Yoyo Products OldSchool EA v1.0.1
=== OVERVIEW ===
A professional triple-DEMA crossover expert advisor for MetaTrader 5, combining
trend confirmation (ADX), momentum filtering (RSI), volatility-based stops (ATR),
partial take-profit management, and a smart trailing stop. Designed for scalping
the 1-minute timeframe with disciplined risk control.
"Trading doesn't make you rich in a day, but it is the road to becoming rich."
=== RECOMMENDED SETUP ===
- Symbol : XAUUSD (Gold) or EURUSD
- Timeframe : M1 (1 minute)
- Initial Deposit : $500 (exactly — not more, not less)
Why $500? The minimum lot on Gold is 0.01. With a 5% risk cap, $500 gives a
1R risk of $25, which is the smallest viable size for 0.01 lot on XAUUSD.
Using less than $500 will force the EA to reject entries (lot = 0), and using
more than $500 during optimization distorts the risk model — $500 is the sweet
spot for maximum, realistic results.
- Leverage : 1:500 (recommended)
=== STRATEGY LOGIC ===
1. Signal : Triple DEMA (21 / 13 / 8) crossover on closed bars
2. Trend filter : ADX(13) must be above 21 — avoids sideways markets
3. Momentum filter: RSI(13) — Buy only if RSI > 55, Sell only if RSI < 55
4. Volatility : ATR(13, M5) — skip entries during flat/dead markets
5. Stop Loss : ATR × 1.6 (dynamic, adapts to market volatility)
6. Take Profit : TP1 at 1.2R (close 50%), TP2 at 2.5R (final target)
7. Break-Even : After TP1 hit, SL moves to entry (risk-free runner)
8. Trailing Stop : Starts after 1.5R profit, trails at 0.5R distance
=== MONEY MANAGEMENT ===
- Base Balance : $500 per lot tier
- Base Lot : 0.01
- Lot Step : +0.01 per $30 growth
- Max Risk / Trade : 5% of account balance
- Anti-Streak : After 2 consecutive losses → skip 2 signals
- Lot Down-Step : Reduces lot size during drawdown, restores on recovery
- Margin Guard : Entry blocked if margin level < 100%
=== SAFE MODIFY PROTECTION ===
All Stop Loss modifications (break-even & trailing) pass through a
Freeze-Level and Stops-Level validator before being sent to the broker.
This prevents the classic "[Modification failed due to order or position
being close to market]" error that plagues most trailing-stop EAs.
=== SAFETY PARAMETERS ===
- One position per symbol (no pyramiding / no hedging)
- Deviation : 30 points
- Magic Number : 813213
- Retry on requote : 3 attempts with 100ms delay
=== WHY $500 AND M1 MATTER ===
$500 + M1 is the combination that lets the EA work at its designed cadence:
• $500 → allows 0.01 lot on Gold without hitting the risk cap on every trade
• M1 → captures enough DEMA crossovers per session for meaningful statistics
Any other combination (smaller capital or higher timeframe) reduces signal
frequency or blocks entries entirely, so the results will NOT reflect the
intended strategy. Stick with $500 and M1 for the true, maximum performance.
=== PHILOSOPHY ===
"Trading doesn't make you rich in a day, but it is the road to becoming rich."
Patience, discipline, and consistent risk management beat any single big win.
Let the EA work. Respect the drawdown. Compound slowly.
=== DISCLAIMER ===
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Test on a demo account
first. Trade only with capital you can afford to lose. The author is not
responsible for any financial losses incurred through the use of this EA.
