Averaging EA 17.0

Metatrader Expert Advisor (MT4/MT5)

  • Overview

    The PZ Averaging EA is a powerful trading robot designed for use on the MetaTrader platform. Its main function is to recover losing trades by using the averaging strategy. This involves increasing the exposure to the market in a controlled manner by placing consecutive market orders at fixed price intervals. This allows traders to find a profitable exit point on a market retracement, turning a losing trade into a winning one.

    One of the key advantages of the PZ Averaging EA is its ease of use. The EA is designed to be simple to operate and supervise, with trade execution possible using chart buttons. Additionally, the EA offers full customization of position management, giving traders complete control over their risk exposure. This makes it ideal for traders of all levels, from novice to experienced.

    The PZ Averaging EA also implements various automated entry strategies, making it possible to trade using custom indicators. The EA is able to trade micro accounts starting from $1,000 and includes session filters that can be applied to automated entries. This allows traders to trade only during specific forex sessions, further reducing risk.

    The EA ensures that the initial trade is managed independently to avoid performing a recovery. First, the EA will attempt to break even to preserve capital, and then apply a configurable trailing stop and take profit. If instead the trade still goes straight into negative territory, the EA will perform a recovery. The averaging process is fully customizable, with the spacing and lot sizes of trades able to be increased from one block to the next.

    It is important to note that the PZ Averaging EA trades using market orders, and as such is compatible with NFA/FIFO rules and accepted by US brokers. The take-profit for the first trade is evaluated in stealth mode, without the use of a TP order, and trades have no individual SL or TP as they are managed as a basket. Session filters are implemented in GMT time, and trades have no individual SL or TP as they are managed as a basket.

    In conclusion, the PZ Averaging EA offers a complete, hassle-free trading framework. Once configured, traders can trade with ease from the chart buttons, with the EA managing the trade and booking a profit. The EA is designed to be reliable and efficient, making it an excellent tool for traders looking to reduce preventable losses and increase their chances of success in the markets.

    • First, the EA tries to perform break-even to assure capital preservation.
    • Secondly, the EA applies a configurable trailing stop and take profit.
    • If the trade goes straight into negative, the EA performs a recovery.

    The averaging process is fully customizable, spacing and lot-sizes can be increased from one block of trades to the next.

    Usage Tips

    • Load the EA and trade using the chart buttons
    • Don't trade any other EA in the same symbol
    • Take only one initial trade per symbol -never two or more-
    • If the buy/sell buttons are not displayed, it means the EA is busy
    • The EA can trade many symbols independently at the same time
    • But be careful: never, ever, load the EA twice on the same symbol
    • There is no need to set a different Magic Number to trade different symbols
    • Trade from a VPS or leave your trading computer turned on 24/5
    • Try to never unload the EA to assure the atomicity of the process
    • Great to trade overbought or oversold situations
    • Avoid trading against the trend

    The purpose of this EA is not to be profitable by itself, but to avoid preventable losses within the limits of the account free margin.

    • The EA uses market orders, variable spreads and news should not be an issue

    • However, the EA will trade in the tester with any settings, regardless of risk

    • The EA trades a manual lot size: the tester won't reflect compounding profits
    • The session filters are implemented in GMT time and only apply to automated entries

    Trading Guidelines

    • Minimum deposit: 3,000$
    • Suitable instruments: Forex, Commodities, Gold (long only), Indices (long only)
    • Suitable timeframes: All and any
  • Input parameters

    When loading the expert to any chart, you will be presented with a set of options as input parameters. Don't despair if you think they are too many, because parameters are grouped into self-explanatory blocks.

    Lotsize for first trade
    This parameter controls the size of the initial trade. A smaller lotsize decreases the net exposure of the deal.
    Break-even in pips
    This parameter controls at which profit in pips the EA moves the stop-loss above/below the open price securing profits. This parameter only affects the first trade, not during the recovery process.
    Break-even Behavior
    Upon break-even, the EA can secure half the profits of the trade or move the SL to the open price, as you wish. If you want to let profits run and maximize the first trade, choose the latter.
    Trailing Stop
    Percentage of the max. favorable excursion (MFE) used as trailing-stop. A small value is a tight stop, and a big value is a wide stop. This parameter only affects the first trade, not during the recovery process.
    Trailing Step in pips
    Minimum increase in pips for the trailing stop value and, at the same time, the minimum distance from the new stoploss and the current market price. This parameter only affects the first trade, not during the recovery process.
    Take Profit in pips
    Steath take-profit for the first trade. Not used during the recovery process.
    Entry Strategy
    The EA implements a set of automated entry strategies to provide some degree of automation. Not all entry strategies will greatly perform in all market conditions, but you can switch between them as you see fit. Options are: CCI, ADX, RSI, Bollinger Bands, AC, AO, Alligator, MACD, PSAR, RVI, Stochastic, Heiken Ashi, Turtle Trading, Breakouts, Buy Constantly and Sell Constantly.
    Custom Indicator Name
    If you choose to trade using your own custom indicator, type the indicator name in this parameter. The EA will call it via iCustom() internally. For more information about this, read the user guide.
    Custom Indicator Signal Buffer
    If you choose to trade using your own custom indicator, type the signal buffer number in this parameter. The EA will call it via iCustom() internally. For more information about this, read the user guide.
    Trade Assian Session
    If enabled, the EA will start trades during the Assian Session.
    Trade European Session
    If enabled, the EA will start trades during the European Session.
    Trade American Session
    If enabled, the EA will start trades during the American Session.
    Blocks of Trades
    Amount of blocks of trades to place during the recovery process. When a trade block ends, the lot size and spacing are incremented using the multipliers specified below.
    Trades per Block
    Amount of trades for each block. Each trade is separated from each other using the Spacing.
    Spacing
    Distance in pips between trades of the same block.
    Profit Target in Pips
    Profit target in pips for the recovery process. When the target is met, all trades are closed at the same time, at a net profit.
    Lotsize Multiplier
    Lotsize multiplier from one block to another block.
    Spacing Multiplier
    Spacing multiplier from one block to another block.
    Magic Number
    The magic number allows the EA to identify its own trades when reloaded or the platform restarts. As a rule of thumb, never change it.
