Deflection MT5 (MT4 version https://www.mql5.com/ru/market/product/63276) - a trend following expert advisor. It is based on strategy of searching entry points in the beginning of a trend. 2 EMA are used for a signal determination. Deflection has an adaptive system of profit and losses targets calculation which is based on current volatility. The control of risks is managed by TP/SL ratio and via setting risk per trade of a balance amount. Stop Loss and Take Profit targets in points are calculated automatically.
Volume calculation
The volume amount is fixed (Fixed volume) or calculated based on risk per trade parameter (Risk per trade). Fixed volume uses when Risk per trade = 0.
Trading suspension intervals and opening hours
Partial close
Partial close closes only one part of a position! A percent of the position volume is set for partial close. The partial close target is set in percents of total position Take Profit points, where 100% is equal to Take Profit of the whole position. For example, the EA calculated Take Profit = 500 points (5 digits). If set Percent of TP points to close = 60%, then first part of the position will be closed on level 500*0,6=300 points.
Trailing Stop
Trailing stop is based on slow EMA and ATR(Slow EMA period). Trailing stop ratio controls distance from EMA for stop trailing. The greater value, the further from EMA stop is set and vice versa. Value 1.0 means that 1.0*ATR will be added to EMA. This value will be the new Stop Loss.
Multicurrency trading
For an ability to trade on different instruments the EA should be set with equal Magic on each instrument. The only trade can be opened at one time on the same instrument. However, there are several positions can be opened at the same time, but each one on a separate instrument. Total count of opened trades is controlled by parameter Max opened trades for multicurrency.
