The documentation is quite self explanatory regarding this.

Use them in the same way as globally declared variables when you need a value retained after an EA or indicator has been removed or the terminal is shut down or timeframe changed on the chart to which an indicator is attached.

The most important thing is to make sure that they are given individual names. You could use magic number and Symbol in the name. It could cause problems if more than 1 EA or indicator were trying to access and change the same Global Variable (of the client terminal).

//Global Variables
string  _lotGV;

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

int OnInit()
{
    //Global Variables

    _lotGV = _prefix + _Symbol + " _lotGV";
  
    if ( GlobalVariableCheck( _lotGV ) == true )
    {
        GlobalVariableGet( _lotGV );
    }   //---if Close
    else
    {
        GlobalVariableSet( _lotGV, _lotSize );
    }
}

#GlobalVariable - Closed

I solved like below code.

//--------------------------------------------

_lotGV = _prefix + _Symbol + " _lotGV";

if ( GlobalVariableCheck( _lotGV ) == true )
{
    _lotSize = GlobalVariableGet( _lotGV );
}   //---if Close
else
{
    GlobalVariableSet( _lotGV, _lotSize );
}

Special thanks to @Alain Verleyen @Keith Watford

#Lot Reset - Open

I have not any idea about 'Lot Reset' Button. some describe: And I need to when I click reset button lot size turn to default lot size value. ( e.g lot size value 1 )
So, I need good advice with example.

( also I am still researching )

All the best to you.

It may help if you describe what you are referring to.
