About ATS Core EA

ATS Core EA is an H1 grid robot for MetaTrader 5. It enters when the MACD line crosses zero while the ADX is rising, takes 10 pips, and adds same-size positions when price moves against it. Supplied with set files for AUDCAD, EURJPY and GBPUSD.

How ATS Core EA Works

ATS Core EA is a MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor for the H1 chart. Our team built its strategy in Expert Advisor Studio on EURJPY, without writing code, and runs it on the same trading engine as our other ATS EAs: money management, the grid, the trading session, the protections, the news filter and the on-chart panel all work the same way.

The entry has two conditions. The MACD line (9, 20, 9) crosses zero on the last closed bar: up for a buy, down for a sell. And the ADX (49) is rising, which says the move is gaining strength. ADX does not show a direction, so the same check applies to both sides, and the EA buys and sells about equally often.

Every trade has a 10-pip take profit and no stop loss. If price moves the other way, the grid in the supplied set files adds a position of the same size at a fixed distance, and the whole basket closes together once it is 10 pips past its average entry. The only limit on a losing basket is the basket stop at half the account balance. Most baskets close within hours, but a basket that reaches the stop loses far more than a winning basket makes. It is not a fit for beginners. Past results, in a backtest or on a live account, don't guarantee future results, and trading with an EA can lose money.

Is ATS Core EA Right for You?

ATS Core EA is a simple, readable H1 grid: two indicators in, a 10-pip target out, and a basket stop at half the balance as the limit.

Best suited for:

  • Grid traders on a hedging account who size the grid to their balance.
  • Traders who want an EA that buys and sells about equally.
  • Traders who will test the set files and the basket stop before trading them.
  • Traders who run their EAs on a VPS.

Not recommended for:

  • Beginners.
  • Traders who cannot accept a loss of up to half the balance on one basket.
  • Prop firm accounts whose rules ban grid trading or limit daily drawdown.
  • Traders who want a stop loss on every trade.
  • Traders who want a fast scalper on M1 or M5.

What Is Inside ATS Core EA

Every part of the EA is set from its inputs; the user guide explains each one.

  • Two-Condition Entry

    A trade opens at the start of a new H1 bar when the MACD line crossed zero on the last closed bar and the ADX rose on it.

    Read more

    A trade opens at the start of a new H1 bar when the MACD line crossed zero on the last closed bar and the ADX rose on it. Only one basket is open at a time. The indicator settings are inputs under ENTRY LOGIC, so you can see and test exactly what drives each trade.

  • A Small Take Profit, No Stop Loss

    Each order is sent with a 10-pip take profit and no stop loss.

    Read more

    Each order is sent with a 10-pip take profit and no stop loss. There is no exit indicator, no trailing stop and no reverse on an opposite signal: a trade ends at the take profit, with its basket, or at the basket stop.

  • A Fixed Grid

    When price moves a set distance against the last position, the EA opens another one in the same direction: every 40 pips on AUDCAD, 70 on EURJPY and 100 on GBPUSD.

    Read more

    When price moves a set distance against the last position, the EA opens another one in the same direction: every 40 pips on AUDCAD, 70 on EURJPY and 100 on GBPUSD. Every layer has the same size, so it is a fixed grid, not a martingale. The basket closes once it is 10 pips past its average entry, or at the basket stop. Up to 100 positions are allowed.

  • The Basket Stop

    The supplied set files close the whole basket when its open loss reaches 50% of the balance.

    Read more

    The supplied set files close the whole basket when its open loss reaches 50% of the balance. That is the EA's only limit on a loss. It caps how much one basket can take, but at that size a single stop costs far more than many winning baskets make.

  • Money Management

    The set files size each entry from the balance: 0.01 lot per 200 USD on AUDCAD and EURJPY, and per 400 USD on GBPUSD, so on a 2,000 USD account the first trade is 0.10 or 0.05 lots and the size follows the account.

    The set files size each entry from the balance: 0.01 lot per 200 USD on AUDCAD and EURJPY, and per 400 USD on GBPUSD, so on a 2,000 USD account the first trade is 0.10 or 0.05 lots and the size follows the account. You can also trade fixed lots, or scale with equity.

  • Protections, Session and News Filter

    Limits on spread, open positions and open lots; daily loss and daily drawdown limits; minimum and maximum equity and an equity drawdown stop; a trading session with Friday close; and a news filter that pauses new entries around high- or medium-impact events.

    Read more

    Limits on spread, open positions and open lots; daily loss and daily drawdown limits; minimum and maximum equity and an equity drawdown stop; a trading session with Friday close; and a news filter that pauses new entries around high- or medium-impact events. The set files use only the spread limit, on EURJPY and GBPUSD.

What You Get with ATS Core EA

  • An Entry You Can Read

    Two named indicator conditions decide every entry, and each setting is an input you can see and test.

  • Ready-Made Set Files

    Grid set files for AUDCAD, EURJPY and GBPUSD on H1, plus the user guide that explains every input.

  • Real Backtests, Losses Included

    All three set files are tested over five years on Darwinex prices in our Backtest Manager, and the reports below update as new data comes in.

  • Built-In Protections

    Spread, daily, equity and news protections, a trading session and an on-chart panel come with the EA.

  • A Public Live Account

    We run it on a live account, and the figures at the top of this page come from our Account Tracker, with the drawdown next to the gain.

Who Should Use ATS Core EA?

Whether you can carry a basket's open loss decides whether this EA fits you.

  • The Grid Trader

    You trade on a hedging account and accept a basket that adds positions against you until it closes in profit or at the basket stop.

    Read more

    You trade on a hedging account and accept a basket that adds positions against you until it closes in profit or at the basket stop. You size it to your account and watch its open loss.

  • The Portfolio Builder

    You want a robot that buys and sells about equally, on three pairs from different currency groups, next to other strategies, with a known worst case per basket.

  • The Hands-On Tester

    You want to see which two indicators drive the entries and test the pairs, distances and the basket stop in the MetaTrader Strategy Tester before you trade them.

Why Traders Choose ATS Core EA

  1. Both Directions

    The MACD cross sets the direction and the ADX check is the same for buys and sells, so the EA trades both ways, unlike robots that lean to one side.

  2. Short Trades

    A 10-pip target is reached quickly when price moves the right way, so most trades are short.

    A 10-pip target is reached quickly when price moves the right way, so most trades are short. A basket only stays open when price moves against it and the grid takes over. A basket only stays open when price moves against it and the grid takes over.

  3. A Known Worst Case

    The basket stop sets the largest loss a basket can take before it happens: half the balance.

    Read more

    The basket stop sets the largest loss a basket can take before it happens: half the balance. Lower it in the inputs if that is more than you can accept.

  4. Results in the Open

    Our live account running it is on this page, read by our Account Tracker straight from the broker, and the backtests show every set file, including the one that lost.

  5. Licensed for Your Own Accounts

    Your licence covers the MetaTrader 5 accounts you register in My Account; how many depends on the option you buy.

Setting Up ATS Core EA

From the download to a running EA: the same steps as the user guide in the package.

  1. Copy the files into MetaTrader

    The download has the .ex5 file, the user guide and the set files for AUDCAD, EURJPY and GBPUSD.

    Read more

    The download has the .ex5 file, the user guide and the set files for AUDCAD, EURJPY and GBPUSD. In MetaTrader 5 open File › Open Data Folder, copy the .ex5 into MQL5\Experts and the .set files into MQL5\Presets, then refresh the Navigator.

  2. Register your accounts and allow WebRequest

    In My Account › Licenses on our website, enter the MetaTrader account numbers you will trade on.

    Read more

    In My Account › Licenses on our website, enter the MetaTrader account numbers you will trade on. In MetaTrader open Tools › Options › Expert Advisors, tick Allow WebRequest for listed URL and add https://algotradingspace.com, so the EA can check its licence. The grid needs a hedging account.

  3. Attach the EA and load a set file

    Open an H1 chart of the pair, drag the EA onto it, load the matching .set file on the Inputs tab, then paste your licence key into License_Key.

    Open an H1 chart of the pair, drag the EA onto it, load the matching .set file on the Inputs tab, then paste your licence key into License_Key. Paste the key after loading the set file, because loading replaces every input.

  4. Confirm it runs and follow it

    The Experts tab shows the licence as valid, and the on-chart panel shows the EA's state.

    Read more

    The Experts tab shows the licence as valid, and the on-chart panel shows the EA's state. Follow the account in our Account Tracker to see the open loss of a basket and every trade as it happens.

Before You Trade It Live

Test it on a demo account first, and size it so that a basket stop at half the balance is a loss you can survive. The backtest reports above show each set file over the last five years, updated as new data comes in: check the maximum drawdown next to the gain, and the equity line for open losses. The GBPUSD test includes a basket that reached the basket stop in September 2023; the replay under The Basket Stop, in What Is Inside ATS Core EA, shows how it happened. Our live account at BlackBull Markets is at the top of this page, with its deepest drawdown next to its gain. Until September 2026 it also ran the EA on GBPCHF and AUDCHF; since then it runs only the three supplied set files.

Common Questions About ATS Core EA

Setup, the grid and licensing.

Which pairs and timeframe does ATS Core EA trade?

It runs on H1. The strategy was built on EURJPY, and the package has set files for AUDCAD, EURJPY and GBPUSD. Load the set file that matches the chart.

Is it a grid or martingale EA?

It is a grid EA. The supplied set files add positions of the same size at a fixed distance, so it is not a martingale. If you change the grid volume mode to increment, scale or Fibonacci, each new position is larger, which works like a martingale and raises the risk.

Does it have a stop loss?

Not on each trade in the supplied set files. The whole basket closes when its open loss reaches 50% of the balance. You can lower that limit in the inputs (GridStopLossValue), or set your own daily and equity limits under the protections.

Can it run without the grid?

The inputs allow it: with the grid off, each trade gets its own stop loss. Our backtests and our live account all run the supplied grid set files, so we have no results to show for that way of running it.

Does it need a hedging account?

Yes. The grid holds several positions on the same pair at once, and the EA refuses to start with the grid on a netting account.

How much capital do I need?

The set files size each entry from the balance (0.01 lot per 200 USD, or per 400 USD on GBPUSD), so the lots follow your account. The starting balance of each backtest and of our live account is shown in its report. Plan for the basket stop: on the supplied settings one losing basket can take half of the balance.

Which broker do you run it on?

Our live account is at BlackBull Markets. Any MetaTrader 5 broker with a hedging account works. The backtests use Darwinex prices.

Is ATS Core EA suitable for prop firms?

Usually not on the supplied settings. Many firms ban grid trading, and a basket's open loss can break a daily or overall drawdown limit long before the basket stop. Check the firm's rules first.

Do I need a VPS?

Yes, for live trading. The EA has to run without interruption to manage open baskets, which close on its own target and stop, and to check its licence.

How does the licence work?

After you buy, your licence key is in My Account › Licenses, where you also enter the MetaTrader account numbers you will trade on. Paste the key into License_Key and allow WebRequest for https://algotradingspace.com. The EA checks the licence when it starts and every few hours after.
