Moving Average Hedging EA: Free MT5 Expert Advisor

Overview

Moving Average Hedging EA initiates buy orders when a candle closes above the moving average and sell orders when it closes below. Risk management is handled through several configurable parameters, including fixed take profit, break-even logic, and trailing stops. Users can choose between a fixed-point stop loss or a dynamic stop loss based on the distance from the moving average. The repository provides versions compatible with both hedging and netting account types.
