Silver Scalper EA — v1.18 (Complete Rebuild)
📋 CHANGELOG
Major updates in this version
- Completely rebuilt code base: removed the ATR-based lot sizing (a source of instability on XAGUSD), replaced with a fixed lot (0.01). Eliminates the abnormal drawdown spikes seen in previous versions during high-volatility periods.
- Configurable "Candle Vision" entry logic: analyzes the closed M5 candle using 5 criteria (color, close position within the range, wick ratio, structure breakout, momentum vs previous candle). An entry is only triggered when the score reaches the minimum threshold (default 3/5) in a dominant direction.
- Real dollar-based trade management: TP, SL, Lock (profit protection) and Trailing Stop are expressed directly in dollar value ($), automatically converted to points based on the symbol's tick value.
- New: London/NY session filter (toggleable): restricts entries to 9:00-17:00 (London) and 13:00-21:00 (New York, server time). Reduces trade volume by ~45% while improving signal quality.
- Single trade at a time: no position stacking, strict money management.
