Hi,

thanks for the ea, I noticed that the lowest lot could be used is 0.1, so small accounts can't use it, kindly fix.
Also, kindly show the tp, sl and the trailing options in the input.
thanks a lot.

Hi, thanks a lot for your feedback! 😊

Regarding position size — the EA doesn’t work with fixed lots.
It automatically calculates the trade volume based on the Risk per Trade you set (in account currency, e.g. 10 €, 50 $, etc.).
This method was chosen intentionally — it’s simpler and clearer for users, since you just decide how much money you want to risk per trade, and the EA does the rest.

About TP, SL and trailing — these are all applied internally and automatically, based on volatility (ATR).
They’re not manual inputs because the EA is designed to be as simple and user-friendly as possible, especially being a free version meant to work right out of the box, without needing complex configuration or optimization.

If you still don't understand how it works, here is the post where I explain it. Configuration

Thanks again for testing Granite Pick XAU and for your thoughtful feedback! 🙌

For the lot size, even after reducing the balance to 10$, and changing it in the input its still opening 0.1
for the inputs, showing at least the (tp & sl) is very important, as people risk/reward appetite are very different, and it will still simple ea.
thanks

Hi again! 😊

You’re absolutely right about the minimum lot size — thanks for catching that!
It should indeed allow 0.01 lots, not just 0.10. That’s a small bug, and I’ll fix it during this week in the next update.

Regarding the TP and SL — let me explain a bit how this EA works:
Granite Pick XAU doesn’t use random or arbitrary values. It’s the result of a long statistical process, testing thousands of combinations to find the best balance between entry logic, TP and SL behavior.
Those parameters were selected through extensive Walk Forward and Monte Carlo validations, which means the EA’s performance and robustness depend on keeping them exactly as they are (Would it still work if you change TP and SL? Yes — but the results would differ from the statistically optimized behavior, and profitability would likely be lower).

That’s why they’re built-in, not editable: to ensure it runs exactly as validated and shown in the attached results.

Appreciate your understanding and your detailed feedback — I’ll make sure to include the 0.01 lot fix very soon! 🙌
