Catcher Trends

What It Does

During strong directional movements, the probability always leans towards moving along the trend. This is the probability utilized by the fully automated Catcher Trends robot, abbreviated CT.

Trades are opened only in the trend direction and based on important levels. CT enters the market by its own algorithm using pending stop orders with predefined stop loss and take profit. This minimizes the slippages when opening trades, and stop loss prevents the unforeseen losses.

The order placement point as well as take profit and stop loss values are calculated every hour according to the latest changes in the price. The EA constantly monitors the market in anticipation of strong directional movements.

The average frequency of market entries is once a week.
