This page is for anyone who has just installed the EA, or is deciding whether to: what you see on day one, what looks strange but is normal, and how to judge the results.
---
1. Day one
Put USDJPY and EURUSD in Market Watch. Drag the EA onto a gold M30 chart and switch on Algo Trading. The panel shows your balance, the lot mode and the live status of every market. If the market is closed, the panel waits for the first tick.

2. Things that look strange but are normal
- Trades on USDJPY and EURUSD although the EA sits on the gold chart. That is the Yen and Euro layers.
- Days without a trade on one market or another. Each layer waits for its own moment.
- Several same-lot gold positions opened together. That is a Gold Flash basket; it closes as one.
- A basket or a trade closed at a loss. Every position has its own limits.
- No new trades around a major announcement. Open positions carry on.

3. One or two weeks tells you nothing yet
At fixed lot 0.01 the test had 18 losing months out of 130. Judge the EA over months, and compare it with the backtest of the same period.

4. Backtest with your own capital first
Run the EA in the Strategy Tester on the gold chart with the capital and risk level you plan to use (the tester loads USDJPY and EURUSD by itself), and look at the deepest drawdown. Then run it on a demo account of your own broker for a few weeks.
