VR Smart Grid is a Smart Trading Expert Advisor capable of closing many market positions in batches with small profits. Closing in small batches allows loss-making positions to be reduced quickly and efficiently. The advisor's algorithm features several well-thought-out trading strategies. The main trading strategy is based on building a network of positions and closing positions in small batches for a given profit. The advisor analyses market positions and divides their lots into batches; it calculates the minimum average price to close a part of the positions. With this approach, the average price is as close to the current market price as possible, and a small fluctuation in price leads to the closure of the calculated part of the positions.

The monitoring of the advisor's work can be found in the author's profile

There are 8 methods of closing market positions programmed into the trading strategy of the VR Smart Grid Expert Advisor. Depending on the chosen method, the advisor can set real or virtual TakeProfit levels. The sequence of lots can be set manually by the trader or calculated automatically using any method, including the Fibonacci calculation. The trader can manually set the distance between positions for each step or calculate it automatically.

The VR Smart Grid Expert Advisor can trade financial instruments fully automatically; all that is left for the trader to do is monitor and adjust the settings. Depending on the settings, VR Smart Grid is able to monitor and follow positions opened by another advisor or trader. The advisor does not consider how a market position was opened via the terminal on a computer or by a trader on a smartphone.

The trading strategy works by controlling and modifying market positions. Let's take a rising trend as an example. The price rises, and the EA will use a trailing stop for a buy market position. The EA will add another position if the StopLoss level is in the profitable zone. With this algorithm, the main goal of the advisor is to trade without risks. In case of a downtrend in the market, the advisor will open positions for averaging with the set lot and set step; VR Smart Grid will close the whole network of positions in small parts at the slightest pullback.

VR Smart Grid Settings

* 4/5 - Denotes that the setting depends on the digits of the financial instrument, for 5-digit brokers 500, for 4-digit brokers 50.

Lot Calculation Settings

  • Lot calculation type (Fixed, percent of balance) - Setting the lot calculation type for the first starting position.
    • Fixed lot - The lot remains unchanged.
    • Lot by percent of balance - Lot is calculated from the balance on the deposit.
  • Starting lot - depending on which parameter is selected in the "Lot calculation type (Fixed, percent of balance)" setting, for "Fixed lot" you have to specify the lot value, e.g., 0.01 or 1.26, for "Lot by percent of balance" you have to specify the percentage, e.g., 0.5 or 5. By specifying 5 in the field, the Expert Advisor automatically calculates a lot based on 5% of the deposit, if the deposit is $100,000, then the lot will be calculated from 5% of $5,000, the lot value will be 21.65.
  • The setting allows the selection of an automatic method for calculating lots for new positions opened against the trend.
    • Starting lot (1,1,1,1) - The lot remains unchanged; the lot specified in the "Starting lot" setting is used for all positions. Example: (0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.01)
    • Martingale lot (1,2,4,8) - The lot is calculated using the following formula = the lot of the previous position is multiplied by 2. Example: (0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08).
    • Fibo lot (1,1,2,3,5) - Lots are calculated according to the Fibonacci number principle, with each new lot equal to the sum of the previous two lots. Example: (0.01, 0.01, & nbsp; 0.02, 0.03, 0.05).
    • Sum of maximal and starting lots (1,2,3,4) - The lot is calculated by adding the lot specified in the "Starting lot" setting and the lot of the last open position. Example: (0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04).
    • Sum of lots of the first and last position (3 +, 4,7,10) - The lot is calculated according to the principle of adding the lots of the first and last positions. Example: (3 +, 4,7,10,13).
  • Manual lot sequence, separator (;) - Manual lot sequence, all values must be separated by (;). Example: (0.01; 0.02; 0.02; 0.06; 0.04)
  • Maximal lot to buy - The setting limits the maximum lot for purchases, if the calculation of the lot management strategy results in a lot higher than that specified in the setting, the Expert Advisor will open a position not exceeding the value specified in the setting.
  • Maximal lot to sell - T The setting limits the maximum lot for selling; if the calculation of the lot management strategy results in a lot higher than that specified in the setting, the Expert Advisor will open a position not exceeding the value specified in the setting.

Averaging Settings

  • Position averaging method - The setting allows selecting an average price calculation strategy, at which point, some or all positions will be closed.
    • All positions - fully, Real TakeProfit - The strategy calculates real TakeProfit levels for all positions. All positions have a real TakeProfit, which is fixed on the broker's server and in the trader's terminal.
    • Two positions Min and Max - fully, Real TakeProfit - The strategy calculates the real TakeProfit levels for the two extreme positions. The position with the highest opening price and the lowest opening price is taken into account.
    • Two positions Min and Pre-Max - fully, Real TakeProfit - The strategy calculates real TakeProfit levels for the last two positions. The last two price positions are taken into account.
    • Smart choice - fully, Real TakeProfit - The strategy analyses the previous three strategies "All positions, Two positions Min and Max, Two positions Min and Pre-Max" to calculate and find the price which is closest to the current market price. The closer the average position price is to the current market price, the more likely it is to close part of the position in profit and reduce the position against the trend. The strategy constantly works with each change in position; the levels are recalculated with each change in the number of positions. Real TakeProfit levels are used for positions.
    • All positions - partially, Virtual TakeProfit - The strategy works similar to the "All positions" strategy, with a few differences. 1 - A virtual TakeProfit level is used, which allows hiding your levels from the broker, 2 - The average price is calculated not for the whole lot but the part of the lot specified in the "Position closing percent" setting. If the position has a lot of 1 and 50% is specified in the setting, 0.5 lot will be taken to calculate the average price.
    • Two positions Min and Max - partially, Virtual TakeProfit - The strategy works similarly to Two positions Min and Max with a few differences. Virtual TakeProfit levels are used, parts of lots are included in calculating the closing price.
    • Two positions Min and Pre-Max - partially, Virtual TakeProfit - The strategy works similarly to the "Two positions Min and Pre-Max" strategy with a few differences. Virtual TakeProfit levels are used, parts of lots are included in calculating the closing price.
    • Smart choice - partially, Virtual TakeProfit - Selecting the best average from the "All positions - partially, Two positions Min and Max - partially, Two positions Min and Pre-Max - partially" algorithms. In this mode, the advisor automatically analyses prices in search of optimal prices in order to quickly reduce trading positions in the market.
    • Do not use averaging (It is not recommended) - The strategy excludes calculating average prices and the closing of positions at total prices or total TakeProfit.
  • Position closing percent - The setting specifies the percentage to close part of the positions, only applies to the strategies "All positions - partially, Two positions Min and Max - partially, Two positions Min and Pre-Max - partially".

A few words from the author of the VR Smart Grid program. Dear colleagues and fellow traders, everyone wants to make money in the financial markets, including me! I started working on the VR Smart Grid Advisor in 2009. I have tried thousands of variations of algorithms and logical operations during my work on the EA. Each new version has been tested on training and demo accounts, as the tester does not show the real picture. Only by observing the performance of the Expert Advisor in real conditions, I upgraded the algorithm from version to version, selecting the best combinations of algorithms. VR Smart Grid Expert Advisor is very different from other similar algorithms, not only because it has eight types of averaging, but also because its settings allow fine-tuning of the automatic trading strategy.

🔥 Together with the program you will receive:

  • Free updates
  • Free technical support
  • Free access to the user community
  • 30 Activations, which will allow you to change your computer or reinstall the operating system 30 times

🔥 Program versions::

Experienced users have noticed that the reasons for failure can be incorrect settings, a large number of financial instruments, too little deposit. Lack of understanding of the program settings and the principles of the program runtime. The most common recommendation is not to trust the strategy tester and run the EA on several demo accounts.

Frequently Asked Questions & Tricks:

  • Recommendation 1: To trade any automatic strategies around the clock, you need a computer that works around the clock. If you are unable to leave your computer working around the clock, we recommend renting a specialised vps server. VPS server will allow your advisor to work around the clock. The server is in fact the same computer as your home computer, only it runs in a remote data centre. Professional administrators monitor its performance. For optimal performance, we recommend vps from Trading-Go
  • Recommendation 2: Conduct testing in conditions as close to real ones as possible. Use demo accounts. Only by testing the Expert Advisor on demo accounts will you be able to determine the effectiveness of a trading strategy qualitatively. The minimum testing period is 2 - 4 working weeks.
  • Recommendation 3: & nbsp;The deposit amount for working as an advisor depends on your ability to manage a trading strategy. It is possible to start trading, and from $ 100 in this case, we recommend using cent accounts. The better you test the advice in the conditions as close as possible to real, the less risks you will experience in the process of work.
  • Recommendation 4: You can always get the current settings and set files in the telegram group, but even having received the settings from a successful user, we strongly recommend checking them in demo conditions. Any configuration files should be thoroughly checked and tested. Each setting is created for a specific broker, financial instrument, spread, commission size, trader's preferences.
  • Recommendation 5: Do not expect great results in a short time, have patience and carefully study the work of the advisor.
  • Recommendation 6: Avoid trading on the news; try to complete the trading activity on the account before the release of strong news.
  • Recommendation 7: The Expert Advisor was developed for any type of broker; we have a list of trusted brokers to work with this Expert Advisor.
  • Recommendation 8: Stay tuned for the advisor in your terminal. When a new update is released, you will receive a notification in your terminal. You can update the program in the terminal in the market tab.

What is activation and why is it needed? Activation is the ability to install a program on one unique computer. When the advisor is loaded into the terminal, one activation is written off for one computer. If you install the advisor on another computer, one more activation will be written off. When using all activations, you will need to purchase the program. By default 30 activations are given, you can install the advisor 30 times on a new computer.

Is there technical support? Yes, there is technical support, you can write your questions directly to the author in the telegram group

Do you adjust the Expert Advisor after purchase? No, there are no such settings that worked all the time, the settings need to be changed depending on the situation in the financial instrument.

What is the profitability of the program? We do not guarantee profit or loss, the result depends on your skills and knowledge of the algorithms of the program. Trading in the financial markets is a risky activity, you can make a profit as well as take a loss.

Which leverage to use? The lower the leverage the lower the risks, originally the EA was designed for 1 to 500 accounts, but you can use different leverage. We recommend testing the program on a demo account with the desired leverage.

How many accounts can I use the program on? There are no restrictions on the number of accounts, there are no brokers.

I found a site where the program is cheaper!? You can buy the original copy of the program only here in the Mql5 market, any other offers are fraudulent.

Can I get a demo version of the program? You can write to technical support to the author in the online chat in the telegram group

Can I buy the program directly from the author?  No, you can buy the program only in the Mql5 market.

Can I get a discount? Discounts are not available to individual buyers. Discounts are periodically arranged for all programs, you can add the program to your favorites and follow the price change.

I did not find the answer to my question, where to ask?  write to the technical support to the author in the online chat in the telegram group

Your result directly depends on your understanding of the algorithms of the automatic trading strategy.

Important! When testing the program in the strategy tester, please keep the following points in mind:
