Separate Long and Short Skyscraper Indicator Systems

Summary

This Expert Advisor uses the Skyscraper_Fix indicator to run separate systems for long and short trades. Inputs prefixed for each direction allow independent settings, including trade identifiers, deposit share, lot mode, and permission to open or close positions. The two systems can therefore be configured differently to reflect the possibility that market behavior is not symmetrical across rising and falling conditions.

The document recommends testing each side separately before enabling both. It notes that the reported USDJPY four-hour tests cover 2017 and used default settings without stop loss or take profit, but provides no readable performance figures or analysis of the displayed charts. The compiled indicator file is also required for the Expert Advisor to operate. The material explains configuration and testing procedure rather than establishing strategy profitability; it gives no detail about the indicator's signal formula, execution assumptions, costs, or risk controls.

Key ideas

• Long and short trades use separate settings and identifiers, allowing each direction to operate independently.
• Inputs can control position sizing mode and whether positions may be opened or closed.
• The document advises evaluating each directional system on its own before combining them.
• The referenced USDJPY test used four-hour data from 2017 and omitted stop loss and take profit.
• The Expert Advisor depends on a separately compiled Skyscraper_Fix indicator.
