Hedging EA

Cycle start

• When there are no open orders (by magic+symbol), the EA immediately opens a new cycle using the bullishness, bearishness, or neutralness of the current candle direction: if the current candle is bullish → open M1 BUY, otherwise M1 SELL. If the current candle is neutral, choose randomly.

• Immediately after opening M1, place P1 in the opposite direction as M1 at the broker’s minimum pending distance. P1 lot = 3 × M1 lot (user input). M1 TP = 0.7 pips and P1 TP is at entry ± 0.7 pips (depending on direction) — but the P1 entry is at the minimum allowed distance.

• Immediately after opening M1, place P2 in the same direction as M1 at the broker's minimum pending distance plus 1 point (P2 lot is calculated in Scenario (iii) below). P2 TP is at entry ± 0.7 pips as well.

Scenario (i) — M1 wins before P1 triggers

• When M1 is closed by TP, the EA deletes P1 and P2 and resets the cycle (immediate restart).

Scenario (ii) — P1 triggers → M2 and M2 wins

• If P1 triggers (fills) it becomes M2 (market). If M2 hits its own TP, the EA closes M1 and any pendings (P2) and restarts the.

Scenario (iii) — P1 triggers (M2), M2 didn't win but price returns to M1 TP

• If M2 is running and later M1 TP is reached, the EA:

  • Closes M1 (M1 awarded profit by broker),

  • P2 lot is computed so that the cash profit when M3 (P2 when triggered) hits its TP will approximately offset or cancel the floating loss of M2, to within 3 points (Note that this makes sure that the P/L of M1 is always protected).

When P2 triggers → M3

Safety & housekeeping

• All lot sizes are clamped/rounded to broker rules (MODE_MINLOT, MODE_LOTSTEP, MODE_MAXLOT).

• Pending distances respect MODE_STOPLEVEL .

• Many debug logs & a periodic summary print are included.

• The EA uses history-scanning to reliably react to broker-side TP closures (so it can detect TP closures that removed tickets).

• Make sure the EA survives a connection interruption.
