Disliked{quote} The EA should have a spread parameter stopping it from opening trades where the spread is too wide to gain a result. So better to trade when we have more volume and the spread is say 0.02 to 1 pips, also a R:R should be builtin where the trade is skipped if the target is too close to the EP.Ignored
What you describe I would consider to be more like a filter -- as opposed to part of a signal. Filters are easy to implement. By rules I was referring to what constitutes a potential signal. Suppose you were talking with a friend on the phone and you were both looking at the same chart -- how would you describe to him/her when to open a BUY or SELL trade.
