Summary of EA Requirements

Specification

I’m considering having an Expert Advisor (EA) developed and wanted to share a brief summary of the project’s key requirements before we move forward.

Overview:

Need an EA for MetaTrader 5 (MQL5) that trades major forex pairs on a 15-minute or longer time frame. The strategy should be built using the MT5 Expert Framework and include several layers of entry and exit filters to ensure high-probability trades.

Key Components:

  1. Signal Generation:

    • Trend Filter:
      Uses a 100‑period EMA on the H1 or other time frames to determine the broad trend.

    • RSI Reversal:

    • Breakout/Breakdown:


    • Market Regime (ADX):

    • Moving Average Crossover :

    • Volume Filter :

  2. Trade Management & Exits:

    • Partial Exit:
      If a trade makes 1.5 times the risk (1.5R) in profit, exit part of the position to lock in gains.

    • Time-Based Exit:
      If a trade remains open for more than 1 hour without hitting profit or stop-loss, automatically close it to avoid prolonged stagnation.

    • Dynamic Money Management:
      Position sizing is calculated based on risking 2% of the current account equity per trade, so as the account grows, the lot size increases proportionally.


More specific parameters will be given once the right candidate is chosen. 

Best regards,

I want to create an EA that will take trades according to a trading zone condition. The logic will start with the identification of a trading zone for BUY and SELL in the EA. After the trading zone has been identified, then the EA will use the current time frame prices to determine if the market will be a BUY or SELL. The market will be a BUY if the low price range goes above the lowest price after the installation
