Anniversary is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 4 that looks for sharp, short-lived price movements at tick level and places orders when those movements pass a set of volatility and cost filters. It runs without manual input once attached to a chart.
Instead of waiting for a moving average cross or an oscillator level, the expert watches how fast price is moving. When volatility is high enough compared with a reference level that you choose, it can place a pending order and then manage the trade with a stop loss, a take profit and an optional trailing stop. Pending orders have a limited lifetime, so an order that is not triggered soon after the spike is removed.
Because this kind of method is sensitive to trading costs, the expert includes inputs for the maximum allowed spread and for account commission. If you test with a certain spread and set MaxSpread to match, the expert will skip entries when the live spread is wider. This usually means fewer trades live than in a test that used an unrealistically low spread. If your account charges commission, convert it into pips and enter it so that it is treated as an addition to the spread.
The expert is described as usable on any currency pair and on different chart periods, including hourly charts, and with different brokers. In practice, liquid forex pairs with a low spread are the more sensible choice, because high costs eat into short-term moves. Run your own tests on each symbol before using it live.
The inputs below are the ones documented for the product. Default values and sensible ranges depend on your broker, so check the values loaded in the expert properties and test them yourself.
| Input | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Magic | Magic number that identifies the expert's orders |
| Risk | Calculates lot size from the account balance |
| Lot | Fixed lot size; takes priority over Risk when set |
| MaxSpread | Highest spread at which a new position may be opened |
| TakeProfit | Take profit distance in pips |
| StopLoss | Stop loss distance in pips |
| TrailingStart | Profit in pips after which the trailing stop begins |
| Commission | Commission expressed in pips, for commission accounts |
| Slippage | Maximum accepted slippage |
| VolatilityMultiplier | Sets how active price must be before an order is placed |
| VolatilityPercentageLimit | Minimum ratio, in percent, of real volatility to the multiplier level |
| OrderExpireSeconds | Lifetime of a pending order; check the unit shown in the input description |
If your broker has noticeable delays, the vendor advises using wider stop loss, take profit and trailing values so the server can process them at the intended price, which also lowers trading frequency.
Trading carries risk, and you can lose some or all of your deposit. Past results, including tester results, do not predict future ones. Test on a demo account first and only trade with money you can afford to lose.
For continuous operation, a VPS with a stable connection is usually preferable to a home computer.

No. This listing is an MT4 expert advisor and it will only load in MetaTrader 4. If you use MetaTrader 5, you need an MT5 product instead.
In MT4 choose File, then Open Data Folder, and open MQL4 and then Experts. Copy the expert file there, restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator, and drag the expert onto a chart. Make sure the AutoTrading button is on and that live trading is allowed in the expert properties.
The description says it can run on different brokers, but a low spread, low commission and fast execution matter for a tick-based method. A floating-spread account is advised. Check your broker's typical spread, stop level and execution speed before running it live.
There is no fixed requirement that we can confirm. The vendor mentions that small deposits and a 0.01 lot can be used for cautious testing. Check the minimum lot and margin rules of your own broker and test on a demo account first.
The tester often uses a fixed or modelled spread, while live spreads move. Setting MaxSpread and Commission to match the conditions you tested helps, but delays, slippage and fewer qualifying entries can still cause differences.
The vendor states that one set of inputs can be used across pairs and history. Even so, you should test the inputs on every symbol and broker you plan to trade, because spreads and volatility differ.
