Overview

A meta-strategy that classifies the current market regime (trending vs ranging vs high-volatility) and dynamically switches between a trend-following module and a mean-reversion module. It aims to trade the right tool for current conditions rather than forcing one style across all regimes.

Features

• ADX(14) and ATR(14) for regime classification
• Trend module: EMA crossover / channel breakout
• Range module: Bollinger/RSI mean reversion
• Configurable stop-loss, take-profit, and trailing logic
• Session, spread, and news-time filters for disciplined execution
• One-trade-per-bar / duplicate-signal protection
• Clean, single-file MQL4 and MQL5 implementations
• No hidden logic — every input is exposed and documented
• No martingale, no grid, no hidden recovery logic

Trading Strategy

Entry logic: – Regime detection: ADX > 25 => trend regime; ADX range regime; ATR spike => stand aside or reduce size.

• Trend regime: use the trend module (e.g., EMA20/50 pullback-continuation) for entries.
• Range regime: use the mean-reversion module (fade Bollinger extremes with RSI confirmation).
• Only one module is active at a time based on the current classification.

Exit logic: – Each module uses its own exit; additionally, flatten or tighten if the regime flips against the open position.

Stop-loss: Trend module: ATR-based / structure stop. Range module: beyond the band. Both sized by ATR.

Take-profit: Trend module: trailing / next structure. Range module: opposite band / mean.

Trailing stop: Trend module trails (ATR/structure); range module uses fixed targets.

Break-even: Break-even at 1R in both modules.

Why it works: Adapts to changing conditions; smoother equity across regimes.; Combines complementary edges in one system..
