Description

FRZ No Nonsense Forex Strategy EA is based on the popular NoNonsense Forex Method (NNFX). NNFX is a strictly rule-based manual trading method with strict risk management technique be used on daily charts. We have created our own EA based on the NNFX method (subject to minor modifications) and our EA can take both initial and continuation trades. (We are NOT connected nor affiliated with NNFX creators and the indicators we use are decided by us based on our own research and there can be modifications to the original rules based on our testing and optimizations).

We have tested many different indicators and settings and decided on our algo/indicators and optimal settings after extensive back/forward testing. You can  always do a DEMO test before moving to a real account.

Added Features:

• EURO FX VIX: EA will automatically access the EURO FX VIX index from barchart.com and take that figure in deciding on the trading pattern/continuation trades.
• Inbuilt news filter: EA will automatically access upcoming news from investing.com and avoid trading during news times. It also features a news spike guard where SL is tightened during news events if there are on-going trades.
• Week-end fluctuation guard –  Trades that stay over the weekend will also be subject to tightened SL to reduce the risk of large fluctuations during the weekend.
• Related pair avoidance – EA will recognize co-related pairs and avoid having concurrent trades in related pairs in order to reduce the duplication of risks.
• Ranging market identification – EA has a special algorithm inbuilt that can effectively identify the ranging markets and avoid trading in them.

We have included several other algorithms to avoid potentially losing trades and increase profitability.

How to Install:

1. Go to MT4>Options>Expert Advisors and tick “Allow web requests for listed URL” and then add following URLs:

• http://ec.forexprostools.com/
• http://worldclockapi.com/
• https://barchart.com/

2. Copy the indicators into the MT4 Indicators folder
3. Copy the EA to the Experts folder
4. Load the EA to each of the charts (Make sure you load the EA when the forex market is active otherwise news filter settings may not get set properly)
5. Change settings if necessary

Setting Explanations:

1. Lot Size => Here you can set the lot size as a % of your account size. By default, it is 2%.
2. Stop Loss (ATR Multiplier) => Stop loss is set a multiplier of the ATR (Average True Range) (not in Pips). For instance, if you put 2 here, that means your stop-loss is two times of your ATR at the time of trade entry. That means if the ATR was 15pips at that time, then the stop loss will be 30pips. (Default SL is 1.5xATR that is what is recommended by NNFX method but you can change it if necessary).
3. Take Profit (ATR Multiplier) => Take profit is also set a multiplier of the ATR (Average True Range) (not in Pips). For instance, if you put 2 here, that means your take profit is two times of your ATR at the time of trade entry. That means if the ATR was 15pips at that time, then the take profit will be 30pips. (Default TP is 1xATR that is what is recommended by NNFX method but you can change it if necessary).
4. Partial Close % up on TP => NNFX method recommend to close 50% of the trade upon reaching initial TP and then moving stop loss to break even. However, if you need it, you can use a different percentage (please use without “%” sign). Generally, in ranging or low volume markets, it can be better to increase this percentage.
5. Trailing Stop (ATR Multiplier) => Once a trade reaches set TP level set under setting 3, it closes a part of the trade set under setting 4, and then stop loss is moved to breakeven. Thereafter, you can set a trailing stop for the remaining portion. NNFX method recommends 2xATR from the original entry price that is the default setting but you can change it in this setting if necessary.
6. Max Spread (Pips) => Here you can set the maximum spread in pips you can allow. If the spread is more than this amount, the robot will not take trades.
7. Enable Continuation trades without original Trades => When you first load the EA, there may be instances where there are setups suitable for continuation trades as per basic NNFX rules. If you enable this, EA will trade those instances. It is enabled by default.
8. Close Concurrent Trades => The EA does not take new trades that are related to the currency pairs of the on-going trades if any in order to reduce the risk. For instance, if there is a EURUSD trade going on EA will not take an AUDUSD trade or EURGBP trade. However, there is a chance that several trades with related pairs open at the exact same time. In that case, you can close all such trades if you have enabled this setting. For instance assume that 3 trades, EURUSD, USDGBP, and USDCAD opened at 16:31:59, the if you had set this setting true, the robot will close all those three trades immediately after opening.
9. EURO VIX => Here you can specify a value of EURO VIX Index. If the index is less than the value given here, the EA will close the trade fully upon reaching TP instead of half-closing. This is something recommended in the NNFX method. The EA will update this index from barchat.com frequently.
10. Disable Exit Based on Baseline => If you want, you can disable the exit of trades based on the baseline indicator. (As per NNFX rules, if the price closes on the other side of the baseline, then the trades should be closed). This is set to be true by default.
11. Enable Immediate Trailing Stop => This will enable a trailing stop for non-partial trades immediately without waiting till a certain amount of profit is reached. This can sometimes reduce the risk. This is set to be true by default.
12. Before News Filter => The EA will not take new trades when there is high impact news coming. You can set the time in minutes. For instance, if you set 60 here, the EA will not take any new trades when there is high impact news within the next 60 minutes. Please note you need to set this time when the EA starts to take effect and it may not be in effect if you change it from settings later after.
13. After News Filter => The EA will not take new trades when there was nearby high impact news. You can set the time in minutes. For instance, if you set 60 here, the EA will not take any new trades when there was a piece of high impact news within the last 60 minutes. Please note you need to set this time when the EA starts to take effect and it may not be in effect if you change it from settings later.
14. Shrink Stop Loss during News Times for Existing Trades => You can shrink or reduce the stop loss just before the news time and then revert back (if not SL was not hit) to previous just after the news. This is disabled by default but you can enable it here.
15. Shrink Stop Loss during Weekends for Existing Trades => You can shrink or reduce the stop loss just before Friday day end and then revert back (if not SL was not hit) to previous just after Monday open.
16. Stop Loss Shrink Size (Pips) => This is the temporary stop loss to be set for above Setting No.14 & 15. This will be revert back to original level as mentioned before.
17. Magic Number => You do not need to change this number on different charts. If you change it, EA will consider those differently numbered charts as a different set of trades. We recommend keeping the magic number unchanged for all charts.
