Strategy: Mean Reversion (Pullback Trading)
Overview of the Strategy
BB-RSI Mean Reversion EA trades cleverly on pullbacks by detecting short-term market fatigue using a combination of:
-
Bollinger Bands (BB) to identify statistical price extremes
-
RSI Oscillator to confirm oversold or overbought levels
-
ATR-based Stop-Loss to dynamically manage risk
-
Optional EMA filter to avoid overly volatile moves
-
Fixed Risk Management: Precisely defined per-trade risk (recommended 1%), with capped exposure
The EA aims for consistent, moderate returns—not a get-rich-quick approach.
Important Notice
Strongly Recommended: Use this EA primarily on EURUSD H1.
Acceptable but less optimal: USDCAD, GBPUSD
(Expect reduced performance—profit factor and drawdown consistency may vary.)
Not Recommended: Exotic pairs, metals (XAUUSD/XAGUSD), or cryptocurrencies—they are unlikely to be profitable.
