JuanTraderFX Divergence Pullback Sp500

Divergencia SMA JuanTraderFX trades the S&P 500 on 5-minute candles, both long and short.
It looks for the moment a move runs out of steam and enters only after the market confirms the turn.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Exhaustion: price prints a new extreme but the RSI does not confirm it (divergence in the extreme zone).
2. Structure break: a candle closes through the last opposite swing and the fast moving average. It only trades when the slow average is far away, so there is room to run.
3. Pullback entry: a limit order is placed at the broken level. If price does not come back soon, the order is cancelled automatically.
4. 1:3 target: the target is the slow average and the stop is one third of that distance. If neither is reached within 24 hours, the trade is closed.

METATRADER 5 STRATEGY TESTER RESULTS (S&P 500, M5, 2018–2026, 0.5% risk, real broker costs)
- Profit factor: 1.72
- Maximum drawdown: 3.5%
- Winning years: 8 of 9 (2026 partial)
- 143 trades (about 17 per year): a selective EA that waits for clear setups.
Note: the broker history used has no S&P 500 data from mid-2020 to mid-2021, which is why the curve is flat there.

- Risk per trade as % of balance, or fixed lot.
- Checks margin, min/max volume and broker stop levels before every order.

RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Chart: S&P 500 (US500 / USA500 / SPX500), any timeframe (the EA works internally on M5).
  • Optimised and tested on the S&P 500. On other symbols it uses wider generic settings (input «Generic settings»); results may differ.
  • Suggested risk: 0.5% to 1% per trade.
  • Hedging or netting accounts. Works best with low spreads.
  • Test it first in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account.

WARNING: Strategy Tester results are historical and do not guarantee future results. Leveraged trading involves risk of loss.
