  • the second hedge order will be opened if the remaining free margin becomes less than the difference: "Limit of free margin..." minus 10;
  • the trailing stop is blocked when there is a "lock", i.e. when there are orders open in both directions, you can change this in the settings in the "Hedging" block;
  • if the margin level falls below 100 %, the EA will not close orders in the "lock" to prevent a stop-out.

THE FIRST LAUNCH OF THE EA



Enter the key = 0 – it is enough to enter the numerical key in the field once so that the EA can operate on a real account. After the key is checked, the EA will create a special file which will be stored in the created folder "General_key" (MQL4 -> Files -> General_key). With each new launch, the EA finds the key file itself and checks it for compliance with this account. You do not need to re-enter the key. The key is common to all of our free advisors and indicators that are installed on this account.


ACCESS TO DEMO ACCOUNT

If you already have a real account and the key to the real account is activated (see above), then to get access to trading on a demo account, you need to: install the EA on the demo account in the "Enter the key" window, enter your real account number and click OK.



If you did everything correctly, the EA settings will appear on the chart, and an entry will appear in the "Log". "Ok! Access is allowed!»




HOT BUTTONS

Hot buttons are designed for quick execution of one command. After pressing the button, its color changes, and the button is blocking, when pressed again, removed the blocking and leads to the original state of the button. Any press of the button EA fixes in its log, you can see the current position of the button on the tab "Experts". You can also unblock the button using the new initialization of the EA (for example, switching to another timeframe). In this case, you do not need to press anything, the blocking is removed automatically.


Close All – closes absolutely all open orders on the current currency pair and removes all pending orders regardless of the magic number.

Close Profit – closes only orders with profit on the current currency pair.

Close Buy – closes only Buy orders on the current currency pair.

Close Sell – closes only Sell orders on the current currency pair.



Block 1. GENERAL SETTINGS


Trading is allowed = true, if you select false, then the EA will no longer open new orders, but all other functions of the EA will continue to work (trailing stop, breakeven, etc.).

Magic number (1 = automatic) = 1 - allows you to specify the EA, which orders (with which magic number) it needs to track. If the magic number = 1, the EA automatically creates the original magic number, which will differ depending on the currency pair and the timeframe on which it is set. Instead of 1, you can set any other magic number, but it must be greater than 1.
If the magic number = 0, then the EA will average orders opened only manually, but will not open new orders. If the magic number is set to -1 (minus one), the EA will average not only its orders, but also all other orders for this currency pair, including those opened manually by the trader, but will not open new orders.

Positions:

  • Long only - open and trawl only buy orders;
  • Short only - open and trail only sell orders;
  • Long & Short - for orders of all directions.


Working timeframe: = «5 Minutes» - selecting the timeframe for opening the first order and for subsequent orders with averaging. Use the mouse to select the desired timeframe from the drop-down menu. If you select "current", the indicators will automatically be adjusted for the period of the chart, which is currently set in the open terminal window.



Initial lot in the series = 0.01 - the size of the first lot.

Take Profit for one order = 8.0 - in points, if there are no open martingale orders.

Minimal profit for martingale = 5.0 - in points, the total average take profit for all open orders with a martingale of the same direction.

Stop Loss = 0.

Use a common stop loss = false - if true, the stop loss for all orders will be at the same level, set for the first order.

Breakeven (when lock) – when there is a small profit, and trailing stop is still not included, the EA moves the stop loss set at breakeven level.

Profit to enable a breakeven = 12 – level of take-profit in points, at which a breakeven is enabled

Level breakeven = 2 – sets the level, at which a stop-loss must be moved: if set to 1, then the position will be closed, when the profit is 1 point; if set to 0, then the position will be closed with the profit of 0 points.

Slippage = 3 - the level of slippage in points on the volatile market it is better to increase.



Block 2. RISK MANAGEMENT


Limit of free margin in % = 60 - the remaining free margin as a percentage. If the free margin remains less than the set limit and if hedging is allowed, an order will be opened in the opposite direction. If hedging is not allowed, the EA will simply stop opening new martingale orders until the free margin is greater than the set value.

By this indicator, you can control how much free funds are left to open new orders. If you have 50% of your free margin left , it means that 50% of your funds are already pledged (margin) and you should think about adding additional funds to your account.

If you set limits on the remaining free margin below 50 %, the EA will not be able to correctly assess the risk before opening a new order and will not be able to warn you in time about the approach of a stop out.

If you set the free margin limit above 80 %, then the EA will often hedge and earn little.

However, if you have a large deposit and the initial lot size is minimal, then you can raise the free margin limits above 80 percent.


Martingale coefficient = 1.5 - martingale multiplier, an increase in the lot volume of the subsequent order by a specified coefficient. If the multiplier is = 1.0, then the EA will only place orders with a lot equal to the lot volume of the first order.

Step between martingale orders = 4.0 - the step (distance) in points between the martingale orders.

Fix the profit for the day = false, if true, the EA will stop its work when the set profit is reached, and will continue its work only with the beginning of a new day.

Daily profit, in the deposit currency = 5.0 - the amount of profit per day in the deposit currency.

Maximum number of open orders = 30 - the maximum number of orders, in one direction, that the EA can open.

Maximum amount of lots = 100 - restrictions on the maximum, total volume of all lots, open orders, one direction.

Close by Equity = false - if true, then allow closing all orders on the current symbol when the Equity reach the set level.

Equity amount, in the deposit currency = 0 - the Equity level in the deposit currency at which all orders on the chart will be closed.



Block 3. HEDGING


Hedge = false - allow the EA to open orders in the opposite direction, hedging or "locking" the current open positions. The hedge will only start working when the remaining free margin is equal to or below the set value in the "Limit of free margin in %".

Indent for the first hedge order = 10.0 - the distance to the first order in the opposite direction. If the remaining free margin is below the set limit, and the distance for the first hedge order is less than the set value, the EA will not open an order in the opposite direction.

Exit from the "lock" by MA = true - exit the "lock" with a profit and only when the price breaks through the moving average, if false, then exit the "lock" when the minimum profit appears, all orders will be closed.


MA period to exit = 55 - the period of the moving average.

MA shift = 0 - the shift of the moving average.

MA method: = Exponential - select the method for calculating the moving average.



MA applied price: = Close price - select the price for calculating the moving average.



Close by balance to "lock" = true - when exiting the "lock", the EA will close all orders when the Equity reach the Balance level that was before the hedging, i.e. the closing will be zero without profit or loss.

Trailing stop at the "lock" = false, in the" lock", the trailing stop is blocked, but if you need to use the trailing stop in the "lock" situation, then select true here.



Block 4. AUTO TREND


Instrument for AT: - select the instrument for AT

  • Close price - at the closing price of the bar, if the closing price is higher than the previous one, then a buy signal if lower, then a sell signal;
  • Moving Average - if the price is higher than the MA, buy signal if the price is lower than the MA, sell signal;
  • Disabled - the AT is disabled.


Timeframe for the AT: = «1 Hour» - Auto Trend timeframe selection. Use the mouse to select the desired timeframe from the drop-down menu. If you select "current", the indicators will automatically be adjusted for the period of the chart, which is currently set in the open terminal window.



Use AT for martingale = false - if false, the AT signals will be taken into account only when opening the first order, if true, when opening all orders, including martingale orders.

Period the trend MA = 21.

Shift the trend MA = 0.

Method the trend MA: = Exponential.



Applied price the trend MA: = Close price.




Block 5. TRAILING STOP



Mode selection: – choosing a trailing stop:

  • Normal - standard trailing stop, starts trail only when there is profit;
  • Total trailing stop - by one (average) stop loss closes all open orders in one direction, including lossing orders;
  • Disabled - trailing stop is disabled.


Virtual trailing stop = false, if true, the EA will protect the profit by using a trailing stop that is invisible to the broker.

Trailing stop level = 16 - the trailing level in points.

Trailing step = 2 - if the profit is 16 points, the trailing will move the stop loss by 2 points.
