DynamicGrid MT5

DynamicGrid - a volatility-adaptive grid EA: grid spacing, lots and exits adjust to the market in real time, with layered protection against spikes, trends and news.

Risk note: DynamicGrid is a grid system and can use increasing lot sizes. If the market runs one way for a long time, positions are added until margin runs out. Use a cent account for small capital, keep the drawdown you can accept in mind when choosing the deposit, and test on demo for 2 to 4 weeks first.

Why DynamicGrid

• The grid breathes with the market: wider when volatility rises, tighter when it calms, with a floor against clustering.
• Several protection layers you can switch on or off: spike pause, trend filter, news pause, staged hedge.
• Four ways to take profit, from trailing stop to a dynamic target that tightens as the grid grows.
• Works on gold, major forex pairs, indices and crypto, on hedging and netting accounts.

How it works

DynamicGrid opens a first position only when its entry filters agree, then builds a grid if price moves against it. Spacing follows current volatility, lot size follows the mode you choose, and the basket is closed by trailing stop, profit lock or a dynamic target. Risk tools - drawdown reduction, staged hedging, daily target and loss limit - keep the exposure under control.

Key features

• Entry filters: momentum, volatility band, candlestick pattern, trend direction, multi-timeframe confirmation - each with its own settings, each optional.
• Volatility-adaptive grid spacing with automatic pause during abnormal spikes.
• Seven lot modes from fixed lot to progressive scaling, with a maximum lot cap.
• Close methods: trailing stop, profit lock per side, profit lock combined, dynamic take profit.
• Risk management: drawdown reduction, staged hedging in up to 4 steps, daily profit target, loss limit by amount or percent (on by default: at a 20% floating loss the EA closes everything and stops), spread control.
• Trading hours, weekend protection, economic-calendar news pause, re-entry cooldown.
• Telegram reports; on-chart dashboard.

Requirements and recommendations

• Symbols: XAUUSD and major forex pairs recommended (works on all symbols).
• Timeframe: any.
• Account: cent account for capital below a few thousand USD; hedging or netting.
• Deposit: start on a cent account; 100 USD on a cent account to learn with the starting lot 0.01. On a standard account multiply by 100. Choose the deposit by the drawdown you can accept - the default loss limit stops the EA at a 20% floating loss.
• Leverage: 1:500 recommended.
• Broker: low spread recommended.
• VPS: recommended.

How to start

1. Open a demo or cent account and attach DynamicGrid to an XAUUSD chart.
2. Keep the default settings and the starting lot 0.01.
3. Keep the loss limit on; add the spike pause and the news pause if you want them.
4. Run 2 to 4 weeks on demo, then start small and withdraw profit regularly.

FAQ

How much do I need? Start with 100 USD on a cent account to learn. Size a real deposit by the drawdown you accept; the default loss limit stops the EA at a 20% floating loss.

Cent or standard? For small capital always use a cent account - a grid on a small standard account runs out of margin after a few positions.

Can I raise the lot? Yes, but the deposit has to grow in the same proportion (0.02 lot = twice the deposit).

The EA stopped by itself - why? The loss limit was reached: everything was closed at a 20% floating loss and the EA stopped. Check the Experts journal, then attach the EA to the chart again when you are ready.

Prop firms? Usually not suitable - most prop firms limit grid systems and floating drawdown.

Netting account? Supported.
