Dax EA is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that trades German stock index CFDs. Instead of one entry rule, it packages 23 separate strategies into a single program, so one attached chart can run several independent setups at the same time.
Each of the strategies opens its own trades with a fixed stop loss and aims to keep positions open for a short time. Every strategy carries its own comment and magic number. That makes it possible to see which one opened which trade in the account history and to test them one by one or in groups.
The author says some entries are linked to calendar timing, specifically the expiry cycles of index futures and their effect on the spot market. The exact logic is not published, so treat it as a closed system and judge it by your own testing and a demo period rather than by the description.
Because many strategies can fire in the same session, several positions may be open at once. The EA includes a cap on how many strategies can trade simultaneously. Check in your own tests how multiple positions combine, how much margin they use and how the total exposure looks on a bad day.
Index spreads, slippage and trading hours vary by broker, and scalping-style systems are sensitive to all three. Compare them with the conditions used in any tests you run.
The exact list of inputs depends on the build you download, so open the input tab after attaching the EA and read each field. The areas below are the ones to look at first.
| Area | What to check |
|---|---|
| Lot calculation | The vendor describes a default of a fixed lot per set amount of balance. Raise the balance per lot to reduce risk. |
| Maximum active strategies | Limits how many strategies can trade at once. Lower it for small accounts or strict drawdown rules. |
| Strategy groups | Lets you run only part of the 23 strategies. Useful when the balance is small. |
| Magic numbers and comments | Used to identify trades. Avoid clashes with other EAs on the same account. |
Index prices jump quickly, and a candle-based model with only four prices per bar cannot reproduce what happens inside it. With tight stops this distorts the results. Use real tick data if your broker supplies it, or the every tick model otherwise, and include realistic spreads and commissions.
Stops limit the loss on a single trade, but they can be filled at a worse price during fast moves or gaps, and several strategies can lose in the same session. Start on a demo account and use a lot size that you can afford to lose.
Trading leveraged products carries a high level of risk and you can lose more than you expect. Past results, including backtests and signal histories, do not predict future results. Nothing here is financial advice.

It is designed for German index CFDs. Brokers name them differently, for example DAX, DE30, GER30, DE40, GER40, DAX40, Germany30 or Germany40. Open a chart of the index symbol your broker offers and attach the EA there. Check the contract size, spread and trading hours with your broker first.
The vendor states that any timeframe can be used, since the strategies do not depend on the chart period you select. Whichever you choose, keep it consistent between testing and live use so that your results can be compared.
Use the MT5 Strategy Tester with real ticks if your broker provides tick history, or at least the every tick model. One-minute OHLC modelling is a poor fit for short-term index strategies with tight stops and can give misleading results. Even a careful test does not predict future performance.
The vendor quotes a low minimum balance, but you should verify that against your own broker's contract size, margin and minimum lot. With a small balance it is more sensible to run only some of the strategies at once and to lower the number of simultaneous trades. Test on a demo account first.
Rules differ between prop firms, so read your firm's conditions on EAs, drawdown limits and trade holding times before using it. The lot calculation and the cap on active strategies can be adjusted to reduce exposure, but no setting can make an account comply with rules you have not checked.
Copy the EA file into the Experts folder of your MT5 data directory (File, Open Data Folder, MQL5, Experts), restart MT5 or refresh the Navigator, and drag it onto the index chart. Make sure algorithmic trading is enabled in the terminal toolbar and in the EA properties.
