How It Works
This EA uses a mean-reversion approach combined with Martingale position sizing:
- Entry Signal: Uses Ichimoku Cloud to identify when price is extended (overbought/oversold)
- Initial Position: Opens a trade when reversal conditions are met
- Martingale Scaling: If price moves against the position, adds larger positions at fixed intervals
- Profit Management: When combined profit reaches target, activates tight trailing stop to lock in gains
Ichimoku Components Used (Customizable parameters)
- Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line): Fast-moving average of highest high + lowest low over 9 periods
- Kijun-sen (Base Line): Slower average over 26 periods
- Senkou Span A/B (Cloud): Future projected support/resistance zone
- Chikou Span (Lagging): Current price plotted 26 periods back
Position Management (Customizable parameters)
- Level 1: 1-3 positions open → Uses TP_1 profit target and SL_Distance_Pips_1
- Level 2: 4+ positions open → Uses TP_2 profit target and SL_Distance_Pips_2 (tighter SL)
When profit target is reached, trailing stop activates and follows price by the SL distance.

Optimization Recommendations
High Priority Parameters (Test First)
| Parameter | Range | Step | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Additive_Distance | 15 - 50 | 5 | Critical for Martingale risk/reward |
| Lot_Multiplier | 1.0 - 1.5 | 0.1 | Higher = more aggressive recovery |
| TP_1 | 10 - 30 | 5 | Balance between quick exits and profits |
| TP_2 | 20 - 50 | 5 | Should be > TP_1 |
Medium Priority Parameters
| Parameter | Range | Step | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tenkan_Period | 7 - 12 | 1 | Shorter = more signals |
| Kijun_Period | 20 - 30 | 2 | Longer = stronger signals |
| Signal_Bars_Back | 2 - 5 | 1 | Affects signal timing |
| SL_Distance_Pips_1 | 0.5 - 3.0 | 0.5 | Tighter = locks more profit but risks early exit |
| SL_Distance_Pips_2 | 0.3 - 1.5 | 0.2 | Usually tighter than Level 1 |
Lower Priority / Fine-Tuning
| Parameter | Range | Step | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level_2_Count | 3 - 6 | 1 | When to switch to tighter management |
| Wait_Before_New | 30 - 120 | 30 | Prevents overtrading |

Backtesting Tips
Recommended Settings
- Model: Every tick based on real ticks (most accurate)
- Period: H1 or H4 (Ichimoku works best on higher timeframes)
- Spread: Use variable spread or realistic fixed spread
- Initial Deposit: At least 10x the max potential drawdown
Risk Considerations
⚠️ Martingale Warning: This strategy can experience significant drawdowns. Always test with:
- Conservative Lot_Multiplier (start with 1.0-1.2)
- Reasonable Additive_Distance (larger = fewer positions needed)
- Account size that can handle 6-8 additive positions
