Overview
GBPUSD Pound Investor is an Expert Advisor designed for GBPUSD on the M15 timeframe.
It uses a Bollinger Bands entry condition and a Moving Average crossover exit condition.
The EA supports fixed Stop Loss and Take Profit, plus optional protections for spread, daily limits, and equity limits.
A built-in news filter module is included (disabled by default) and requires terminal WebRequest permission when used.
What the EA Does
The EA checks the market once per new bar and decides whether to open a trade.
Buy/Sell entries are derived from Bollinger Bands conditions on recent prices.
Trade exits are managed by a Simple Moving Average (SMA) crossover condition.
Stop Loss and Take Profit can be applied to each order (or set after entry on ECN-type execution).
The EA can limit entries using spread, max open positions/lots, daily loss/drawdown, and equity-based protections.

Risk Management & Safety Notes
Trading involves risk, and losses can exceed expectations in fast markets.
This EA uses Stop Loss and Take Profit settings, but execution depends on broker conditions (spread, slippage, stop levels).
Protections such as Max Spread, daily loss/drawdown limits, and equity protections can help control exposure, but they do not remove risk.
If equity-based protections trigger, the EA may close positions and stop itself.
Use conservative lot sizing and evaluate on a demo account before considering live use.
You are responsible for selecting settings that match your risk tolerance and broker conditions.

Recommended Evaluation
Use Strategy Tester for a historical simulation to confirm the EA’s behavior on your broker’s data.
Test with “Every tick based on real ticks” (when available) and include spreads consistent with your trading conditions.
Then run the EA on a demo account for several weeks to observe execution, slippage sensitivity, and how protections behave.
Adjust Max_Spread and exposure limits to match typical session spreads for GBPUSD.
Only change one parameter group at a time (e.g., protections first, then indicator parameters) to keep results interpretable.

FAQ
Q: Does it trade more than one symbol?
