Brent-WTI Statistical Arbitrage EA
Overview
Brent-WTI Statistical Arbitrage EA is an automated trading system designed to trade the price relationship between Brent and WTI crude oil instruments. The strategy focuses on statistical divergence and mean reversion behavior between the two markets.
The EA monitors spread conditions, detects abnormal deviations, and opens positions when the probability of reversion meets the defined entry criteria. It is built for traders who want a structured intermarket approach with configurable risk and execution controls.
Strategy Logic
The system is based on the relationship between Brent and WTI prices. Under normal market conditions, the spread between these two instruments tends to fluctuate around a relative equilibrium. When the spread moves too far from its expected range, the EA evaluates whether a reversion setup is present.
The trading logic includes:
spread monitoring between Brent and WTI
statistical deviation measurement
mean reversion entry conditions
synchronized position handling
configurable exit logic
built-in risk control filters
This product is not a scalper and is not designed as a high-frequency trading system. It is intended for structured spread-based trading.
