RevertIQ - Regime-Aware Counter-Trend Grid
RevertIQ is a counter-trend mean-reversion engine with an adaptive averaging
grid. It is not a blind grid that opens and keeps adding regardless of context.
Entries are gated by a discrete counter-trend signal, grid averaging stops when
the trend flips, and a regime gate filters out unfavorable market conditions
before any order is opened.
Set files:
RevertIQ_AUDCAD_M15_OPTIMAL.set
RevertIQ_EURAUD_M15_OPTIMAL.set
RevertIQ_EURCAD_M15_OPTIMAL.set
RevertIQ_EURJPY_M15_OPTIMAL.set
RevertIQ_GBPUSD_M15_OPTIMAL.set
How it works - three pillars
1. Counter-trend entry signal, not a random first order.
RevertIQ fades sustained one-directional pressure. Three entry modes:
- ConsecutiveBars: enter against a run of N consecutive same-direction bars
(classic mean reversion).
- LRB Fade: fade a large bar that closes near its extreme (large reversal bar).
- LRB Continuation: enter with a large bar in the trend direction.
Entry size, direction and timing are decided by the signal first.
2. Adaptive grid that respects the trend.
When the entry goes against the position, RevertIQ adds orders on a grid whose
spacing is ATR-adaptive (it breathes with volatility, not fixed pips). Grid
management can be Fix, Lots-Sum, All-Lots-Sum, or Martingale. Crucially, grid
averaging stops when the trend changes (StopGridOnTrendChange), so the EA does
not keep loading into a confirmed trend against it. The trend is read from an
adaptive MAMA/FAMA + Aroon filter, faster than a plain moving average at
detecting phase shifts.
3. Regime gate and per-symbol risk isolation.
A regime gate admits entries only in ideal fade conditions: a London/NY hour
window, an ATR volatility floor, a minimum signal-bar body size, an ADX floor,
and optionally alignment with the H1 EMA50 trend. Risk is isolated per symbol:
a percentage loss limit per instrument can close positions and stop trading
for the day or permanently. A senior H4 trend filter, a basket trailing stop
in profit (commission-aware), and a virtual take-profit target on the basket
complete the risk layer.

- MAMA/FAMA + Aroon adaptive trend filter; grid stops averaging on trend change.
- ATR-adaptive grid spacing; four grid management modes.
- Regime gate: hour window, ATR floor, signal-bar body filter, ADX floor, H1 trend.
- Per-symbol loss limit (close-and-stop or stop-only; daily or permanent).
- Senior timeframe (H4) trend filter.
- Basket trailing stop with broker commission accounting; virtual basket TP.
- Multi-symbol mode across Market Watch, or single-symbol; pair blacklist.
- Four trading-session windows, weekday filter, Friday freeze and close.
- One trade per bar, max orders per basket, post-TP pause, signal cooldown.
- Max-spread guard, netting-account guard.
- On-chart dashboard: per-symbol status and profit analytics (today, week, month).
- Money management by risk percent with optional max-lot cap.
How to use
RevertIQ is designed for M15 and works on FX majors, several crosses, and gold.
It is not a plug-and-play system: the provided preset files are tuned per
instrument and the EA has many parameters. Re-optimize on your own broker data,
validate out of sample, and forward-test on a demo account before going live.
Run one chart per symbol in single-symbol mode (recommended), or one chart in
multi-symbol mode to trade the whole Market Watch set.
Risks you must understand
- Averaging grid. In a strong trend against an open basket, drawdown accumulates.
The basket loss limit and the trend-change grid stop reduce this, they do not
eliminate it. The Martingale grid option increases risk materially; use it only
with full understanding.
- Counter-trend mean reversion underperforms in persistent trending regimes. The
regime gate and trend filter cut exposure in such conditions but cannot prevent
losing streaks entirely.
- Many parameters mean overfitting is a real risk. Always re-optimize on your own
data and confirm on an out-of-sample period.
- The EA is spread-sensitive; it respects the Max Spread setting and will skip
orders when spread exceeds it.
- Past performance does not guarantee future results. Trade with capital you can
afford to lose.
