A Candle-Direction Expert Advisor That Adds to Profitable Positions

Summary

The document describes an automated trading approach that opens an initial position in the direction of the current candle. When the trade moves favorably by a configured point threshold, the system adds volume to the position. It can begin trading once the candle body exceeds a chosen size and may add again when a later bar arrives and the threshold condition is met.

The system records the number of additions, most recent trade price, and most recent trade volume in a position comment. The description explains the basic entry and scaling logic, but provides no performance results, risk controls, exit rules, or evidence that the approach is profitable. Its usefulness is therefore limited to understanding the trade construction method; evaluating it would require additional specification and testing.

Key ideas

• The initial position follows the direction of the active candle.
• The system increases position volume after favorable movement passes a configured point threshold.
• A minimum candle body size can gate the initial entry.
• Addition details are stored as a count, last trade price, and last trade volume.
• The description does not provide exit logic, risk controls, or performance evidence.
