May be there is a way, but definitely not the skul of V12, RB26 this sort of super cost averaging EA. When market are behaving, it can flood your pocket very fast, and it only take 1 trend change, your entire account will screw up. But I'm thinking of, if the EA can open a trade without stop loss, and the next trade trigger with proper indicator's signal, we continue stack up the losses while collecting the winners, whenever there is a chance the market come back to the price, or retrace till certain point that the entire account equity is up to certain percentage, with cost averaging technique we should have close all the trades this time. Dont know whether you guys understand what am I sayin.

A few month ago, someone tested V12 or RB26 with a pipstep of 50 hedged and had good results. I tried to find his post but couldn't (I think it was on 10.3 thread).
The suggestion you're making looks like grid trading. I worked a lot on MakeGrid and Bolltrade last year but I stopped as I had the same problem. Maybe safer settings would have worked. I don't know.
