* **Risk per trade**: **1.0%** of account balance.
* **Recommended Chart**: **`NAS100` on H1** or **`US30` on H1**.

* **Who it is for**: Traders wanting steady equity curve smoothing with zero correlation overlap.

* **Risk per trade**: **0.50%** per market (max open risk = 1.5%).

## 3. Zero-Configuration Auto-Profile (v1.10)[​](#3-zero-configuration-auto-profile-v110 "Direct link to 3. Zero-Configuration Auto-Profile (v1.10)")

The EA has built-in **Auto-Symbol Detection**:

1. When attached to any chart (`NAS100`, `US30`, `GER40`, `USDJPY`, `XAUUSD`), it automatically applies the correct Stop Loss model (Swing Fractal for USDJPY, Candle Extreme for Indices/Gold).
2. It allocates non-colliding **Magic Numbers** per symbol automatically (`108171` to `108177`).
3. An immediate top-left chart banner confirms `Profile: [Symbol Champion Profile]` upon attach. No `.set` files need to be loaded or maintained.
