Signal Settings

- Symbol Mapping - If symbol names are not the same in the signal as your broker then you need to map it. GOLD is already mapped to XAUUSD by default so this does not need to be added. The format is ['Symbol From Signal' = 'Symbol in broker']. Then use ',' (Comma) as a separator. For example [BRENT = OIL],[SP500 = US500].
- Delay Taking signals by increasing this timer
- When receiving a signal you can add a few pips to the values to make them unique. Good for prop firms.
- If the Signal contains entry prices on their market orders then enabling this allows you to set a slippage amount and turn the order into a pending if the entry price in the signal is too far away from the current price on your broker.
- If price is outside the slippage amount it will be turned into a pending order.
- Max slippage for the Entry Price. If the price in the signal is too far away from the price on your broker it will either be ignored or turned into a pending (see above)
- How much of the Risk will be allocated to TP1. For example you risk 1% overall. TP1 is set to 50%. TP1 lot size will be half of the risk amount 1%. So will be 0.5%.
- How much of the Risk will be allocated to TP2. For example you risk 5 lots. TP2 is set to 20%. TP2 lot size will be 25% of the 5 risk lots. So will be 1 lot for TP2
- How much of the Risk will be allocated to TP3. For example you risk 1% overall. TP3 is set to 25%. TP3 lot size will be 25% of the risk amount 1%. So will be 0.25%.
- Ignore Signals with no SL - Signals will not be copied if they do not contain stop losses
