A fully automatic Expert Advisor designed for trading on USDCHF/EURUSD/GBPUSD/EURCHF/USDCAD/GBPAUD/CADCHF/EURAUD/AUDCHF/GBPCHF currency pairs.
The Expert Advisor is already configured and ready to work
- For testing, you only need to enable the Full Auto Trade parameter
- For real trading, you also need to enable this parameter and I also recommend enabling the news filter, its description is below
The strategy is based on price deviations in the evening, at little volatile time.
The EA uses adaptive filters to prevent potentially unprofitable trades (it will be replenished with additional filters in the future).
The Expert Advisor uses an additional adaptive filter to exit the position before the stop loss is reached.
Before using it, I recommend first test 1-2 weeks on a demo account or on a real one with a minimum lot to make sure that everything is set up correctly and there are no errors.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of account should I use?
Recommend a low spread (Raw, ECN) account with at least 1:100 leverage.
What timeframe should I use?
Please put AlgoTradingNightEA on USDCHF M5 chart and it will automatically trade all the symbols (with default settings + Full Auto Trade - true)
Is it FIFO compliant?
With default setting no, it is not. AlgoTradingNightEA requires a hedge account to run properly.
But it can be used with FIFO, just set only one Buy/Sell mode (Allow SellLimit/Allow BuyLimit)
Which version should I get? MT4 or MT5?
The algorithm is the same, but due to the specifics of the code implementation, orders may differ. Also, in the mt4/mt5 terminal on the same account / broker, quotes may differ slightly, as well as delays and PC/VPS workload may affect the result
How many activations do I get?
AlgoTradingNightEA comes with 7 activations.
How often do you plan updates?
For now, AlgoTradingNightEA is a complete product. it will be updated as needed and new ideas appear
Which VPS provider do you recommend?
I can’t recommend any VPS. Write me pm for additional information.
Is there a Telegram group?
No, this is against the rules of the market. Full support is provided in the discussion section and in private messages
Is AlgoTradingNightEA available to purchase anywhere else?
No, it is available only on MQL5 so if you find it anywhere else, it will not be a genuine product.
Backtesting
Why do I get different/worse backtest results?
- The quality of market data provided by your broker (it varies from broker to broker)
- The swaps and spread of each broker may have an impact on the backtest results
- Invalid WinterGMT Offset value (make sure that the correct value is specified. You must specify the GMT of your broker (terminal), which is used from November to March. I.e. If the broker has GMT +3 in summer (from April to October), and GMT +2 in winter (from November to March), you must specify Winter GMT Offset = (+2)). On the main popular brokers, this value is +2 (as the default)
Is live trading the same as backtesting?
If you have high quality data provided by broker yes, it is exactly the same as real trading (there may be some differences due to delays and VPS/PC load)
How do I backtest it?
the highest quality testing can be obtained in the mt5 terminal. In the mode every tick is based on real ticks
For full automatic testing mode for all currency pairs specified in the EA settings, specify (Full Auto Trade (USDCHF/EURCHF/EURUSD/GBPUSD/USDCAD + additional pairs) - true), this mode works only in MT5 tester.
if you do test at MT4 tester to get more real results, I recommend using additional software (for details, write to me in PM)
in MT4 tester, you can only test each individual pair. To do this, select the symbol on which you will test, turn on Full Auto Trade - and disable trading with all other symbols in the Expert Advisor settings (in mt5, to test each individual currency pair, you must also disable trading of all currency pairs in the settings, except for the one you want to test, you can not change the symbol in the tester (leave USDCHF)).
What year can I backtest from?
There is no limit, but earlier in 2016, market conditions were completely different (liquidity was very low, and spreads were very large) and do not correspond to today's market conditions.
How to use the expert?
How to start the expert:
- Run AlgoTradingNightEA just on one chart– USDCHF (M5 timeframe and set Full Auto Trade - true ). Once it’s attached to a chart, it will automatically scan charts of other currency pairs and open positions accordingly.
- IMPORTANT! If you are running AlgoTradingNightEA on a brand new platform - here's what you need to do in order for it to start trading:
- MT5: run backtest from last year so the EA will get enough necessary historical data in order to fuel up some of its necessary tools
- MT4: click CTRL + U and add every Major and Minor symbol into your market watch. Then open H1 chart of every single one of them and leave it on for a minute or two so data will be downloaded. Then restart the platform and run the AlgoTradingNightEA just on one chart– USDCHF (M5 timeframe and set Full Auto Trade - true )
Are the default settings good?
Yes, only need set (Full Auto Trade (USDCHF/EURCHF/EURUSD/GBPUSD/USDCAD + additional pairs) - true) and you can change them accordingly to your style of trading for example by changing "Risk per trade"
Is there a recommended set file available?
Default settings are recommended + (Full Auto Trade (USDCHF/EURCHF/EURUSD/GBPUSD/USDCAD + additional pairs) - true)
What’s the minimum start balance?
The minimum recommended start balance is $200
Can AlgoTradingNightEA run alongside other experts?
Yes, but please make sure that all your expert advisors have different magic numbers and that you adjust the risk accordingly
How can I increase the profit?
You can increase your profit by either increasing fixed lot or increasing risk per trade in the settings.
How to increase traded lot sizes?
The easiest way to increase the traded lot size is by increasing the Risk (%) / fixed lot/ LotStep.
The inputs are described in details in the input section
How to fix error 4752?
This error indicates that you’ve not enabled auto trading. In order to fix this, you need to perform two tasks:
Firstly, the “Algo Trading” button on top of your Metatrader terminal should be green (enabled)
Then in expert settings in “Common” section the “allow Algo trading” box should be checked
My symbols have prefix or suffix, what do I do?
If at your broker Symbol Name have prefix/sufix please chang symbol name at setting!!!What if my account is in a different currency than USD?
It doesn’t matter what currency is your account in, AlgoTradingNightEA handles it automatically
