Overview
Strawberry Strategy Tester implements Bollinger Band-based entry logic and offers multiple lot sizing methods, including fixed lots, addition, and multiplication. The use of lot multiplication suggests the expert advisor utilizes martingale scaling to manage positions. Trade management includes fixed take profit levels or percentage-based profit locking. The EA maintains a detailed internal status for tracking total orders, equity, and balance. The README is minimal, and the strategy is primarily defined within the source code's system parameters.
- Bollinger Band entry systems
- Multi-mode lot sizing including multiplication
