1. MT4 Expert Advisor "DWMP 1.1"
The DWMP 1.1 strategy
AUTOMATED TRADING SYSTEMS
Last revision: 02.02.2017
DWMP 1.1 is a fully automated trading system, developed by strategy developer and programmer Kay Stoeffler, CTO at
ZefsTech Ltd.
DWMP 1.1 was programmed in MQL4 as a so-called "Expert Advisor" (EA) for the well-established and widely used trading
platform Metatrader 4 and is a product of several years of research, development and optimization.
In the development of DWMP 1.1, as of all other trading systems built by or for ZefsTech, focus was put on achieving long-term
profitability over a wide range of tradable assets (mostly currency pairs) under the occurrence of relatively acceptable
drawdowns.
The results of extensive back tests indicate a consistently profitable performance for the period of at least the last 10 years.
The DWMP 1.1 EA can trade multiple currency pairs in multiple time frames alongside other EAs provided by ZefsTech on one
and the same Metatrader 4 account, being part of a portfolio of diversified trading strategies that distribute risk across a
variety of different assets and strategies and help to compensate losses and minimize drawdowns.
The DWMP 1.1 EA opens a position if price touches a targeted daily, weekly or monthly pivot level or one of the 3 pivot S/R
levels during a retracement. If all the conditions are right, it is expected that price will bounce off of that level and that the mid-
long-term trend will resume.
Various indicators and methods of technical analysis are being used to validate the trend and filter the signals.
RSI is used to check on overbought / oversold condition.
DWMP 1.1 trades quite rarely, and thus, by itself, it generates relatively low returns. It is recommended to use this strategy in
combination with other strategies.

DWMP 1.1 back tests
On the basis of the most recent back test results, DWMP 1.1 is currently set to trade the following currency pairs without any
time restrictions (24/5):
EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD
The DWMP 1.1 strategy should be performing best during healthy trends, when market is not too volatile and price bounces off
of the pivot levels on pull backs.
Poor performance is to be expected during intense price moves against the actual trend, breaking through the pivot levels.
Trend-following strategy, based on daily/weekly/monthly pivot levels.
Trades multiple currency pairs on one account / platform.
Trades in 3 pairs of time frames (entry/pivot&trend): H1/D1, H4/W1, D1/MN1.
Trade frequency (with 3 pairs): approx. 6 trades per month in average.
Lot size parameter can be set for each time frame and each pair individually.
Trading time scheduler (time ranges in which trading is allowed or not allowed can be specified for each pair individually).
Spread limit (can be configured for each time frame individually).
Daily gain target and daily loss limit.
Clients of ZefsTech can apply the DWMP 1.1 strategy to their MT4 account(s) as part of their managed trading portfolio within
ZefsTech's Trade Copying & Portfolio Management System (TCPMS).
The TCPMS allows investors to instantly add and remove trading strategies from their MT4 account(s) and to monitor the
performance, temporary deactivate/reactivate strategies and, if necessary, close all or individual positions via the "MT4
