Parameters:
The following parameters are intended for the EURUSD symbol on a daily timeframe and are not optimized. You should adjust them according to the symbol and timeframe you intend to use.
Stop Loss:
(1000 as default) Sets a safety limit for losses in points.
Take Profit:
(250 as default) Sets the profit target in points.
Trade Volume:
(1.0 as default) Specifies the lot size for each order.
Affordable Order Slippage:
(3 as default) Defines the acceptable deviation from the order price at the time of execution.
Minimum Bar Size for Signal:
(300 points as default) This is the primary filtering parameter for the EA. An inverse reaction often follows a significant market movement (shock). This parameter defines the minimum bar size that is considered a shock. You can experiment with different values, but it should not be set lower than the Take Profit level.
Maximum Bar Size for Signal:
(2000 points as default) This is the secondary filtering parameter for the EA. There is a distinction between minor shocks and major market events (crashes, booms, interventions, etc.). While the original strategy is inspired by major events, this EA focuses on smaller shocks. This parameter sets the maximum size for a shock. Refer to the provided image dated 10.07.2013 for an example. You can experiment with different values.
Confidence Coefficient:
(Golden Ratio as default) This is an indicator parameter. Avoid changing it unless you have a thorough understanding of its function. For more details, please refer to the indicator's documentation.
Moving Average Period:
(3 as default) This is an indicator parameter. Avoid changing it unless you have a thorough understanding of its function. For more details, please refer to the indicators page.
Test Results:
EURUSD, D1, Testing Interval: 01.01.2012 - 01.08.2026, Leverage: 1:100, Initial Deposit: 10,000 USD.
Tips:
The inverse reaction strategy can be unstable immediately following major economic events, which can cause significant market shifts. This is evident in the test results, where the last reported loss occurred during a Federal Reserve speech that impacted long-term expectations. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid implementing this strategy immediately after such news releases.
This Expert Advisor (EA) was developed solely to demonstrate the functionality of the inverse reaction strategy in isolation. It is not a sophisticated or intelligent EA. As mentioned on the indicator's main page, the strategy is significantly more effective when combined with other technical analysis tools. For further details, consult the indicator's page. Consequently, it is strongly advised not to use this EA for live trading under any circumstances.
