Full Description
What is Vortex?
Vortex v5 is a fully automated portfolio Expert Advisor that manages up to 12 currency pairs from a single chart. Each pair is assigned its own strategy — Bollinger Bands + RSI for ranging markets, or Ichimoku Tenkan-Kijun for trending markets — giving you a diversified, multi-strategy portfolio in one EA.
Key Features
Dual-Strategy Engine
- BB+RSI (Mean-Reversion): Enters when price touches the outer Bollinger Band with RSI confirmation in oversold/overbought territory. Best for pairs that range.
- Ichimoku TK (Trend): Enters on Tenkan/Kijun crosses confirmed by cloud position. Best for pairs that trend.
- You choose which strategy to assign to each pair — full control over your portfolio mix.
Risk Management — Multiple Layers
- ATR-based stop-loss and take-profit sizing — adapts to current volatility.
- Per-trade risk percentage with an absolute cap.
- Daily loss limit — stops trading when the day's loss exceeds your threshold.
- Global drawdown circuit breaker — pauses all trading when account DD exceeds your limit, with automatic cooldown and reset.
- Correlation limiter — prevents overexposure to correlated currencies.
Grid Recovery Mode (Optional)
- When enabled, losing positions are managed with an averaging grid — up to N levels per pair with configurable spacing and lot scaling.
- Hard-stop and time-stop safeguards prevent baskets from running indefinitely.
- Basket-level trailing locks in profits once the grid recovers.
Post-Loss Recovery
- After a losing trade, the next entry uses a slightly larger lot (configurable multiplier) to recover the loss faster, with a hard cap to prevent excessive sizing.
Trailing Stops
- Per-trade trailing: activates at N × ATR profit, trails at N × ATR behind price.
- Basket trailing: activates when basket profit reaches a % of balance, locks in a % of peak profit.
News Filter
- Built-in MQL5 economic calendar integration.
- Blocks entries around high/medium/low-impact events (configurable).
- Currency-aware — only blocks if the news currency matches the pair being traded.
Time Filters
- Skip Friday close and Sunday open to avoid weekend gaps and thin liquidity.
- Configurable cutoff hours.
Real-Time Dashboard
- Premium on-chart dashboard showing balance, equity, P&L, drawdown, win rate, and active trade count.
- Pair table with per-pair breakdown: strategy (TK/BB), win rate, W/L count, P&L, trade status, and news flag.
- Fully customizable colors, position, and width.
- Can be disabled for VPS performance.
Diagnostics
- CSV trade export for external analysis.
- Verbose logging mode for debugging.
- Per-pair statistics tracked in real time.
How to Set Up
- Attach to any chart — the EA trades all configured pairs regardless of chart symbol.
- Enter your pairs in the Pair 1–12 fields (broker suffix is auto-detected).
- Assign strategies — type BB or ICHI for each pair, comma-separated.
- Adjust risk — set your risk %, daily loss limit, and max drawdown.

- That's it — Vortex handles everything else.

Input Parameters
The EA has 60+ fully documented input parameters organized into logical groups. Every parameter shows a description in the Inputs tab explaining its purpose and valid range. Invalid inputs are caught at startup with a clear Alert message.
Backtesting Notes
- Use "Every tick based on real ticks" or "Every tick" mode for accurate results.
- Multi-pair EAs should be tested with all symbols loaded in Market Watch.
- Enable "Use date" to test specific periods.
- The news filter requires calendar data, which may not be available in the tester on all brokers.
Important Disclaimer
Past performance in backtesting does not guarantee future results. Always test on a demo account before going live. Grid recovery and post-loss recovery features involve increased lot sizes and carry higher risk. Adjust the global drawdown limit and grid hard-stop to match your risk tolerance.
