EA Description.
Multi Trend is an EA automated trading system for MT4 that works with 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour time frames. It trades based on its own scoring evaluation using 4-hour highs and lows. The internal logic determines whether the yen is weak or strong against the cross currency in general, and trades accordingly. The default setting is optimized for USDJPY, but by changing the trailing stop value from 1.0 to 4.0, it can be used for GBPJPY, EURJPY, AUDJPY, and other currencies. Operating Environment ・Operates on MT4 charts from 1 minute to 4 hours. It works with all crossed yen currencies. The time zone for trading】 Trades will be conducted from 7:00 to 17:59 server time. Only GMT+2 (winter)/+3 (summer) brokers are supported. Entry tends to be long when the score is in the positive range, and long positions are closed or short positions are held when the score is in the negative range. The details of the parameters and logic are not disclosed to the public, but you can specify the period of time to pick up 4-hourly data (equivalent to 24 hours for 6 4-hourly legs) in the range of 3 to 30 legs. The default is to collect data for 10 4-hourly legs, and a positive judgment is made when the overall price of the cross currency is near a high, while a negative judgment is made when the price is near a low. The candlesticks to be collected include the GBPJPY, EURJPY, and AUDJPY currency pairs in addition to the USDJPY. Each currency pair is multiplied by its importance and averaged to produce an overall evaluation value, and a short entry is made when this value is negative and a long entry when it is positive. Among the cross currency pairs, USDJPY and GBPJPY are given higher importance, while EURJPY and AUDJPY are given lower importance. The trading direction is basically the same even if you switch the time axis of the chart, but I recommend using the 5-minute or 15-minute chart because the 5-minute and 15-minute charts are more stable. In my experience of creating EAs, the performance of EAs that incorporate a trailing stop function almost always decline. A trailing stop order is an order method that slides the stop order (stop price) in the direction of the advantage by a certain amount when the price moves in the advantageous direction. This means that logic-based settlement performs better than settlement with a trailing stop. Is there any way to achieve higher performance with an EA that uses trailing stops? This EA "Multi Trend" is the result of our efforts to solve this problem.
Long entry with a total score of plus 10 or more
The unique feature of this EA is that it evaluates scores based on multi-currency analysis and sets the level of importance for each currency to determine whether to go long or short. Multi-currency pair monitoring trading is known as one of the most difficult methods to create an EA. In the case of discretionary trading, for example, there is a method of watching the price movements of other cross currency pairs when trading the dollar-yen. Even though this is a common practice in discretionary trading, it is a bit difficult to convert it into an EA. This is because some FX companies have symbols after currency pairs. In the case of "USDJPY-cd" or "GBPJPY.oj5k", it is the part of "-cd" or ".oj5k". But don't worry, this EA automatically detects this "-cd" and ".oj5k" part and successfully monitors the 4 currencies "USDJPY", "GBPJPY", "EURJPY" and "AUDJPY" at all times. We have not tested it with all FX companies, so we cannot assure you that it is 100% safe, but we have confirmed that it works with OANDAJAPAN, Gaitame Finest, FXTF, and Rakuten FX. Enough about the internal program, let me explain how it actually works. By default, trailing stop mode is enabled. If you want to operate with USDJPY, you can leave the Stop Stop at 1.0 (100 pips), but if you want to operate with "GBPJPY," "EURJPY," or "AUDJPY," you should set the Stop Stop value at around 4.0 (400 pips). Even if you disable the trailing stop mode, setting the value of the stop stop at around 4.0 (400 pips) will stabilize your results. You may wonder why only USDJPY has a stop loss value of 100 pips. Actually, there is no problem with 400 pips for USDJPY as well, but if the stop loss is 400 pips, it will be closed by the internal logic and the trailing stop function cannot be utilized. For this reason, we set the stop order value to 100 pips only for USDJPY.
Trailing stop rate USDJPY=1.0 (100 pips)
The above backtest was run on a 5-minute dollar-yen chart with default settings.
If you move it on a 1-minute or 15-minute time frame, you will get the same results.
Incidentally, for currency pairs other than USDJPY, a stop order value of 100 pips will result in poor performance. At least 300 pips is required.
Trailing stop rate EURJPY=4.0 (400 pips)
Trailing stop rate GBPJPY=4.0 (400 pips)
Trailing stop rate AUDJPY=4.0 (400 pips)
This EA is a trend-following EA that trades forward against the trend direction. In an uptrend, the price rises to higher highs, so the logic is designed to hold long positions near the highs. By changing the settings, you can close the position at 18:00 server time, but it is not recommended as the results will be lower. The default setting is to open a long position when the score is +10 or higher. On the downside, a score of zero or less will open a short position. For long positions, the sensitivity can be adjusted (range 10-30), and long entries are made when the score value is above this value. The nature of the EA is that it is a range break and trend follow method, so it is not good in a range market. Therefore, in a range market, the asset transition will be flat, but when a strong trend occurs, a large profit can be made. In addition, when we ran a back test on the JP225 (Nikkei 225), which is easily linked to the cross currency, it showed high performance as well as the cross currency.
Backtest on JP225 (Nikkei 225)
As for the JP225 version, we do not plan to sell it at this time due to the limited number of FX firms that can operate it.

Implemented trailing stop mode Automatically follow the stop order rate only when it moves in a favorable direction Trailing stop orders are now available. This is an order method that allows you to efficiently aim to lock in profits while controlling the risk of loss. The stop order is moved when the rate moves in a favorable direction by a specified number of pips or more. At this time, the limit order is also changed. 2, Revision of the maximum number of entries per day MaxError = 30;// Maximum number of consecutive entries (range 20-300) This is a protection program in case an order does not go through due to insufficient margin, server error, etc., and the order falls into an infinite loop. The number of entries had previously been fixed, but has been modified to allow the number of entries to be set freely. The timing for resetting the number of times in the program is 3 times: 4:00 (10:00-11:00 Japan time), 11:00 (17:00-18:00 Japan time), and 18:00 (24:00-1:00 Japan time) server time. If the maximum limit is reached, for example by manually making a settlement, the count will be reset to 0 by restarting MT4. 3, Added a setting to not submit orders when the spread widens. Allowable Spread Enter the difference between the Bid and Ask values e.g. 50 => 5 pips Default MaxSpread = 50 4, Added the ability to choose between discretionary mode and automatic trading mode. Added the following items to the property items ManualMode = false; //true to set to discretionary mode false to enable auto buy/sell So far, even after manual closing, as long as the sign continued to appear, the position was taken in the same direction again. Added setting to not place a new order without stopping the EA. Setting ManualMode to true will put the EA in discretionary mode and no new and close orders will be placed. 5, Added a setting to enter only in the long direction. The default setting is to hold positions only in the long direction. To have both short and long positions, set OnlyLong = false.

Just like discretionary trading, there are those that decide trading and settlement timings by combining indicators, those that repeatedly buy or sell at certain price (pips) intervals, and trading methods that utilize market anomalies or temporal features. The variety is as rich as the methods in discretionary trading.
To categorize simply,
・Scalping (Type where trades are completed within a few minutes to a few hours),
・Day Trading (Type where trades are completed within several hours to about a day),
・Swing Trading (Type where trades are conducted over a relatively long period of about 1 day to 1 week)
・Grid/Martingale Trading (Holding multiple positions at equal or unequal intervals and settling all once a profit is made. Those that gradually increase the lot number are called Martingale.)
・Anomaly EA (Mid-price trading, early morning scalping)
However, a substantial advantage of automated trading is its ability to limit and predict risks beforehand.
[Risk]
Inherent to forex trading are the trading risks that undeniably exist in automated trading as well.
・Lot Size Risk
Increasing the lot size forcibly due to a high winning rate can, in rare instances, depending on the EA, lead to substantial Pips loss when a loss occurs. It is crucial to verify the SL Pips and the number of positions held before operating with an appropriate lot.
・Rapid Market Fluctuation Risk
There are instances where market prices fluctuate rapidly due to index announcements or unforeseen news. System trading does not account for such unpredictable market movements, rendering it incapable of making decisions on whether to settle in advance or abstain from trading. As a countermeasure, utilizing tools that halt the EA based on indicator announcements or the VIX (fear index) is also possible.
[Benefits]
・Operates 24 hours a day
If there is an opportunity, system trading will execute trades on your behalf consistently. It proves to be an extremely convenient tool for those unable to allocate time to trading.
・Trades dispassionately without being swayed by emotions
There is an absence of self-serving rule modifications, a common human tendency, such as increasing the lot size after consecutive losses in discretionary trading or, conversely, hastily securing profits with minimal gains.
・Accessible for beginners
To engage in Forex trading, there is no prerequisite to study; anyone using system trading will achieve the same results.
[Disadvantages]
・Cannot increase trading frequency at will
Since system trading operates based on pre-programmed conditions, depending on the type of EA, it might only execute trades a few times a month.
・Suitability may vary with market conditions
Depending on the trading type of the EA, there are periods more suited to trend trading and periods more suited to contrarian trading, making consistent results across all periods unlikely. While the previous year might have yielded good results, this year's performance might not be as promising, necessitating some level of discretion in determining whether it is an opportune time to operate.
・MT4 (MetaTrader 4. An account needs to be opened with a Forex company that offers MT4.)
・EA (A program for automated trading)
・The operating deposit required to run the EA
・A PC that can run 24 hours or a VPS (Virtual Private Server), where a virtual PC is hosted on a cloud server to run MT4.
Additionally, there are both demo and real accounts available. You can experience trading with virtual money by applying for a demo account. After opening a real account, you select the connection server assigned by the Forex broker, enter the password, and log in to the account.
When you deposit money into your account using the method specified by the forex broker, the funds will be reflected in your MT4 account, and you can trade.
Firstly, download the purchased EA file from your My Page on GogoJungle. You will download a zip (compressed) file, so right-click to extract it and retrieve the file named ‘◯◯◯ (EA name)_A19GAw09 (any 8 alphanumeric characters).ex4’ from inside.
Next, launch MT4 and navigate to ‘File’ → ‘Open Data Folder’ → ‘MQL4’ → ‘Experts’ folder, and place the ex4 file inside. Once done, close MT4 and restart it. Then, go to the upper menu ‘Tools’ → ‘Options’, and under ‘Expert Advisors’, ensure ‘Allow automated trading’ and ‘Allow DLL imports’ are checked, then press OK to close.
The necessary currency pair and time frame for the correct operation of the EA are specified on the EA sales page. Refer to this information and open the chart of the correct currency pair time frame (e.g., USDJPY5M for a USD/Yen 5-minute chart).
Within the menu navigator, under ‘Expert Advisors’, you will find the EA file name you placed earlier. Click to select it, then drag & drop it directly onto the chart to load the EA. Alternatively, you can double-click the EA name to load it onto the selected chart.
If ‘Authentication Success’ appears in the upper left of the chart, the authentication has been successful. To operate the EA, you need to keep your PC running 24 hours. Therefore, either disable the automatic sleep function or host MT4 on a VPS and operate the EA.
If you want to use it with an account other than the authenticated one, you need to reset the registered account.
To reset the account, close the MT4 where the Web authentication is registered, then go to My Page on GogoJungle > Use > Digital Contents > the relevant EA > press the ‘Reset’ button for the registration number, and the registered account will be released.
When the account is in a reset state, using the EA with another MT4 account will register a new account.
Also, you can reset the account an unlimited number of times.
→ Items to Check When EA is Not Operating
1 lot = 100,000 currency units
0.1 lot = 10,000 currency units
0.01 lot = 1,000 currency units
For USD/JPY, 1 lot would mean holding 100,000 dollars.
The margin required to hold lots is determined by the leverage set by the Forex broker.
If the leverage is 25 times, the margin required to hold 10,000 currency units of USD/JPY would be:
10000*109 (※ at a rate of 109 yen per dollar) ÷ 25 = 43,600 yen.
・Risk-Return Ratio: Total Profit and Loss during the period ÷ Maximum Drawdown
・Maximum Drawdown: The largest unrealized loss during the operation period
・Maximum Position Number: This is the maximum number of positions that the EA can theoretically hold at the same time
・TP (Take Profit): The set profit-taking Pips (or specified amount, etc.) in the EA's settings
・SL (Stop Loss): The set maximum loss pips (or specified amount, etc.) in the EA's settings
・Trailing Stop: Instead of settling at a specified Pips, once a certain profit is made, the settlement SL is raised at a certain interval (towards the profit), maximizing the profit. It is a method of settlement.
・Risk-Reward Ratio (Payoff Ratio): Average Profit ÷ Average Loss
・Hedging: Holding both buy and sell positions simultaneously (Some FX companies also have types where hedging is not allowed)
