Akihiko is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that opens and closes positions automatically from a set of built-in rules. It is aimed at traders who want an automated system without a long list of inputs to configure.
The robot combines several technical indicators with price action analysis at different levels to decide when to enter long or short trades. It also has its own exit logic, so each position is closed by the robot's rules rather than by manual action. Most of this logic is internal, which is why only a few inputs are exposed to the user.
The listing describes it as a blend of several approaches meant to cope with changing market conditions. How well that works on a given symbol will vary, so you should check it yourself rather than assume it.
No single symbol or timeframe is prescribed. The sensible approach is to test it widely and then narrow down.
The exact list of inputs is shown in the robot's input window once you attach it to a chart, so review each one there. The table below covers what to check.
| Setting area | What to check |
|---|---|
| Magic number | Use a different value for each symbol or chart so trades from separate instances do not conflict. |
| Position size | Confirm how lot size is set and whether it suits your balance and your broker's margin rules. |
| Other inputs | Read the description of each input in the terminal and keep the defaults until you have tested them. |
Akihiko needs a hedging account. Ask your broker which mode your account uses if you are unsure. As with any robot, the terminal must stay connected and algo trading must be switched on, so many users run it on a VPS.
Trading carries risk, and you can lose some or all of your capital. Backtest results and past performance do not predict future results. Test Akihiko on a demo account first and only trade amounts you can afford to lose.

No. It is built for MetaTrader 5 and will not run on MT4. You need an MT5 terminal and an account that supports hedging.
A hedging account. On a netting account the robot may not behave as intended, so confirm your account mode with your broker before you load it.
There is no fixed answer. Run the Strategy Tester with default settings on several symbols and timeframes, compare how stable the results are, and then confirm the choice on a demo account. Test results do not predict future performance.
Attach it to one chart per symbol and give each instance its own magic number in the inputs. This stops the instances from mixing up each other's trades.
Copy the file into the Experts folder via File, Open Data Folder, MQL5, Experts in MT5, then restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator. Drag the robot onto a chart and make sure algo trading is enabled.
No specific figure is given, so check the lot size and margin requirements on your own account in the Strategy Tester and on a demo before you go live.
