Trend Magnete

The Expert Advisor tries to enter the market at the beginning of a trend. If the price moves in the unfavorable direction, the EA hedges the deal by placing an opposite order with a larger volume. The EA will change direction in the course of the trend until it is captured.

The minimum distance for changing direction is specified by the Min Turn Step parameter, the actual distance can be longer and depends on the current volatility, it is controlled by the Mult Factor Next Orders parameter.

The EA shows good results on pairs with high volatility.

Recommended currency pairs: EURJPY, USDJPY, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, EURUSD
