The MetaTrader Price Channel expert advisor draws the support and resistance levels, then trades when the price bounces back from the channel's levels. |
| Buying in an uptrend price channel, and closing long trades at upper level |
The Channel Trading Expert Advisor for MetaTrader was designed to make possible trading within an ascending or descending price channel, therefore trading with the trend of that particular channel. So basically the Channel EA is made for trend trader who prefer to trade with the trend. To make sure that the EA's price channel doesn't go against a main trend, the expert advisor is also equipped with a simple but powerful trend detector that can be used along with the channel's trend. In a nut-shell, for a buy signal to be valid (and the EA to open a long trade), the trend must be an uptrend and the price channel rising; vice-versa for short trades.

- Trend MA Length (0=disabled) - the moving average trend length; if set to 0, the trend detector is ignored
By default, the Channel EA opens long trades only when the channel is upwards (rising), and short trades if the channel is downwards (falling). For an improved way to trend with the trend, the EA can also be restricted to trade following the trend given by this moving average. If the MA on the previous two candles is rising, there is an uptrend; it the MA is falling, it is a downtrend.

- Open Next Trade (bars) - if more than one trades allowed to be opened, the next trade will open only if the trade signal is at least this number of candles away from the last opened trade
- Minimum profit to close OPPOSITE trades - if there are opposite trades on the chart (buys & sells), the expert will start closing them all when their profits reaches this amount
The minimum profit above can be used as a breakeven to close baskets of trades, and it is useful to traders that do not feel comfortable with having baskets of opposite trades on the chart. For this option to be disabled, a very high amount can be entered as Minimum profit. This also accepts negative values, so the trades are closed when their profit reaches a certain loss or higher.
- StopLoss (buys) - the stop-loss for the long trades
- TakeProfit (buys) - the take-profit for the long trades
