Version 1.7.0 Released 2026-01-21

Major Release – FxMagnetic Technical Labs is Here

We’re excited to announce the release of FxMagnetic Version 1.7.0, which introduces a brand-new, highly requested product:


New App: FxMagnetic Technical Labs

FxMagnetic Technical Labs combines six powerful strategy tools into one unified Scanner and Autotrader:

  • RSI Trader

  • BB Trader (Bollinger Bands)

  • MACD Trader

  • Parabolic Trader

  • Stochastic Trader

  • Flow Trader (Moving Average strategies)

This follows the same model as FxMagnetic Candlestick Labs, where we previously combined six candlestick-based tools into one streamlined interface.

Scanner Update – Smarter CSV File Naming

  • The Scanner now includes the number of signals and pattern flexibility mode in the file name when saving the trade signals list to CSV. This makes it easier to identify and compare files at a glance.

Access & Upgrade Options:

  • Mastermind Members – Get Technical Labs free of charge

  • ULTRA Plan Owners – Also get it free of charge

  • 🔄 All Other Users – Can purchase Technical Labs as an additional app (annual, monthly, and lifetime plans available).

This upgrade reduces complexity, simplifies workflow, and lets you build, test, and automate multiple indicator-based strategies from one place.


Version 1.6.1 – Released 2026-01-03

Now Available for All Major FxMagnetic Apps
Version 1.6.1 is now live across the complete FxMagnetic Suite, including:

FVG Trader, RSI Trader, BB Trader, MACD Trader, Parabolic Trader, Stochastic Trader, Flow Trader, Candlestick Labs, HHM Trader, Pinbar Trader, Engulfing Trader, STAR Trader, Onyx Trader, and Phoenix Trader.

This update brings all enhancements and fixes introduced in FVG Trader v1.6.0 to every FxMagnetic app.


Scanner Update – Smarter CSV File Naming

  • The Scanner now includes the number of signals in the file name when saving optimization results to CSV. This makes it easier to identify and compare result files at a glance — especially when reviewing multiple strategy tests.


This is a light but helpful update to streamline strategy analysis and improve your optimization workflow.

Be sure to update to v1.6.1 to keep all your tools in sync and take advantage of the latest improvements.


Version 1.6.0 — Released 2025-12-16

Version 1.6.0 introduces a powerful new app, multiple strategy upgrades, advanced trade filtering options, and precision controls for better automation and signal control.


New App: FxMagnetic FVG Trader

FxMagnetic FVG Trader is the newest addition to the FxMagnetic family.
It allows traders to build, optimize, and automate strategies based on Fair Value Gap (FVG) logic — a high-probability concept used by many institutional traders.

  • Available as an optional purchase

  • FREE for FxMagnetic ULTRA Plan owners and Mastermind members


New Trade Filters (Available for All Users)

  • RSI Rebound (Return from Overbought/Oversold)
    Looks for signals when RSI pulls back from extreme levels — a great filter for timing reversals.

  • RSI Trend Direction
    A directional filter using RSI:
    ▸ Only allow Buy trades when RSI > Param2
    ▸ Only allow Sell trades when RSI < Param2

Note: These two filters now support a new Third Setting, allowing more flexible logic — this feature will expand to other filters in future versions.


New SL/TP Type: Last Swing High/Low

A structure-based stop-loss and take-profit method that uses the most recent swing high/low for better alignment with price action.
Ideal for traders who want SL/TP levels that reflect actual market structure, not just indicator values.


New Risk Control: Max Trades Per Day

You can now limit how many trades a strategy can place per day.
Once the set number of trades is reached, the strategy will pause for the rest of the day.
0 = unlimited


Scanner Updates – v1.6.0

  • New Optimization Goal: Highest Expectancy (R-Multiples)
    When optimizing strategies, you can now pick results based on expectancy measured in R-Multiples, helping you focus on setups that deliver consistent reward over risk.


Autotrader Updates – v1.6.0

  • Improved MCL (Max Consecutive Losses) Display
    Autotrader now includes the Magic Number when showing current losing streaks in the Journal, making it easier to track which strategy triggered the info — especially when multiple Autotraders are running.


Version 1.5.2 — Released 2025-11-17

Version 1.5.2 has been rolled out across the full FxMagnetic lineup, including: RSI Trader, BB Trader, MACD Trader, Parabolic Trader, Stochastic Trader, Flow Trader, Candlestick Labs, HHM Trader, Pinbar Trader, Engulfing Trader, STAR Trader, Onyx Trader, and Phoenix Trader.


Hull Shield 1.1.0 Reprogrammed (Histogram Mode)

Hull Shield has been fully re-engineered to use histogram mode and now appears in a separate indicator window under the chart.
Previously it was drawn as a line, which occasionally caused a rare repainting issue and could lead to inconsistent backtest and live results.
To use Hull Shield with Scanner/Autotrader 1.5.2, please download and install Hull Shield 1.1.0.


Scanner & Autotrader Updates

SL/TP System Improvements

1. Clearer Naming

  • The old PSAR SL/TP mode has been renamed to PSAR (Last Candle).
    It uses the PSAR value from the most recent closed candle and is now named to better reflect its behavior.

2. New SL/TP Mode — PSAR (Last Flip Point)

A new, smarter PSAR-based SL/TP method has been added:

  • PSAR (Last Flip Point) scans backward to locate the most recent PSAR flip (trend reversal) and uses the first PSAR dot of the new wave.

  • This corresponds to the most recent structural swing high/low and provides a stronger, more reliable SL/TP placement.

This creates a more robust, price-structure-based stop-loss option for advanced strategies.


SLTP Parameter 1 (and default –1 behavior)

All SL/TP Types now support a secondary tuning parameter called SLTP Parameter 1.

How the parameter behaves depends on SL/TP Type:

  • ATR mode:
    SLTP Parameter 1 = ATR Period

  • PSAR modes:
    SLTP Parameter 1 = PSAR Step

  • Fixed mode:
    SLTP Parameter 1 is not used

Default behavior (value = –1):
When SLTP Parameter 1 is set to –1, FxMagnetic uses the recommended defaults:

  • ATR → 14

  • PSAR → 0.02 (for all FxMagnetic apps)
    Note: FxMagnetic Parabolic Scanner is special — it automatically uses the PSAR Step defined in the main panel to ensure matching values.

  • Fixed → not used


Improved Input Handling

A small improvement was added to make the Scanner more resilient when users enter values below the minimum allowed settings in the panel inputs.


Autotrader-Only Updates

New: Close & Pause Trading on MCL Breach

A new safety feature has been added to protect accounts when losing streaks occur.

This feature includes 3 settings:

  1. Close & Pause Trading On MCL Breach (on/off)

  2. If MCL Reaches X — number of consecutive losses allowed

  3. Close And Delete Orders? — choose whether to:

    • close all open trades and pause trading, or

    • simply pause trading and leave existing trades active

This makes it easier to protect accounts from spiraling drawdowns and meets strict prop-firm risk rules.


Exit Time Reliability Improvements

The “Exit Time” logic has been refined to ensure more reliable and consistent trade closing at user-defined times.


2025-09-05 – FxMagnetic Version 1.5.1

RSI Trader, BB Trader, MACD Trader, Parabolic Trader, Stochastic Trader, Candlestick Labs, HHM Trader, Pinbar Trader, Engulfing Trader, STAR Trader, Onyx Trader, and Phoenix Trader.

This update includes a new trade filter and multiple bug fixes to improve signal handling and app stability.


New Trade Filter Added

  • Bollinger Band Breakout Filter (Inverse Logic)
    Allow BUY trades only when price is above the Upper Bollinger Band
    Allow SELL trades only when price is below the Lower Bollinger Band
    This is the opposite of the previous filter and is great for traders who want to catch momentum breakouts instead of reversals.


🧠 Scanner Updates – v1.4.3

  • Pips-to-Points Label Fix
    ▸ Some apps still showed “pips” in their info labels, which caused issues with the Autotrader.
    ▸ All labels now display in points for full compatibility with the new standard.

  • CSV Export Bug Fixed (Symbol Naming)
    ▸ Fixed an error where optimization results failed to save correctly if the symbol name contained two dots, e.g., EURUSD...
    ▸ Export now works smoothly across all brokers.


🤖 Autotrader Updates – v1.4.3

  • Buy/Sell Button Display Fix
    ▸ Resolved a timing issue where the Buy/Sell button (introduced in v1.4.2) did not appear reliably under certain conditions.
    ▸ The button now shows up immediately when a valid signal is active and no trade has been executed.


2025-07-03 – FxMagnetic Version 1.4.2

Now Available for All Major FxMagnetic Apps
Version 1.4.2 has been released across the complete FxMagnetic Suite, including:

RSI Trader, BB Trader, MACD Trader, Parabolic Trader, Stochastic Trader, Candlestick Labs, HHM Trader, Pinbar Trader, Engulfing Trader, STAR Trader, Onyx Trader, and Phoenix Trader.


Scanner Updates – v1.4.2

  • Fixed Exit Time Bug
    ▸ Resolved an issue where trades were sometimes closed early even when the Daily Exit Time feature was not enabled (i.e., left empty).
    ▸ Exit logic now works exactly as configured.


Autotrader Updates – v1.4.2

  • New Feature: “Buy/Sell Button” for Manual Signal Execution
    ▸ A button now appears next to the current signal if no trade has yet been placed for it.
    ▸ Clicking it allows you to manually trigger a trade with your current risk per trade, and it will be:

    • Opened with proper SL/TP

    • Assigned the Autotrader’s magic number

    • Fully managed by the Autotrader afterward
      ▸ Perfect for jumping into strong signals you missed earlier — especially if the price has moved in your favor.


2025-06-26 – FxMagnetic Version 1.4.1

Now Available for All Major FxMagnetic Apps
Version 1.4.1 has been released across the full FxMagnetic lineup, including:

RSI Trader, BB Trader, MACD Trader, Parabolic Trader, Candlestick Labs, HHM Trader, Pinbar Trader, Engulfing Trader, STAR Trader, Onyx Trader, and Phoenix Trader.

This update builds on all the improvements introduced in v1.4.0, with important refinements and a powerful new feature for trade management.


🧠 Scanner Updates – v1.4.1

  • Duplicate Parameter Removed
    ▸ Cleaned up the settings by removing a mistakenly added duplicate parameter: MaximumConsecutiveLosses.


🤖 Autotrader Updates – v1.4.1

  • New Parameter: Leave Remaining Position Without TP
    ▸ When using multiple positions per signal, you now have full control over the last remaining position in the trade bucket.
    If enabled: The final position runs without a take-profit, allowing it to be closed by an opposite signal or manually.
    If disabled: The final position will have a TP set according to the Take Profit Multiplier, just like the other positions.
    ▸ Previously, leaving the last position without TP was the default — now it’s fully customizable.

  • Improved Handling for Low-Balance Situations
    ▸ If the first position in a multi-position trade fails due to insufficient funds, the Autotrader will now skip the rest of the positions in that group.
    ▸ This prevents partial or inconsistent execution and adds a layer of safety when managing limited capital.


2025-06-23 – FxMagnetic Version 1.4.0

Starting with version 1.3.5, the following FxMagnetic apps now come with a single download that includes both the Scanner (Indicator) and the Autotrader:

HHM, Pinbar, Engulfing, STAR, Onyx, and Phoenix

Previously, each of these apps had two separate downloads — one for the Scanner and one for the Autotrader — resulting in a total of 12 download links.

Now, each app is packaged as one unified ZIP file (6 total downloads), and inside that file, you’ll find both the Scanner and the Autotrader.

🔹 If you see that the Autotrader download link is disabled, don’t worry — it’s intentional.
🔹 Just download the main app (Scanner), and you’ll find everything you need in that single package.

This change simplifies the download process and ensures you always have the matching Scanner and Autotrader version for each app.

Autotrader 1.3.3 Updates

  • NEW: “Failsafe Guard” SL/TP Recovery Mechanism – This advanced safety feature ensures that if a trade opens without a Stop Loss (SL) or Take Profit (TP) due to broker execution delays or other issues, the Autotrader will:

    1. Retry setting SL/TP as soon as conditions allow.
    2. Close the trade immediately if it breaches the intended SL/TP levels before the protection can be applied.
      This extra layer of security helps prevent unprotected trades and unexpected losses.

    • This allows users to control whether Stop-Loss moves to Break Even for remaining positions after the first Take-Profit is reached.

These updates refine existing functionality, improve stability, and offer greater control for advanced trading strategies.

  • Algorithm Improvement: Implemented an algorithm making the indicator perform computations much faster. This means faster backtests and optimizations.
  • New Parameters:
    • PickBestOptimizationParamsBasedOnX = ProfitPips/WinRatio. This allows users to choose how the indicator must pick the best-performing strategy: by the highest profit or by the highest win rate.
    • MaximumWeeksToAcceptSettings – this parameter helps users filter out optimization results based on how long they took to generate signals. If you set MaximumWeeksToAcceptSettings=30, the indicator will only accept strategy parameters that produce the chosen number of signals within 30 weeks. If a strategy takes more than 30 weeks to generate the required signals, it will be ignored.
    • MinimumSignalsPerWeek – this parameter lets you choose strategies based on how many signals they generate each week. If you set MinimumSignalsPerWeek=2, the system will only consider strategies that produce at least 2 signals per week on average. Strategies that generate fewer than 2 signals per week will be ignored.
    • ShowLastClosedSignalInfo – this parameter allows users to choose to display the last closed signal information on the panel. By default, it is hidden.
    • ShowCurrentSignalInfo – this parameter allows users to choose to display or hide the current signal information on the panel. By default, it is visible, and this is a must if you are using Autotrader in the “Indicator Sync” mode on the same chart. If you hide current signal information from the chart and have the Autotrader in the “Indicator Sync” mode running on the same chart, it will fail to follow the signals from the indicator.
  • Live Signal Display: Resolved an issue where new signals were not shown in live mode when the trend indicator was enabled.

Released FxMagnetic™ Autotrader – 1.2.6

  • We rearranged the parameters in the Inputs section for more convenience.
  • Account Balance Simulated: This new function is useful when you are running multiple Autotraders on the same account and want to make them pretend like they are trading on a certain account size. If you put $5000 there, the Autotrader will function like it is trading on a $5000 account and use that for lot size calculation when risking % per trade.
  • Close and Pause Functionality: Added functionality for closing and pausing based on Time, Equity, and WinRate.
    • Close and Pause on Equity Drop – useful when trading on prop firms or if you want to protect your funds in general.
    • Close and Pause on Win Rate Drop – useful when trading a strategy where the Win Rate is very sensitive, usually with a negative risk-to-reward ratio.
    • Close and Pause on Time – This is useful when you want the Autotrader to stop trading at a certain time. For example, close all trades at the end of the trading session on Friday and pause trading until Monday.
  • Trend Filter Fixes: Fixed issues related to trend filters when the Autotrader is running in the “Independent” mode.

Released FxMagnetic Phoenix™ Indicator – 1.2.5

  • FxMagnetic Phoenix™ scans for Spinning Tops & Doji patterns.
  • The new algorithm has been implemented, making the indicator perform computations much faster.
  • The information panel on the right of the chart shows signals per week and signals per day.
  • The information panel on the right of the chart shows the broker (account server), currency, and timeframe.
  • The information panel on the right of the chart shows how many weeks ago the 1st signal appeared.
  • Added ShowLastClosedSignalInfo parameter, which allows you to show or hide the last closed signal-related info on the panel.
  • After the optimization in finished, the indicator also prints simulation numbers for the worst win rate and worst net profit. This gives you insight into whether the ‘reverse’ strategy is worth trying.

Released FxMagnetic™ Autotrader – 1.2.5

  • Trend filters were added to the EA so you can use them when running EA in ‘Independent Mode’.
  • Added new parameter StopTradingWhenWinRateDropsBelowX, which allows you to force the EA to stop opening trades if the Winning Rate on the indicator drops below a certain level.

2024-02-07

Released FxMagnetic™ Autotrader – 1.2.4

  • Added Trailing Stop functionality.
    • Trailing Stop Value (Pips) – this is where the user can set when to activate the TS function. TS function works like a ratchet. If you set TSV to 50 pips, it means the EA will start TS once the trade gets into a profit of 50 pips. A stop-loss will follow 50 pips behind as the market price moves but doesn’t go back if a price comes back.
    • InstantTrailingStop – the ITS works a bit differently than the regular TS. The EA activates the ITS immediately and will make the stop-loss follow behind as the market price moves in your favor but doesn’t go back if a price comes back. With ITS, a Trailing Stop Value determines how many pips behind the stop loss has to trail.
  • Autotrader now displays the Magic Number (or your custom text) at the top right corner. This makes it easier for you to distinguish strategies.

Released FxMagnetic Onyx™ Indicator – 1.2.4
