Trend Catcher is a fully automated expert advisor for MetaTrader 5. It tries to identify the prevailing direction of the market, waits for a pullback, and then opens trades in the direction of the trend. Positions are managed with a grid and a martingale-style lot progression, so the settings you choose have a large effect on risk.
The EA builds its trend view from adaptive, customised indicators based on moving averages, RSI and volatility filters. The aim is to ignore short-term noise and look at momentum, volatility expansion and price structure instead. It does not react to every tick. It waits until a trend appears to be developing, then looks for a controlled retracement towards a dynamic equilibrium zone and enters in the trend direction.
If price moves against a position, the EA can open additional orders. The spacing between orders can be fixed or dynamic, and a distance multiplier can widen the gaps as the series grows. A lot multiplier controls how much larger each following order is. An optional overlap function lets the first and last orders of a series be closed together to reduce drawdown once a chosen order number is reached.
The product is described as suitable for XAUUSD and major currency pairs such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDCAD, AUDUSD, AUDCAD, NZDCAD and NZDUSD. It is meant for M15 or higher, and H1 is suggested when you want more selective entries. Spreads, swaps and contract specifications differ between brokers, so test each symbol on your own account type.
The inputs fall into general, strategy, distance and panel groups. Exact defaults can differ, so check them in the input window after loading the EA.
| Group | Parameter | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| General | Open new series, Trade Buy, Trade Sell | Allow new series and choose the trade directions |
| General | Manage manual orders, Use Hedge | Let the EA handle manual orders; allow hedging |
| General | Max spread, Start Hour, End Hour | Filter by spread and trading hours |
| General | Magic, Order Comment | Identify the EA's orders |
| Strategy | Max buy orders, Max sell orders | Cap the size of each series |
| Strategy | Initial lot, Autolot, Lot Multiplier, Max Lot | Position sizing and lot growth |
| Strategy | TP, SL and Trail modes | Virtual (hidden) or real levels, in points |
| Strategy | Overlap Last order, Pause between orders | Drawdown reduction and timing between orders |
| Distance | Fix distance, Dynamic distance start, Distance multiplier | Spacing between grid orders |
Trading carries risk, and past results do not predict future ones. Grid and martingale methods can build large positions during a prolonged trend against the series, and a stop out can remove a large part of the account. Use a demo account first, limit the maximum orders and lot size, and only risk money you can afford to lose.
For continuous operation, many users run the EA on a VPS so that the terminal stays connected and open series are managed without interruption.

No. This version is built for MetaTrader 5 only. It will not load in MetaTrader 4, so check that your broker offers an MT5 account before buying.
Yes. When price moves against an open position, the EA can add further orders at set distances and can increase the lot size with a multiplier. This can recover losses in some conditions, but it also raises exposure quickly. Review the order limits, multiplier and maximum lot before trading live.
The description points to gold (XAUUSD) and major forex pairs, on M15 or higher, with H1 giving fewer and more selective signals. Test your own broker's symbol, spreads and swap conditions in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before using real funds.
Copy the expert file into the MQL5/Experts folder via File > Open Data Folder in MetaTrader 5, restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator, then drag the EA onto a chart. Make sure Algo Trading is switched on and automated trading is allowed in the Options menu.
No fixed figure is given here. The needed balance depends on the initial lot, lot multiplier, grid distance, maximum orders and the symbol. Test with your own settings and keep enough margin to carry a full series of orders.
There is a setting called Manage manual orders. When it is on, the EA takes control of orders you place manually. Leave it off if you want your own trades to remain separate.
