent. Based on extreme market movements, it has effectively captured reversion opportunities during times of volatility.

⚫️FRAMA with Volume Confirmation (1.1): The FRAMA, by dynamically adapting to the market, has been one of the most effective strategies for detecting directional changes, especially when combined with volume.

⚫️DEMA with RSI Confirmation (1.07): The combination of double exponential moving averages and RSI has proven to be an excellent trend-following strategy. Its ability to detect crossovers with high precision has been key to its success.

⚫️AC Oscillator (1.02): This strategy based on the AC oscillator has offered reliable entry points during market momentum, proving its value as an integral part of the system's logic.

These strategies have not only been useful due to their current performance but have also shown to be more resistant to degradation over time, making them reliable options to maintain in the Nexus portfolio.

Strategies with Potential for Improvement
Other strategies, while showing positive performance, could benefit from further adjustments. Among them are:

⚫️RSI Oscillator (0.81): This reversion strategy remains effective but could improve with the addition of more filters to reduce false signals and maximize its performance.

⚫️ViDyA with ADX Confirmation (0.94): The ViDyA, using ADX as confirmation, has proven valuable in detecting directional changes in trends. However, there is room for optimization to reduce risk exposure.

⚫️Tick Volumes (0.82): This strategy has captured significant moments of market volume well but could benefit from adjustments to improve the accuracy of its entries.

Deficient Strategies: Eliminate or Improve?
In the evaluation, we also found that some strategies presented a negative Sharpe ratio, indicating poor risk-adjusted performance. Among the most notable are:

⚫️Bulls + Bears (-1.64): This reversion strategy has had disappointing performance. Its logic seems to not adapt well to current market conditions, and it may need a complete overhaul or removal.

⚫️Chaikin Oscillator (-1.64): Based on zero-line crossover of the Chaikin Oscillator, this strategy has failed to capture important market movements, generating significant losses.

⚫️TRIX (-1.61): Although TRIX is a popular indicator in technical analysis, in this case, its implementation has been ineffective. As a lagging indicator, it has caused late entries that affected overall performance.

Strategy Degradation: A Continuous Challenge
The degradation of strategies is a topic that has always been present throughout the development of Nexus. We know that markets are constantly evolving, and what may be effective today might not work the same way in the future. That’s why my focus has not only been to evaluate the current performance of each strategy but also to understand how they may behave over time.

The results of this evaluation phase have shown that some strategies are more prone to degradation than others. Strategies with a negative or near-zero Sharpe ratio, such as Bulls + Bears or Chaikin Oscillator, have proven to be more vulnerable to market volatility and require deeper analysis to determine if they can be improved or should be eliminated from the system.

Conclusion: Nexus in Evolution
The journey of Nexus has been long, and adding 44 strategies is just another step in my quest to develop a robust and flexible expert advisor. The results of the tests have been revealing, showing not only the strengths of the system but also the areas that need adjustment. The focus on risk-adjusted profitability has allowed me to identify which strategies are worth keeping and which need revision.

This optimization process continues, and as the tests progress, the Nexus system continues to strengthen, better adapting to changing market conditions. Over time, I hope these improvements will not only keep Nexus competitive in the world of automated trading but also make it an even more powerful tool for traders seeking consistency and long-term profitability.

While some results have shown degradation, others continue to shine, motivating me to keep improving the system to offer an increasingly robust product. The journey continues, and Nexus is ready to evolve!

### Are You Looking Too Closely at the Chart? Beware of Microtrends!

These are two images of the same chart at the same time frame but the second one is further away

🔍 Microtrends vs. General Trends: Don’t Be Fooled by the Short Term

Many traders make the mistake of zooming in too much on charts and worry when they see their Expert Advisor seemingly making trades "in the wrong direction." But relax! That’s just a microtrend. If you focus only on these small movements, you might think the EA is failing when it’s actually following a long-term strategy.

---

#### Here’s the Difference:

👀 Up Close (Microtrends)
- It might seem like the EA is making trades at the "wrong time."
- The movements seem contradictory, but in reality, the EA is following larger patterns.

🌍 Zoomed Out (General Trend)
- When you zoom out, you see the true market trend.
- The EA’s trades are aligned with that larger trend, not the small movements you see in the close-up view.

---

### What Does This Mean for You?

💡 Focusing too much on small movements might lead to impulsive decisions that cost you money.
📈 The real profit lies in the long-term trend, not the microtrends.

---

#### Pro Tip for Smart Traders:
Trust the EA’s long-term analysis. It’s designed to take advantage of major trends, and you shouldn’t change the strategy just because you see small daily fluctuations. Over time, the results will be positive.
