If you're diving into the world of trading, the Volume Weighted MA Expert Advisor (often referred to as the VWMA EA) is a tool you won't want to overlook. This EA operates by analyzing the Volume Weighted MA indicator, providing signals based on changes in the indicator's color as a bar closes.

To get this EA up and running, you'll need the compiled indicator file Volume_Weighted_MA.ex5. Just pop it into your <terminal_data_folder>\MQL5\Indicators directory, and you'll be good to go.

One thing to keep in mind is that the TradeAlgorithms.mqh library file is essential for using Expert Advisors with brokers that offer a nonzero spread. This library also allows you to set Stop Loss and Take Profit levels at the same time you open a position. If you're looking for more variations of this library, you can check out the link here: Trade Algorithms.

For the tests shown below, we've used the default input parameters for the EA. Notably, neither Stop Loss nor Take Profit were applied during these tests.
