BSI Histogram Color-Change Trading System for EURUSD

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document describes an Expert Advisor that trades signals from the BSI indicator. A signal is generated when a bar closes and the indicator histogram changes color. The system requires a compiled BSI indicator file, and it notes that a supporting trade algorithms library can accommodate brokers with nonzero spreads and orders that set stop loss and take profit when opened.

The article refers to chart examples and tests on EURUSD using an eight-hour timeframe in 2015, with the default Expert Advisor settings. Stop loss and take profit were not used in those tests. No numerical test results or performance statistics are included in the text, so it does not establish profitability or robustness. The signal rule is described at a high level, without details on position sizing, exit logic, or how the strategy behaves across other markets and periods.

Key ideas

  • The Expert Advisor enters on a BSI histogram color change confirmed at bar close.
  • Running it requires the compiled BSI indicator file.
  • The referenced test used EURUSD on an eight-hour timeframe in 2015 with default settings.
  • Stop loss and take profit were omitted from the described test.
  • No numerical performance evidence, sizing rules, or detailed exit logic is provided.
