FAQ:
The most common inquiry.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Please ask the question in a message, not a comment.
Q: Previously, the EA was working well, but in the past few days the EA has not been trading at all. Why?
A:
"RSI Filter" D1 and H1 are "true" by default.
If the RSI exceeds this range, if it is more than the value of "max", do not Buy trade.
In the case of "min" or less, we do not Sell trade.
For example, if the "RSI" exceeds "Max" in an uptrend, it will not be traded because it will not buy and trade even if it is an uptrend.
If you set "RSI Filter" to False or “Min” and "Max" widely, the number of trades will increase, but please note that the risk will increase.
You never know when a sharp reversal in trend will occur if the RSI is out of bounds.
Q: What is the difference between GOLD Edge and GOLD Edge PRO?
A: Here are the features of GOLD Edge PRO

- In grid trading, you can disable the "candlestick filter" (it is enabled by default).
Q: When i change (GRID) lot multiplier into "1.3" why it seems does not have any effect, the lot size for all the GRID is 0.01 .Why?
A:
If the initial lot is 0.01, it is computationally so. 0.01×1.3=0.013 Rounded to 0.01 because the minimum lot is 0.01.
Q: Can GOLD Edge be used with a real account?
A:
yes. Works with real accounts.

VIDEO's demo Setfile (Very Risky)
MT5 Only.
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.
