MAD Scalper Expert Advisor

MAD - Moving Average Distance

The MAD Scalper Expert Advisor uses ATR and the distance to a moving average to determine if price has the potential for reversion (mean reversion). Trades are closed when price returns to mean (moving average) + buffer. We use ATR as our MA_Buffer.

MAD includes an averaging feature. The range is determined by ATR and the RangeMultiplier. The higher the RangeMultiplier the further apart the averaging trades will be.

Works on all time frames and pairs.

Suggestions:

 It works best on the least volatile pairs (EURUSD, AUDCHF, AUDNZD, EURCHF, EURGBP, NZDCHF, NZDJPY). I prefer lower time frames with a smaller MA period (15M time frame, 50 MA). This allows the MA to catch up quicker in major trends and avoid catastrophe before MaxPairLoss kicks in. 

No EA should be left alone. Human intervention is a must. Turn this off during major news events.
