Squid Grid AI MT5 is a gold Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5, published by Christophe Trouillas. Its linked live signal covers 392 trades in 8 months, at a profit factor of 3.2 and a win rate of 86.73%. A win and a loss are 2× apart, so one loss undoes that many wins.

Squid Grid AI MT5 signal at a glance

The three panels from the MQL5 signal page, with the figures the marketplace itself plots. Its drawdown axis is the relative drawdown by balance — the same measure this site computes from the trade history further down. The equity figure, which counts floating losses on positions still open, is a different number and is printed beside it in the specification.

There is a free download, and it is the demo MQL5 hosts on the listing itself. It is the full algorithm, restricted to the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester — you can backtest it on your own broker's history for nothing. What it cannot do is trade a live or demo account. That needs the paid version.

What Squid Grid AI MT5's record shows

Worth knowing

Grid / basket positions

Up to 7 positions were held on EURJPY at the same time. Baskets like this share one adverse move, so the account's real exposure is the whole ladder rather than any single trade.

Unbounded losses

The worst loss is 111.8× the typical one. Losses that fan out like this are the signature of a strategy with no fixed stop, though the export has no stop-loss column to confirm it directly.

How Squid Grid AI MT5 trades

Read off the record rather than the sales page: how long it holds, which way it leans, and what market the figures actually describe.

How long it stays in

Positions last 1.0 days on average, which makes this a swing system whatever the listing calls it. Holding time decides how much the spread costs you and how much overnight risk you are carrying.

Which way it trades

Its 392 trades split 48.0% long to 52.0% short, so the result does not rest on the market having gone one way.

Spread across markets

It is listed for XAUUSD, EURUSD, USDCAD, EURJPY. The published figures are the combined result, so a strong market can carry a weak one inside the same total.

08

Where the money came from

The same totals the listing publishes, divided into the numbers that say whether an edge is real and whether it would survive being run on a different account.

Money won against money lost

It won $1,072 and lost $335, a profit factor of 3.47. For every $1.00 it handed back it took $3.47 in gross profit.

Where the edge comes from

It wins 79.3% of the time, but its average win is only 0.8× its average loss. The edge is frequency, not size — it needs about 54% of trades to win simply to break even.

What one trade is worth

Averaged over 392 trades, each returned $1.88 on an account that opened at $1,000. That is the figure to multiply by your own trade count — not the headline growth.

Growth, per month

+93.7% total over 8 months compounds to +8.8% a month. The monthly rate is the comparable number: a total says as much about how long an account ran as about how well it traded.

09

What could go wrong with Squid Grid AI MT5

Every figure here is already in the record. These are the parts of it a summary table averages away.

Two drawdowns, not one

Drawdown reached 23.5% on equity and 3.6% on closed trades. The two sitting close together is what you want — it means open losses were not being parked out of sight.

The worst single trade

Its worst trade lost $44.63, 6.9× the average loss of $6.44. The account did not grow enough over the record to explain that spread, so the spread is in the losses themselves. A tail still that long after the adjustment is the signature of a loss with no floor.

Its longest cold spell

It lost 3 trades in a row at some point. At the average loss that is about $19, or 1.9% of the $1,000 the account opened with. Assume it happens again, and ask whether you would still be running it on the far side.

Profit against the worst dip

It made 16.4× its deepest drawdown in total profit. Above one means the record has more than covered its own worst stretch.

10

What Squid Grid AI MT5 needs from your account

Cost and account size, against the drawdown this record already produced.

The account these figures came from

Every figure above comes from one account that opened with $990 at CapitalPointTrading-MT5-4. A different size, a different broker or different settings is a different result.

11

What buyers say

Counted from the reviews MQL5 publishes on the listing. We count the subjects raised and the ratings given; we do not reprint the reviews.

What the marketplace scores it

4.63 out of 5 from 10 reviews on MQL5. That is a rating of the purchase — the seller, the support, the documentation — and only indirectly of the trading.

The rating, split three ways

MQL5 scores it 4.60 on description, 4.50 on reliability and usability, and 4.80 on support. Buyers rate reliability and usability lowest, which is the part the headline number averages away.

What buyers actually write about

Across the 10 most recent reviews, results and profit comes up most often — 4 of them mention it. Results and profit is the subject appearing most in the negative ones.

How the recent ones split

Of the 10 reviews the listing serves, 7 rate it four stars or better and 1 rate it two and a half or worse. This is the most recent page rather than every review ever left, which means it describes the version on sale now.

12

Who maintains it

How recently it was touched, how long it has been sold, and what the marketplace record says about the seller.

Whether anyone is still working on it

Version 1.3, last updated 13 May 2026 — about 5 months ago. A system still being touched is one whose author is still answering for it.

How long it has been on sale

Listed since 28 Nov 2025, about 11 months. Long enough to have traded through more than one kind of market.

Who is behind it

MQL5 gives Christophe Trouillas its badges for “Sold more than 100 products”. Those count marketplace volume, not trading results — a seller can move a great many copies of something that loses money.

Squid Grid AI MT5: common questions

The four things people search for about this product, answered from the record rather than from the sales page.

Is there a Squid Grid AI MT5 free download?

Yes — a free demo. Squid Grid AI MT5 is sold on the MQL5 Market, and every listing there carries a demo you can download at no cost. It is the full algorithm limited to the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester, so you can backtest it on your own broker history for nothing, but it will not trade a live or demo account. The full version is $29.99 from us, against $299 on the MQL5 Market. MQL5 records 369 downloads of it. Anything advertising the paid version as a free live download is a pirated build — usually modified, always unsupported, and a common way to lose an account.

Does Squid Grid AI MT5 have a live signal?

Yes. Squid Grid AI MT5 publishes a live signal on MQL5 covering 391 trades over about 8 months, and MQL5 verifies it from the broker's own trade feed rather than from the seller. It shows 8.8% a month compounded, a deepest fall of 3.8% and a profit factor of 3.47. Every figure on this page is recomputed from that record, and the page links it so you can check the arithmetic yourself.

Is there a Squid Grid AI MT5 backtest?

Not one from us, and deliberately. A backtest is run by whoever is selling the product, on history and settings they choose, and it can be tuned until it looks good — which is why a flawless backtest and a poor live record so often sit on the same page. Instead this page measures 391 real trades over about 8 months of forward results, which is stronger evidence than any backtest: nobody can re-run it until it looks good. If you want a backtest, run your own: the free MetaTrader 5 demo does exactly that on your own broker's spreads, which is the only backtest whose assumptions you control.

Is there a Squid Grid AI MT5 Myfxbook review?

Not that we can verify. Squid Grid AI MT5 is not tracked on Myfxbook, and we will not point at a third-party page we cannot confirm belongs to this product — a name match is not proof. Its verified record is the MQL5 signal linked on this page, which serves the same purpose: an independent platform reading the broker's trade feed directly rather than taking the seller's word for it. Reviews on the MQL5 listing itself rate the purchase — the seller, the support, the documentation — rather than the trading, which is what the measured figures on this page are for.
