Complete Beginner's Manual & Launch Guide
Welcome to the ultimate automated solution for copying Telegram signals directly to your MetaTrader 5 or cTrader accounts. This software is split into two parts:
- The Desktop App: The brain of the operation. You connect your Telegram here and adjust all your main settings.
- The EA (Expert Advisor): The bridge that you attach to your trading chart. It silently executes the trades sent from the Desktop App. (Note: We intentionally removed the EA's visual panel to make it lightning-fast and distraction-free).
🖥️ Part 1: The Desktop App (Navigation & Settings)
The Desktop App is your command center. Any setting you change here will automatically sync to your EA. Here is a breakdown of every feature you will find in the app:
1. Risk Management Settings
- Risk Mode: How do you want to calculate your trade size?
- Fixed Lot : Always trade the exact volume you specify (e.g., 0.10 lots).
- Fixed Money : Calculates your lot size so you only lose a specific dollar amount (e.g., $50) if the Stop Loss is hit.
- Percent Balance / Equity : Calculates your lot size so you only lose a specific percentage of your account (e.g., 1%) if the Stop Loss is hit.
- Risk Value: The number associated with your Risk Mode (e.g., typing "1.0" for 1% risk).
- ATR Risk Sizing (Volatility Sizing): If enabled, the app automatically shrinks your lot size when the market is extremely volatile (based on the Average True Range), keeping you safer during wild market moves.
- Max Open Trades Per Symbol: To prevent over-exposure, you can set a hard limit. If set to 2, the app will ignore any new Gold signals if you already have 2 Gold trades open.
- Inverse Mode: Flips the signals upside down! If the Telegram channel says "BUY", the EA will "SELL". Perfect if you are following a terrible signal provider!
- Correlation Filter: If you already have a Buy trade open on EURUSD, the app will block new trades on similar pairs (like GBPUSD) so you don't accidentally double your risk on the US Dollar.
- NFA Compliance Enabled: For US clients. Prevents "Hedging" by blocking a Buy signal if you already have a Sell signal open on the exact same pair.
2. Trade Execution & Targets
- Split Orders per TP: If a Telegram signal has 3 Take Profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3), enabling this will split your total lot size into 3 separate smaller trades, each with its own TP.
- Use Pending When Far / Convert on Slippage: If the signal arrives late and the price has already moved far away from the signal's "Entry Price", the EA won't enter a bad market execution. Instead, it places a Limit/Stop pending order at the original signal price.
3. Stealth & Prop Firm Protections
Prop firms use software to detect "copy traders". These settings make your account look like a human is trading.
- Stealth Mode (Hidden SL/TP): Hides your Stop Loss and Take Profit from the broker. The EA remembers the levels and will close the trade instantly when the price hits them, but the broker sees nothing.
- Prop Delay Min / Max (ms): Adds a randomized artificial delay (e.g., 200ms to 800ms) before executing the trade.
- Random Entry Offset: Slightly randomizes your exact entry price and stop loss by a few micro-pips. This completely defeats prop firm footprint-tracking algorithms.
4. Trailing & Break-Even Management
- Break-Even Enabled: Automatically moves your Stop Loss to your entry price once the trade is in profit.
- Trigger: How many pips in profit before it moves the Stop Loss?
- Offset: Do you want to lock in a tiny profit to cover commissions? Set the offset to +2 pips.
- Trailing Enabled: The Stop Loss will follow the current price as it moves into profit, locking in gains.
- Activation: How many pips in profit before trailing begins.
- Distance: How far behind the current price should the trailing stop stay?
Part 2: The EA Inputs (MT5 & MT4)
While the Desktop App controls everything globally, you must attach the EA to your charts to physically place the trades.
When you attach the EA to a chart, you will see a list of inputs. These act as a fallback in case the Desktop App disconnects, but the App's settings will always override these.
- API Url: http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/v1 - This is the secret local tunnel that connects the EA to the Desktop App. Do not change this unless instructed!
- Risk Mode / Risk Value: Backup risk settings.
- ATR Volatility Sizing: Backup toggle.
- Max Positions Per Symbol: Backup limit.
- Inverse Mode: Backup toggle.
- Correlation Filter / NFA Compliance: Backup toggles.
- Max Slippage (Pips): If the market price is drastically different from the signal's entry price by this many pips, the trade is converted to a pending order or skipped.
- Split Orders per TP: Backup toggle.
- Convert to Pending on Slippage: Backup toggle.
- Stealth Mode / Prop Delay / Entry Offset: Backup prop firm settings.
- Auto Break-Even / Trailing Stop: Backup management settings.
Why is there no EA Panel / Dashboard?
To guarantee absolute maximum execution speed and zero chart lag, we completely removed the visual dashboard from the EA. All your visual statistics, channel tracking, and management are handled cleanly inside the Desktop App!
