Quantitative and macroeconomic FX research findings on EUR/USD price dynamics—demonstrated through transparent, reproducible backtests using the single model–EMM Quinta Medulla Invariance (M5 EMM core quant engine)—supported by a cryptographic audit trail and unedited, single-take live backtest runs.
A single fixed build of the M5 EMM engine (code and signal parameters) is applied uniformly across the entire backtest; no re-optimization or curve fitting is performed. The only variables are the cost model (commission, spread, slippage), the initial balance, and per-trade risk. GBP/USD cross-asset test is conducted with no parameter adjustments, covering 2008–August 2025, including Brexit 2016, to illustrate model robustness and absence of overfitting.
The backtest spans nearly the entire lifetime of the euro as the EU’s single currency (the euro was officially introduced in January 1999; euro banknotes and coins entered circulation in January 2002; retail FX brokers began offering EUR/USD in 2001).

- The M5 EMM engine is proprietary and not published in this ecosystem.
- No fundamental algorithmic details/raw parameter dumps are publicly disclosed.
- Strategy proof of existence is provided via SHA-256 hash, GPG signature, and OTS anchor for the exact engine build used across all backtests (see
results/strategy_existence_evidence). - Reproducibility is demonstrated through:
- Live backtest runs (unedited videos) with matching integrity artifacts.
- Input ↔ result pinning (see the Quick links section above).
