WindExpansion is a fully automated solution to get a smart edge type from the market: it will enter when the “smart money” is starting to heavy push the market (after accumulation/distribution phases that form tiny ranges) and volume is expanding due big interest to sustain the price caused by psychological buying/selling pressure; when this situation happens many traders will try to fade the move but “big dogs” will be stronger and collect profits by the crowd; when the opposite situation happens (“big dogs” try to fade the expansion move) it will implement some great trade management techniques that allow locking-in profit as soon as possible or in the worst cases small stop losses will be triggered to secure your account.
Technical details
WindExpansion open two trade at once, the first with fixed target profit and the second is simply trailed all along the moves; it always uses tiny stop loss and try to ride big moves while it lock-in your profits (as soon as possible) until target is reached; it doesn't use any type of dangerous methods like martingale, averaging etc. but only genuine trade/money management concepts.
This EA will open trades at the open of new candle and it takes advantage from two expansion levels that happen on two different time frame (M30 and H1) with 4 different set files for each time frame; each set file will work to take a portion of the move (as you probably know the market has many dimensions) from smallest to the largest move to improve its edge over different move types, in this way EA will always be optimized for any amplitude of any move as it implement 4 different risk:reward figure in its set files (1:0.5, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3), you can notice that while the first set file work much like a scalper (just because it tries to lock-in profit sooner but sometimes it also spots big moves if price move sharply) the other three set files will work like a big “pips-catcher”.
It is fully optimized (walk forward optimization type with progressive out-of-the sample periods to avoid curve fitting risk) to work with the most liquid and followed pair: EurUsd (EurUsd is always the top pair under the trader's radar and for this reason it is very suitable for this EA)
WindExpansion is ultimately a good solution if you want to get your reliable edge in a relaxed environment; it isn't a “get quick rich scheme” any serious trader aims to have stability over the years and at same time a good night's sleep because you are sure to trade with something that you know deeply.

I use this product since the beginning of this year which is certainly a very short period of time to write a review. But after analyzing a proven track record of the last two years provided by another user I already have a clear picture of the EA.
With the authors set files the stop loss is tight and take profit is partly far away to wait for the rare strong moves. But these are exactly the trades that will have a fantastic chance risk ratio and can destroy a grid system in the long run. The hard_factor money management is a decent option as described by Carmine in the comment section.
I can fully recommend this product as one of the very rare non curve fitted EAs to diversify the Forex portfolio of any serious trader.
Thanks Carmine for this product and your great support.
