A One-Minute Forex Scalping EA with Equity and Trailing Stops

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document describes an automated scalping system called Angry Bird. It is said to react sensitively to price movement and includes controls such as an equity stop, equity risk management, a trailing stop, a timeout, and a maximum duration for open trades. The suggested setup is a one-minute chart on a currency pair with a narrow spread, with EUR/USD given as an example.

The material offers operating suggestions but does not explain entry or exit signals, parameter settings, or the logic behind its trades. A heading refers to testing results, yet no results or performance figures are included. Consequently, readers cannot assess profitability, drawdown, trade frequency, or robustness from this description. The emphasis on spreads and protective controls indicates practical execution and risk concerns, but the document provides too little detail to reproduce or evaluate the strategy.
