Williams Wizard is an expert advisor designed for the market and is built on a foundation of sound trading principles. Unlike many other advisors out there, it does not rely on a grid system or martingale strategy, which can often lead to risky and unpredictable trading. Instead, this expert advisor uses highly reliable and effective indicators which measure momentum in the market and help to identify potential buying and selling opportunities.
I recommend using this expert advisor on USDJPY 4H but of course it can be used on other high momentum instruments. The backtest shown is done on USDJPY 4H from 2019 - 2023. The only input parameter changed from default setting was to risk a fixed % of account balance per trade (1%) instead of using a fixed lot size.
