Overview

Metatrade Sandbox uses a combination of moving average crossovers and MACD signals to identify market entries. The EA includes time-based filters allowing users to specify exact opening and closing hours for daily trading sessions. Risk management is managed through user-defined lot sizes, stop losses, and take profit levels. The repository is presented as a sandbox area for experimentation and the documentation is minimal.
