MOST – Moving Stop Loss Indicator for MT5
MOST (Moving Stop Loss) is a professional trend-following and signal-generating indicator for MetaTrader 5. It is based on the original concept developed by economist Anıl Özekşi and adapted for MT5 with extended functionality and multiple moving average options.
MOST is designed to act as a dynamic trailing stop while also providing clear BUY and SELL signals, making it suitable for both discretionary traders and systematic strategies.
Core Concept
Unlike classic trailing stop indicators that rely directly on price bars, MOST calculates its stop levels using a percentage-based distance from a moving average.
This approach smooths sudden price fluctuations and reduces false signals caused by short-term volatility.
Key differences compared to traditional trailing stops:
-
Uses a moving average instead of raw price
-
Stop distance is defined as a percentage of the moving average
-
Generates two-directional signals (BUY and SELL), not just trend bias
Trading Logic
-
BUY Signal
Triggered when the Exponential Moving Value (ExMov) crosses above the MOST line -
SELL Signal
Triggered when ExMov crosses below the MOST line -
Trend Conditions
-
Long condition: ExMov remains above MOST
-
Short condition: ExMov remains below MOST
-
This structure allows traders to identify both trend direction and entry timing using a single indicator.
