Asso Technologies – Nexus EA | AI-Powered Gold Trading System

Hi everyone,

My name is Alfa Mike, founder of Asso Technologies. I'm an engineer, and for the last two years I've been building Nexus EA, an automated trading system focused exclusively on XAUUSD.

I'm new here on Forex Factory, so please forgive me if I'm still learning how the forum works. I joined because this community is one of the few places where real traders share honest feedback — something I've been missing for a long time.

I created this thread to share my journey transparently: the logic, the results, the updates, and an open conversation with anyone interested in algo trading.
All discussion will remain within the Commercial Content rules.

What is Nexus EA
Nexus EA is not just another gold bot. It's a complete trading ecosystem built from scratch, combining AI-assisted analysis, institutional market structure, and multi-layer risk management.
Below is a high-level overview of the core components.

AI-Powered Decision Making

1. DeepSeek AI integration for real-time market analysis
2. Multi-timeframe pattern recognition (M5 + H1)
3. AI confidence scoring with automatic technical fallback
4. AI receives full market context: price ranges, swing levels, session data, volatility regime, 7-day level history

Institutional Market Structure

1. Order Block (OB) & Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection
2. BOS/CHoCH as the structural authority
3. Institutional zone identification

Why I Opened This Thread

1. To share my work honestly
2. To receive feedback from experienced traders
3. To improve the EA with real-world input
4. To build a small community of serious, like-minded people

Commercial Model
I offer the EA on a monthly subscription — not a one-time price.
If someone doesn't like it or doesn't see value, they can simply stop paying and leave an honest review. Transparency first.

What You Will NOT Find Here

1. Unrealistic promises
2. Aggressive marketing
3. "Perfect" backtests
4. Hype or sensationalism

What You WILL Find

1. Transparency
2. Real results
3. Technical discussion
4. Consistent updates
5. Respectful communication

Let's Talk

Has anyone here run EAs on funded accounts? I'd love to hear what challenges you've faced.
If you have questions, doubts, suggestions, or want to see something specific, feel free to ask.
I'm here to exchange ideas and improve.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this.

no backtest ?? 10 days demo account
what is this ?

Thank you for your feedback.

A few points to clarify:
On backtesting: This EA uses real-time AI analysis (DeepSeek API) to evaluate market structure, order blocks, and fair value gaps on every tick. Traditional backtesting is not possible because the AI component requires live API calls that cannot be replicated on historical data. Any backtest would only test the grid mechanics without the AI decision-making, which is the core of the system — and that would be misleading. If any AI-powered EA shows you "perfect" backtests, I'd question what exactly was tested.

On the demo period: The demo account shown is the beginning of forward testing, which is the only honest way to validate an AI-driven system. We are setting up verified tracking through Myfxbook and Darwinex Zero, and I am connecting my real $1,000 account so everyone can follow live performance — profits and losses, nothing hidden.

We choose real money and verified tracking over polished simulations. That's the standard we hold ourselves to.

Stay tuned for verified results.

I want to add some context for full transparency, as I briefly mentioned in my opening post.

This project started two years ago. Significant personal investment went into research, development, and AI integration — building something I genuinely believe in. Real forward testing began recently, and the FTMO demo accounts you see are the first public results. I'm presenting where we are right now, not selective historical data.

Scaling up takes time and resources. This is something I build alongside my regular work and life commitments, so progress will be steady and transparent. As things stabilize, I'll be adding more verified accounts progressively. If early subscriptions come in, that process accelerates — either way, the results will be public and independently tracked.

I welcome questions, feedback, and constructive discussion — that's why I'm here. Everyone is free to follow along, watch the verified results as they come in, and judge for themselves. The data will speak louder than any promise I could make.

Update:

The first verified account is now linked to this thread. To be precise, it is a Darwinex Zero account, a regulated (FCA) platform with a track record, not a standard demo. After 15 days of consistent performance, the first capital allocation becomes available.

This provides everyone with a transparent and independently verified benchmark to evaluate the EA's performance in real time. The cost of entry is minimal: the monthly subscription to Darwinex Zero is very affordable, making it accessible to anyone who wants to build a verified track record.

Just a quick update: after years of development and testing, the EA went live on March 18 on a real Darwinex Zero account. Early days, but so far so good.

I know two weeks isn't enough to draw conclusions — and I'm not asking you to.
I certainly don’t expect you to rush out and buy it, but I must admit it would be lovely to grow together, especially with a project well-developed as I believe mine to be.

What I would genuinely appreciate is your questions and challenges. If you're curious how it handles a specific scenario, a news event, or a particular market condition — ask me.
It'll help me improve it and give you a real picture of what it can and can't do.

Any feedback or suggestions on the approach are more than welcome.
