Gaps EA

[FXMan77]

Hi,

Gaps EA need improvements.

If the gap is greater or equal than 3 pips, it will open an order. The TP is determined from the gap too. If it is higher than 6 pips, TP will be set 3 pips as the last three trades said. Otherwise TP remains 1 pip. I bet that this EA will not place TP that is higher than 3 pips. The gaps occurs when prices jump in response to sudden imbalance of buy or sell orders.

Needs a cloaked stop loss.. Coz most brokers dont accept the standard stops.

Static or dynamic? With ATR?

I would not even bother with trying to pick up 1 or 3 pips, that's like running in front of the bus trying to pick up a quarter off the ground.

You have the right idea though, trying to exploit a temporary imbalance in the system. You just are not implementing it with enough scientific sophistication that will allow it to be profitable.
