Overview

The primary strategy, named Belinda, executes trades based on moving average crossovers using a 10-period and 40-period SMA, filtered by volatility via the Average True Range indicator. The collection features several other scripts, including one-minute scalpers and simple trend-following tools. Risk management is generally handled through fixed lot sizes, hard stop losses, and trailing stops. The repository serves as a learning resource for developing basic automated trading logic on the MT4 platform.
