Overview
Alpha Silver Cross V2.0 is an Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 4 that trades a moving-average crossover with an ATR-based volatility confirmation.
It is designed to run on the chart where it is attached and evaluates signals on new bars.
The EA supports configurable Stop Loss and Take Profit, plus optional indicator-based exits.
Built-in protections include spread and exposure limits, daily limits, and account-level equity protections.
An optional news filter can suspend new entries around scheduled events when enabled.
What the EA Does
The EA checks a fast/slow Simple Moving Average crossover to define trade direction.
Before opening a trade, it confirms market activity using an ATR condition.
If protections allow, it opens a BUY or SELL using the configured fixed lot size.
Positions can be managed by fixed SL/TP and, if enabled, additional exit rules (DeMarker and Standard Deviation).
The EA is designed to manage one active position per symbol and Magic Number.
A status panel can display key information and protection states for monitoring.

Risk Management & Safety Notes
Trading involves risk, and losses are possible. This EA does not guarantee results and is not financial advice.
Execution conditions such as spread, slippage, swaps, gaps, and broker stop levels can affect entries and exits.
SL/TP distances should be validated for your broker’s symbol specification (digits, contract size, minimum stop distance).
Daily and account protections can suspend new entries and may close positions when triggered, depending on settings.
If the news filter is enabled, the terminal must allow WebRequest as required by the EA, otherwise news data may not load.
Always test in Strategy Tester (historical simulation) and then on a demo account before using a live account.
Use conservative position sizing and define your own account-level loss limits.

Recommended Evaluation
Use Strategy Tester as a historical simulation to confirm order placement, SL/TP behavior, and exit timing on bar open/close.
Test with realistic trading costs (spread/commission) similar to your broker environment.
Forward-test on a demo account to observe execution effects such as slippage, spread changes, and stop-level constraints.
Verify that protections trigger as expected (spread blocking, daily limits, equity protections).
If enabling the news filter, confirm that upcoming events appear on a live chart (Strategy Tester does not download news).
Evaluate across more than one market phase, including both quiet and volatile periods.
Compatibility
Platform: MetaTrader 4 (MT4).
Symbol: intended for XAGUSD (Silver); broker suffixes may apply (for example, XAGUSDm).
Timeframe: commonly used on M15; other timeframes require your own re-evaluation of inputs.
Account type: works on MT4 accounts that allow EAs; broker trading conditions apply.
News filter requires an active internet connection and WebRequest permission.
FAQ
Q: Does the EA open multiple positions?
A: It is designed to manage one active position per symbol and Magic Number.
Q: Does it use martingale, grid, or averaging?
A: No. It uses single entries based on signals and manages trades with SL/TP and exit conditions.
Q: Why was an entry blocked?
A: Spread limits, max positions/lots, daily/account protections, or the news filter can block new entries. Check the on-chart status and Journal messages.
Q: Do I need to enable anything for the news filter?
A: Yes. When News_Priority is enabled, WebRequest permission must be allowed as required by the EA.
Q: Can I change SL/TP and indicator settings?
A: Yes. These are inputs. Re-test after changes to confirm behavior on your broker.
Q: Where can I get support?
A: Support is provided via MQL5 comments or MQL5 messages only.
