BinaryWave Standard Deviation Signals for Bar-Close Trading

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This document describes an Expert Advisor that trades signals from the BinaryWave_StDev indicator. It opens a position when a colored indicator point appears at a bar’s close, then exits when the indicator reverses direction against the open position. The approach uses the indicator’s direction changes as both entry and exit signals; the document does not explain how the indicator calculates its signals or how positions are sized.

The document refers to example trades and a backtest on EURUSD using an eight-hour timeframe and data from 2015. It says the tests used the Expert Advisor’s default settings and did not use stop-loss or take-profit orders. It supplies no performance figures or discussion of drawdown, costs, or out-of-sample validation, so the reference to test charts alone does not establish profitability. Operation also depends on the compiled indicator file being installed, and the text notes a supporting library for brokers with nonzero spreads and combined stop-loss and take-profit placement.

Key ideas

  • The Expert Advisor enters when a colored BinaryWave_StDev point appears at a bar close.
  • An opposite indicator direction change triggers an exit from an open position.
  • The cited test used EURUSD on an eight-hour timeframe during 2015.
  • The described tests used default inputs and omitted stop-loss and take-profit orders.
  • No numerical performance, drawdown, or robustness evidence is provided.
