Beta version of the CANDLESTICK_TA Expert Advisor.
The Expert Advisor opens market positions based on the signals of the candlestick pattern indicator CANDLESTICK_MT5.
When the opposite signal is received, the previously opened position is closed and a position in the opposite direction is opened.
There is a disabled option to set stop levels. The size of the stop levels can be set either manually in the EA settings or automatically. In automatic mode, stop levels will be set along the lines of the indicator, taking into account slippage.
Automatic trading can be turned on/off in the Expert Advisor settings
(Automatic_trading=true/false). With automatic trading turned off, the Expert Advisor can be used as a regular CANDLESTICK_MT5 indicator.
Since this is an experimental version, it is recommended to optimize the Strategy Tester before installing the Expert Advisor on the trading terminal chart.
It is advisable to optimize the “Signal delay (shift back)” parameter, which is responsible for filtering false signals.
Each candle pattern can be individually disabled in the Expert Advisor settings.

Which of the candle signals gives more errors and should be disabled can be identified using optimization in the Strategy Tester.
