Meet the MARSI EA! BacktestDrawdown/loss(-1.07%) This beginner-friendly Expert Advisor (EA) merges the power of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to pinpoint and execute trading opportunities in financial markets, particularly XAUUSD (Gold).

The EA is designed to showcase:

  • Dynamic lot sizing that adjusts to your account risk

  • RSI-driven entry conditions for overbought and oversold markets

  • Trend filtering through the use of a Moving Average

  • Stop Loss and Take Profit levels fine-tuned to symbol tick precision

It's particularly valuable for those just dipping their toes into technical strategies, offering insights into how indicators, dynamic risk management, and broker-specific details can influence your trading decisions.


Understanding the Trading Logic

Here’s how the EA operates:

  • Buy when:

    • The current price sits above the moving average, indicating a bullish trend.

    • RSI is under the oversold threshold, hinting that prices may be on the rise.

  • Sell when:

    • The price drops below the moving average, suggesting a bearish trend.

    • RSI exceeds the overbought threshold, indicating that prices could decline.

  • Stop Loss and Take Profit settings are configured using _Point and are adjusted based on your broker's pricing precision (_Digits).
