📖 Examples & Workflows

Examples & Recommended Workflows

  1. Quick Manual Entry (Manage Mode)
  • Setup: Set TC to MANAGE (click TC button until "MANAGE" displays)
  • Entry Selection:
    • Choose Entry Mode = LINES
    • Choose Order Type = PO (Pending Order)
  • Execution:
    • Draw a horizontal line at your entry price
    • Convert to pending order (dashboard button or right-click helper)
    • Open the trade panel for that pending order
    • Set SL/TP using panel inputs or draggable lines
    • Press Place to submit the order
  • Lot Size: Your Lot Method and Risk Per Trade settings determine position size automatically
  1. Day-Trader Live Execution (Intraday Scalping)
  • Setup:
    • Set TC = MANAGE for manual control
    • Set Entry Mode = CANDLE for bar-based entries
    • Set Order Type = MO (Market Order) for instant execution
  1. Prop-Firm / Copy-Trade Management (Magic Number 0 Mode)
  • Setup:
    • Set Magic Number to 0 in EA settings to enable Trade Management Mode for external/manual trades
    • This allows the EA to manage trades you place manually or copy from another source
  • Preservation Settings:
    • Enable the preserve-existing-SL/TP settings, if available, to keep your manually set SL/TP levels
    • EA will manage break-even, trailing, and partial closes without changing your entry levels
  • Session Control:
    • Use the pending-order session close option, if available, to avoid unwanted overnight pending orders
    • Keep the close-trades-at-session-end option off if you want to hold positions overnight
  • Risk Limits:
    • Set daily drawdown limits to comply with prop firm rules
    • Enable Strict Margin Rejection (Backtest Realism) for more realistic margin behavior
  • Trailing Settings:
    • Set Trailing Stop Method to Pips for straightforward trailing
    • Set Distance to 10.0 for a 10 pip trailing distance
    • Set Activation to 15.0 to activate after 15 pips profit
  • Session Control:
    • Enable Session 1 for your active trading hours
    • Use the close-trades-at-session-end option if your build exposes it and you want automatic session-end closure
    • Use the pending-order session close option if your build exposes it and you want to avoid overnight pending orders
  1. Automated Signal + Manual Overrides (Hybrid Approach)
  • Normal Operation: TC = AUTO to let signal orchestration run automatically
  • Manual Intervention:
    • If you need to intervene on a specific trade:
      1. Switch TC to MANAGE (stops new signals)
      2. Open the trade panel for the position you want to modify
      3. Adjust SL/TP, add trailing, or close position via panel buttons
      4. Switch TC back to AUTO to resume signal detection
  • Use Case: Great for when you want automation but need to override specific trades based on news or price action
  1. Risk-Limited Session (Daily Drawdown Protection)
  • Setup:
    • Enable Daily DD Control and set Max Daily Loss % in EA settings
    • Once daily drawdown limit is hit, dashboard automatically enters PAUSED state
  • Behavior:
    • All trade execution blocked
    • Existing trades remain open (or can be auto-closed based on settings)
    • Dashboard displays "PAUSED - DD LIMIT" status
    • Manual reset required or waits for next trading day
  • Prop Firm Compliance: Essential for staying within daily loss limits
