Markets are wild, right? Some weeks trend like a rocket, others chop like a blender. That’s why Gecko EA v1.2 MT4 was built—to adapt. Just like a gecko changes with its environment, this EA adjusts its behavior based on trend vs range detection. The goal? Consistent entries with capped risk across different conditions.


It’s 100% free on ForexFactory.cc and powered by YoForex, the parent brand known for transparent backtests, ongoing optimizations, and free lifetime updates. No gimmicks—just a robust tool you can plug in and run.


Pairs & Timeframes: Gecko EA works best on majors like EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, and Gold (XAUUSD). The sweet spots are M15–H1, though presets cover M5 scalping too.
