Five-Minute Scalper EA Settings for Retracement Trading

Summary

This document describes settings for a scalping Expert Advisor presented as a retracement strategy, intended for a five-minute chart and named for EUR/USD and NASDAQ stocks. It lists controls for moving-average lengths, trade size, maximum trades, stop loss, take profit, money- or percentage-based exits, trailing stops, and break-even behavior. It also describes optional equity-risk controls and an option to increase lot size after a losing trade.

The text is a parameter guide, not a tested strategy report: it supplies no entry rules beyond saying the EA trades with the open candle, and gives no backtest, performance figures, or validation. Many settings are described through value ranges without specifying units or how they interact, and the retracement logic itself is not explained. The suggested demo use and drawdown controls signal that execution and sizing choices matter, but the document does not establish that these settings control risk reliably.

Key ideas

• The EA is presented as a retracement scalper for five-minute charts, including EUR/USD and NASDAQ stocks.

• Optional controls cover equity risk and increasing position size after losses.
• The description does not explain the entry logic in detail or provide performance evidence.
• Several parameter units and interactions are left unspecified.
