PrimeGrid TCI – Trend-Filtered Grid EA for MT5
Most grid EAs open their first trade anywhere. PrimeGrid TCI does not. It waits for a confirmed trend, a real gap between the moving averages and a momentum signal before it opens the first order. Only then does it manage the position as a grid, and it closes the whole basket together with a profit trailing stop in your account currency.
Designed for traders who want frequent small basket profits and understand how grid systems work.
KEY FEATURES
- Filtered first entry – EMA trend + ATR strength + Stochastic timing, so the EA stays out of flat, choppy markets
- Smart grid – fixed lot for the first 5 orders, then a lot multiplier so a smaller pullback can bring the basket back to profit
- Basket profit trailing – tracks the peak profit and closes all orders together
- Two-sided operation – on a hedging account, buy and sell grids can run at the same time, each started by its own signal
- Safe with other trades – manages only its own orders by magic number
- Chart panel – account type, balance, equity, open orders, basket profit and trailing peak
HOW IT WORKS
1. First entry: trend + momentum filter
- Trend is read from EMA 20 and EMA 40 on the signal timeframe (default M15).
- The gap between the two EMAs must exceed a fraction of ATR(60), which filters out flat markets.
- Stochastic confirms the timing:
– Buy: fast EMA above slow EMA by more than the ATR margin, %K above %D, and %K below 80
– Sell: fast EMA below slow EMA by more than the ATR margin, %K below %D, and %K above 20
2. Grid orders
- After the first order opens, the entry filters no longer apply to that side.
- A new order is added each time price moves the grid step (default 500 points) against the last order.
- Orders 1 to 5 use the base lot.
- From order 6, each new order is the previous lot × the multiplier (default 1.5).
3. Closing the basket
All open orders of the EA are treated as one basket. Profit is measured in account currency, including swap.
- One order open: trailing starts at 0.8 profit, the order closes at 5.0 profit.
- Two or more orders: trailing starts at 2.0, the basket closes at 10.0.
- Trailing: once started, the EA tracks the peak basket profit and closes everything if profit drops by the trailing step (default 0.3) from that peak.
MAIN INPUTS
- Base lot, lot multiplier, grid step (points)
- Maximum open orders, maximum lot per order
- Magic number
- Signal timeframe, ATR margin
- Stochastic %K, %D, slowing, and upper/lower bounds
- Trailing start and close levels for single and multiple orders, trailing step
- Show chart info on/off
RECOMMENDATIONS
- Symbol: [SYMBOL]
- Base lot: [BASE LOT] per [DEPOSIT]
- Account: hedging recommended (on a netting account only one side can be open at a time)
- Use a different magic number for each chart
- VPS and a low-spread broker recommended
- Trailing values are in account currency – adjust them if you change the base lot or trade a symbol with a different point value
RISK DISCLOSURE
PrimeGrid TCI uses grid and lot-multiplication (martingale-type) techniques. It has no stop loss and no maximum-loss exit. Lot sizes grow quickly after the 6th order, and a long one-directional move can use up your free margin and cause a large loss or a margin call. Use a deposit that suits your settings, limit the maximum number of orders and the maximum lot, and always test on a demo account first. Past results, including backtests, do not guarantee future performance.
