Test Your Own EURUSD Momentum Strategy — Free Nova FI Trader (5M Preset Included)
Test Your Own EURUSD Momentum Strategy — Free Nova FI Trader (5M Preset Included)
Nova FI Trader is a fully functional Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5 built around a simple yet powerful idea: trade when market momentum is confirmed, not assumed.
Most automated strategies either react too late or enter trades when the market lacks participation. Nova FI Trader filters out low-conviction moves and focuses only on signals backed by actual price momentum.
How Nova FI Trader Works
The core logic is based on the Force Index (FI), a momentum indicator that combines price movement and volume:
- Buy signal: current closed bar > threshold AND previous closed bar < threshold
- Sell signal: current closed bar < threshold AND previous closed bar > threshold
All of this is fully configurable:
- Timeframe for the indicator
- FI period
- Calculation method: Simple, Exponential, Smoothed, Linear Weighted
- Threshold value
The Nova Ecosystem handles the rest: risk management, exit logic, filters, and more.
