This is a grid Expert Advisor. It features several trading strategies based on Moving Average. It works on minute bar Open prices. Virtual trailing stop, stop loss and take profit can be set in pips, in the deposit currency or as a percentage of the balance. Depending on the settings, different orders may be opened for diversifying risks. Their closure can be either an oppositely directed or unidirectional basket of orders.

The order grid is adaptive and is made of market orders. If the price has moved to the opposite side of the open order for a distance equal to OrderOpenStop + OrderOpenStep, the virtual level of opening a new order is set. If the price continues its movement in the opposite direction from the open order, the previously established order opening level is moved following the price. If the price touches or crosses a given level, a trade is opened. Thus, the most favorable price for opening positions in the order grid is achieved. The trading lot in the order grid is calculated on the basis of a given lot per 1000 units of the base currency multiplied by a factor or with a given summary lot.
