BF Scalper EA from FXautomater

BF Scalper EA is One of The Most Successful Expert Advisors

The logic is very simple but effective - the EA uses breakouts of the Bollinger Bands for entry and exit signals. By our opinion the Bollinger Bands is the best technical indicator ever created - Thank you Mr. John Bollinger! During the years we've tried many other indicators and strategies but the Bollinger Bands has proven itself as the best indicator for scalping the market volatility.

Reasonable stop loss levels varies between 20 and 60 pips. You can use small fixed TP between 4-8 pips, or leave the exit logic to take care of the position.

The exit logic is also based on the BB indicator and it will close the trade even on a loss when the price is near or breaks the opposite BB line. This is commanded by the "BandBreakExit" parameter which works best from minus one to plus one-two.

The EA has high spread protection - this is crucial, because if you use limit orders as example you can't control this and you will take some trades with 10 or even 20 pips spread - one such trade will erase the average profit from 10 good trade as the best average expectancy of this type of trading is 2-3 pips in the best case. This is why we are not using limit orders.

Here are some optimization advises:

Do not use genetic algorithm
Optimize 2 parameters at once at most - We optimize only one at a time and look for the most logical value
Optimize for at least 6 months and at least 200 trades - this is the absolute minimum to avoid curve fitting and get some reasonable parameters which will have at least some chance to be profitable in real conditions.
Perform at most 5 optimization cycles for all parameters.
Use reasonable large optimization step - as example if you optimize stop loss, reasonable step would be 5 pips not 1 pips - about 5% of the reasonable optimization range of the parameter.
We are using M1 open price test for all of our EAs - it is good enough.
We are not using tick tests as they are too unreliable.

And now the fun part: By using this EA, you acknowledge that you are familiar with all risks and that you are solely responsible for the outcomes of your decisions. We accept no liability whatsoever for any direct or consequential loss arising from the use of this product. It's to be noted carefully in this respect, that past results are not necessarily indicative of future performance.

How to back-test BF Scalper EA

BF Scalper EA Settings

Here are the BF Scalper EA parameters

Magic - it is extremely important to keep this different for all robots
EA_Comment - The text which will be set as trade comment.
MaxSpread - maximum allowed spread
Slippage - maximum allowed slippage
TicksTrade - if it is "false" the logic will be executed at the beginning of M1 bar, otherwise it will calculate and trade on a new price tick. The TicksTrade is potentially more profitable, but I prefer to use M1 open for testing and optimizations as this is the only reliable method for EA testing and tuning.
StealthMode true/false - a mode which conceals stoploss and takeprofit levels in program logic, making them invisible to brokers. If you use this mode, the stoploss and takeprofit orders are not located in the trading server. In this case, if your trading terminal is not connected, or the robot is not working, your orders would not be protected. However, we are strongly encouraging using the StealthMode, because in some cases the visible StopLoss levels could be attacked tendentiously by algorithms that some unethical brokers could use.
EmergencyStopDist - this parameter ensures a second level of protection, when StealthMode is used. At values greater than zero it activates a second level of true (Emergency) StopLoss on a greater distance then the virtual hidden StopLoss is located. In such case the value of the new emergency StopLoss will be the sum of the EmergencyStopDist value plus the value of the hidden StopLoss.
MinEquity - minimal equity need for trading
StopLoss - stop loss value in standard 4 digit pips
TakeProfit - take profit value in standard 4 digit pips
MarketExitProfit -
BandPeriod - the period of the Bollinger Bands indicator/li>
BandBreakEntry - breakout in 4 digit pips of the BB line to initiate an opposite trade (the value could be negative)
BandBreakExit - breakout in 4 digit pips of the opposite BB line to initiate closing of the existing trade (the value could be negative)
UseTrendFilter - change this to "true" if you want to trade only in the direction of the trend defined by the two MAs below. If you use the trend filter for Asian session scalping you will get higher profit factor, but less trades. Generally, you do not need trend filter for Asian session scalping, but if you want extra safety it will help.
MA_Fast_Period - period of the fast moving average
MA_Slow_Period - period of the slow moving average
MA_Trend_TF - timeframe of both MAs
TimeRestriction - by default this is "true" so the EA will trade only in the hours listed below. If you do not want to use the time filtration, change this parameter to "false".

CTHour1 - 6 - six possible slots for trading hours. Values 0 - 23 activate the slot. Enter a large value like 55 to deactivate the slot. Best results from our experience are achieved 21 and 22 GMT. You absolutely must adapt this hours to your brokers GMT shift. I am using Alpari data for all our tests, because they have the best long-term real history data in the data center. So for Alpari the trading hours are 23 and 0 as the GMT shift is +2 for Alpari.
FridayFilter true/false -
FridayEndHour -
WednesdaySwapFilter - true/false - The Wednesday swap filter cancels all trades in Wednesday evening in the direction of the negative swap, if the swap is worse than MaxNegSwapPips parameter.
MaxNegSwapPips - minus 0.5 pips seems reasonable threshold
RolloverTimeFilter true/false - switches on/off the rollover time filter
MinutesBefore - minute time interval before midnight in which all trading operations will be canceled
MinutesAfter - minute time interval after midnight in which all trading operations will be canceled
x_MaxSpreadFilter - switches on/off the rollover additional spread filter
x_MaxSpread - multiplies the initial MaxSpread, which will be allowed in general, before canceling all trading operations. As example if the MaxSpread is 6 and x_MaxSpread is 2, all trading operations will be canceled if the spread exceeds 6x2=12 pips.
RecoveryMode - this parameter activates the drawdown recovery. Works when AutoMM>0
FixedLots - fixed trading lots when AutoMM=0
AutoMM - value greater than zero activates proportional money management, as example AutoMM=5 means 0.05 lots at 1000 account.
AutoMM_Max - maximum allowed value of the proportional money management when RecoveryMode is used.
MMTrades - number of history trades on base of which the drawdown of the RecoveryMode function is calculated
RecoveryFactor - drawdown positive compensation in percent of the drawdown
RecoveryMultiplier - trading volume multiplier in RecoveryMode
LossPausePips - pause after loss algorithm - loss in pips
LossPauseHours - pause after loss algorithm - pause in hours after loss greater than LossPausePips
