Tired of forking out hundreds for a so-called “premium” Expert Advisor that rarely delivers? You’re not alone. Many traders hit roadblocks with black-box robots, blind to the logic that drives entries and exits. Enter EA Price Action Source Code V1.0, a fully open-source MQL4 solution that puts the power back in your hands—no hidden fees, no proprietary lock-in, just pure price-action mastery on MetaTrader 4.
With EA Price Action Source Code V1.0, you get transparent, battle-tested logic that reads swing highs and lows like a pro, filters noise, and executes trades with surgical precision. Whether you’re a beginner learning price action basics or a seasoned algo-developer wanting to tweak every line of code, this free MT4 price action EA gives you the canvas to build your perfect strategy.
EA Price Action Source Code V1.0 MQ4 is engineered to deliver consistent, rule-based trades by analyzing raw price behavior—no indicators, no martingale, no grid. Built for the H1 and H4 timeframes on major forex pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY), it spots clean swing breaks and momentum shifts, then places pending orders with dynamic trigger zones and adaptive stop-loss levels.
Key points at a glance:
Crafted with YoForex’s rigorous backtesting standards, EA Price Action Source Code V1.0 has been optimized on tick data from 2015–2024, ensuring real-world viability.
Under the hood, EA Price Action Source Code V1.0 employs a three-stage decision flow:
Swing Identification
• Scans recent candle swings for higher highs/lower lows
• Filters out micro-range noise using configurable ATR thresholds
Breakout Confirmation
• Places pending buy-stop or sell-stop orders at key swing extremes
• Validates breakout strength by requiring a minimum candle close beyond the swing
Dynamic Risk Control
• Calculates stop-loss based on recent ATR multiples (default 1.5× ATR)
• Implements a trailing stop that locks in partial profits after a user-defined pip gain
This pure “price action EA” logic means there’s no reliance on moving averages or stochastic crossovers—just raw market structure. You can tweak every parameter in the source code, from minimum breakout distance to time-of-day filters, making it one of the most flexible MT4 price action EA templates available for free.
