MA Price Action EA MT5
- Experts
- Versione: 1.0
- Attivazioni: 5
The MA Price Action EA is a moving average price action scalping system using price change and related candlestick patterns in conjunction with moving average indicators.
Trades are opened by changing the price and crossing certain limits of moving averages and followed with a trailing stop until a breakeven (trigger) point is reached. After reaching the breakeven (trigger) point, the trailing stop is changed to small increments to secure the trade until the take profit is reached or the stop loss is triggered.
To secure the trades, a fixed stop loss and a fixed take profit are used each time a trade is opened and are additionally protected by time filters and drawdown monitoring.
The EA does not use martingale and/or grid functions. Only one position is opened at a time.
