Martingale doubles lot size after losses, betting on reversal. Anti-martingale doubles after wins, letting winners run. Anti-martingale is generally considered safer as it increases exposure only when winning.

Use small starting lots (0.01), set a maximum lot size limit, trade only ranging pairs (AUDCAD, EURCHF), avoid news events, and use a larger account balance to handle drawdowns.

Range-bound pairs like AUDCAD, AUDNZD, EURCHF, and EURGBP work better for martingale as they tend to revert to mean. Avoid trending pairs like USDJPY and volatile pairs during news events.

A martingale EA is a trading robot that doubles the lot size after each losing trade. The theory is that one winning trade will recover all previous losses plus profit. It's high-risk because account can blow up during extended trends.

Martingale EAs can show consistent small profits for months, but a single strong trend can wipe out all gains and blow the account. Long-term profitability depends on market conditions and strict risk management.
