Grid Silver Zebra Trading System EA
SHORT DESCRIPTION
The Silver Zebra Trading System, wired into a complete grid, hedge and cycle engine. A census of bars either side of a long average decides when and which way a cycle starts. Everything after that - the ladder, the fragmenting closer, the target slicer, the reopen guard, the optional hedge cycle - is handled by an engine that was built to keep a grid alive rather than to hope it never goes wrong.
WHAT THIS EA IS
Most grid robots are one idea: open a level, open another one further away, and wait. That works until it does not. This EA is three engines that share one chart and one account, wired together so money only ever flows in one direction.
1. THE OPENER - SILVER ZEBRA
Not a crossover. A census.
A long average is drawn, and then the last sixty-odd bars are counted: how many finished above the average, how many below. Whichever side has more bars owns the market.
The difference from a crossover is not cosmetic. A crossover can be produced by a single candle - one violent bar drags the fast average through the slow one and the tool changes its mind. A census cannot be moved by one bar, because one bar is one vote regardless of how big it was. To change the answer, the market has to actually spend time on the other side.
Then the ZEBRA rule, which is what the product is named for, and which is worth understanding before you decide whether to leave it on.
The plain reading follows whichever side is winning. The zebra reading asks a second question: is that side's lead GROWING or SHRINKING? A dominance that is winning by less than it was last bar is a dominance in decay, and the zebra reading flips against it.
So it turns before the count does. It is early - and early, in the middle of a strong move, means wrong for a while. That is precisely the cost the grid ladder and the fragmenting closer exist to absorb, and it is why this trigger belongs on this engine rather than on a single-entry robot.
Both modes are exposed. ZEBRA_FADE is the published default. ZEBRA_TREND is the plain census, slower, and it stays with a move for far longer.
You can count closes across the average or count highs and lows across it, which on a gappy instrument gives a noticeably different population.
2. THE LADDER
Once a cycle is armed, the grid builds. BUY and SELL grids run independently, each with its own anchor, its own level counter, its own spacing and its own bar gate, so a market that trends one way and ranges the other is not forced into a single model. Single-grid mode is there when you want one direction at a time.
Spacing is fixed points or ATR-driven, with a floor, a ceiling and an option to freeze the ATR value for the whole cycle so the spacing does not drift under you mid-cycle. A per-level multiplier lets the grid widen as it goes deeper.
Lots climb by multiplication or by addition. Additive is the honest choice for most accounts: 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 rather than a curve that doubles into margin call. Auto-lot scales the starting size with the balance, and scaling down is opt-in rather than assumed.
3. THE CLOSER - AND THIS IS THE REAL DIFFERENCE
A normal grid closes the oldest order against the newest and waits for the pair to cover its own cost. When the market does not come back, nothing closes, and the book grows.
This closer does not wait.
It scans combinations of both ends of the book - several of the oldest orders against several of the newest - and ranks the qualifying combinations by how much of the book each one clears. It counts swap and it counts commission, both sides, from your own trade history rather than from a number you typed in.
When no whole combination can cover the target, it buys a SLICE. Part of the oldest order is closed, paid for by the profit the newest orders have already made, and the rest of that order is remembered in a ledger. The ledger survives restarts, reattaches and terminal crashes, and the part already killed is rebuilt from deal history every time rather than trusted from storage. Over several slices the oldest, heaviest order is retired piece by piece while the market does whatever it wants.
A reopen guard refuses any closure that would immediately reopen the level it just closed, which is the quiet way most grids churn their own account into commission.
4. THE HEDGE CYCLE - OFF BY DEFAULT
An optional volume engine. It opens a perfect hedge - equal BUY and SELL on a rotating list of symbols - and then retires it in slices, each slice funded by a small surcharge added to the closures the grid was making anyway. The hedge is held in balance, verified on a timer, and repaired automatically if one leg is left naked.
There are hard limits on what the hedge may cost. A cap in money on a single closure, a cap as a percentage of any closure's target, and a weekly cash-day window that can hold new cycles and new slices before a withdrawal.
This is off by default and deliberately so. With it off, this EA is the census driving a dual grid with a fragmenting closer, and nothing else is touched.
5. EXECUTION YOU CAN AUDIT
Every closure is a plan that is scanned, sent leg by leg, and then verified against the deal history. A leg that does not fill goes to a retry queue instead of being assumed. A market that refuses orders makes the EA wait rather than burn its retry budget. A book that changed between the scan and the send aborts the plan.
There is a run mode that scans and reports without trading, so you can watch what it would have done before you let it do anything.
6. THE PANEL
This product has its own panel, not a shared one. The theme is ZEBRA: black and white with one silver accent, because the product is a census of two opposing populations. Silver owns the grid, ember owns the hedge, with the highest luminance contrast between table rows of any panel here.
Both cards are drawn in English with an Arabic line underneath, and both can be switched off. In a non-visual backtest nothing is drawn at all, so optimisation runs at full speed.

Reopen guard, minimum margin level, maximum floating loss, maximum orders
Hedge cycle: symbols, rotation, cycle lots, slice lots, bonus, caps, repair
Panel position, font size, table depth, Arabic display, chart marks, verbose logging
REQUIREMENTS
A HEDGING account is required. On a netting account every grid level merges into one position, so there is nothing to fragment and no way to hold a hedge. The EA checks this at startup and stops with a clear message rather than misbehaving quietly.
Works on any symbol and any timeframe. No DLLs, no external indicator files, nothing to install beyond the EA itself. The strategy maths is written into the EA, so the reading on the chart and the reading it trades from are the same number.
A NOTE ON EXPECTATIONS
A grid is a way of managing a position, not a way of predicting a market. The census decides when to start and which way to face. The closer and the slicer are what keep a cycle from becoming permanent. Size the ladder for the account you actually have, test on your own broker's spreads and swap, and start with the hedge cycle off.
Set files for the main configurations are included. Questions and setup help are welcome through private message.
