⚙️ Best Settings for Beginners
Leave everything default EXCEPT:
- AutoCleanup : true (keeps chart clean)
- CleanupAfterBars : 30-50 (removes old lines)
- SendAlerts : true (get notifications)
That's it! The indicator works perfectly with default settings.
💰 Position Sizing (Important!)
Never risk more than 1-2% per trade!
Example with $10,000 account:
- Risk per trade: 2% = $200
- Signal shows 30 pip stop loss
- Calculate lot size: $200 ÷ (30 pips × $10/pip) = 0.66 lots
Use a position size calculator or MT5 built-in calculator
✅ Pre-Trade Checklist (30 Seconds)

- ☑️ Risk-reward ratio is at least 1:1.5
- ☑️ Not during high-impact news (check economic calendar)

If ALL boxes checked → Trade is valid ✓
