Avalanche EA: Random Entries and Loss-Based Position Scaling
Summary
This Expert Advisor variation chooses each initial trade direction randomly, opening either a buy or a sell from a random-number draw. It starts with a configured base lot size, while stop loss and take profit can be disabled. The position-sizing rule increases the next trade's volume by a set expansion factor after a losing close and continues increasing volume until a profitable close occurs alongside a balance above the strategy's recorded maximum balance.
The description says that trade transactions are monitored to detect market exits and that the EA tracks the previous maximum balance. If the broker rejects an order for insufficient funds, the calculated volume resets to the starting lot size. The post provides no performance results or risk analysis, and random direction plus escalating size after losses can create substantial exposure during extended losing sequences. Its mention of example real-tick charts is not accompanied by evidence sufficient to assess profitability or drawdown.
