GoldenStar MT5 — Automated Grid Trading Advisor
A fully automated trading robot based on a grid strategy with averaging. Entry direction is determined by a proprietary trend indicator. The advisor includes a control panel, spread monitor, and drawdown reduction algorithm.
HOW IT WORKS
The advisor uses a proprietary indicator to determine price direction:
-
Upward signal — a buy position is opened.
-
Downward signal — a sell position is opened.
After the first order is opened, the advisor builds a grid:
-
The first order is opened with the initial lot.
-
If price moves against the position by a specified distance, the next order is opened.
-
The lot of each subsequent order is multiplied by a coefficient (martingale).
-
The distance between orders can increase as the series grows (dynamic mode).
Positions are closed based on one of the following conditions:
-
Take Profit (adjustable via the panel).
-
Stop Loss.
-
Trailing stop (adjustable via the panel).
-
Reverse trend signal.
-
Reduction algorithm — closes the first and last orders of the series to reduce risk.
-
Manually via the control panel.
