Configuring a ROC-Based Expert Advisor with Trailing and Equity Controls

Summary

This product description outlines a trading expert advisor that uses a rate-of-change indicator and moving-average parameters, trades at the open of a candle, and is described as usable across time frames, major forex pairs, and NASDAQ stocks. Its settings cover position size, stop loss and take profit, maximum concurrent trades, trend-based exits, trailing stops, break-even moves, and equity drawdown controls. It also offers money- and percentage-based profit targets and trailing settings for multiple trades.

The description includes an option to increase trade size after losses, with a setting to disable that behavior, and recommends trying the system in a demo account. It supplies configurable ranges but no precise entry formula, performance data, backtest method, or evidence that the system works. The strategy’s signal rules and interaction among its many controls are therefore difficult to assess from the description alone. Increasing position size after losses can magnify exposure, making the risk settings particularly relevant.
