LemonSqwzr is a no-nonsense MT4 Expert Advisor built for breakout-driven trend following with risk discipline first. It hunts clean directional moves, adds smartly, and protects profit without over-engineering your chart.
What it does (in plain English)
-
Finds breakouts, rides trends. Uses Donchian channels (e.g., 34/14 or 55/20) to identify fresh momentum and exit on a reverse breakout.
-
Filters the noise. Trades only when market efficiency is reasonable: ATR-to-Spread must pass your threshold (default ~7–8). If trading is inefficient, it stands down.
-
Adds with intent (pyramiding). As price moves your way, LemonSqwzr adds units at ATR-based steps—up to your max units and risk cap.
-
Knows when to trail (optional). Adaptive ATR trailing can be switched on/off. When on, it:
-
Waits for profit ≥ max(Trigger_ATR×ATR, MinPips) ,
-
Then trails by max(Follow_ATR×ATR, MinPips) ,
-
Always respects broker stop-levels and moves to break-even first.
-
-
Manages risk like an adult. Each trade sizes lots from percent risk and a catastrophic SL at ATR × K —so your downside is defined from second zero.
-
Restart-safe by design. If MT4 or your VPS restarts:
-
It won’t open new trades immediately (configurable restart entry-lock for X bars).
-
Open trades keep their original logic, because LemonSqwzr stores each order’s parameters inside the order comment (persisted per position).
-
-
Basket-friendly. You can keep per-trade SLs or run a single “basket SL” policy (align all positions to one stop) if that fits your style.
Why traders pick LemonSqwzr
-
Simple, readable rules. No black boxes. Breakout in, reverse-breakout out. ATR everywhere for scale.
-
Trend bias without FOMO. It enters only when volatility vs cost is worth it.
-
Multi-asset ready. Comfortable on 20–30 symbols at once—major FX, metals, indices—without flooding your logs.
-
Human-proof restarts. Your strategy’s “state” survives reboot; no accidental re-entries just because MT4 blinked.
How it works (under the hood)
-
Signal & Entry
-
Compute Donchian High/Low over N_Breakout .
-
Build pending buy/sell stops with a small ATR buffer to avoid premature tags.
-
Skip if ATR/Spread < threshold or your Daily DD stop is hit.
-
-
Risk & Positioning
-
Position size from Risk_Percent and the catastrophic SL at ATR × CatastrophicSL_ATR .
-
Max open risk (as % equity) prevents overexposure.
-
Pyramiding adds at PyramidStep_ATR × ATR spacing, capped by Max_Units .
-
-
Management
-
Exit on reverse Donchian ( M_Exit ) at bar close.
-
Optional Trailing: BE first, then ATR-relative follow distance; broker stop-level safe.
-
Cleanup of stale pendings that drift too far from price.
-
-
State Persistence
-
Every order carries its own N/M/ATR/Trailing settings in the comment.
-
On restart, each trade is managed by the parameters it was born with.
-
Recommended timeframes (straight talk)
-
H4 (sweet spot): Balanced signals, lower noise.
Start with: N=34–40 , M=14–20 , ATR_Period=20 , MinEff=6–8 . -
D1 (patient money): Fewer, cleaner swings; loosen daily DD or disable it.
Try: N=20–30 , M=10–14 , MinEff≈5 . -
H1 (busier desk): Works on majors; keep ATR/Spread filter strict.
Default: N=55 , M=20 .
(Pro tip: Metals/indices can go M30 with N≈34 , M≈14–20 if you want more touch points.)

FAQ (quick)
-
Will it overtrade after a reboot?
No. The entry-lock holds new entries for X bars; existing trades keep their own saved parameters. -
Can I stop winners from turning into losers?
Yes—turn on trailing. It goes break-even first, then locks in profit at your ATR-based follow distance. -
What about spread spikes?
If ATR/Spread is poor, it refuses new entries. You can tune the threshold. -
Can I align stops for all positions?
Yes—enable a basket SL policy if you prefer one unified stop.
Ethos & disclaimer
