The idea behind Band-It Trader is to filter a signal with different selectable logics and filters, applicable not only to entry signals, but to group of orders as well.
Settings:
MAX_SLIPPAGE_IN_POINTS - sets the maximum slippage limit in points for placing orders
MAX_SPREAD_IN_POINTS – sets the maximum spread in points, for placing orders
MAX_OPEN_ORDERS_COUNT – the maximal current open orders count limit. Only expert placed orders are counted.
WORKING_TIME_PERIODS – the time ranges during the twenty-four hours, in which expert will place orders. In the rest time, it will manage only the open orders, without making new entries. These time ranges may be more than one.
MIN_DISTANCE_BETWEEN_ORDERS_IN_POINTS – this is the minimal distance between orders in points.
MIN_TIME_INTERVAL_BETWEEN_ORDERS_MINUTES – the minimal time interval, between placing of new orders.
SIGNAL_SOURCE – here Bollinger Bands Indicator could be set as a signal source, or turned off.
BOLLINGER_BANDS_PERIOD – the standard period setting of Bollinger Bands. Valid only if Bollinger Bands indicator is set in SIGNAL_SOURCE.
BOLLINGER_BANDS_DEVIATION – the standard deviation setting of Bollinger Bands. Responsible for the width of Bollinger Bands channel.
BOLLINGER_BANDS_SIGNAL_TYPE – here the type of Bollinger Bands entry signal should be set. There are two possible types of signals:

SIGNAL_FILTER_INDICATOR – here a filter indicator could be set. This is Momentum indicator.
MOMENTUM_PERIOD – the standard period setting for Momentum indicator.
MOMENTUM_TIMEFRAME – the timeframe on which Momentum indicator will operate. Current or higher timeframe recommended.
MOMENTUM_THRESHOLD_IN_PERCENT – this is the threshold of Momentum indicator value in percent for defining a rule what will happen, if value is over or under this threshold.

- GROUP_TARGET_BB_DEFINED – this works only if SIGNAL_SOURCE is set to BOLLINGER_BANDS_INDICATOR. Closes all expert orders when price reaches the opposite BB band.
