The Zen Flow EA is an automated trend-following expert advisor for MetaTrader 4. It runs two separate strategy modules on the same chart, and each has its own lot size, targets, trailing switch and optional hedge. Around those modules sit filters for volatility, trading hours and trade direction.
The EA follows price movement as it develops rather than trying to forecast turning points. Module A is the faster of the two and module B is slower and more selective. Each module manages its own positions, so the two can be tuned independently. The internal thresholds that decide when a module is ready to enter are fixed in the code and cannot be changed from the inputs. What you control is risk, exits and filtering.
Each module has an optional hedge. If a main trade goes against the EA, a position in the opposite direction can be opened with a lot size multiplied by a set factor. There are separate take-profit and stop-loss values for the hedge, and you can choose whether the original trade is closed when the hedge triggers. A larger hedge lot means more exposure, so treat this as an active risk decision and not as protection.
Trailing can be enabled or disabled for each module. With trailing on, the stop follows the trade as it moves in your favour.
The default inputs were optimised on GBPUSD using the M15 timeframe. That is a starting point, not proof that the settings suit every pair. If you use another symbol or timeframe, test the pip-based inputs again, since the typical range and spread differ between instruments.
The main input groups are listed below. The default values come from the product and may be changed.
| Group | What it controls | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Module A risk | Lot, take-profit and stop-loss in pips | 0.02 / 45 / 55 |
| Module B risk | Lot, take-profit and stop-loss in pips | 0.02 / 35 / 80 |
| Hedge A | Lot multiplier, take-profit, stop-loss | 2.0 / 90 / 110 |
| Hedge B | Lot multiplier, take-profit, stop-loss | 2.2 / 130 / 110 |
| General | MagicNumber and maximum slippage in points | 202509 / 10 |
| Time filter | Start and end time in server time | Off by default |
| Directional blackout | Hours when long or short entries are blocked | On by default |
| Volatility filter | ATR(14) minimum and maximum in pips | 1 / 50 |
The EA reads ATR with a period of 14 and skips new trades when the value is below the minimum or above the maximum. This keeps it out of very quiet and very fast conditions.
Trading carries risk, and past results, including any optimisation, do not predict future ones. Hedge positions with larger lots can increase losses. Test on a demo account first and use position sizes that suit your own balance.
Check the default lot size against your account balance and your broker's contract specifications. Spreads, slippage and server time settings vary by broker and will change how the EA behaves.
Give each chart a different MagicNumber if you run the EA more than once. A VPS is advisable if you want it to run without interruption.

No. This is an MT4 expert advisor and will not load in MetaTrader 5. Buy the MT5 build of a product if you use that platform.
Open MT4, choose File > Open Data Folder, copy the expert file into MQL4/Experts, then restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator. Drag the EA onto a chart and make sure automated trading is enabled in the toolbar and in the EA properties.
The default inputs were tuned on GBPUSD M15. Other symbols and timeframes may behave differently, so test them in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account, and adjust the pip-based inputs to suit the instrument.
When a main trade moves against the EA, an optional hedge position can open in the opposite direction with a larger lot size, set by a multiplier. This raises exposure and is not a safety feature. You can turn it off for each module, and you should understand it fully before trading live.
Yes, but give each chart a different MagicNumber so the EA can tell its own trades apart. Also check that combined exposure across charts fits your account.
No fixed minimum is stated here. Check the lot sizes against your balance and your broker's contract specifications. Spread, execution speed and the broker's server time all affect results, so test on a demo account with your broker first.
