Tolling

A calendar EA that works a single ninety-minute window and is flat the rest of the day.

Settlement buying on gotobi dates is concentrated into the Tokyo fix. Tolling waits for that rate to be printed and sells into what is left, then closes before the London session has an opinion.

Strategy logic

How Tolling Trades

It sells GBP/JPY the minute the Tokyo fix is printed on a gotobi date and closes about ninety minutes later.

01 Market

When it trades

Settlement demand lands on fixed dates

Japanese companies settle invoices on gotobi dates — days divisible by five, plus the last business day. Their banks buy foreign currency to fund those payments, and the reference rate, the TTM, is printed at 09:55 Tokyo time. The demand is on a calendar, so it arrives whether or not the market is trending.

02 Setup

What it looks for

The morning of a gotobi date

The EA does nothing until one of those dates. It checks the calendar, checks that nothing is already open, and checks that the spread is inside its limit — the fix minute is exactly when GBP/JPY spreads widen, so this check does real work here.

03 Entry

How it enters

Sells the minute the rate is printed

It sells at 00:55 UTC — the minute the fix lands. Every published trade is a short and every one of them enters at that minute. There is no signal to read: the clock is the trigger, and the position is taken after the buying it is fading has already happened.

04 Risk

How it protects

A tight stop for a short holding

A 20-pip stop sits behind the entry. It can be that tight because the trade is not meant to last: the clock closes it about ninety minutes later. Losses in the record cluster well inside the stop rather than at it.

05 Exit

How it exits

Out before London has an opinion

At 02:25 UTC the EA closes whatever it holds. Most published trades end there rather than at the stop or the target. Nothing is carried into the afternoon and nothing is held overnight — the swap on this record is zero for that reason.

None — no averaging down, no grid, no martingale
Protective exit
Fixed 20-pip stop, plus a hard time exit at 02:25 server time

Market behavior

Performs best in

  • Gotobi mornings where the fix buying fades once the rate is set
  • Ordinary Tokyo sessions with no fresh headline driving the pound
  • Normal spread conditions — the entry is skipped when the spread is wide

Can struggle in

  • Mornings when the pound keeps running after the fix instead of easing back
  • Headline-driven sessions where GBP/JPY gaps through a 20-pip stop
  • Runs of gotobi dates that all go the same wrong way — the record contains ten losses in a row

All published inputs

  • Magic numberMagicNumber
    Default
    679031
    Suggested range

    The ID this EA stamps on its own orders so it never touches positions it did not open. Change it only if another EA on the same account already uses 679031.

  • Max slippage (pips)Slippage
    Default
    3
    Suggested range

    How far the fill may slip before the order is rejected. The entry is a market order placed at a fixed minute, right when the fix prints, so this is the moment of the day when the spread is least friendly.

  • One entry per barOncePerBar
    Default
    true
    Suggested range

    Allows at most one entry per M1 bar. The strategy only ever wants a single entry per gotobi date, and the published record was measured with this on.

  • Lot sizeLotSize
    Default
    0.1
    Suggested range

    Position size of the one position this EA holds. The published record was measured at 0.1 lot on a 10,000 USD balance — every trade in the ledger is that size. GBP/JPY moves quickly, so the same lot swings more than it would on a quieter pair.

  • Stop loss (pips)SL_Pips_n13
    Default
    20
    Suggested range

    Distance of the protective stop. It is tight because the trade is short-lived: the position is closed by the clock about ninety minutes later, so the stop only has to cover one burst against it.

  • Take profit (pips)TP_Pips_n13
    Default
    30
    Suggested range

    Distance of the profit target, set wider than the stop. Neither level is what usually ends the trade — the clock is — but when the move after the fix runs, this is where it is banked.

  • Include month endGotobiMonthEnd_n8
    Default
    true
    Suggested range

    Treats the last business day of the month as a gotobi date in addition to the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th and 25th. Turning it off removes about one trade a month from the pattern the record was measured on.

  • Max positionsMaxPositions_n9
    Default
    1
    Suggested range

    Hard cap on how many positions can be open at once. It is 1, and every published trade respects it — there is no averaging down and no second entry while one is running.

  • Max spread (points)MaxSpread_n10
    Default
    50
    Suggested range

    Skips the entry when the broker spread is wider than this at 00:55 UTC. That minute is exactly when GBP/JPY spreads widen, so a value well below 50 points will silently skip trades the record contains.

  • Close-all time (HHMM)CloseAllThreshold_9000
    Default
    225.0
    Suggested range

    Server time at which the EA closes whatever it holds, written as HHMM — 225 means 02:25. That is about ninety minutes after the fix, and it is what ends most published trades.

  • Server GMT offset (winter)GMT_Offset_Winter
    Default
    0
    Suggested range

    Your broker's server offset from GMT outside daylight saving. The record was measured on a GMT+0 server. Get this wrong and both the entry and the exit land at the wrong hour — which makes it a different strategy, not a worse one.

  • Server GMT offset (summer)GMT_Offset_Summer
    Default
    0
    Suggested range

    Your broker's server offset from GMT during daylight saving. Same warning as the winter value — this EA decides everything by the clock.

  • DST ruleDST_Rule
    Default
    0
    Suggested range

    Which daylight-saving calendar the server follows: 0 = US, 1 = EU, 2 = none. The published record used 0 on a GMT+0 server, where it has no effect; on a server that does shift, pick the rule your broker actually uses.

Frequently asked questions

Does it use martingale, grid or averaging down?
No. It opens one position and never adds to it. There is no lot progression after a loss — every published trade is the same size.
How was it tested?
In the MetaTrader 5 strategy tester on Exness M1 history for GBP/JPY, every tick based on real ticks, from January 2019 to April 2026. The full trade ledger is published on this page, and a separate verification window runs from the cutoff onward.
Are swap and commission included in the published figures?
Yes, and on this record swap is zero — we measured every deal in the report rather than assuming it. The position is opened and closed inside the same Tokyo morning, so it is never held past the rollover that charges swap.
How often does it trade?
About six or seven times a month. It only acts on gotobi dates and month end, and it holds a position for roughly ninety minutes on each of those days.
Why does it only sell?
It is trading what happens after the fix, not the fix itself. The settlement buying is finished once the rate is printed, and this build takes the other side of what is left. There is no buy path in it.
What is the worst stretch in the record?
Ten losing trades in a row. With six or seven trades a month that is close to two months of going backwards, and it has to be survivable at whatever lot you choose.
Do I have to change the exit time for my broker?
Only through the GMT offset inputs. Both times are expressed in server time, so if your broker's server is not GMT+0 you must set the offsets — otherwise the EA trades a different ninety minutes of the day.
