Sick of grid EAs that print pretty curves for a month, then nuke accounts overnight? You’re not alone. Forex Hacked V2.5 EDU EA MT4 is our “tamed grid” approach: the same multi-order logic traders like for range markets, but wrapped in hard risk caps, daily loss guards, and saner exits. Best bit—it’s 100% free on ForexFactory.cc and fully powered by YoForex (yep, the parent brand behind the testing, updates, and real support).


What makes this “EDU” build different is restraint. The EA places planned, spaced entries (grid-style), but limits exposure with max orders, ATR-aware distance, and an optional micro-multiplier that’s capped by equity rules. No “infinite recovery” nonsense. When conditions change, the system can pause, flatten, or trail out; your equity guard always has the final say. Is it still a grid? Sure—but one you can actually sleep with, coz the defaults prioritize survival over heroics.


Pairs & Timeframes: Best on majors (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY) and gold (XAUUSD) when spreads are tight. We ship presets for M15–H1. If you’re unsure, start EURUSD H1; it’s smoother and forgiving during learning.

Backtest Proof & Live Performance


We’re not promising fairy tales. The YoForex team ran robust backtests on EURUSD H1 and GBPUSD M30, plus a volatile set on XAUUSD M15. Tick modeling with variable spreads and a slippage curve was used to better reflect real fills.


Backtest (illustrative baseline, default risk):



  1. Period: Jan 2022 – Jul 2025

  2. Pairs/TFs: EURUSD (H1), GBPUSD (M30), XAUUSD (M15)

  3. Approach: Grid with capped steps, ATR spacing, micro-multiplier OFF by default

  4. Profit Factor: ~1.35–1.55 depending on pair & regime

  5. Max DD: typically 6–11% on default risk; gold can spike higher without spread guard

  6. Avg Basket Length: 2–4 orders, capped at 5 (default)

  7. Equity Curve: Broadly stair-step with shallow pullbacks; DD events curtailed by daily loss stop


Forward/live notes (YoForex desk):



  1. ECN brokers with tight spreads behaved closest to backtests

  2. The daily loss guard was the MVP during surprise news weeks

  3. On gold, the spread cap + session filter made a big difference; widen them at your peril

  4. Using trailing exits instead of fixed TP improved risk-adjusted returns in trending months


Installation & Setup



  1. Download the EA from ForexFactory.cc →
    ???? https://forexfactory.cc/ea/forex-hacked-v2-5-edu-ea-mt4

  2. Copy the file (.ex4/.mq4) into MT4 → MQL4 → Experts.

  3. Restart MT4 or Navigator → Refresh.

  4. Open EURUSD H1 (starter pick) and attach Forex Hacked V2.5 EDU EA MT4.

  5. Enable Algo Trading and, if prompted, allow DLL imports (MT4 standard).

  6. Load the recommended set file included in the download.

  7. Keep news pause ON at first; tighten spread cap if your broker is wide.

  8. Consider a VPS for 24/5 stability.


Starter presets (safe learning path):



  1. EURUSD H1 – Conservative: Max 5 orders, micro-multiplier OFF, daily loss 2% cap.

  2. GBPUSD M30 – Balanced: Max 6 orders, micro-multiplier 1.2x capped, news pause ON.

  3. XAUUSD M15 – Cautious: Wider ATR spacing, lower risk per order, tighter spread guard, session filter ON.


Capital & leverage: You can demo with anything; for live testing, $300–$500 is fine with conservative risk. Focus on risk per order (e.g., 0.3–0.7%), not lot size bravado. Scale after a few steady weeks.

Disclaimer: Trading forex/CFDs carries risk. Grid logic magnifies both returns and losses if uncapped. Past performance isn’t a guarantee of future results. Always demo-test first, then go live with small risk. If using a prop firm, confirm EA & grid policy plus daily DD rules.
