Risk and Position Management
The planned risk for each entry is fixed at 0.50% of the current account equity.
The lot size is calculated using the initial Stop Loss distance, the symbol's tick value, minimum and maximum trading volumes, and volume step.

The H1 filter is calculated internally. You do not need to open a separate H1 chart.
Important Risk Notice
The risk percentage is a position-sizing target, not a guaranteed maximum loss.
Price gaps, slippage, spread changes, commissions, swaps, broker execution, and differences in symbol specifications may cause the actual result to differ from the planned amount.
Historical backtests and demo results do not guarantee future performance. Before considering live trading, test the EA in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account provided by your intended broker.

The EA reads the actual timeframe of the chart to which it is attached. The intended configuration is M15.
The H1 filter is calculated internally and does not require a separate H1 chart.
If the EA is restarted during a Trend Episode, it attempts to restore the number of successful entries from the trading history associated with the EA's symbol and Magic Number. If the required history is unavailable, the safety logic may prevent additional entries during that Trend Episode.
Customer support should be requested through the product comments or MQL5 internal messages.
When reporting an issue, include the MetaTrader 5 build number, broker symbol name, chart timeframe, relevant visible input values, and English Journal entries. Remove account numbers and personal information before submitting any records.
