MyNewsTrader is a powerful and fully automatic EA that trades during news times.
Due its heavy customization ability you can make it trade on your own your pre-defined strategy using market, stop or limit orders, advanced targets and different trail types.
It is designed to run as a 'set and forget' EA meaning you don't have to type in any event times to trade, but you can also use it as a manual trader with its on chart buttons.
There is built in event scanner that will look for string matches in the news title and only trade those events it has a match for.
Recommendations
- Choosing a good broker is critical because many brokers are widening the spread a lot during news times and that will make it a lot harder to profit during those times
- Use a VPS close to your broker for better fill prices and faster execution times
- FIFO restrictions? Change setting 'Order count per side' to 1
