I have built a excellant EA that does not loose during violent trading. The only problem is that ranging isnt good for it. I need to find a violent up and down pair to trade. Trades any direction wthout concern. Currently forward beta testing well on EURUSD, Silver and GBPUSD. Looking for exotics or anything that moves violently in any directiion. This is not a scalping EA, but works on the principle of math. ANy thoughts on this is encouraged to share with me. Garry

You could try filtering out pairs with low average true range. Check out the function iATR: https://docs.mql4.com/indicators/iATR. Higher ATR means higher volatility. :)
Be first, be smarter, or cheat.

You should try GBP/AUD and GBP/NZD. the thing is that violent is dependable on market hours.

1 - toyko opening
2- London Opening
3- after US stock market 30 mins later.

these 3 timing is sufficient.

most violent once are EUR/USD AUD/'USD GBP/USD JPY/USD rest of them have LOW VOLUME .meaning not much action going on .. but yes we could see LOW VOLUME spikes in there but they are not as good as BIG Volume spikes specially if your EA works on match principles .

i like to see/know more info on your signal when u get in and how and why . i have something simular allready done and its working great , maybe we can incorporate 2 in 1 or something like that.

GBPCHF is the most volatil pair.

Its my own EA. trades both side of the same pair in double negative correlation with a antimartingal setup plus a little trick to reset to normal.

GBPJPY is the most violent pair. Robots can be a great tool, but let's be real -there's no perfect 'one' that will work in all environments, all the time and the scammer will try to entice you with historical data and back-testing logs. Hey, You could try using Supply / Demand Strategy.

Yes, it does hedge and profits both directions. Takes the profits out of the middle and then once its gone far enoughto buy or sale, it resets and starts again. Needs a pair that moves alot. trading live on my money account and have many pairs and multiple pairs on demo doing well. Its not a scalper, but it can work as one.

Hi Steve. I setup a demo on GBPCHF last night. The spreads not to bad. My EA works very well with IBFX AU on multiple pairs and IBFXUSA 50/1 on one pair. My TP is 28 on my real account and on demo, I set it to 8.
