Introducing A Versatile Trailing Stop Expert Advisor

In the dynamic realm of forex trading, Expert Advisors (EAs) are indispensable for automating strategies and enhancing decision-making efficiency.

Overview

CueMaster is an MQL4-based Expert Advisor crafted to empower traders with automated decision-making and trade execution. Below, we explore the core features and strategies of this powerful EA.

Dynamic Trailing Stop

CueMaster EA standout feature is its dynamic trailing stop mechanism, which traders can toggle using the boolean variable Trall_on. When enabled, this mechanism secures additional gains from profitable trades while mitigating potential losses.

  • Tral_Start: Sets the starting point for the trailing stop, measured in points.
  • Tral_Size: Defines the increment for the trailing stop, determining how closely it tracks the price.
Money Management

Sound money management is critical for successful trading, and CueMaster offers customizable options to help traders manage risk and lot sizes effectively.

  • Risk: Specifies the percentage of the account balance at risk per trade. If set to 0, the EA uses a fixed lot size as defined by DefaultLot.
  • DefaultLot: The fixed lot size applied when Risk is set to 0.
  • MaxLot: Caps the maximum allowable lot size per trade.
  • FixLot: A boolean variable that determines whether the lot size is fixed (true) or adjusted dynamically based on risk (false).
Trading Strategies

CueMaster accommodates various trading strategies, allowing traders to select methods that suit their preferences.

  • Method 1: Employs a Martingale strategy, where the lot size increases following a losing trade.
  • Method 2: Utilizes an alternative strategy, potentially incorporating parameters like Dist.
Strategy Breakdown

  • Profit and Stop Loss:
    • DefaultProfit: The default profit target, measured in points, for successful trades.
    • StopLoss: Defines the stop loss in points; if set to 0, no stop loss is applied.
  • Trailing Stop:
    • Controlled by Trall_on; when set to true, the EA applies a trailing stop.
    • Tral_Start specifies the initial trailing stop value.
    • Tral_Size sets the step size for the trailing stop.
  • Money Management:
    • Risk greater than 0 triggers dynamic lot size calculation based on the risk percentage per trade.
    • A Risk of 0 prompts the use of the fixed lot size defined by DefaultLot.
    • MaxLot limits the maximum lot size.
    • FixLot, when true, fixes the lot size; if false, the size is determined dynamically based on risk.
  • Trading Method (Metod):
    • Setting Metod to 1 activates a Martingale strategy, increasing lot sizes after losses.
    • Setting Metod to 2 activates an alternative strategy, which may involve additional parameters like Dist.
The attached EA is a sophisticated EA, combining a dynamic trailing stop mechanism with robust money management and versatile trading methods, offering traders flexibility and control in executing their strategies.
