ArMoney is an automated Expert Advisor which uses Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Average True Range (ATR) indicators.
In case of unfavourable price movement, the EA automatically opens other trades up to a maximum number of trades set by the user. When a given profit is reached, all the trades are closed. Each opened trade has a stop loss to keep the maximum risk under control.
Price levels for trading signals, take profit and stop loss are computed as a function of ATR, so that the EA can adapt to the current market volatility. Users can modify the parameters with respect to their trading style (e.g. users may want to increase or reduce the frequency of the trades).
Set Up (Pairs, TimeFrame, Input Parameters)
The EA can work with any pair (and with any financial instruments) at any time frame. Backtesting showed that higher time frames (i.e. M30, H1, H4) give better results than lower ones.
Suggested pair are:
- EURUSD on M30
- EURCHF on H1
- USDCAD on H1
- CADCHF on M30
- AUDCAD on M30
- AUDNZD on H1
- GBPCAD on H1
- GBPAUD on H1
- GBPNZD on H1
- NZDCAD on H1

AtrPeriod – Number of periods on which ATR is computed
StartingLot – Number of lots of the first trade
MaxNumberOfTrades – Maximum number of trades for each operation (when market moves against you)
No_of_ATR_for_Buy_Sell_Signal – No. of ATR of a price movement required to generate a buy/sell signal (it has an effect on the frequency of the buy/sell signals)

StartingHour –Hour before which positions cannot be opened (broker time). It must be between 0 and 23
EndingHour – Hour after which positions cannot be opened (broker time). It must be between 0 and 23
PairLeverage – Symbol leverage (e.g. 100 means that a leverage 1:100 is used)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limitations
No limitations on the broker and leverage. However, performances are sensitive to the spread (obviously the less the spread, the better)
Starting lots and maximum number of trades should be compatible with initial equity and risk percentage (user could not have enough funds and/or could have a loss greater than their risk percentage). If it is not possible to open the lots the user specified, the EA alerts them and automatically determines the maximum lots compatible with their equity and risk percentage, and then apply them. If the computed lots are lower than the minimum required for that symbol, no trade is opened
