A Multi-Currency Forex EA with Four Technical Indicators

Summary

Achmad Hidayat describes Super-G, an automated Forex system built for the 2012 trading championship. It combines MACD, Stochastic Oscillator, Parabolic SAR, and Momentum signals to open positions across multiple currency pairs, with a trailing stop intended to protect gains. Hidayat says he used ten pairs after reducing the original set to meet the contest’s automated testing time limit.

The interview also recounts his development experience and risk choices. He attributes a poor prior contest result to using roughly 90% of margin and a trailing take-profit that did not trigger; for this contest, he describes allocating 10% of margin per pair, while acknowledging that the approach remains aggressive. He refers to positive backtests and predicts a large contest gain, but the interview provides no independently verified performance data. Its strategy description is brief and offers no entry rules, parameter settings, or risk-adjusted results, so it is not enough to reproduce or assess the system.

Key ideas

• Super-G combines MACD, Stochastic, Parabolic SAR, and Momentum to generate Forex trades.
• The EA operates across multiple currency pairs and uses a trailing stop.
• Hidayat links a previous weak contest result to aggressive margin use and a trailing take-profit that did not trigger.
• The interview provides no detailed rules or verified performance evidence for evaluating the EA.
