Swap Hunter EA is a fully automated Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 4. It is designed to identify positive swap conditions based on the current broker swap values and manage trades according to configurable filters and risk settings.
The EA can scan multiple symbols, compare swap values and apply additional filters before opening a position. Swap values, spreads and trading conditions can vary depending on the broker and account type.
How the Strategy Works
When a position is held overnight, a swap or rollover value may be charged or credited by the broker. Depending on the symbol, position direction and broker conditions, the swap value can be positive or negative.
Swap Hunter EA reads the current swap values from the broker and can select a trade direction based on the available swap information. The EA also supports the broker-defined triple swap day.
