Green Point AUTO

The EA consists of multiple virtual Prototype-1 robots (up to 100 strategies depending on the currency pair). Each strategy has different settings. Once the lot sizes for all strategies are calculated, the EA obtains the resulting trading lot.

The operation principle is trading within a corridor. When leaving the corridor, the EA closes the positions and saves them for opening in the future.

The best condition for trading is a flat, the worst condition is a long trend without rollbacks.

The EA has a parameter limiting the maximum number of lots (MaxTotalLots), thereby making trading more secure. See the screenshots with various options of MaxTotalLots.

Virtual strategies based on the Prototype-1 EA use the averaging and martingale methods. The use of virtual strategies reduces the probability of completely wiping the Deposit when using the martingale strategy.

The EA contains optimized strategies for pairs best suited for this type of algorithm. The optimization has been performed for all available history, from 1999 to the present on two different brokers.

Recommended pairs and spread which were used for optimization

• Best result: AUDCAD-2.6, EURUSD-1.5, EURCHF-2.1, USDJPY-1.5, NZDCAD-3.7;
• Average result: AUDUSD-1.7, USDCAD-1.9, EURGBP-1.8, GBPCHF-4.0, NZDUSD-2.3, GBPCAD-4.4;
• The other pairs are not recommended for this algorithm, but you can use them.

Recommendations for account

• ECN, Standard, Pro.
• 1:500 (at low risk, you can use a leverage of 1:50 or 1:100).
• The number of simultaneous positions >200.
• Minimum lot size of the broker - 0.01.
• Can work in compliance with the FIFO rule.

If one virtual strategy loses, only 1% of the real account is lost (if Risk=10000 and 100 strategies are used).

Formula: RealLoss, % = NumberOfLostStrategies / UsedStrategies * 10000 / Risk * 100%
