Money Rain Strategy

Overview

  • Conversion of the original MoneyRain (barabashkakvn's edition) expert advisor from MQL5 to StockSharp high-level API.
  • Uses the DeMarker oscillator to choose direction: values above 0.5 trigger long entries, while values at or below 0.5 trigger short entries.
  • Trades only one position at a time and relies on fixed stop-loss / take-profit offsets expressed in points.

Market Data & Indicators

  • Subscribes to the configurable CandleType (default: 30-minute time frame).
  • Computes a single DeMarker indicator with adjustable DeMarkerPeriod (default: 31).
  • Subscribes to Level 1 quotes to approximate the current spread, which is required by the adaptive position-sizing logic.

Trading Logic

  1. Process only finished candles to stay aligned with the original "new bar" logic (iTime(0) check in MQL).
  2. While a position exists, monitor the candle high/low against pre-computed stop-loss and take-profit levels. If one of them is touched, close the position with a market order and mark the result as either a loss or a profit.
  3. When there is no open position and the loss-limit safeguard is not hit, calculate the trade volume.
  4. Enter long on DeMarker > 0.5; otherwise enter short. The strategy cancels any resting orders before sending the market order.

Money Management

  • Reproduces the getLots() logic from the MQL version by tracking:
    • _lossesVolume: cumulative volume of recent losing trades scaled by the base lot size.
    • _consecutiveLosses and _consecutiveProfits: streak counters used to decide when to reset the loss accumulator.
  • When the first profitable trade after a losing streak appears (_consecutiveProfits == 0), the next order size is increased according to the original formula: [ \text = \text \times \frac{_lossesVolume \times (\text + \text)}{\text - \text} ]
  • The spread is estimated from best bid/ask quotes (in points) and ignored when Level 1 data is not yet available.
  • Setting FastOptimize = true disables the adaptive sizing and always uses the base lot.

Risk Controls

  • StopLossPoints and TakeProfitPoints are converted to absolute prices using the security price step with an additional 10x multiplier for 3- or 5-digit symbols (mirrors the digits_adjust logic from MQL).
  • LossLimit blocks further trades once the number of consecutive losses exceeds the user-defined threshold (default: effectively disabled at 1,000,000).

Parameters

Parameter Description Default
DeMarkerPeriod Averaging period of the DeMarker indicator. 31
TakeProfitPoints Take-profit offset in DeMarker-style points. 5
StopLossPoints Stop-loss offset in DeMarker-style points. 20
BaseVolume Default order volume (lot size). 0.01
LossLimit Maximum consecutive losses allowed before pausing. 1,000,000
FastOptimize When true, disables adaptive position sizing. false
CandleType Candle data type used for calculations. 30-minute candles

Implementation Notes

  • Stops and targets are emulated by checking candle extremes. Intrabar fill order cannot be recovered, so simultaneous touches favour the stop-loss branch (conservative assumption).
  • OnOwnTradeReceived is used to detect when a protective exit order completed, allowing the strategy to update streak counters and loss-volume accumulator.
  • The code keeps indentation with tabs and uses English comments, following repository guidelines.

Files

  • CS/MoneyRainStrategy.cs – strategy implementation.
  • README.md / README_ru.md / README_zh.md – multilingual documentation.

Differences from the MQL Version

  • Broker-side protective orders are replaced with market exits based on candle ranges.
  • Spread is approximated from Level 1 quotes rather than directly from symbol metadata.
  • Mailing functionality and explicit IsTradeAllowed checks are omitted because the StockSharp environment manages connectivity separately.
