Antipode is a grid-based expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that is built around a single instrument, AUDCAD. It opens a first position when its entry filters allow, adds further positions at set distances if price moves against the basket, and closes the whole basket when a shared profit target is reached.
The expert advisor looks for entry conditions using its own signal logic and avoids opening trades during periods it classes as unfavorable, including extreme volatility. Once a basket is open, additional grid orders are placed at spacing tuned for AUDCAD, and each step uses a lot multiplier of 1.3 times the previous one. The profit target is calculated after swap and commission, so the exit reflects net rather than gross results.
All exit modes aim at the same profit target. Switching between them changes only how the basket is closed.
Use Antipode on AUDCAD only. The chart timeframe is not important because the expert advisor applies the timeframe built into its code. Because grids are sensitive to trading costs, a low-spread account is preferred, and the author advises against use when the AUDCAD spread is above about 20 points. Compare this with your own broker's conditions.
Exact defaults can differ between builds, so confirm each value in the input window and in the user manual before going live.
| Area | What you can configure |
|---|---|
| Exit mode | Virtual trailing stop, broker trailing stop or fixed take profit |
| Profit target | One shared target for all exit modes; zero uses the built-in default |
| Lot sizing | Auto-Risk with eight levels, fixed lots, or balance-proportional |
| Breakeven | Buys, sells, both or disabled |
| Drawdown protection | Percentage or currency limit, with an alert, close and continue, or close and stop response |
| Cooldown | Pauses to reduce overtrading |
| Control panel | On or off, with optional scale and font controls |
The on-chart dashboard shows live and closed profit, balance, equity, a summary of the configuration, grid depth, the next grid level and the current exit price. It includes a button that closes the expert advisor's trades. The panel can be turned off completely, which helps speed up backtests.
Grid strategies add to losing positions, so exposure rises as the grid deepens. Position limits, drawdown limits and sensible lot sizing matter more than any single entry. Start with a conservative risk level and test on a demo account.
Trading carries risk and you can lose part or all of your deposit. Past results, including backtests and live signals, do not predict future ones.
If you plan to run it continuously, use a VPS and check the chosen exit mode matches how you want protection handled when the connection drops.

No reviews yet. Customers who own Antipode can review it here.
Antipode is designed specifically for AUDCAD, so attach it to an AUDCAD chart only. Its grid spacing and filters are calibrated to that pair's behavior, and using it elsewhere is outside its intended design. Check that your broker's symbol name matches, as some brokers add a suffix.
No. The expert advisor applies the timeframe logic written into its own code, so the timeframe of the chart you attach it to is not a key setting. Any timeframe can be used.
A low-spread account type, often called raw or ECN-style, is preferable because grid systems are sensitive to spread and commission. If the AUDCAD spread on your account regularly exceeds roughly 20 points, the author advises against using the expert advisor. Check your broker's typical spreads before buying.
The author suggests a small minimum and a larger recommended balance, but the right amount depends on your lot sizing method, the number of grid levels you allow and how much drawdown you can accept. Review the current guidance on the product page and the user manual, and test on a demo account first.
Yes. It is built to be VPS compatible and can rebuild its grid state after a restart, including reconciling existing orders with the chosen exit mode. If you want protection that does not depend on your terminal staying connected, use the broker-side trailing stop or fixed take profit exit mode.
No. Antipode is an MT5 expert advisor and will not run on MetaTrader 4.
