One EA – Two Strategies – Unlimited Potential

Most traders would love to have just one consistently profitable strategy.
Position Trader EA gives you two of the most effective and popular
mean reversion strategies traded for you using institutional Dollar Cost Averaging techniques

Multi Timeframe RSI Mean Reversion

  1. The EA monitors the market you place it on for strong moves in one direction using the RSI indicator on any timeframe you select.
  2. Using a moving average cross on a lower timeframe to detect strength in the opposite direction, the EA enters an initial trade.
  3. If the trade works, the EA will automatically close it in profit at your target.
  4. If a trade goes against it, the EA will scale in automatically based on the average daily movement of the traded instrument to adjust your entry price.
  5. Once a new swing in your favour is detected, the EA exits all trades in the position in profit.
  6. If a single trade in a position gets too far into drawdown, the EA will automatically scale out of the trade and take small losses on the account.

ADR (Average Daily Range) Reversals

  1. The EA monitors the market you place it on for intraday moves beyond the normal daily range.
  2. It then waits for a signal to enter based on strength forming in the opposite direction to the initial move on either M5 or M15 timeframes.
  3. If the trade works, the EA will automatically close it in profit at your target.
  4. If a trade goes against it, the EA will scale in automatically based on the average daily movement of the traded instrument to adjust your entry price.
  5. Once a new swing in your favour is detected, the EA exits all trades in the position in profit.
  6. If a single trade in a position gets too far into drawdown, the EA will automatically scale out of the trade and take small losses on the account.

WHAT THE POSITION TRADER EA DOES

The EA will automatically scale into market structure moves using “elastic band theory”, mean reverting moves taken by the banks and institutions.

There are two built in strategies that use either the RSI indicator or extensions of the average daily range (ADR) of any forex, commodity, stock or index you want to trade.

Position trading is a method of entering the market using small risk and multiple trade entries, meaning the accuracy of the initial trade entry is less important than the way the trade is managed by the EA after entry. Markets are unpredictable and virtually impossible to time movements in with any kind of accuracy that is sustainable long term. Because of this, the majority of trading strategies and traders fail, due to being constantly stopped out before their trade ideas play out correctly.

Position trading with this EA solves that problem by altering your initial entry price if it is incorrect, using dollar cost averaging techniques employed by most banks and professional trading institutions.

You can also convert virtually any mean reversion strategy you currently trade or have traded in the past into a position trading strategy by simply taking an initial market entry using the quick trading buttons on the EA. Once this initial trade is taken, the EA will then either auto close the trade when at a designated profit level or turn the trade into a position trade by scaling in on the next leg of the market structure move for you!

Why you should be position trading

Here’s how the position trader EA can help you become a better trader
and DRAMATICALLY improve your profitability

Proper Risk Management

Every trade taken with the position trader EA is based on a fixed percentage risk of your account to keep the drawdown low. You can also choose to over-ride this and use a fixed lot size instead.

Increases Your Patience

Trading with the position trader EA automates your entries to ensure you are only taking trades in line with the strategy, stopping you over-trading.

Removes The Need For Accuracy

Position trading does not require laser precision, which most traders struggle with. Scaling into trades on market movement increases strike rate and profitability, making you more consistent.

Adjust Your Price AFTER Your Entry

Scaling into trades with DCA techniques, used by major banks and trading institutions, is a time proven way to extract money from the markets. Adjusting your entry for a more favourable price as your positions play out over time.

Automated Drawdown Control

Performing drawdown control on trades that go against you at strategic points helps to keep losses small and allows your positions time to play out. This controls your risk over time and increases your strike rate for winning trades.

Realistic Targeting Based on ADR

Targeting, based on ADR (average daily range) or percentage return based on risk, ensures position trading can make money by using achievable targets. No 15:1 risk reward ratios, just extracting money regularly from normal market movements.

Trade Like Institutions & Banks

Banks and trading institutions have been position trading and using DCA (Dollar cost averaging) techniques for decades. It’s how money is made, so basing your strategy on this technique aligns your goals with the market makers.

Flow With The Markets Movement

All markets ebb and flow randomly. Attempting to find accurate entry and exit points in a random instrument is like trying to shoot a jet with a pea-shooter! Position trading allows you to work WITH the market, extracting money, not try to force it to do what you want it to!

This farmost the best EA i've ever used. Not a "set and forget" EA, but defenitly profitable. I'm using this EA now since 3 months and experience a average profit of 25% monthly with an overall DD of max 28%. My settings are rather conservative with a 0,5% risc and 0,25% and 0,35% TP (singel and multiple position respectively). I don't use automatic DD control but i "trim" the open positions in DD as soon as the number of open positions exceeds 3 (thus starting from 4 and above). I use the EA for all the forex pairs as indicated in the EA description (no JPY a,nd CHF). Good job!!

I have been trading the Position Trader EA for four full weeks (demo), starting on 9/9. My results have been incredible. I currently have a 42.48% gain with a maximum 12.9% drawdown, which recovered fairly quickly. I am aware that I entered into a favorable market condition for the EA and that this will not happen every month. My risk may be too high, but I can easily adjust that, and would be very happy to have a much smaller percentage gain than 42.48% a month. Lee is a great teacher and programmer. I highly recommend that you check out his methods and products.

I bought the EA last week, still testing it but with a real account and small money. I am really impressed because it works very well so far and you can also launch some manual orders. The EA will also manage them to a good result. I also insert the market reversal alert indicator in, to add some orders. Many Thanks Lee

Use A VPS So Your EA Is Always Monitoring For New Trades & Managing Existing Trades Correctly!

It is recommended that when auto trading with EAs you use a reliable VPS (virtual personal server) to run your trading terminals.

Watch the video to see how to setup this EA on a VPS, a good VPS provider is linked below for you.

Main Functionality:

  • Fully automated trading of RSI based mean reversion strategy.
  • Fully automated trading of ADR based mean reversion strategy.
  • Settings to fine tune each of the above strategies based on your requirements.
  • Simple, configurable entry condition using any moving average to trigger trades when strength is detected in the direction the strategy will trade.
  • Manual trade buttons to take initial entries or place manual additional trades in any existing position.
    (Use these to trade any strategy and let the EA automatically turn trades that don’t work into position trades).
  • Perform automatic drawdown control (scaling out of losing trades) as they hit specific percentages in drawdown on your account.
  • Perform aggressive drawdown control (full size trades with stop losses) when your total position hits a specific percentage of your account in drawdown.
  • Total control over the minimum distances between trades in each position and the lot size increment (if required) for additional trades.
  • Risk auto calculated based on percent of your account size or a fixed lot size.
  • Individual exit targets based on a percentage of your account for individual trades, positions in a single direction and all trades open on each instrument traded.
  • Trade time filter to ensure no trades are taken during swaps where high spreads occur.
  • Can trade on any timeframe using the RSI mean reversion strategy (M5 timeframe recommended for ADR strategy)

EA Functionality & Logic:

The EA monitors the market for extended conditions on RSI or ADR depending on the strategy you are trading and will then, once the conditions for a trade are met, monitor the timeframe it is running on for an entry into the market. The entries are all taken using a moving average on the timeframe the EA is running on. e.g. if you run the EA on the M5 timeframe it will take a trade when the price closes above or below the MA you set in the inputs on that timeframe. The moving average entry logic is that price needs to open above the moving average and close below it to take a short entry and the opposite for longs. The EA monitors the last candle closed. When a trade is placed the EA will then auto calculate a level above shorts or below longs based on average daily range and get ready to add additional trades if price exceeds this level. The lot size of the next trade is also auto calculated by the EA, this level and the lot size are determined by the inputs you select. The EA automatically monitors the current profit and drawdown of each trade and the total position (all trades in the same direction) and will automatically close either complete trades or partial size based on the inputs for drawdown control and profit targets.

 

Recommended Setup For The EA:

The strategies for the EA was developed on forex markets as they have a very rhythmic movement and market structure is often clearly defined so you should be able to run the EA on any forex pair, but any other instrument will also work so test! 

As with all EAs it is advisable to have the EA running on a machine that is left on 24/7, so the EA can work constantly and monitor the market for you. It is recommended to run the EA on the M5 timeframe for the ADR strategy and if you are trading using RSI it is advisable to also use M5 or M15, assuming you are monitoring RSI levels on the H1 and H4 timeframes. The EA enters the market using a moving average as the entry signal, and that is on the timeframe it is running on. Bear in mind, if you set the EA to manual mode where it uses the trading buttons only, it will still manage any entries you take with the buttons on the version of the EA running on your VPS/trading PC. Run each strategy you trade on a separate terminal and separate trading account, so the EA doesn’t get confused with multiple entries using multiple strategies on the same account/terminal. This is best practice for all trading.

My setup: I have multiple terminals running on my own VPS, each terminal is logged into a different trading account and each account is only running one strategy. This way I know exactly what is and is not working at any time. Each terminal has every chart I want to trade one (all FX pairs in my case) and the EA is set on each chart on the M5 timeframe and will auto enter for me based on RSI or ADR depending on which account it is.
On my trading PC that I use for analysis in my office I also have the EA running on a chart but set to “button trading only” mode. This means I can manually add trades into a position and then the EA running on that chart on my VPS will take over, adjust the next entry level and lot size for me.

Stock Index Hedge EA

Take advantage of the opening volatility of the major stock indexes and profit from the sudden moves created at those times when the market breaks away at the opening bell. The strategies’ goal is to simply benefit from those days when the market moves fast and hard in one direction at the open and bank that move.
