Trend Matrix EA

You can choose between static stop losses and dynamic trailing stops. The static option uses fixed pip distances for stop loss and take profit, while the dynamic option adjusts the stop based on market volatility. This flexibility allows you to lock in profits as the trade progresses while maintaining the flexibility to capture larger gains. The trailing stop system is designed to adapt to market movements and protect capital during reversals.

The EA supports 8 major currency pairs: AUDUSD, EURGBP, EURJPY, EURUSD, GBPJPY, NZDCAD, USDCAD, and USDJPY. It also trades XAGUSD (silver) and Brent crude oil. This broad coverage allows you to diversify your automated trading across different asset classes. Each symbol has its own set file, ensuring that the EA is configured for the specific characteristics of that market.

Version 1.5 introduces a drawdown protection system designed for prop-firm and funded accounts. This feature monitors your equity level and triggers protection when a minimum equity level or a maximum equity drawdown percentage is reached. It acts as a safety net to protect your capital and account standing. This is particularly useful for traders using accounts with strict drawdown restrictions.

The EA includes a filter that automatically avoids trading during high-impact news events. This helps prevent exposure to the volatility and slippage that often occur during major economic releases. By filtering out these periods, the system focuses on more stable market conditions. This feature is essential for traders who want to minimize the risk of adverse price movements caused by unexpected news.

You have full control over when the EA trades through the Time Management System. You can set specific trading hours or restrict the EA from operating during times of low or high volatility. This allows you to align the automated trading with your personal schedule or preferred market sessions. It provides a level of control that is often missing in standard expert advisors.

The EA offers long-only and short-only options, allowing you to restrict the direction of trades. This is useful if you have a specific market outlook or if your account rules limit trading in one direction. You can align the EA’s behavior with your broader strategy, ensuring that it only takes positions that fit your current market view. This adds a layer of strategic control to the automated system.

The system includes protections against excessive spreads and slippage. It monitors the broker’s conditions and can avoid opening trades if the spread is too wide or if slippage is likely to be high. This helps maintain the integrity of the trade execution and prevents the EA from entering at unfavorable prices. These protections are crucial for maintaining consistent performance across different brokers.

FX Automater provides dedicated low-risk .set files for each supported pair. These files are optimized to minimize exposure and reduce overall trading risk. They are designed for traders who prefer a conservative approach and want to prioritize capital preservation over aggressive growth. Using these set files allows you to trade with a lower risk profile while still utilizing the core trend-following logic of the EA.

The EA sends email and push notifications for important trading actions. This keeps you informed about the EA’s activity without needing to constantly monitor the chart. You can receive alerts on your preferred device, ensuring you stay connected to the market. This feature is helpful for monitoring the EA’s performance and responding to any issues that may arise.
