Description & Settings
Trading strategy
The main idea of this Expert Advisor: is it possible to open 'BUY' positions on each new bar while the 'DeMarker' indicator is below the 'DeM: Level DOWN' level (the 'SELL' positions while the 'DeMarker' indicator is above the 'DeM: Level UP' level). By default, the 'Positions: Only one' parameter is set to 'false' - so the EA can work in the "open a new position even if there are already positions in the market" mode.
Each new position is opened at the moment of the birth of a new bar, and there is no check whether the opening price is the best.
There is no Stop Loss, Take Profit, or Trailing in the Expert Advisor - positions are closed according to the opposite signal and only if after closing the positions there will be a profit greater than zero.
