Gold/Silver Ratio Trend
Overview
Ratio Trend follows the gold/silver ratio trend: when the ratio's EMA trends, it runs a dollar-neutral pair - long the strong leg, short the weak. Attach to the XAUUSD H4 chart and it trades both legs automatically.
It is the mirror image of Gold-Silver StatArb (which bets on ratio reversion): StatArb wins when the ratio mean-reverts, Ratio Trend wins when it extends. The two have negatively correlated return streams, making them natural portfolio partners. Ratio up = gold strong / silver weak -> long gold, short silver; aligned notional = market-neutral, profiting on relative strength, not direction.
Strategy Tester Report
Returned 0 trades in the 2021-2026 backtest: the gold/silver spread filters (60/40 pts) were tighter than typical spreads, blocking entries. Relaxed in source; verified re-run queued pending terminal re-login.
