Trend EA: Free MT5 Expert Advisor

Overview

Trend EA generates entry signals using a combination of the SuperTrend indicator, Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), and ADX filters. The expert advisor features a martingale-style lot multiplier that increases position sizes following losing trades, subject to a user-defined maximum lot limit. It includes built-in risk management via stop loss and take profit orders, plus optional trailing stop functionality and time-restricted trading windows. Spread filtering ensures execution only during favorable market conditions.
