Overview

MATE Apex Scalper employs a multi-symbol confluence strategy, filtering entries based on triple exponential moving average alignment, RSI levels, and Bollinger Band rejections on the M5 and M15 timeframes. The robot manages trades using ATR-based exit targets, partial take profits, and smart exit logic for stagnant positions. Risk controls include a daily profit lock, news and holiday filters, and session-specific trading windows. It supports simultaneous monitoring of multiple symbols from a single chart.
