Six Indicators Momentum Strategy

This strategy reproduces the MetaTrader 4 expert advisor 6xIndics_M using the StockSharp high-level API. It mixes six momentum inputs derived from Bill Williams' Accelerator Oscillator (AC) and Awesome Oscillator (AO) and feeds them through a selectable decision matrix. A slow stochastic oscillator acts as the final filter. Only one position is open at a time; martingale money management, stop-loss/take-profit and optional trailing stops emulate the original behaviour.

How the strategy works

  1. Data subscription – the strategy subscribes to the configured candle series (CandleType, default 1-hour bars).
  2. Indicators
    • Awesome Oscillator calculates the difference between the 5- and 34-period simple moving averages of the median price.
    • A 5-period simple moving average of the AO produces the Accelerator Oscillator values (AC).
    • A Stochastic Oscillator with parameters 5/5/5 supplies the %K line that is delayed by one closed candle (MT4 shift = 1).
  3. Six indicator slots – every finished candle fills the following buffers:
    • Slot 0: AC value shifted by 1 candle (AC[1]).
    • Slot 1: AC value shifted by 10 candles (AC[10]).
    • Slot 2: AC value shifted by 20 candles (AC[20]).
    • Slot 3: AO momentum, i.e. AO[0] - AO[shift], where the shift is configurable (AoMomentumShift).
    • Slot 4: AC momentum AC[0] - AC[shift #1] (AcPrimaryShift).
    • Slot 5: AC momentum AC[0] - AC[shift #2] (AcSecondaryShift).
  4. Selectable signal matrix – parameters FirstSourceIndex … SixthSourceIndex pick which slot feeds the six Boolean checks originally named k, u, t, e, r, o. The same indices are reused both for generating entries and for closing trades when CloseOnReverseSignal is enabled.
  5. Entry logic
    • Buy when the chosen slots satisfy: A > 0, B > 0.0001 × Sensitivity, C > 0.0002 × Sensitivity, D < 0, E < 0.0001 × Sensitivity, F < 0.0002 × Sensitivity, and the previous stochastic %K is below 15.
    • Sell when A < 0, B < 0.0001 × Sensitivity, C < 0.0002 × Sensitivity, D > 0, E > 0.0001 × Sensitivity, F > 0.0002 × Sensitivity, and the previous stochastic %K is above 85.
  6. Position management
    • Only one position is allowed. When a trade is open the strategy skips new entries, mirroring the MT4 expert.
    • Stop-loss and take-profit levels are converted from pips into absolute prices using the instrument tick size (exactly as Point works in MT4).
    • Optional trailing stop replicates the original behaviour: it activates once price moves by TrailingStopPips beyond the entry (and, when RequireProfitForTrailing is true, by an extra LockProfitPips). The stop follows price only in the favourable direction.
    • CloseOnReverseSignal closes a profitable trade if the opposite signal appears (Bid above the entry for longs, Ask below for shorts).
  7. Martingale sizing – when enabled, the next order volume equals the previous trade volume multiplied by (TakeProfitPips + StopLossPips) / TakeProfitPips whenever a trade closes at a loss or break-even. Winning trades reset the size to the base Volume.

Parameters

Parameter Description Default
AllowBuy, AllowSell Enable or disable long/short entries. true
CloseOnReverseSignal Close the current position when an opposite signal appears while the trade is in profit. false
FirstSourceIndex … SixthSourceIndex Choose which of the six indicator slots feeds each logical check. Values outside 0–5 are clamped. 1,2,3,4,3,4
AoMomentumShift Number of bars between the current AO value and the comparison used in slot 3. 10
AcPrimaryShift, AcSecondaryShift Number of bars between the current AC value and the comparisons for slots 4 and 5. 10 / 10
SensitivityMultiplier Multiplier applied to the 0.0001 and 0.0002 thresholds used in the slot checks. 1.0
TakeProfitPips, StopLossPips Exit distances expressed in MetaTrader-style pips (they are rescaled by the tick size). 300 / 300
UseTrailingStop Enable the trailing stop logic. false
TrailingStopPips Distance between price and trailing stop, in pips. 300
RequireProfitForTrailing When enabled, the trailing stop activates only after the trade gains an extra LockProfitPips. false
LockProfitPips Additional profit (in pips) that must be locked before the trailing stop starts moving. 300
Volume Base order size. 0.1
UseMartingale Enable martingale position sizing. false
CandleType Candle series used for all calculations. TimeSpan.FromHours(1)

Notes and best practices

  • Every candle is processed only after it finishes, so signals mimic the MT4 expert that executed once per bar (prevtime guard in the original code).
  • The strategy stores only the required history (up to 256 bars) to reproduce the MT4 shift calculations without calling GetValue() on indicators, satisfying the project guidelines.
  • Trailing and stop/limit exits are simulated on candle highs/lows. In a live environment you should use real stop orders for guaranteed execution.
  • Martingale sizing uses the instrument’s VolumeStep, MinVolume, and MaxVolume limits to keep volumes within broker rules.
  • When AllowBuy or AllowSell is disabled, the corresponding signals are ignored, but the opposite signal can still be used for CloseOnReverseSignal.

Differences versus the MT4 expert

  • Indicator calculations use StockSharp’s built-in Awesome Oscillator and SMA classes; no manual buffer management is required.
  • All trades are executed via market orders (BuyMarket / SellMarket) and exits via ClosePosition(), while the MT4 version sent explicit OrderSend/OrderClose requests.
  • Lot sizing respects the exchange volume granularity by rounding to VolumeStep and clamping to [MinVolume, MaxVolume].
  • Chart helpers (DrawCandles, DrawIndicator, DrawOwnTrades) are added for visual inspection when a chart is available.
