HFT is an old strategy that didn't work years ago due to slippage, spread and latency and impossible these days as the brokers have installed a plugin since 6 or 7 years after the introduction of the arbitrage EAs the plugin is designed to prevent the price from moving smooth so if you watch closely the price line is moving like a car that just ran out of gas so don't waste your time! because the HFT is designed to place a limit order at a certain distance from the price line once the price is out of channel [BB or others] and keeps modifying the order on every tick till it gets activated the order is usually controlled with a tight SL and trailing the plugin will bring the order to hit the SL most of the times, even if it moved to your favor the tight trailing will close either on breakeven or loss after the commissionHFTs are generally affected by slippage and spread. I don't know of one that is profitable, of course, that doesn't mean there is one in MT4 or MT5.
there could be something that works in the market idk
