Hello, friends. Some time ago I promised to buyers of my Color Trend FX indicator to make an EA that trades by its signals.
Today I want to present to your attention the first version of the Color Trend EA.
This is only the first version of the EA. In the next versions, I plan to add more filters and possibilities for your comfortable work.
Indicator's Dashboard
The EA will work in tandem with the Color Trend FX indicator, but the indicator could not be put on the chart. The EA will take the indicator signals and to display them on a price chart.
The Color Trend EA opens positions according to the indicator signals that only appear at the close of the bar. This made it possible to use the model "Open prices only", which greatly simplified the process of testing and optimizing the EA.

If Use Fixed TP = true then the profit level will be set when opening an order (1.17913).
But if Use Fixed TP = false then the profit level is controlled by the EA, and the profit is fixed at the closing price of the bar that closed above the profit level (1.18201 at the screenshot above).
