BTC Titan
BTC Titan waits until Bitcoin has run one way for a while. Then it places a stop order at the last swing on the other side of the market - the level where many traders keep their stops. If the price comes back and breaks that level, the move is often fast, and BTC Titan is in it.
Every trade carries a fixed stop loss from the first second and a tight trailing stop that banks the burst. One order per swing level, orders that do not fill expire after 72 hours, no martingale and no grid. Up to three trades can be open at the same time, so it needs a hedging account. It places no new orders around high-impact news, and a daily loss limit stops new trades for the rest of the day.
Results
Backtest in the MT5 Strategy Tester, BTCUSD, 0.01 lot, 10,000 USD deposit, real ticks with random delay (JustMarkets ticks before Jul 2026 are generated by the tester). JustMarkets Jan 2024 - Nov 2026: 632 trades, +$419, 33 of 35 months positive. Second broker, real ticks Oct 2025 - Nov 2026: 229 trades, +$144, 13 of 14 months positive. If every trade cost an extra $40 per 1.00 lot (wider spread or slippage), the result falls to +$166 on JustMarkets and +$53 on the second broker. Trading is risky. Past results do not guarantee future results. Tester results are usually better than live results.
How it trades
Waits for a one-way run
It watches the hourly RSI. Only after Bitcoin has run one way for a while does it look for a setup.
Skips quiet markets
No new orders when the market is flat or moves too little - breakouts there rarely run.
Order at the last swing
It parks a stop order at the last swing on the other side, where many stops sit. If the price comes back and breaks it, it is in the move.
Fixed stop on every trade
Every order carries its fixed stop loss from the first second.
Tight trailing exit
A trailing stop starts early and banks the burst - most trades last only minutes.
One order per level
Each swing level is used once, and an order that does not fill is cancelled after 72 hours.
News and day limit
No new orders around high-impact news, and a daily loss limit stops new trades for the rest of the day.
What you need
Suggested capital = 3 times the worst drawdown in our backtest, or 33 times its biggest single loss if that is more - so the worst stretch we tested costs at most a third of the account, and one losing trade about 3%.
Broker costs
Broker costs and slippage
Every trade pays the spread, and the fill can be a little worse than the order price - that is slippage. Both differ from broker to broker and from day to day, and they change your results - most of all for EAs that take small, fast moves.
In our own tests (broker tick data and the MT5 Strategy Tester), EC Markets showed wider spreads and more slippage per trade than JustMarkets, mainly on Bitcoin and gold. Both are partner brokers and both run our EAs: choose the one that suits you. Costs change - check spread, commission and swap with your broker before you choose.
Which one should you choose? If you want to earn IB rebates on your own trades, EC Markets is the best choice. If you want the lowest cost per trade - better fees and less slippage - JustMarkets is the best choice. The choice is yours.
| Price move per trade | EC Markets | JustMarkets |
|---|---|---|
| Bitcoin (BTCUSD) - typical spread Broker tick data (measured) | $16 | $6 |
| Ethereum (ETHUSD) - typical spread Broker tick data (measured) | $2.00 | $0.98 |
| Gold (XAUUSD) - typical spread Broker tick data (measured) | $0.26 | $0.09 |
| Bitcoin breakout trade - spread + slippage Strategy Tester (simulated) | ~$39 | ~$24 |
Figures are price distance per trade: at 0.01 lot a $1 Bitcoin move is $0.01, a $1 gold move is $1. JustMarkets ECN accounts may charge a commission per lot; EC Markets standard accounts include it in the spread. Our tests used no commission.
Strategy Tester figures are simulated, and live fills can be worse than the tester. Past results do not guarantee future results.
Lot size by deposit
Our recommendation
Under $350? Open a cent account. With $50 on a cent account, BTC Titan trades up to 0.14 cent lots - the worst drawdown in our test would have cost about $16. That is a safe start, and the lot grows with your balance.
$350 or more? A USD account works too: 0.01 lot needs $350, where the worst test drawdown was about $115 (33% of it). Never more lot than the table below: our server holds every account to it.
Our server sets the most this EA can trade from your balance, so the account is never over-lotted. Bigger balance, bigger lot. Running several EAs on one account? Add up their amounts - the balance is shared.
| Deposit | USD account | Cent account |
|---|---|---|
| $50 | - | 0.14 |
| $100 | - | 0.28 |
| $350 | 0.01 | 1.00 |
| $700 | 0.02 | 2.00 |
| $1,750 | 0.05 | 5.00 |
| $3,500 | 0.10 | 10.00 |
| $7,000 | 0.20 | 20.00 |
| $17,500 | 0.50 | 50.00 |
| $35,000 | 1.00 | 100.00 |
Max lot per order for this EA alone. Cent lots are 100 times smaller, so a cent account can start from $50. "-" = deposit too small for this EA.
