Midas Vanguard EA v1.05 is an automated trading system developed for XAUUSD (Gold). It executes an ATR-adaptive straddle breakout strategy with integrated high-impact news filtering and session controls, placing Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders at the open of each new bar to capture price momentum while maintaining strict risk management.
Key Features
- Candle Open Execution (New Bar Engine): Triggers straddle placement strictly on the first tick of a new candle based on the active chart timeframe (M5, M15, M30, H1, H4,...), ensuring alignment between live execution and backtest data.
- Adaptive Volatility Engine: Dynamically calculates breakout distance using the ratio between Fast and Slow ATR indicators to adjust entry levels based on market volatility.
- Smart OCO (One-Cancels-The-Other): Automatically removes the remaining pending order the moment one side triggers, preventing dual-sided exposure.
- Custom Expiry Control: Uses an internal timer (PendingExpirySeconds) to cancel pending orders if price does not trigger within the specified window.
- Step Trailing Stop: Adjusts stop loss levels as price advances to lock in profits during trending moves.
- Multi-Layered Money Management: Supports Fixed Lot, Capital Step Scaling, Risk % per Trade, and ATR Dynamic Lot sizing.
- Performance Adaptation Engine: Features an optional rolling win rate analyzer that adjusts lot multipliers based on recent trading history over a user-defined lookback window.
- On-Chart Dashboard: Real-time display showing active timeframe mode, remaining bar close countdown, market strength ratio, active lot size, rolling win rate, and floating equity/balance.
