I build Expert Advisors, indicators and small tools for MT4 and MT5, mostly around gold (XAUUSD) and risk management. Three of my own EAs are in the Market (Kernvio series) and I run a public signal, so I've seen what goes wrong once code hits a real broker: tick value on gold, spread spikes at - Version: 1.1

Kernvio Euro Recoil is a basket EA for EURUSD on M15. It trades against fresh overbought and oversold impulses, adds legs with equal volume and closes the whole basket together. No martingale, no hedging.
The EA looks at EURUSD once per completed M15 candle. When RSI(7) has just pushed above 70 or below 30 on a candle with a body of at least 5 pips, and price sits at the edge of its recent range, it takes the other side.
If price keeps going, it adds another leg at least 6 pips away, up to 9 legs. Every leg has the same volume. Buy and sell baskets are never open at the same time. The basket closes at 12 pips per leg from the average entry, or earlier through a trailing stop. A basket stop of 300 pips in total and a maximum basket age of 96 hours limit a bad trade.
It does not open new baskets the day before an FOMC rate decision and three days after it, and it waits after unusually volatile days. Live it reads the FOMC dates from the MQL5 economic calendar.
Auto Risk sets the lot size for you. You choose how much drawdown you accept, 20 percent by default. The EA takes the worst drawdown it had in four years of real tick testing, adds a safety factor of 1.5 and works out the lot per leg from your balance. On small accounts it trades the minimum lot of 0.01 and writes the expected drawdown to the journal.
Backtest with real ticks, RoboForex ECN, July 2022 to October 2026, 1,000 USD start, Auto Risk 20 percent: 2,118 trades, net profit 777 USD, profit factor 1.37, maximum equity drawdown 9.6 percent. At a fixed 0.01 lot all nine half-years were positive.
Please read this as well. The settings were chosen on that same period. In a separate check the strategy was optimised on 2022 to 2024 only and then run on 2025 to 2026 without changes. It stayed profitable but was clearly weaker, and the first half of 2025 was negative. Expect something closer to that, and run it on a demo account first.
Attach it to one EURUSD chart, any timeframe. Hedging account recommended. On netting accounts it trades single positions without the grid.
