πŸ”₯ VERSION 8.6 (17/02/2026)

Add 4 new price channel filters - Pivot Fractal, BB Channel, Keltner Channel & Donchian Channel!

  • βœ… Pivot Fractal Filter: Identify Sideway zone by local peaks/troughs (fractal). Price in Pivot zone = Sideway, breaks out = Trending
  • βœ… BB Channel Filter: Identify Sideway zone by Bollinger Bands. Price in BB = Sideway, breaks out = Trending
  • βœ… Keltner Channel Filter: Price channel based on EMA + ATR. Reflects actual volatility, follows price action closely
  • βœ… Donchian Channel Filter: Price channel Highest High / Lowest Low. Simplest of price channels, very effective for identifying breakouts
  • βœ… Buffer % against fake breakouts: All price channel filters have buffer zone to avoid false signals
  • βœ… Separate timeframe: Each filter can choose separate timeframe
  • βœ… Total 18 filters: Increase from 14 to 18 filters, work with Combine Mode and Action Mode systems

πŸ†• Filter 15: Pivot Fractal β€” Identify Sideway by Pivot High/Low

Pivot Fractal uses fractal method to find local peaks (Pivot High) and troughs (Pivot Low), then identify reasonable price range.

How it works

StepDescription
1. Find Pivot Scan candles, find candle with High higher than N candles left + N candles right = Pivot High. Similarly for Pivot Low
2. Identify zone Sideway zone = Pivot Low ↔ Pivot High + Buffer %
3. Compare price Price in zone β†’ Sideway (for DCA). Price breaks out β†’ Trending (block DCA)

Parameter

ParameterDefaultDescription
Enable/DisablefalseEnable Pivot Fractal filter
Left Bars5Number of candles left to confirm Pivot
Right Bars5Number of candles right to confirm Pivot
Buffer %5Buffer zone 5% of Pivot range. Avoid false signals
TimeframeCurrentTimeframe for calculating Pivot
πŸ’‘ Example (XAUUSD, M5): Left/Right = 5, Buffer = 5%
EA finds: Pivot High = 2935, Pivot Low = 2920 β†’ Range = 15, Buffer = 0.75
β†’ Breakout High = 2935.75, Breakout Low = 2919.25
Price = 2928 β†’ Sideway βœ… | Price = 2936 β†’ Trending ❌

πŸ†• Filter 16: Bollinger Bands Channel β€” Identify Sideway by BB

BB Channel uses Bollinger Bands (Upper/Middle/Lower) to identify auto-scaling price channel based on market volatility.

How it works

StepDescription
1. Calculate BB Upper = SMA + Deviation Γ— Οƒ, Lower = SMA βˆ’ Deviation Γ— Οƒ (from closed candles)
2. Add Buffer Buffer = Bandwidth Γ— Buffer%. Expand breakout zone with 1 buffer layer
3. Compare price Price trong BB + Buffer β†’ Sideway (for DCA). Price breaks out β†’ Trending (block DCA)

Parameter

πŸ’‘ Example (XAUUSD, M5): Period = 20, Dev = 2.0, Buffer = 5%
BB: Upper = 2938, Middle = 2930, Lower = 2922 β†’ Bandwidth = 16, Buffer = 0.8
β†’ Breakout Upper = 2938.8, Breakout Lower = 2921.2
Price = 2929 β†’ Sideway βœ… | Price = 2939 β†’ Trending ❌

πŸ†• Filter 17: Keltner Channel β€” Price Channel EMA + ATR

Keltner Channel uses EMA + ATR to create price channel. Reflects actual volatility better than BB because uses ATR (Average True Range) instead of standard deviation.

How it works

StepDescription
1. Calculate KC Middle = EMA(Period), Upper = EMA + ATR Γ— Multiplier, Lower = EMA βˆ’ ATR Γ— Multiplier (from closed candles, shift +1)
2. Add Buffer Buffer = (Upper βˆ’ Lower) Γ— Buffer%. Expand breakout zone with 1 buffer layer
3. Compare price Price trong KC + Buffer β†’ Sideway (for DCA). Price breaks out β†’ Trending (block DCA)

Parameter

πŸ’‘ Example (XAUUSD, M5): EMA=20, ATR=10, Mult=1.5, Buffer=5%
KC: Upper = 2940, Middle = 2930, Lower = 2920 β†’ Bandwidth = 20, Buffer = 1.0
β†’ Breakout Upper = 2941, Breakout Lower = 2919
Price = 2932 β†’ Sideway βœ… | Price = 2942 β†’ Trending ❌

πŸ†• Filter 18: Donchian Channel β€” Price Channel Highest High / Lowest Low

Donchian Channel uses Highest High and Lowest Low in last N candles to create price channel. Simplest of price channels, very effective for identifying breakouts.

How it works

StepDescription
1. Calculate DC Upper = Highest High(N), Lower = Lowest Low(N), Middle = (Upper + Lower) / 2 (from closed candles, shift +1)
2. Add Buffer Buffer = (Upper βˆ’ Lower) Γ— Buffer%. Expand breakout zone
3. Compare price Price trong DC + Buffer β†’ Sideway (for DCA). Price breaks out β†’ Trending (block DCA)

Upgrade Custom Step, Custom Lot, Custom TP - Support powerful multi-mode!

  • βœ… Custom Step multi-mode: Support Fixed, Multiply (x), Add (+) combined in 1 step chain β€” like Custom Lot
  • βœ… Custom Lot multi-mode: Support multi-mode in 1 chain - Fixed, Multiply (x), Add (+) combined by level
  • βœ… Custom TP support negative numbers: TP can be negative (accept loss) using symbol (), Custom TP by level tier
  • βœ… Combined Profit Close: Close both BUY + SELL chains when total profit reaches target (USD). Leave empty=off, enter 0 = close both chains when total = 0
  • βœ… Lot L0=L1: Multiply/Add lot mode now keeps L0 = L1, multiply/add starts from L2 (Custom: keeps per declaration)
  • βœ… Step semantics: step(N) = distance from layer N to layer N+1, ensure correct for all modes
  • βœ… Input Validation: Check Step/Lot string syntax when launching EA. Alert specific error + prevent EA running if wrong

πŸ†• Custom Step - Multi-Mode Distance

Step (distance between levels) now supports 4 modes, of which Custom supports combining Fixed, Multiplier, Addition:

Step ModeDescriptionCalculation Method
Fixed Fixed step for all layers Example 10 = fixed 10 for all layers
Multiplier Step increases by multiplier coefficient from L2 L0=L1=start_step, L2+=start_step Γ— coefficient^(layer-1)
Example: Step=10, Coefficient=1.2 β†’ 10, 10, 12, 14.4...
Addition Step increases evenly each layer from L2 L0=L1=start_step, L2+=start_step + (layer-1) Γ— increment
Example: Step=10, Coefficient=2 β†’ 10, 10, 12, 14...
Custom Custom multi-mode per layer Supports Fixed, Multiplier (x), Add (+) combined in 1 string

Custom Step Symbols

SymbolModeMeaningExample
10 Fixed Fixed step 10 β†’ all layers = 10
x1.5 Multiplier (Multiplier) Step = previous step Γ— coefficient 2:x1.5 β†’ from L2: multiply previous step Γ— 1.5
+5 Addition (Addition) Step = previous step + addition value 4:+5 β†’ from L4: add 5
10x1.3 Base + Multiplier Initial step + multiply from L1 10x1.3 β†’ L0=10, L1=13, L2=16.9...

Custom Step Multi-Mode Example

Format: "0.6-1:1-2:x2-3:x3-4:+1-5:4" step(N) = distance from layer N to layer N+1 Result: BUY entry price (from 2900.00): L0 β†’ L1: step = 0.6 L0: 2900.00 L1 β†’ L2: step = 1.0 L1: 2899.40 (distance from L0: 0.6) L2 β†’ L3: step = 2.0 L2: 2898.40 (distance from L1: 1.0) L3 β†’ L4: step = 6.0 L3: 2896.40 (1.0 Γ— 2 = 2.0) L4 β†’ L5: step = 7.0 L4: 2890.40 (2.0 Γ— 3 = 6.0) L5+: step = 4.0 L5: 2883.40 (6.0 + 1 = 7.0) L6: 2879.40 (fixed 4.0)
πŸ’‘ Note: step(N) = distance from layer N to layer N+1. Step is calculated sequentially β€” when switching mode, the previous step is the basis for the new mode.

πŸ†• Custom Lot - Multi-Mode in 1 String

Custom Lot now supports combining multiple modes (Fixed, Multiplier, Addition) in the same 1 lot string, applied per layer range.

Symbols

SymbolModeMeaningExample
0.01 Fixed Fixed lot 0.01 β†’ all layers = 0.01
x1.5 Multiplier (Multiplier) Lot = previous lot Γ— coefficient 3:x1.5 β†’ from L3: multiply previous lot Γ— 1.5
+0.02 Addition (Addition) Lot = previous lot + addition value 5:+0.02 β†’ from L5: add 0.02
0.01x1.5 Base + Multiplier Initial lot + multiply from L1 0.01x1.5 β†’ L0=0.01, L1=0.015, L2=0.0225...
0.01+0.02 Base + Addition Initial lot + addition from L1 0.01+0.02 β†’ L0=0.01, L1=0.03, L2=0.05...

Multi-Mode Combination Example

Format: "0.01-3:x1.2-5:x1.4-9:+0.02" Sequential calculation result: L0 = 0.01 (fixed 0.01) L1 = 0.01 (fixed 0.01) L2 = 0.01 (fixed 0.01) L3 = 0.01 Γ— 1.2 = 0.012 (start multiply Γ—1.2) L4 = 0.012 Γ— 1.2 = 0.0144 L5 = 0.0144 Γ— 1.4 = 0.02016 (switch to multiply Γ—1.4) L6 = 0.02016 Γ— 1.4 = 0.02822 ... L9 = previous + 0.02 (switch to addition +0.02) L10 = L9 + 0.02
πŸ’‘ Note: Lot is calculated sequentially from L0. When switching mode (e.g., from multiply to addition), the previous lot is the basis for the new mode.

πŸ†• Lot L0 = L1 - Multiply/Addition from L2

In Multiplier and Additionmode, layer 0 and layer 1 lot are now equal. Multiply/addition starts from L2:

LayerMultiplier (Γ—1.5)Addition (+0.01)
L00.010.01
L10.01 (unchanged)0.01 (unchanged)
L20.0150.02
L30.02250.03
⚠️ For Custom Lot only: L0=L1 convention does not apply. Lot is processed entirely per declaration string.

πŸ†• Input Validation - Syntax Check

When starting the EA, the system automatically checks syntax of Step/Lot strings. If errors found:

  • 🚫 EA refuse to start
  • ⚠️ Currently Alert popup only specifies which box is wrong + correct example
Example Alert on wrong input: ⚠️ Syntax Error Input! Range 1 - Step: step = 0! Check again: "abc" Correct example: - Step: "10" or "10-5:15-10:20" - Lot: "0.01" or "0.01x1.2" or "0.01x1.5-5:+0.02"
πŸ’‘ Note: Validation runs only in Local Config mode (no check when using Signal Config because server sends pre-checked values).

πŸ†• Custom TP - Support Negative Values & Per Layer

Take Profit now supports negative values (accept loss to exit quickly) and customize per layer.

TP Per Layer Syntax

Format: "0:100-5:50-10:30-15:0-20:(2)" β†’ Layer 0-4: TP = 100 β†’ Layer 5-9: TP = 50 β†’ Layer 10-14: TP = 30 β†’ Layer 15-19: TP = 0 (breakeven) β†’ Layer 20+: TP = -2 (accept loss of 2 to exit)

Negative Value Symbol

SyntaxTP ValueMeaning
10:100TP = 100Normal positive TP
15:0TP = 0Breakeven (break even)
20:(2)TP = -2Accept loss of 2 to exit quickly
25:(5)TP = -5Accept loss of 5 to exit
⚠️ Important: Use parentheses () to denote negative values (because - is already used as layer separator). Example: (2) = -2, (5.5) = -5.5.
πŸ’‘ Application: When DCA chain goes too deep, gradually reduce TP and finally set negative TP to exit quickly, reducing risk instead of waiting for price reversal.

Layer TP Override Feature

Change tp when reaching layer allows you to set new Take Profit level when DCA chain reaches specific layer. This is advanced feature helping adjust TP strategy flexibly per chain depth.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE: TP value is COMPLETELY OVERRIDDEN, not added/subtracted from current TP.

Syntax:

layer1:tp_value1; layer2:tp_value2; ...

Example: 34:1; 38:0.5

  • When chain reaches layer 34, set TP = 1.
  • When chain reaches layer 38, set TP = 0.5.

Application: Help exit orders faster when chain lengthens (by reducing TP) or increase profit when needed.

Hedge Feature (Hedging)

Feature Hedge allows EA to automatically open counter orders or close old orders partially to minimize risk when DCA chain has gone deep.

Settings (Input)

Display name Description
Enable Hedge Turn on/off Hedge feature
Hedge Mode
  • HEDGE: Open counter direction orders (requires margin).
  • CLOSE: Close old orders partially (reduce margin, take loss).
Hedge Calc Mode
  • GAP: Hedge layer X gap from current.
  • START_STOP: Hedge from layer A to layer B.
Auto Close Hedge Automatically close hedge when main chain closes.

Example Illustration (MODE GAP, Gap=10)

Notes When Using Hedge

  1. Margin: HEDGE mode requires more margin because opening counter orders.
  2. Broker: Check if broker supports hedging.
  3. Swap: Hedge orders held overnight also incur swap fees.
