About the Aroon Expert Advisor
The Aroon EA Metatrader 4 Forex Robot is a very simple automated trading software that trades based on the Aroon technical indicator.
The robot is designed to first spot the strength of a trend based on the Aroon indicator logic and then calculate the data into an oscillator that triggers buy and sell entries during an up and down trending market, respectively.
The default optimization parameters and filters that come with the Aroon expert advisor can be tweaked, but I find the basic logic to be quite good.
Interestingly, the Aroon EA also uses a WPR oscillator to obtain good entry and exit price levels.
The Aroon EA works best on the 15-minute time frame or higher.
Attach the EA to low spread forex pairs for the best performance.
