USDJPY is one of the most trend-friendly major pairs. Yen Trend Rider catches its medium-term trends and steps aside when the market has no direction.
HOW IT WORKS
- Entry on a 25 / 40 EMA crossover with ADX >= 20 (trend strength) and price on the trend side of the 200 EMA.
- 2.5 ATR stop loss, 5 ATR take profit, break-even after 1.5 ATR, then a 2.5 ATR trailing stop.
- Closes the trade on an opposite crossover. Choppy, directionless periods are filtered out by ADX.

RISK MANAGEMENT
- Every trade has a hard stop loss. No grid, no martingale, no averaging down, no hedging tricks.
- Lot size is calculated from your risk % and the stop distance, so it scales with your account.
- Daily loss limit and a margin cap protect the account on bad days.
- Maximum-spread filter: default 30 points, the value used in all backtests (made for 5-digit FX and 2-digit gold quotes). If your broker quotes this symbol with one more digit, multiply it by 10. 0 = off.
BROKER AND SETTINGS
- Session hours are broker SERVER time. Defaults were tested on a GMT+2 (winter) / GMT+3 (summer) server, which most MT5 brokers use. If your broker uses another offset, shift the session hours accordingly.
- Works with any symbol suffix (USDJPY, USDJPY.m, USDJPYx ...): attach it to the chart of the symbol you want to trade.
- A low-spread / raw-spread account is recommended. Backtests include commission of about 7 USD per lot round turn.
- Minimum deposit: 300 USD. Use 0.5-1% risk per trade; start lower on a live account.
- A VPS is recommended so the EA runs 24/5.
HOW TO START
