If you're looking to enhance your trading game, the BykovTrend Expert Advisor (EA) for MetaTrader 5 might just be the tool you need. This trading system generates signals based on the BykovTrend indicator, giving you an edge at the close of a bar when a colored indicator arrow appears.

To get started, you'll need to upload the compiled indicator file BykovTrend.ex5 to your MetaTrader 5 platform. Simply save it in your <terminal_data_folder>\MQL5\Indicators directory.

One of the coolest features of this EA is that it utilizes the TradeAlgorithms.mqh library. This means you can trade with brokers offering a non-zero spread, and you can set your Stop Loss and Take Profit levels right when you open a position. If you want to explore more options, check out the Trade Algorithms library at this link: Trade Algorithms.

For the tests highlighted below, we used the default input parameters for the Expert Advisor. Notably, we didn't employ Stop Loss or Take Profit during these tests.
