    Default Cowabunga System EA



    Here is the Expert Advisor based on the popular Cowabunga System.

    Note that the EA is not complete. There is not the Last High/Low Swing SL and the exit at round numbers. The code is designed for M15, but you can test it on the time frame of your choice.

    EU M5. On one year.

    Total Net Profit : 93.45%
    RDD : 29.54%

    I have tried the code on FXDD. I get only an OrderModify error 1, an error that occurs when the modification has already been made. It can be ignored.

    What are your settings/pair/timeframe ?

    Hi forexcu,

    For this one, we don't need time filter. There is only few trades per year.

    From the Strategy Tester report, profitable trade is 96% and the consecutive losses is 1, can we have a limited Martingale system here, where when it losses, it will double the lot size the next time BUT need to limit the number of time it does that, since consecutive loss is 1 time, maybe the Martingale should be limited to 2 or 3 times. That way it will make this an even more profitable sytem.

    Yes but there is no SL TP here only a TS. The martingale could generale a big hole. I have not tried with a SL and a TP. I don't think that it will be the same ratio.
