How Automatic Trading Works

Understanding the trading cycle

1

Market Analysis

Bot analyzes H4 and M5 timeframes simultaneously, calculating indicators like RSI, MACD, and moving averages.

2

Signal Generation

Advanced algorithms generate BUY or SELL signals based on multiple technical indicators and pattern recognition.

3

Automatic Execution

When a strong signal is detected, the bot automatically opens a position with stop loss and take profit levels.

4

Position Management

Bot continuously monitors open positions, moves trailing stops, and closes trades when targets are hit.

5

Risk Management

Every cycle checks daily drawdown limits, account equity, and risk parameters to ensure safe trading.

MT5 connection errors

Ensure the following:

  • MetaTrader 5 terminal is running
  • Symbol is added to Market Watch
  • AutoTrading is enabled in MT5
  • MetaTrader5 Python package is installed
