Trading Strategies     Expert Advisors Weekend GAP Strategy Expert Advisor The only time the FOREX market GAPs is over the weekend. Many traders are aware of this and can profit from it's arbitrary performance. The GAP tends to close approximately 87% of the time. Considering this, the system is quantifiable and can be preformed by an Expert Advisor. The Expert Advisor trades all currency pairs and can be adjusted to suit personal preferences. Test From June 2010   Trades Wins % GBP/USD 9 8 87.5% EUR/USD 18 16 88.2% USD/JPY 5 4 80% AUD/USD 12 10 82% USD/CHF 12 11 91% USD/CAD 10 8 80% GBP/AUD 14 14 100%               How does it work? - This EA works with a number of factors which filter out trades that have a lower probability of success. The GAP expert Advisor will consider the spread, GAP distance and delay time to enter the trade. ie if the spread is too wide or the GAP distance is too small it will ignore the trade. The GAP EA will also wait user defined minutes before entering the trade. This assists in allowing some time to lower the spread. Additionally, the GAP Expert Advisor will allow you to choose take profit and stop loss strategy. ie you can have a set TP or SL or you can have the Robot calculate a multiple of the GAP size for the TP & SL. For example, you may choose a 3 x GAP size as your stop and a 0.75 x GAP size for TP. The GAP Robot will also use anti-martingale money management. for example, you may choose between a fixed posityion size or a percentage of float to determine position size. Want to know more?
