Noborizaka Dual USD/JPY

This martingale averaging EA, which carries two logics: trend-following in trending markets and counter-trend in range markets.

Each logic includes a distinct stop-out function to reduce bankruptcy risk.

■ Trend-following logic

The trend is determined by a long-term daily moving average. In an uptrend, when oscillator indicators are “oversold,” buy on dips; when “overbought,” sell on rallies.

■ Counter-trend logic

In a range market, determined by ADX, enter counter-trend positions when oscillator indicators are “overbought” or “oversold.” However, do not enter when the short-term trend is moving against you.

■ Technical Stop-Out Function

Different stop-out logics are installed for the trend-following and counter-trend logics. When trend-following, if the long-term moving average trend reverses and new short- or mid-term lows/highs are updated, a stop-out is executed. When counter-trend, if oscillator indicators are extremely “overbought” or “oversold” and the latest low/high is updated, a stop-out is executed.

• Auto-fit of averaging width
• Entry halt during market shock
• Stop-out function for each logic
• Higher time-frame trend-following
• Averaging width expansion feature
• Partial take-profit on averaging

Backtest from 2014 to 2025 (11 years, TDS) shows a maximum drawdown of about 13.2% ($2,147).

■ Auto-fit of averaging width

It features automatic fitting of averaging width by ATR. Since the averaging width is determined from the ATR ratio, no explicit averaging width setting is required (minimum and maximum values can be set). Also, profit-taking width is calculated from the averaging width.

■ Setting of averaging multiplier

You can set the averaging multiplier for finer lot adjustments. In default settings, trend-following logic is 1.2x, and counter-trend logic is 1.1x.

Guidance for lot size

Trend-following logic: averaging multiplier 1.2x, maximum positions 18.

Maximum lot = 1.26 lots (one side)

Counter-trend logic: averaging multiplier 1.1x, maximum positions 20.

Maximum lot = 0.57 lots (one side)

■ Averaging width expansion feature

As the number of averaging increases, the averaging width can be expanded. You can specify the number of positions at which to start expanding the width and by how much to expand (Pips).

With the above settings, if the original averaging width was 20 pips,

■ ATR filter

If the set ATR value is exceeded, new positions are halted. (Default false: unused)

■ Bollinger Band filter

If the price exceeds the Bollinger Band upper band, new sell entries are blocked; if it falls below the lower band, new buy entries are blocked. The Bollinger Band period and standard deviation are configurable. The default settings are as follows.

When current price is above BB +2α

Stop new buy entries

When current price is below BB −2α

Stop new sell entries

■ TrailingTop function

When the average acquisition price of averaging becomes positive, by using the trailing stop function you can secure a certain profit while potentially gaining additional profit. Note: trailing orders are placed in reference to the average acquisition price of averaging.

■ ATR trailing feature

This automatically updates the trailing stop width using ATR values. (Default is unused)

To use this feature, the parameters for the “Trailing Stop Function” must also be set to true. The following parameter settings for “Trailing Stop Function” are also carried over to the ATR trailing feature.

• Trailing order update time (seconds)
• Trailing order update Pips
• Trailing start position count

■ Higher-timeframe trend following

By default, the system uses the daily chart with a short-term EMA (period 10) and a long-term SMA (period 40). When the short-term MA is above the long-term MA, it isBuy-only; when the short-term MA is below the long-term MA, it isSell-only. The periods are configurable.

■ Temporary entry halt after execution 

After an entry is filled, new entries are halted for the specified time (minutes).

■ Loss-limited stop-out

If the loss exceeds the specified amount, all positions are closed. (Default false: unused)

■ Backtest speed-up and load reduction measures

By processing tick-by-tick tasks at a specified interval, backtests run faster and reduce the load on the PC or VPS running the EA.
