📖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 OrderType = 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 LotMethod and RiskValue 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 OrderType = MO (Market Order) for instant execution

1. Prop-Firm / Copy-Trade Management (Magic = 0 Mode)

• Setup:

  • Set Magic = 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 PreserveExistingSLTP setting (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:

  • Enable CancelPendingsAtSessionClose to avoid unwanted overnight pending orders

  • Consider disabling CloseTradesAtSessionClose if you want to hold positions overnight

• Risk Limits:

  • Set daily drawdown limits to comply with prop firm rules

  • Enable UseStrictMarginRejection for more realistic margin behavior

• Trailing Settings:

  • Set TrailingMethod to Trail_Fixed for straightforward trailing

  • Set Trail_DistanceValue to 10.0 (10 pips for intraday scalping)

  • Set Trail_ActivationValue to 15.0 (activates after 15 pips profit)

• Session Control:

  • Enable UseSession1 for your active trading hours

  • Enable CloseTradesAtSessionClose to auto-close at session end

  • Enable CancelPendingsAtSessionClose to avoid overnight exposure

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:

  • Set DailyDrawdownLimit 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
