Overview

Chris XAU London NY Tick Stack Bot employs a multi-timeframe filtering system using EMAs and ADX to identify momentum, alongside tick-level price analysis for entry. The bot executes a stacking strategy, allowing multiple positions to be opened in one direction. Risk controls include a dedicated equity floor, trade duration limits, and a cooldown period after losses. Exit logic is managed through USD-denominated trailing stops, profit locks, and a take-profit target based on risk ratios.
