This Expert Advisor (EA) operates based on simple trading signals derived from an oscillator.
It executes sell orders when the oscillator crosses below the overbought level and buy orders when it crosses above the oversold level. Signals are confirmed at the close of a bar if the specified level has been crossed.
The fractal_weightoscillator_htf indicator, embedded within this EA, serves primarily for enhanced trend visualization within the Strategy Tester. It is inactive in other operational modes.
To ensure proper functionality, compile and place the fractal_weightoscillator.ex5 and fractal_weightoscillator_htf.ex5 indicator files into your MetaTrader 5 terminal's \mql5\indicators directory.
Upon compilation, the exp_fractal_weightoscillator.ex5 expert file incorporates the fractal_weightoscillator.ex5 and fractal_weightoscillator_htf.ex5 indicators as integral resources. Consequently, these indicators are not strictly required to be present in the terminal folder for the EA to function. This integration is achieved by embedding the indicator code directly into the EA.
The indicator executable files have been embedded as resources at the global scope.
resource "\indicators\fractal_weightoscillator.ex5"
resource "\indicators\fractal_weightoscillator_htf.ex5"
The string paths to these embedded indicators within the OnInit() function have been updated accordingly.
This approach allows the compiled EA to be used independently on other trade terminals without needing separate indicator installations.
Please note that the TradeAlgorithms.mqh library file enables the use of Expert Advisors with brokers offering non-zero spreads and the capability to set Stop Loss and Take Profit simultaneously with position opening.
Default EA input parameters were utilized for the testing period. Stop Loss and Take Profit were not employed during these tests.
