Hydra DCA is a sophisticated multi-strategy trading Expert Advisor that combines Bollinger Bands and RSI indicators with two powerful trading modes: Standard and DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging). Named after the mythical multi-headed creature, Hydra DCA adapts to changing market conditions by employing different strategies simultaneously and can "regrow" positions through its intelligent DCA functionality when the market moves against initial positions.
This EA was tested on XAUUSD M15 but can work on any Forex pair if you set it up (!!It requires testing and adjusting on demo before adding real funds!!).
Here is the >> Set file << that I recommend and you can make small changes from here. (Dont expect the EA to be profitable with the standard settings for this price. You would have to put in some work to adjust it)
Core Trading Logic
