Understanding the Strategy
AI Neural Network (LSTM)
The EA uses a Long Short-Term Memory neural network designed for EURUSD H1 analysis.
Analyzes:
- Price patterns (OHLC)
- RSI (14 period)
- MACD
- ATR (Average True Range)
- Bollinger Bands
- EMA (100 period)
Output: BUY, SELL, or HOLD signals with confidence levels
Dynamic Risk Management
Stop Loss and Take Profit are calculated dynamically based on market volatility:
- SL = ATR × 3.5 (recommended multiplier)
- TP = SL × 0.35 (recommended ratio)
- Range: 50-100 pips for SL
Design Note:
Dynamic SL/TP adapts to market volatility using ATR. This approach is recommended over fixed SL/TP for EURUSD H1 trading.
Time Filter
Trades only during high-liquidity sessions:
- London: 8:00-17:00 GMT
- New York: 13:00-22:00 GMT
- Overlap period: Maximum liquidity
Design Rationale:
Time filtering focuses trading on high-liquidity sessions (London/NY). This approach targets periods with better execution conditions and avoids low-liquidity periods.
Selective Trade Execution
The EA is designed to be selective in its trade execution based on AI confidence threshold rather than high frequency trading.

Troubleshooting
EA Not Taking Any Trades
Check the following:
- This EA is selective in its trading, so it may not trade for extended periods depending on market conditions.
- Is Algo Trading enabled? (Tools → Options → Expert Advisors)
- Correct symbol? (EURUSD only)
- Correct timeframe? (H1 only)
- Within trading hours? (Check Enable_Time_Filter and Server_GMT_Offset)
- Daily limit reached? (Check Max_Daily_Trades)
- Spread too high? (Check Max_Spread_Points)
- Too soon after last trade? (Check Min_Bars_Between_Trades)
Trades Closing Too Early
Possible Causes:
- Trailing Stop too tight (increase Trailing_Stop)
- Take Profit too close (check TP_SL_Ratio)
- Stop Loss too tight (check ATR_SL_Multiplier)
loss Range Differs from Expected
Verify Settings:
- Is Use_Dynamic_SLTP = true?
- Is Enable_Time_Filter = true?
- Is ATR_SL_Multiplier = 3.5?
- Using EURUSD H1?
Insufficient Money Error
Solution:
- Reduce Lot_Size
- Increase account balance
- Minimum $1,000 recommended for 0.01 lot
Invalid Volume Error
Solution:
- Check broker's minimum lot size
- Ensure Lot_Size meets broker requirements
- Some brokers require 0.01 minimum, others allow smaller
