Trend Intensity Index Signals for an Automated Forex Trading System
Summary
This document describes an automated trading system that uses a Trend Intensity Index oscillator. A signal is generated at the close of a bar when the indicator moves into an overbought or oversold zone, shown by a change in its color. The system is presented as an Expert Advisor, and it depends on the compiled indicator being installed in the platform's indicator directory.
The document refers to test results for USDJPY on a four-hour chart over 2017 and says the default stop settings were used, but it supplies no numerical performance measures or detailed trade rules. It does not explain how entries, exits, or risk controls work beyond the signal timing and mention of stops. The limited evidence makes it difficult to assess robustness, costs, or performance outside that example period and market.
Key ideas
- The system uses the Trend Intensity Index oscillator to generate automated trading signals.
- Signals occur at bar close when the indicator enters an overbought or oversold region.
- The Expert Advisor requires the compiled indicator file to be installed in the platform's indicator directory.
- The document cites a USDJPY four-hour test for 2017 using default stop settings, but gives no detailed performance statistics.
