Features:

  1. News Filter:
    The PRO version includes a news filter. During important news announcements, it is recommended to pause trading because unexpected price movements can occur. With the news filter, you can manage this effectively.
  2. Daily Profit Stop:
    You can set a daily profit target. Once the target is reached, trading for that day stops. This feature is useful when you want to achieve the minimum necessary profit while reducing risk. For example, if you enter “10,” trading will stop when a profit of $10 is reached (the unit is in your account currency).
  3. Spread Filter:
    If the spread exceeds a set value, trading can be stopped. This helps prevent losses when the spread is large.
  4. Non-Trading Days:
    You can designate specific days as non-trading days. This allows you to avoid trading on days with higher risk, such as month-end or month-beginning days. Additionally, if there are open trades remaining on the specified non-trading days, you can choose to close all of them.
  5. Auto Set Distance:
    In GOLD Edge, the “Distance” parameter sets the grid interval. Different currency pairs may require different “Distance” values. GOLD Edge PRO automatically calculates the grid interval, making it suitable for various currency pairs.
  6. Time to Trade (Additional Option):
    In GOLD Edge, you can set trading hours. In the PRO version, if the specified trading hours are exceeded, all open trades at that time can be closed.
  7. Day of the Week to Trade (Additional Option):
    GOLD Edge allows you to specify certain weekdays for trading. In the PRO version, if it’s a designated non-trading day, all open trades at that time can be closed.
  8. Use Candle Filter (Filter ON/OFF):
    The candlestick filter can be disabled. In GOLD Edge, during grid trading, the decision to trade is based not only on the “Distance” interval but also on the candlestick filter for recovery direction. In the PRO version, you can disable this filter (it’s enabled by default). When disabled, grid trading occurs unconditionally when the set distance is reached.
  9. Use Panel(Panel ON/OFF):
    You can toggle the display/hide settings for the panel. Additionally, there are manual buttons on the panel that allow you to change settings. Use these buttons to show or hide the panel as needed.

            In this case, if the downtrend continues and the D1 RSI breaks below 40, do not trade sell.
            Also, if the uptrend continues and the D1 RSI is above 60, do not buy trades.
            If you want to trade more, reduce Min to 30 and set Max to 70 and you will get more trades.

              Please be careful as it is a high risk setting.
              Please note that the EA version has been updated,
              so the results may not be exactly the same. I don't know what the outcome will be,
              other than the duration of the video.
              This setting is very risky,
              so I recommend that you change "Base Margin for Each LotSize" to $ 6000 or more.
