PiggybackHedger — Purely Technical Grid & Hedge EA | 2.5 Years Live Proven
PiggybackHedger (PBH) is a sophisticated, purely technical Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5 — no indicators, no black-box signals, no guesswork. It operates on clean price action and a rigorously configurable grid framework, placing and managing trade baskets with full transparency and precision.
How It Works
At its core, PiggybackHedger builds directional trade baskets — independently for buys and sells — within user-defined price ranges. When price moves against an open position by a configured grid distance, the EA adds the next level to the basket at a calculated volume, progressively averaging down towards a shared take profit. Each basket tracks its own average entry price, accumulated swap, commission, and unrealised P&L, and closes cleanly as a unit once the target is reached.
The EA offers three grid calculation modes: a fixed volume list, a list combined with a multiplier, or a pure multiplier-per-level approach — giving you full control over how aggressively the basket scales. Volume per level, maximum levels, grid spacing, and TP targets are all independently optimisable.
Key Features
- Three operating modes: Standalone grid trading, hedging a Master EA by magic number, or hedging at the account level — making it highly flexible as either a primary or supplementary EA
- Configurable trade ranges: Fixed price ceilings/floors for buys and sells, with optional auto-range based on recent N-day highs and lows, plus point-based corrections
- Trailing Stop options: Four trailing modes including standard, accumulating L1 trailing, and profit-adjusted variants — allowing you to lock in gains without premature closure
- Commission & swap correction: TP is automatically adjusted to account for broker costs and negative swap, so your net profit target is always accurate
- Spread filter: Trades only execute within your defined maximum spread in points
- Candle-based entry timing: Configurable to open new positions every X candles on your chosen timeframe — avoiding overtrading in choppy conditions
- Telegram notifications: Real-time alerts for trade events, basket closures, and level escalations, routed to your own bot with account alias support
- Full chart overlay: Visual lines for TP levels, next grid levels, price ranges, trailing start, and live basket information — all colour-configurable
- Debug & logging: Detailed expert log output for backtesting analysis and live monitoring
Proven in the Real World
PiggybackHedger has been running live on multiple accounts and across several symbols for over 2.5 years. We came from the world of indicator-based EAs and complex signal strategies — and nothing gave us the consistency and risk control that a well-optimised, purely technical approach delivers. The key insight we've carried through every iteration: proper backtesting and careful parameter optimisation are not optional — they are the strategy. When done right, the results speak for themselves.
This is not a "set and forget" EA for passive traders. It rewards those who take the time to understand their instrument, optimise their grid and range settings through rigorous backtesting, and manage their exposure consciously. For those traders, PiggybackHedger is a reliable, transparent, and powerful tool.
Recommended Use
Best suited for ranging or mean-reverting instruments. Works across forex pairs, indices, and commodities. Always backtest with your broker's tick data and optimise grid spacing, TP points, and max levels to your symbol's volatility profile before going live.
