Overview

The King Hedging Forex 2R EA V1.0 MT4 is a free Expert Advisor designed to perform in both trending and ranging market conditions. At its core lies a dual-layered risk control methodology: the EA defines an initial risk unit (“1R”) per trade based on your stop-loss distance, then caps potential risk at twice that amount (“2R”) across simultaneous hedged positions. This hedging EA MT4 logic means it can open counter-trades automatically if market moves turn against the original position—minimizing drawdown and smoothing equity curves.

Built entirely in MQL4 for the MetaTrader 4 platform, The King Hedging Forex 2R EA V1.0 MT4 focuses on major currency pairs like EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, and AUD/USD on the H1 timeframe. But you can tweak timeframes, currency filters, and risk levels to match your style. YoForex’s back-end testing spanned over 10 years of tick data, and the live-market verification ran seamlessly for three months straight—proof tho that this MT4 expert advisor isn’t just theory.

Because it’s 100% free on MQL5.software, you can download, backtest, or demo-trade within minutes. No subscription, no trial periods—just straightforward automation that levels the playing field.

Strategy Logic

At the heart of The King Hedging Forex 2R EA V1.0 MT4 is a hedging algorithm that adapts in real time. Here’s how it works:

Signal Generation: The EA monitors price action and a blend of indicators—moving averages, ATR-based volatility filters, and momentum oscillators—to identify high-probability entries.
Initial Trade (“1R”): Once a signal fires, the EA places the first market order with a stop-loss set at your defined risk distance.
Hedging Activation: If price retraces beyond the 1R level, instead of simply stopping out, the EA opens a reverse position of equivalent size. This hedged pair works to offset losses on the original trade.
Risk Cap (“2R”): The EA tracks cumulative risk across the pair. When total risk hits 2R, no new hedges are added—ensuring you never pyramid into runaway losses.
Profit Extraction: As soon as conditions swing back in your favor, the EA closes both positions for a net gain, aiming for at least 1.5R profit per cycle.

This dynamic hedging approach lets you capture retracements and reversals without blowing accounts. You’ll appreciate how The King Hedging Forex 2R EA V1.0 MT4 balances aggressiveness with prudence.
