- Versione: 1.12
- Attivazioni: 5
A mechanical, rule-based scalping system based on the "4-Hour Range" strategy.
Scalping 4H Range Pro is a fully automated Expert Advisor designed to trade price reversions following false breakouts of the daily opening range. This strategy focuses on a specific price action pattern: waiting for the first 4-hour candle of the day to establish a range, detecting a "fake-out" (breakout failure), and scalping the reversion back into value.
This EA automates the popular strategy featured by the Data Trader YouTube channel, enhancing it with professional risk management, a live dashboard, and customizable entry logic.
Key Features-
Strategy Dashboard: A professional on-chart panel displaying Strategy Status, Current Range Levels, Daily P/L, and Drawdown in real-time.
-
Dual Entry Logic: Choose between Direct Entry (aggressive) or Anchor Candle Entry (conservative confirmation) to fit your trading style.
-
Smart Risk Management: Built-in auto-lot calculation based on risk percentage, daily drawdown limits, and maximum daily trades to protect your capital.
-
Dynamic Stop Loss: Select between a static Daily High/Low stop loss or a dynamic "Recent Swing Extreme" to tighten risk.
-
Visual Trading: Automatically draws the active trading range and entry arrows on the chart for easy visual verification.
-
Define the Range: The EA identifies the High and Low of the first 4-hour candle of the trading day.
-
Wait for the Fake-out: It monitors price action on the 5-minute timeframe. It waits for price to break out of the range and then close back inside (indicating a false breakout).
-
Execute the Trade:
-
If price breaks the High and closes back inside -> SELL.

If price breaks the Low and closes back inside -> BUY.
