A ColorCoppock Direction-Change Expert Advisor for USDCHF

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This document describes a MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor that trades when the ColorCoppock oscillator changes direction. It generates a signal at bar close when the indicator’s direction differs from the previous bar. The indicator’s compiled file must be available in the terminal’s indicator directory for the advisor to use it.

The cited tests use the Expert Advisor’s default inputs and do not include stop loss or take profit settings. The document identifies a test for USDCHF on the four-hour timeframe in 2011 and points to deal-history and test-result charts, but the text provides no numerical performance statistics or discussion of drawdowns. The evidence is therefore limited to a referenced historical test, and the excerpt does not establish robustness across parameters, markets, or periods.

Key ideas

  • The Expert Advisor signals when the ColorCoppock oscillator changes direction.
  • It evaluates the signal when a bar closes.
  • The described test used default inputs without stop loss or take profit settings.
  • The referenced historical test covers USDCHF on a four-hour timeframe in 2011, with no numerical results in the text.
