SmartRisk MA Pro

SmartRisk MA Pro

Strategy Overview:

SmartRisk MA Pro is an optimized, risk-oriented automated trading strategy (Expert Advisor) developed for the MetaTrader 5 platform. It is designed to identify trading opportunities based on price deviations from moving averages and incorporates a comprehensive capital management system. The Expert Advisor operates on a "new bar" logic, ensuring stability and predictability in trade signal execution.

Operating Principles and Trading Logic:

At its core, the strategy analyzes two moving averages: a "Long" Moving Average and a "Short" Moving Average. Each can be configured by period and calculation method (e.g., Simple, Exponential). Dynamic deviation bands are built around these averages using specified percentage values.

• BUY Signal (Long): Generated when the price breaks below the lower deviation band (determined by the "Long" Moving Average) and then returns back, closing above this band. This indicates a potential bounce or reversal into an uptrend.

• SELL Signal (Short): Generated when the price breaks above the upper deviation band (determined by the "Short" Moving Average) and then returns back, closing below this band. This signals a possible pullback or reversal into a downtrend.

Trade signals are evaluated only at the opening of a new bar, which eliminates false entries within the current candle and contributes to more stable analysis.

Intelligent Risk Management (SmartRisk):

SmartRisk MA Pro includes a multi-level risk management system designed to protect your capital:

• Risk per Trade: Lot size is dynamically calculated so that the risk per single trade does not exceed a specified percentage of the current account balance.

• Maximum Total Risk: The system controls the total risk across all open positions for the current symbol, preventing new trades from being opened if the aggregated risk exceeds a set maximum.

• Risk-Reward Filtering: Positions are opened only if the calculated risk-reward ratio falls within a specified minimum and maximum range, allowing the filtering out of less favorable trades.

• Adaptive SL/TP: Stop Loss and Take Profit levels are calculated based on a percentage from the entry price and are automatically adjusted to meet the broker's minimum stop-level requirements.

• Profit Management: Upon reaching a certain percentage of the target Take Profit (e.g., 75%), the strategy automatically closes a portion of the position volume (e.g., 50%) and moves the Stop Loss of the remaining portion to breakeven (with a configurable buffer in pips), thereby locking in partial profits and eliminating further risks on the trade.

Additional Features:

• Trade Direction Control: Ability to independently enable or disable trading for long (BUY) and short (SELL) positions.

• Hedging Setting: Option to allow or disallow simultaneous opening of opposite-direction positions (hedging) for the same symbol.

• Session Close: A function to automatically close all open positions a specified number of minutes before the end of the trading day (fixed time 23:59), helping to avoid overnight risks or gaps.
