Purpose of This Report
This report reviews the Week 27 live paper result for EURGBP V4.1.27.
The purpose of the test was to check whether the V4 corridor structure could be improved by allowing a controlled second paper position only in the opposite direction.
The report also explains the main research finding from Week 27 and the decision to create EURGBP V4.1.28 for Week 28.
EURGBP V4.1.28 keeps the V4.1.27 base logic, but adds one additional confirmation filter based on the M5 candle body direction.
Week 27 Final Result
EURGBP V4.1.27 closed 31 paper trades during Week 27.
Final result:
Trades: 31
Gross +R: +13.8611R
Gross -R: -11.2084R
Net R: +2.6526R
TP: 9
SL: 10
MAX_HOLD: 12
The final weekly result was positive, but it did not reach the weekly research target of +5R net.
Therefore, EURGBP V4.1.27 is not accepted as a demo-stage candidate from this week alone.
Target Review
The weekly target remains:
+5R net per week or higher
EURGBP V4.1.27 finished Week 27 at:
+2.6526R net
This means the version improved compared with the failed Week 26 V4.26 result, but it did not pass the full weekly target.
The result is useful, but not strong enough for a demo-stage decision.
Why V4.1.27 Was Not Accepted as a Demo Candidate
The main reason is simple:
The final net result was below +5R.
EURGBP V4.1.27 had a positive week, but the negative side was still too large.
The robot produced:
Gross +R: +13.8611R
Gross -R: -11.2084R
This shows that the version had profitable movement available, but too much of that positive potential was lost through negative trades.
The raw version was not clean enough.
The Week 27 result does not mean that the idea failed completely. It means that the version needed another research step before any demo-stage decision.
Opposite Second Slot Review
EURGBP V4.1.27 was created to test the opposite second-slot structure.
The slot audit showed:
FIRST_SLOT: 30 trades, Net +3.7526R
SECOND_SLOT: 1 trade, Net -1.1000R
This is an important finding.
Week 27 did not prove that the opposite second slot itself improved the result.
Only one SECOND_SLOT trade was opened, and that trade closed at -1.1000R.
Most of the useful Week 27 information came from the FIRST_SLOT trades, not from the second-slot structure.
This does not automatically remove the opposite second slot from future testing, but it means the Week 27 improvement cannot be credited to the second slot.
The main research finding was found somewhere else.
Plus and Minus Trade Audit
After the weekly result was reviewed, the next question was:
Why did some trades win and other trades lose if the base entry logic was the same?
The audit compared positive and negative trades without using trading hours or weekdays as the main explanation.
The goal was to find an additional condition that was present in many positive trades and absent in many negative trades, or the opposite.
The strongest difference was found in the M5 candle body direction at the time of entry.
Main Finding: M5 Directional Body
The most important Week 27 finding was:
Losing trades were strongly concentrated in entries where the M5 candle body was against the candidate trade direction.
The test condition was:
Block the trade if the current M5 candle body is against the entry direction.
For BUY candidates:
The M5 candle should not be bearish against the BUY entry.
For SELL candidates:
The M5 candle should not be bullish against the SELL entry.
In simpler terms:
The base corridor signal may still exist, but the current M5 candle must not be moving against the planned trade.
Historical Filter Test on Week 27
A historical test was performed on the same Week 27 trade set.
Base EURGBP V4.1.27 result:
Trades: 31
Gross +R: +13.8611R
Gross -R: -11.2084R
Net R: +2.6526R
Winrate: 61.29%
TP: 9
SL: 10
MAX_HOLD: 12
Filtered result, blocking entries where the M5 directional body was against the trade:
Trades: 17
Gross +R: +12.0242R
Gross -R: -2.1840R
Net R: +9.8401R
Winrate: 88.24%
TP: 8
SL: 2
MAX_HOLD: 7
The filtered result would have passed the +5R weekly research target.
Blocked Trade Group
The blocked group contained 14 trades.
Blocked group result:
Trades removed: 14
Gross +R: +1.8369R
Gross -R: -9.0244R
Net R: -7.1875R
TP: 1
SL: 8
MAX_HOLD: 5
This blocked group explains most of the weakness in the raw V4.1.27 result.
The filter removed a group that was strongly negative overall.
This is why the historical result improved from:
+2.6526R to: +9.8401R The improvement was: +7.1875R
Why This Finding Matters
This is a useful research finding because the condition is known before entry.
It does not use the final result of the trade.
It does not use future price movement.
It does not change the core V4.1 entry logic.
It only asks whether the current M5 candle body supports or rejects the candidate trade direction.
This makes it suitable for a controlled forward paper test.
Decision After Week 27
EURGBP V4.1.27 is not moved to demo stage.
The raw version did not reach the +5R weekly target.
However, the Week 27 audit produced a strong additional filter candidate.
The decision is to create EURGBP V4.1.28.
EURGBP V4.1.28 is not a new major version.
It is a continuation of the V4.1 research branch.
The reason is that EURGBP V4.1 has not yet been released as a demo robot. Therefore, the next weekly research version remains inside the V4.1 line.
EURGBP V4.1.28 Description
Robot: EURGBP V4.1.28
Base version: EURGBP V4.1.27
Symbol: EURGBP
Timeframe: M5
Mode: PAPER_SIM_ONLY
Orders sent: NO
Test type: Live paper forward test
Test week: Week 28
Weekly research target: +5R net per week
EURGBP V4.1.28 keeps the base EURGBP V4.1.27 logic.
The only added change is:
Block entry if the M5 directional body is against the candidate trade direction.
What Remains the Same in V4.1.28
EURGBP V4.1.28 keeps:
The EURGBP M5 corridor foundation
The V4.1.27 base entry logic
The paper-only research mode
The weekly +5R net target
The opposite second-slot structure
The same safety rule: orders_sent=NO
No real orders are allowed.
What Changes in V4.1.28
One filter is added.
The new filter checks the current M5 candle body before opening a paper trade.
If the candidate trade is BUY:
The trade is blocked if the M5 candle body is bearish against the BUY direction.
If the candidate trade is SELL:
The trade is blocked if the M5 candle body is bullish against the SELL direction.
Block reason:
M5_DIRECTIONAL_BODY_AGAINST_ENTRY
The purpose is to avoid entries where the base corridor logic gives a signal, but the current M5 candle body is moving against that signal.
Why Only One Filter Was Added
Only one filter was added because the purpose of Week 28 is to test the specific Week 27 finding.
Other possible filters were observed, including M15 context and candle close location, but they were not added to V4.1.28.
Adding too many filters at once would make it difficult to know which change caused the result.
EURGBP V4.1.28 is therefore a controlled test version.
The base logic remains unchanged.
Only the M5 directional body filter is added.
Week 28 Research Task
The Week 28 task is to test whether the M5 body filter works in forward live paper observation.
The key questions are:
Can V4.1.28 reduce Gross -R compared with V4.1.27?
Can V4.1.28 keep enough Gross +R after filtering?
Can V4.1.28 reach +5R net during Week 28?
How many signals are blocked by M5_DIRECTIONAL_BODY_AGAINST_ENTRY?
Does the filter remove mainly bad trades or does it also remove too many good trades?
The most important metrics for Week 28 will be:
Final net R
Gross +R
Gross -R
Closed paper trades
TP count
SL count
MAX_HOLD count
Blocked signals by M5 filter
Orders sent status
Success Criteria for V4.1.28
EURGBP V4.1.28 will be treated as a strong candidate if it reaches:
+5R net per week or higher
A strong result should also show:
Lower Gross -R than V4.1.27
Acceptable trade count
Reduced SL count
A stable realised balance path
No live orders sent
The filter does not need to produce the exact historical result of +9.8401R. That result was based on Week 27 history.
The Week 28 test is a forward paper test.
Failure Criteria for V4.1.28
EURGBP V4.1.28 will be treated as weak if:
The final weekly result is below 0R
The filter removes too much Gross +R
The Gross -R remains too high
The SL count remains high
The trade count becomes too low to evaluate
The balance path becomes unstable
If V4.1.28 fails, the M5 body filter will not be accepted as a confirmed upgrade.
Research Note
EURGBP V4.1.27 did not pass the weekly target.
However, the week was still useful because it showed a repeatable weakness pattern.
The weakness was not mainly explained by the opposite second slot.
The main weakness was found in trades where the current M5 candle body was against the planned entry direction.
This is exactly the purpose of the research process:
observe the robot, measure the result, compare positive and negative trades, identify a possible weakness, create a controlled test version, and test the change in the next live paper week.
Safety Rules
EURGBP V4.1.28 is a paper-only research version.
Mode: PAPER_SIM_ONLY
Orders sent: NO
Real-money execution: Disabled
Purpose: Live paper research only
This version must not send live orders.
The result will be used only to evaluate whether the M5 directional body filter deserves further observation.
Final Decision
EURGBP V4.1.27 is not accepted as a demo candidate.
The version finished Week 27 at +2.6526R, below the +5R weekly target.
However, the Week 27 audit produced a strong controlled filter candidate.
EURGBP V4.1.28 has been created for Week 28.
The base V4.1.27 logic remains unchanged.
The only added change is:
Block entries where the M5 directional body is against the candidate trade direction.
Next Report
EURGBP V4.1.28 starts from Week 28.
The next report will review whether the M5 directional body filter improves the live paper result in forward observation.
The main focus will be:
Net R
Gross +R
Gross -R
TP / SL / MAX_HOLD distribution
M5 filter blocked signals
Whether the +5R weekly target is achieved
