6. INDICATORS:

a) Gold Stuff Indicator:

https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/53797?source=Site+Profile+Seller

Trading Strategy:
The indicator is specifically designed for gold but can also be used on forex pairs. The indicator does not
repaint or lag. It can be used to see the trend on higher time frames like Daily, then H4 and H1 charts
and then trade with the trend on smaller time frames. Use any of the EA’s to buy only or sell only if you
want to follow the trend according to the indicator dire

Gold stuff indicator with Trend Wave above.

b) Trend Scanner Indicator:

https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/85226?source=Site+Profile+Seller

Trading Strategy:

Trend Scanner scans market trends from Multi-Symbols and Multi-Time frames and displays it on a
movable panel on the chart. It uses Gold stuff indicator for analysis. Features include alerts and e-
mail, as well as push notifications. The trader can select multiple pairs of his choice for display.

Trend Scanner is a great tool to see the direction of the trend and can be used for manual trading or
EA trading by allowing only buy or sell orders according to the trend.

10
 c) Strong Support Indicator:

https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/78820?source=Site+Profile+Seller

Trading Strategy:

Support and resistance levels have long been a powerful tool for market analysis. The Strong Support
indicator plots support levels based on local price minima, and resistance levels based on local price
maxima.

7. DRAW DOWN REDUCTION SETTINGS:

All of these EA’s has a draw down reduction setting. Herewith an explanation of the technique:

11
 If the first buy position at 0.01 lots went negative and the martingale grid has reached the 8 th position, it will
wait for the market to retrace until the 8th position goes in the money for the same amount as the 1st
position is negative. The EA will then close both the 1 st and 8th position simultaneously and therefore
cancelled the loss out at plus 3% more profit than the loss, leaving the rest of the trades open to either hit
TP or if the market reaches the 8th trade again it will repeat the same action. This strategy is to lower the
draw down while the EA is waiting for the market to retrace and hit TP of the whole basket.

See example here:

Illustration of the results after the 1st and 8th positions were closed:

8. DYNAMIC DISTANCE SETTING:

All of these EA’s have the following setting to prevent a big draw down during high impact news or
high market volatility.

These settings will protect your account if you get large candles like these on the chart for example.

12
 Fix distance: The distance between orders
This value sets a fixed Distance (gap) between orders for the entire Series
Order dynamic distance: From which order will the dynamic distance be applied in above case it will be
the 4th order This value sets the order number of Series where Dynamic Distance will begin.
Dynamic distance start: The starting value for the dynamic distance
This value sets the distance between First Order and current market price, where the Dynamic Distance
will begin.
Distance multiplier: The dynamic distance multiplier
This value sets the multiplication factor for increasing the Distance (gap) between orders of a Series

It is recommended that you test this in the strategy tester to optimize your settings.

9. TRAILIING STOP FUNCTION:

All of these EA’s have the following setting which can help you to lock in profits or limit losses as a trade
moves favorably. Trailing stops only move if the price moves favorably. Once it moves to lock in a profit,
it does not move back in the other direction. This tool is very useful when price moves strongly in your
favor and you want to lock in your profits before the price falls back.

In the above screen shot the trailing will start at 100 pips (1000 points) in the money and will then move
every 10 pips (100 points) as market goes in your favor. So if the trade is 110 pips in the money the
trailing will already have locked in 10 pips. The trailing will follow in 10 pip steps until the price reverses
and hits the trailing stop and close the trade in profit.

10. GENERAL KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION:

a) How to install mt4 terminal and create more than one instance for all your accounts.

Create different folders on your hard drive and name them – for example use your account numbers:

Download the mt4 terminal from your broker’s web page in your computer

Locate the setup file and double click on it:

13
When you double click on your mt4 .exe file select “Settings”:

Click on “Browse” and select the right path and location for your mt4:

After you have installed your mt4 terminal, go to the terminal file, right click and click on “Create
shortcut”. Rename the short cut to your account number and drag it on your desktop

14
Now you can just click on the appropriate icon to open your mt4 for that account. You can also right click
on the icon and click on “Pin to taskbar”.

b) Clean logs in Mt4:

Log files will eventually grow to consume an unnecessarily large amount of disk space. To guard against
this, you should periodically take administrative action to remove log files that are no longer in use by
your application. Watch this video that explains how to do it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xr-xEeBJoc

15
c) Gmt time:

The EA’s are coded for gmt+3. The time setting has nothing to do with your location time, the EA looks
at the broker time. Check in your market watch what the time is when market is alive, then work out
your broker's gmt by comparing it to your local gmt, or ask your broker. For example if your broker is
gmt +2 and you want the EA to start trading at 11h00, the starting of London session (gmt+3) like in time
schedule below, then your broker is 1 hour behind and you should add 1 hour. So it will be 1200 as
starting hour.
See the following Forex Market Sessions to guide you:

d) Martingale

The theory behind a Martingale strategy is if the first trade goes negative the system will open another
trade at bigger lot size to bring the TP closer and carry on like that adding trades at a certain distance
apart from each other until the market retraces and close the whole basket in profit. In a ranging market
the system can make a lot of profits but in a trending market your account can get stuck building up
bigger and bigger trades until the market retraces.

This can lead to a big draw down so you have to use good money management and start with a small lot
size.

16
 e) Hedging:

If you allow buy and sell your EA will hedge. This involves opening the opposing position to a current
trade. For example, the EA will open both buy and sell positions and handles each one until it takes
profit.

f) Risk :
Read the Risk Management document here:
https://orangeforex.ru/?page_id=472

Here is a link to a risk calculator that enables you to calculate the required margin, pip value and swaps
based on the instrument, as well as the leverage and the size of the position.
https://www.xm.com/forex-calculators/all-in-one#forex-calculator

Always make sure you have more than enough margin in case of unexpected news. The suggested risk is
normally 0.01 for each $1000 or more with a leverage of at least 1:500.

It is recommended that you do not change the “Use Money Management” setting to “true”. Keep it on
“false” unless you really have a big account. Consider the fact that you are trading a martingale strategy
and that you will need enough margin because of the multiplying of the lots when the market goes
against you. See the risk recommendations under each EA as discussed in this document.

All traders have to take responsibility for their own decisions. In trading, losses are part of the norm, so
a trader must learn to accept losses as part of the process. Losses are not failures. However, not taking
a loss quickly is a failure of proper trade management.

Don’t trade with money you cannot afford to lose, don’t borrow money to trade. Don’t get greedy and
increase your lots to make money faster! Remember that even when joining a signal service, the trader
is not responsible for your losses it is your money, don’t blame others for your decisions!

g) Testing and Optimization of Expert Advisors:

It is recommended that you learn to test your EA in the strategy tester to optimize it and to get an idea
of the draw down and profits you can expect with your settings. There are a lot of video’s on Youtube
about the procedure of how to back test an EA. To get high quality backtests it is recommended that
you use tick data.

Here you can also get information of how to test and optimize and EA:

16. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

a) My EA does not want to trade:

Follow the next steps:

18
 Make sure you tick “Allow live trading” when clicking on the EA face. EA face must be a “smiley
face” and make sure your “AutoTrading” button is green.

 Make sure you have logged in using the master password and not the investor password
 Make sure the minimum spread in your EA settings is not smaller than your broker’s average
spread otherwise the EA won’t trade.
 Make sure the lot size is acceptable for the broker, some cents accounts have a minimum lot
size of 0.1 while the minimum lot size in your settings could be 0.01
 Make sure there is enough money in the account for the lot size, if you do not have enough
margin the EA won’t trade

b) Do I really need a vps?

 Performance: A VPS can execute your trades more quickly than your computer can because it is
much faster transmitting the orders. The result is that you experience less of a delay and less
slippage. As we all know, slippage costs money, sometimes a lot of it, so this is a great way to
reduce your losses. ... This is very important if you use a scalper like Antivirus. However all
these EA’s needs secure online connectivity 24 hours a day. Don’t be penny wise pound foolish,
you cannot try to save money by not using a vps, you will lose more money at the end!

 Security: The best VPS providers will continually monitor performance, functionality and
security. A Forex VPS will be maintained to ensure it’s protected from intruders, attacks and
breaches – they’ll take some of the most robust security measures. In cases of a power outage
or internet connection issues, a VPS will ensure your trades are still being executed.

 Accessibility: Using a VPS is perfect if you travel a lot or move around a lot for work. Using a VPS
will allow you to access it remotely – meaning you can monitor your trading from anywhere in
the world, on most devices. Most, but not all brokers have smartphone-friendly trading
platforms, so using a VPS will allow you to manage your account like normal.

c) Does the vps need to be near the broker?

If you are trading a scalper like Antivirus then it might be necessary to have a vps near your
broker as the EA will have a very tight take profit.

d) What is default?
Default means use the settings as it was original coded in the EA, just drag the EA on the chart,
don’t change anything except adjusting your lot size according to your risk. It is recommended

19
 that you do not use “Use Moneymanagement”.

e) What is the purpose of the Magic Number?

The Magic no. is there to identify your EA. For example if you run 2 different EA's on the same
pair and they have different magic numbers they will both be able to trade on the same pair, but
will not do it if both EA’s magic numbers are the same. If they have the same magic no. the one
will trade and the other one not, they need to have different magic numbers - it is just a way to
identify which EA is running and so that both EA’s can operate separately. You can run an EA
with the same magic number on different pairs, like magic no. 111 of Gold Stuff will for example
run on EURUSD; GBPUSD and USDCAD simultaneously.

f) Autolot:
Autolot function means the EA will increase lot size as your account grows, for example, if you
set the auto lot size to 1000 with an initial lot of 0.01, then when your account reach $2000, your
initial lot will be 0.02

g) How to calculate pips in gold?

Forex pairs and gold has a different pip calculation:
https://www.forex.in.rs/calculating-pips-for-gold/

h) Where can I see the calendar for big news announcements?

https://www.forexfactory.com/calendar
Click on the clock at the top right to set the time to your local time:

i) Will the EA continue to control the trades if terminal restarts?

As long as the magic numbers are the same the EA will continue to manage your trades after an
interruption of the mt4 terminal. Even if you install the EA on a new terminal, the EA will
manage your trades providing it has the same magic number.

j) Which EA is the best EA?

Every trader has different taste and risk appetite. Study all the EA’s on the list of the author and
speak to the traders in the telegram group before you make a decision.
https://www.mql5.com/en/users/vasiliy_strukov/seller
There are several set files to choose from which you can find in the set file link in this document.
You can use the strategy tester to test the EA’s but unfortunately you will have to buy them if
you want to run it on demo. There are also a lot of information in the telegram group.

k) How many licenses do I get?

You get 5 “activations”, 1 for each IP address or computer/vps. If you have more than one
account/terminal running on one computer/vps then you can just copy and paste the installed

20
EA from the Expert folder to the other terminals on the same computer, there is not a limitation
for using it on the same IP address.
After you have copied and pasted the EA file to the data folder in the other terminal, you can
either restart the terminal or right click on “Expert Advisors” and click on “Refresh”. You will see
the EA will appear in the Expert Advisors menu.

However if you want to use the same EA on another computer you will have to install it again
from your “market” tab and will then use your second activation.
