My MACD Grid Bot is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that combines a simple momentum signal with a grid of follow-up orders. It opens the first trade when the MACD lines cross and then manages additional positions according to grid rules you define.
The EA watches the MACD indicator. When the MACD line crosses the signal line upward it looks to open a buy, and when it crosses downward it looks to open a sell. The indicator periods are inputs, so you can change how quickly or slowly the signal reacts.
If price moves against the first position, the EA can add further trades at a fixed distance from the previous one. The distance, the number of levels and the way lot size grows from level to level are all set in the inputs. Each position carries a take profit, and you can also define a stop loss and other risk limits.
The EA is not locked to one symbol or timeframe. It can be attached to any instrument available in your MT5 terminal. Trending markets with occasional pullbacks are the setting a MACD-plus-grid approach is usually aimed at, but results depend heavily on the symbol, the settings and current market conditions. Run your own tests on the instrument and timeframe you intend to use.
Exact input names and defaults can differ, so check the Inputs tab after attaching the EA. The main groups are:
| Group | What it controls |
|---|---|
| MACD | Fast, slow and signal periods used for crossovers |
| Lot size | Starting volume and how it progresses across grid levels |
| Grid | Distance between orders and the maximum number of levels |
| Exit | Take profit and stop loss |
| Filters | Maximum spread and slippage |
| Identification | Magic number |
Enter your parameters in the Strategy Tester Inputs tab before you test or optimise, so the results reflect the values you actually plan to use.
Grid trading can leave several positions open at the same time, and exposure grows as more levels are added. Lot progression can raise it further. Choose lot sizes, grid spacing, level limits and a stop loss that fit your account balance, and confirm margin requirements with your broker.
Trading carries risk, and past results, including backtests, do not predict future ones. You are responsible for your own risk management. Test on a demo account first.
For continuous operation, many traders use a VPS so the terminal stays online.

No. This product is built for MetaTrader 5 only. It will not load on MT4, so check that your broker offers an MT5 account before buying.
The EA can be attached to any symbol and timeframe that MT5 supports, but that does not mean every combination suits it. Grid behaviour differs a lot between instruments and volatility levels, so test the symbol and timeframe you plan to trade in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account first.
Copy the EA file into the Experts folder via File, Open Data Folder, MQL5, Experts in MT5. Refresh the Navigator or restart the terminal, drag the EA onto a chart, and enable Algo Trading. Set your inputs before running it live.
Yes. Enter the parameters you want in the Inputs tab of the Strategy Tester before testing or optimising, rather than relying on defaults that may not suit your symbol, account size or broker.
No fixed figure is given here. Because a grid can hold several positions at once, the account balance and lot sizes you need depend on your grid step, number of levels and the symbol. Work this out in testing and keep a safety margin.
Yes. It uses a magic number to identify its own trades, so give it a unique value that no other EA or manual process uses on the same account.
