Undvik att underskatta hur viktigt det här är. Viktigt - Några av de ovanstående 106 inställningarna kan ändras flyga, vilket innebär att FGM egenskaper fönster kan öppnas medan roboten är handel och vissa ingångsinställningar ändras utan att ta bort EA först som kan ändras on-the-fly är vanligtvis de som inte kommer att ändra den grundläggande handelsstrategin FGM v5 är en stor uppgradering så äldre version Strategifiler måste justeras en gång laddad MT5 - Här är ett utmärkt brev av Daniel Fernandez författare för CurrencyMag till MetaQuotes som ger dig en bra bild av var MetaTrader är för närvarande.

Vi rekommenderar starkt MT4 till ECN-mäklare. Jag är en introducerande mäklare till IC-marknader i Australien. Min referral länk. Bygg - ForexGridMaster är bäst handlade på MT4 build 670 och upp senast den 9 september, Full licens - ForexGridMaster Full version är licensierad till ditt kontonamn och kan handlas på så många demo och konton som riktiga pengar som yo Du gillar så länge som varje konto namn matchar licensnamnet Det finns 4 filer som måste placeras i din MT4 handelsplattform kataloger för att ForexGridMaster ska vara redo och kunna handla filen är installerad i din MT4 plattform mql4 experter katalogfilen är Installerad i din MT4 plattform mql4 bibliotek katalog licensfilen är installerad i din MT4 plattform mql4 bibliotek katalogfilen är installerad i både dina MT4 plattform mql4 filer och tester filer kataloger Nästa måste din MT4 plattform stängas och startas om för FGM att arbeta med ForexGridMaster v5 1 och stödjande filer som du äger, du är helt oberoende av oss Naturligtvis är vi här för att hjälpa närhelst du behöver det och vi uppmuntrar dig att delta i vårt forum Konton eller mäklare kan ändras när som helst utan något från oss, så länge som namnet på de olika kontona förblir detsamma som det namn du gav oss för licensiering. Du har rätt till utan kostnad för alla buggfixar och uppgraderingar w i version 4 Trial licens - ForexGridMaster Trial-versionen är exakt densamma som fullversionen, förutom att det har ett licensutgångsdatum som är inställt att löpa ut minst tre månader från den dag vi skickar dig FGM Trial-versionen är licensierad till ditt namn och kan handla så många demokonton som du vill, men det kommer inte att fungera på riktiga pengar konton 5 Konto valuta - FGM kommer att fungera med någon konto baserad valuta USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, AUD, etc 6 Decimala platser - ForexGridMaster automatiskt upptäcker om din mäklare använder 2, 3, 4 eller 5 decimaler för prisnoteringar Såsom till exempel kan MainTakeProfitPips ställas till 17 pips oavsett om pristalen använder 2, 3, 4 eller 5 decimaler. I fallet med EURUSD som ett exempel på 5: e decimals prissättning, är fjärde plats decimalen pipen och den femte en bråkdel av en pip som heter en punkt. Om EURUSD flyttas från till dess har den flyttat 1 pip eller 10 poäng om den rör sig Från och med dess har det flyttat 1 10: e pip eller 1 poäng För valutor med 3 decimaler, till exempel USDJPY, om den flyttas från till så har den flyttat 1 pip eller 10 poäng och om den sedan flyttat 1 10: e pip eller 1 poäng 7 ECN - ForexGridMaster fungerar på ECN anslutna MT4-återförsäljare-mäklareplattformar som värd IC Markets i Australien En ECN-anslutning erbjuder normalt de bästa spridningarna och genomförandet När du överväger mäklare att välja, vänligen kolla med oss ​​för uppdaterade rekommendationer 8 Ställa in förändringar - När du startar en ny strategi eller Göra ändringar i en befintlig strategi, förutom inställningar som kan ändras, är det bäst att först ta bort ForexGridMaster och ta bort alla kartobjekt högerklicka på diagrammet, välj Objektlista, välj alla objekt genom att välja en objektlinje och Använd sedan ctrl a för att markera alla och använd sedan Delete till höger. När du har raderat objekt kommer alla öppna transaktioner eller väntande beställningar kvar i diagrammet inte längre att styras av FGM och de måste hanteras separat manuellt och eller genom att använda ForexTradeManager för att stänga många eller alla beställningar snabbt. Testa alltid noggrant på ett demokonto eller Strategi Tester tills du är övertygad om att du vet vad som gör vad FGM v5 1 september 9, 2014 Sidan 3 av 28.4 9 Tid - ramar - ForexGridMaster-strategier är inte tidsramberoende, vilket innebär att du kan handla vilken FGM-strategi du gillar när som helst och den enda skillnaden blir hur bra du kan se handelsåtgärden. Min rutin är att ForexGridMaster alltid handlar på M1 tidsramen bara och jag öppnar ett extra diagram eller två av samma valutapar på samma konto för att visa andra tidsramar. De väntade beställningarna och öppna affärer kommer också att visas på extra diagrammet. Tidslinjen kan ändras on - Flyga på samma diagram som ForexGridMaster handlar, men det gör att skärmens storlek på CloseRun-staplarna beror på MT4-objektets visningsbegränsningar. Viktigt - Vid backteststrategier i Strategy Tester måste du alltid välja M1 ti me-frame 10 Slutbeställningar - När öppna och eller pågående order utlöses för att stängas samtidigt, med någon av CloseRun-inställningarna och även av ForexTradeManager, tar det tid för öppna affärer och väntar på order att stänga. Priset rör sig så resultat Kommer inte att vara helt korrekt De slutliga resultaten kommer att vara mer eller mindre än vad målet var Under normala marknadsförhållanden är skillnaden relativt liten om någon Om du använder scalping-strategier är det bäst att se din latens från din FGM-robot till Mäklarservern är låg, 0 till 50 ms är bäst 11 Många beställningar - Ju mer öppna affärer och väntande beställningar som finns på diagrammen, desto större chanser kommer det att finnas förseningar, särskilt om latens av handelsexekvering är mer än 50 ms Inte alla mäklare är samma. Mängden tekniker som berörs, din mäklare och deras server, deras MT4-miljö, datorn din ForexGridMaster handlar från, banken matar till mäklare, Internet, etc. och även i sin spädbarn exekverar MT4 bara en rad koden åt gången per diagram, så det kan hända att glitcher uppstår och i början är det viktigt att hålla ett vaksamt öga på din MT4-plattform när det handlar om dina strategier, åtminstone tills du Vet att allt kommer att fungera på ett tillförlitligt sätt Vi rekommenderar starkt att du handlar dina strategier och strategier från andra på ett demokonto först och testar dem också på Strategistestaren på minst ett år med M1-data eller kryssar data, så länge det tar dig för att bli mycket bekant och säker på hur alla ForexGridMaster-ingångsinställningar fungerar för de strategierna När du börjar handla riktiga pengar, startar små MT4-mäklare inte lika och olika MT4-mäklareplattformar kan ge olika resultat av olika skäl. Men ForexGridMaster programmering är den bästa industriella styrka kvaliteten och kan hantera arbetsstrategier mycket pålitligt under en obestämd tid 12 FGM EA smiley face - När ForexGridMaster är tr ading och allt är bra, kommer du att se en liten smiley face icon placerad längst upp till höger om valutaparet diagramfönstret Du kan klicka på det smiley face för att öppna FGM s egenskaper fönstret Ibland är dock informationen som skrivs ut på diagrammet strax under Smiley face valts av misstag och FGM öppnas inte för dess egenskaper fönster, speciellt om du har valt en större teckenstorlek för diagramkommentarerna och statistikutskrift. Annars högerklickar du bara i något klart område på diagramskärmen och väljer Expert Rådgivare och sedan Egenskaper I en nödsituation när FGM inte kan nås för att ändra dess egenskapsinställningar eller inte kan avlägsnas av någon anledning, klicka på Expert Advisors-knappen på verktygsfältet ovan för att inaktivera det eller helt enkelt stänga kartfönstret för att ta bort FGM If Nödvändiga, alla öppna affärer och väntande beställningar måste sedan stängas manuellt eller genom att använda ForexTradeManager. Smileyytan blir röd när FGM är aktiv och egenskapsfönstret är inte tillgängligt whi Det är rött 13 strategifiler - När du skapar strategier för ForexGridMaster med hjälp av de ingående inställningarna som beskrivs nedan kan de sparas som förinställda filer i din MT4-plattforms experter förinställda katalogstandard, så att du kan öppna ForexGridMaster när du vill handla den. på ett diagram och sedan Ladda den förinställda filen från fliken Inmatningar. FGM-förinställda filer kan också sparas och delas med andra. Vi namnger förinställda filer så att vi kan känna igen vad strategin är. Till exempel, om det heter Audnzd det är BuySell CounterTrend-strategin för Audnzd med MainGridSpacing 7 pips, MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 70, MainMaxOpenSellTrades 70, MainLotSizePercent 0 0001, MainTakeProfitPips 21, CloseRunProfitPercent 1 och CloseRunLossPercent 50 14 Hävstångseffekt - Vissa mäklare tillåter så mycket som 500 1 hävstångseffekt på sina konton Detta innebär att FGM kan handla en fullständig standard mycket 100.000 använder endast 200 på marginalen, vilket är utmärkt för FGM, speciellt om du letar efter hög vinst. ng strategier behöver mycket flexibilitet för att kunna uthärda minst 30 maximalt flytande eget kapitalutjämning. Var säker på att du vet vad du gör men lika hög hävstång kan också vara farligt. Hävstångseffekten på det konto som FGM är handel kan ses i Experts flikposter, vanligen en linje eller två efter att FGM har initierats 15 Dela strategier - filer kan delas direkt med andra handlare eller på vårt forum Vårt mål är att många företag ska skapa, backtest och optimera tillförlitliga vinnande strategier för alla Vänligen besök och delta i vårt forum som tillsammans. Jag tror att vi kan utveckla goda lönsamma och tillförlitliga FGM-strategier. FGM v5 1 september 9, 2014 Sida 4 av 28.5 16 Backtestning - FGM ska alltid använda M1-data eller ticka data för backtestning som ingen annan tidsram kommer att fungera. Se den bakåtprovningshandbok som medföljer ditt FGM-köp för mer information. I History Center Toppmeny Verktyg Historikcenter använder nedladdningsknappen längst ner till vänster för att ladda ner M1-data från MetaQuotes MT4 programutvecklare Korrekt backtest sparar massor av tid och sorg och kan vara spännande, ungefär som att spela ett bra videospel Om du inte är backtestning är det som att springa mot kanten av en mil hög klippa med en blindfoldig på ForexGridMaster v5 1 Expert Advisor Input Inställningsbeskrivningar TOC ForexGridMaster handlar två typer av grids, en MainGrid och eller HedgeGrid, antingen i kombination med varandra eller självständigt. I kombination kombinerar HedgeGrid-inställningarna helt frånsett MainGrid-inställningarna förutom att CloseRuns utlöses av Nettoresultat - och förlustberäkningarna för både MainGrid - och HedgeGrid-branscherna kombineras 1 EANumber 528 - EAN Den här ingången gör det möjligt för varje instans av ForexGridMaster att hålla reda på sina egna affärer och beräkningar som är skilda från andra fall av FGM, andra EAs och även andra affärer placerade manuellt , på samma valutapar eller olika valutapar i samma handelskonto Varje FGM måste köras av sig själv på sitt eget diagram och det S EANummer måste vara unikt annorlunda än varje EAN-nummer som används av andra EAer på andra diagram. ForexGridMaster s ingångsinställningar påverkar endast handelsorder som är associerade med EANnummer för den FGM-förekomsten. Detta skiljer sig från ForexTradeManager, vars inställningar kan påverka alla handelsorder placerade manuellt eller med andra EAs Det spelar ingen roll vilken EANumber du väljer förutom att siffran är begränsad till 9 siffror När du slutar handla din strategi är det bäst att ta bort ForexGridMaster från diagrammet och när du börjar med en ny strategi, var noga med att ändra antingen EANummeret eller radera objektet så att aktuella körstatistik på diagrammet återställs ordentligt för en ny början och också kommer roboten inte att påverkas av någon historisk handelsaktivitet som inträffade tidigare. Denna inställning kan inte ändras on-the-fly 2a SetFileName gbpusdbsct-5s-1tot-21lsp 001ip-11crpp SFN Vad du skriver in här för denna inställning visas på tabellen till höger Du kan skriva något här, men m ost som är användbart för mig är ett namn som anger strategins huvudinställningsvärden Namnet gbpusdbsct-5s-1tot-21lsp 001ip-11crpp-0 34 berättar för mig att det handlar om GBPUSD, det är en MainGrid BuySell CounterTrend FixedCenter-strategi med dessa värden som ställs in MainGridSpacing 5 pips, MainGridSpacingStep 1 pip, MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 21 trades och MainMaxOpenSellTrades 21 trades, MainLotSizePercent 0 001, MainLotSizeIncreasePercent 11 och CRProfitPercent 0 34 CloseRun-inställning Dessa inställningar kan ändras på flykt 2b SetFileInfo FGM-Default - SFI Du kan också skriva något här Denna inställning kan ändras flyktig 3a MainGridActive true - MGA Om den är inställd på true, aktiveras alla MainGrid-inställningar Om falskt är alla MainGrid-inställningar inaktiverade. Denna inställning kan inte ändras utan att behöva ändras 3b MainGridFixedCenter true - MGFC Vid handel en MainGrid FixedCenter-strategi kommer FixedCenter att vara det aktuella marknadsbudpriset när FGM initierar Kör 1 Men om du har aktiverat antingen OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice Eller OpenSellAtCurrentPrice inte båda samtidigt, kommer FixedCenter att vara hälften av MainGridSpacing-pipsvärdet ifrån och exakt mellan de första köp - och säljplatserna i MainGrid När du har konfigurerat dina strateginställningar och är redo att handla FGM, klicka på OK-knappen och din FGM-strategi kommer att börja Kör 1 på nästa kryssrutan. FixedCenter kommer att förbli samma MainGrid FixedCenter-pris under körtiden och resten av gallret utvecklas baserat på det fasta priset. Det finns 5 inställningar i MainGrid FixedCenter Inputs avsnitt som kan användas vid handel med MainGrid FixedCenter-strategi När MainGridFixedCenter false - MGMC Det betyder en MovingCenter Det ursprungliga MainGrid MovingCenter-priset kommer att vara det aktuella marknadspriset. Resten av gallret utvecklas baserat på det MainGrid-initiala MovingCenter-priset, även om det non-fixedcenter kommer att röra sig Eftersom vissa mäklare inte tillåter att beställningar ska placeras inom 5-20 pips mer eller mindre av marknadspriset, beroende på din MainGridSpacing, kan de ursprungliga rasterpositionsluckorna bredvid MainGrid-centret inte fyllas med väntande beställningar tills nuvarande pris har flyttats bort tillräckligt långt för att tillåta det. Under tiden fylls rutnätplatserna längre ut från MainGrid-centret när och där det är möjligt enligt det redan etablerade initiala MainGrid-centreringspriset och dina andra inställningar för inmatningsinställningar En MovingCenter kommer att ändras för att alltid vara det aktuella rörliga marknadspriset när du handlar antingen ett köp eller ett säljnät eller ett BuySell-nät kombinerat med BuySellOverlap sant och eller BuySellOffset Men om du handlar ett BuySell-nät och BuySellOverlap false, kommer MovingCenter att centrera sig och förbli mellan köp - och försäljningsorderna och flyttas vid behov för att alltid vara mellan köp - och säljorder. Köp och sälj pågående order kommer att vara placerad som FGM v5 1 september 9, 2014 Sida 5 av 28.6 nära som möjligt till nätcenter enligt din MainGridSpacing och eller MainCenterZonePips set Ings Se exempel omedelbart nedan Denna inställning kan inte ändras utan att flyga MainGrid FixedCenter och MovingCenter-scenarierna TOC Trading en MainGrid FixedCenter-strategi, köp och sälj pågående beställningar hålls åtskilda från varandra, köper på ena sidan av FixedCenter-priset och säljer Å andra sidan tillåts ingen överlappning. När FGM handlar om en MainGrid BuySell Trend-strategi, kan endast väntande Köp stopporder läggas över FixedCenter-priset och endast väntande Sälj stopporder kan placeras nedan Om FGM handhar en MainGrid Buy Trend HalfGrid Som ett annat exempel kan endast väntande köpstopporder läggas över FixedCenter-priset som kommer att vara halva MainGridSpacing-värdet under den första öppna köpordern, oavsett om den är öppen eller öppen om handeln är en MainGrid Buy CounterTrend HalfGrid-strategi, så väntar bara köpgräns order kan placeras under FixedCenter-priset. Handla en MainGrid MovingCenter-strategi med GridStartPriceUp 0 0 och GridStartPriceDown 0 0 både inaktiverade, Kör 1 kommer att börja med det aktuella marknadspriset, men med ett MovingCenter kommer det alltid att flytta som marknadsbudsprisförändringar under Run 1 For Run 2, kommer start MovingCenter igen att vara det omedelbara marknadspriset efter avslutat Run 1 Uppföljning körs när CRAutoRestart true fortsätter på samma sätt Att handla en MainGrid MovingCenter-strategi på eurusd som ett exempel, med GridStartPriceUp och eller GridStartPriceDown 1 3195, kommer Run 1 att börja i framtiden när den nuvarande marknadspriset stiger med 30 pips till eller ner till For Run 2, om CRAutoRestart sant är start MovingCenter det omedelbara marknadspriset efter avslutat Run 1 som kommer att ligga på ett annat centerpris än var Run 1 började Follow-Up Runs fortsätter samma sätt När GridStartPriceUp och eller GridStartPriceDown något värde mer än 0, gäller det bara för Kör 1 och inte några uppföljningskörningar. Båda är omedelbart inaktiverade när en utlöses och MainGrid öppnas och de kan på Återaktiveras igen med manuell ingrepp i början för att utlösa Körning 1 Dessa inställningar kan ändras flyga om ingen av dem ännu inte har triggats 4a HedgeGridActive false - HGA Om den är inställd på standard falsk då alla HedgeGrid General Ingångar och HedgeGrid Order ingångsinställningar nedan ignoreras Om Hedge True är alla HedgeGrid-inställningar nedan aktiverade enligt hur de är inställda. Den här inställningen kan inte ändras utan att flyga 4b HedgeGridFixedCenter true - HGFC Inställningen kommer att fungera ungefär samma som MainGridFixedCenter sant och vad som helst HedgeGrid väntande beställningar är placerade kommer HedgeGrid skapad att förbli fast under körningens längd När en CloseRun uppträder automatiskt och CRAutoRestart sant kommer en ny MainGrid och HedgeGrid Run att startas vid det omedelbara aktuella marknadspriset efter alla tidigare Run-order är stängda En viktig skillnad mellan en HedgeGrid med en FixedCenter och en MainGrid med en fast Centret är att MainGrid-antalet rader för rasterpositioner för pågående beställningar, inklusive antingen OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice eller OpenSellAtCurrentPrice omedelbar marknadsordning, fastställs av MainGrid-inställningarna MainMaxOpenBuyTrades och MainMaxOpenSellTrades, medan HedgeGrid-orderna är fasta och begränsade mot HedgeGrid-centret av ytterkanten Av HedgeCenterZone men inte begränsat att gå ifrån HedgeGrid centrum där de kan placeras längre och längre ut enligt HedgeGridSpacing, eftersom priset fortsätter utåt tills antingen en CloseRun eller en marginalrestriktion uppnås eller FGMs interna begränsning av max öppna nätpositioner av 500, vilket innebär 250 positioner på Köpsidan och 250 på Säljsidan Om HedgeGridFixedCenter är falskt HGMC betyder det att en MovingCenter HedgeCenterZone kan flytta på samma sätt som MainCenterZone rör sig när man handlar ett MovingCenter-nät HedgeCenterZone kommer att flytta när HedgeGrid köper och säljer flytt och ingen HedgeGrid beställningar som är öppna eller väntar kan uppta en Position inom HedgeCenterZone, oavsett var det är HedgeCenterZone kommer att flytta i riktning mot pris och stänga HedgeGrid-order om de stängs inom den aktuella Körningen och kommer att förbli mellan HedgeGrid köp - och säljorder. Till exempel om HedgeCenterZonePips 100 och HedgeGridSpacing 20 och första MovingCenter är det ser ut som det här hedge buy 2 stoppet på HedgeGridSpacing hedge buy 1 stopp vid HedgeCenterZonePips kommer att flytta upp eller ner som HedgeGrid köper och säljer flytta säkring sälja 1 stopp vid HedgeGridSpacing 20 FGM v5 1 september 9, 2014 Page 6 Av 28,7 säkringsförsäljning 2 stopp vid och då prisflyttningar ner till då kommer HedgeGrid att se ut som denna häckköp 2 stopp vid flyttning från när häckköp 1 stopp förflyttas HedgeGridSpacing häckköp 1 stopp vid flyttning ner när säkringsförsäljning 1 stängt HedgeCenterZonePips flyttas ner 20 pips hedge sälja 2 öppnas --- vid 2: a hedge sälja öppnas som pris flyttas ner hedge sälja 1 stängt ---- på HedgeTakeProfitPips 30 nått häck sälja 3 stopp vid p laced när hedge sälja 1 stängt och då priset flyttas hela vägen tillbaka upp till och med kommer HedgeGrid att se ut som denna hedge buy 3 stopp vid hedge buy 1 stängt ---- på HedgeTakeProfitPips 30 nått hedge buy 2 öppnade --- när Pris flyttade härifrån HedgeCenterZonePips flyttade tillbaka 20 pips häck sälja 3 stopp vid placerad när häckköp 1 stängt HedgeGridSpacing häck sälja 2 öppet på 2 häck sälja öppnat nådde inte ta vinst och sedan fortsätter priset att gå upp från att säga då HedgeGrid kommer Nu ser ut som denna hedge buy 4 stop på hedge buy 2 stängt ---- på HedgeTakeProfitPips 30 nått hedge buy 3 öppet vid öppet när priset flyttade upp från HedgeCenterZonePips flyttade tillbaka 20 pips hedge sälja 3 stopp vid flyttat upp 20 pips MainGrid Allmänna ingångar Dessa inställningar gäller endast för MainGrid som din strategi handlar 5 MainBuy-1Sell-2BuySell-3 3 - MB eller MS eller MBS Den här ingången avgör om handelsorderna från ForexGridMaster är antingen alla köporder Köp-1, alla försäljningsorder Sälj - 2 eller Både köp och sälj order BuySell-3 Om du väljer standard BuySell-3 och väljer att handla ett Trend-rader med order för att få vinst i riktning mot prisutvecklingen, kommer köporder-order att placeras ovan gridcenter och sälja stopporder nedan Om BuySell-3 är valt och du vill handla ett CounterTrend-orderord, kommer köporderorderna att placeras under gridcentralen och sälja gränsorder ovan. När du handlar ett BuySell-nät måste HalfGrid också väljas för att du handlar ett halvt nät med köporder med ett halvt rader av försäljningsorder. Alla nätorderingar är placerade på priser för valutapar. Denna inställning kan inte ändras utan kostnad 6 MainTrend-1CounterTrend-2 2 - MT eller MCT Denna ingång Bestämmer huruvida MainGrid av order som handlas kommer att vara en trend eller en CounterTrend-strategi. En Trend-strategi placerar köper stannar ovanför nätcentret. Köp trend eller säljer stannar under gallercenter. Sälj trend eller båda BuySell-trend. En CounterTrend-strategi placerar gränser under gallercentret Köp CounterTrend eller sälj gränser ovanför nätverket Sälja CounterTrend eller båda BuySell CounterTrend Den här inställningen kan inte ändras on-the-fly 7, MainFullGrid-1HalfGrid-2 2 - MFG eller MHG Den här ingången avgör om MainGrid-orderen placeras lika fördelade på Båda sidor av nätcentret när den är inställd på FullGrid för köp eller sälj nät, eller endast en sida när den är inställd på HalfGrid för köp eller sälj nät. BuySell-nät måste ställas in till HalfGrid eftersom du handlar en HalfGrid av köporder med en HalfGrid av försäljningsorder Denna inställning kan inte ändras på flyga Här är några grundläggande exempel FGM v5 1 september 9, 2014 Sida 7 av 28.8 1 Du vill handla ett Köp Trend-nät till vinst på pris som trender uppåt Du kan välja FullGrid som kommer att placera pending buy stop orders above either a Moving or FixedCenter price, and pending buy limit orders below, or you can choose HalfGrid which will place pending buy stop orders above a Moving or FixedCenter price, but no buy limits below Using HalfGrids when trend trading in one direction only will lessen the number of accumulating open negative trades due to long price runs or spikes in the opposite direction of the trend you are trading Depending on your MainGridSpacing and how strong the trending market is, you may experience 30 or more less losing trades being opened by retracements opening your buy stops that are following the price downwards from above 2 You wish to trade a Buy CounterTrend Half grid when you expect price to drop and turn back up This will place a HalfGrid of pending buy limit orders below either a Moving or FixedCenter, but no buy stops above 3 You wish to trade a BuySell CounterTrend grid on price that is ranging When you trade a BuySell strategy you must choose HalfGrid which will place pending sell limit orders above either a Moving or FixedCenter price, and pending buy limit orders below either a Moving or FixedCenter price 8 MainGridSpacing 5 - MGS This input determines the distance in pips from each pendi ng trade order to the next pending trade order of the same type buys or sells in your trading grid There may be broker restrictions as to where the placement of the first pending orders are placed If the MainCenterZonePips setting is used then the first pending orders start at the exact edge of the CenterZone and MainGridSpacing applies from there MainGridSpacing will not work when both OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice true and OpenSellAtCurrentPrice true This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 9a MainMaxPendingBuyOrders 2 - MMPBO This input determines both the number of pending buy limit or buy stop orders that your strategy will place at grid start and the maximum number of pending buy orders permitted at any one time When trading a FullGrid, this input must be set to an even number such as 2, 28, or 50, not 1, 27, or 49 If either or both MainMaxOpenBuyTrades and MainMaxOpenSellTrades below are set to a number other than the default 0, then MainMaxOpenBuyTrades and MainMaxOpenSellTrades will determine the limit of open trades allowed, and the number of pending orders will be controlled accordingly If the number of open buy or sell trades reaches their limit, but then decreases one or more open trades close , then ForexGridMaster will resume opening pending orders to match FGM also limits the total number of open pending orders to a maximum of 50 This setting can be changed on-the-fly to a higher value but not lower 9b MainMaxPendingSellOrders 2 - MMPSO This operates exactly like above but applies to pending sell orders 10a MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 21 - MMOBT When set to the default 0, this input is ignored When set to a number value, this input limits the number of open buy trades at any one time to that number Manual trades or other EAs with a unique EANumber can be traded on the same currency pair and or other pairs on other charts on the same account, without them being affected by this setting Most brokers limit the total number of orders placed in an account and some don t This setting can be changed on-the-fly except when MainGridFixedCenter true When MainGridActive true and MainGridFixedCenter true, if MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 20 for example then the total number of MainGrid buy positions slots that can be occupied by buy orders on the MainGrid buy side is fixed at 20 Any trade orders occupying any of those 20 positions can be opened, closed and replaced within a Run according to values set for other FGM inputs MaxOpenOrders Buy Sell limit is b MainMaxOpenSellTrades 21 - MMOST This operates exactly as the one above but applies to sell orders 11 MainCenterZonePips 0 - MCZP When set to the default 0, this input is ignored When set to a number of whole pips greater than 0, then a MovingCenter or FixedCenter MainCenterZone, the pips depth of the value set, is created at and centered by MainGrid center This CenterZone separates the placement of buy and sell orders, by the set value For example, if MainCenterZonePips 30, then no MainGrid orders pending or open can occupy a position inside that 30 pip CenterZone If a MovingCenter strategy is traded MainGridFixedCenter false , then the CenterZone can move as the position of the buys and sells move, however no MainGrid orders open or pending can occupy a position within the CenterZone no matter where it is HedgeGrid orders are the exception, meaning that HedgeGrid orders can be placed inside of the MainCenterZone which is possible but not normal , the same as MainGrid orders can be placed inside of the HedgeCenterZone which is common to do When trading a HalfGrid, say a Buy Trend strategy, then the MainCenterZone space is half what MainCenterZonePips is set to This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly When trading a MovingCenter strategy, the MainCenterZone moves in the direction of price and closing orders if orders are closing within the current Run, and will remain between the buy and sell orders and will move as needed FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 8 of 28.9 to always be between the buy and sell orders However, when trading a FixedCenter strategy, then the CenterZone will remain fixed in place for the duration of the Run, keeping buys and sells separated When trading a BuySell strategy and BuySellOverlap true, then MainCenterZonePips 0 must be set to disable the input MainCenterZonePips cannot be changed on-the-fly Here are examples of how the CenterZone works with a FixedCenter or MovingCenter a FixedCenter --- MainGridFixedCenter true, MainGridSpacing 15, MainCenterZonePips 100, MainTakeProfitPips 35, MainMaxPendingBuyOrders 2 Looks like this buy 2 stop at buy 1 stop at CenterZonePips Remains fixed in place until the Run closes sell 1 stop at sell 2 stop at In the above example the CenterZone is fixed between and within the current Run So if price moves down as an example, and sell 1 is opened at and then closed at by reaching its MainTakeProfitPips 35, the CenterZonePips 100 will simply remain from to until the Run closes b MovingCenter --- MainGridFixedCenter fals e CenterZonePips 100, MainTakeProfitPips 35, TotalPendingBuyOrders 2 Looks like this buy 2 stop at buy 1 stop at CenterZonePips Initial CenterZone placement which will move up or down as buys and sells move sell 1 stop at sell 2 stop at When price moves down to then the MainGrid will then look like this buy 2 stop at moved down from when buy 1 stop moved down buy 1 stop at moved down from when sell 1 closed CenterZonePips moved down 15 pips sell 2 open at opened when price moved down sell 3 open at opened when price moved down --- sell 1 closed at opened at and MainTakeProfitPips 35 reached sell 4 stop at placed when sell 2 opened sell 5 stop at placed when sell 3 opened If price then moves all the way up from to say then the MainGrid will now look like this buy 4 stop at placed when buy 2 opened buy 3 stop at placed when buy 1 opened buy 2 open at opened when price moved up here FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 9 of 28.10 buy 1 open at opened when price moved up here CenterZonePips rem ains in same place sell 2 open at 2nd sell opened that did not reach take profit sell 3 open at was already open sell 4 stop at placed when sell 2 opened sell 5 stop at placed when sell 3 opened If price then moves up more from to say then the MainGrid will now look like this buy 5 stop at placed when buy 3 opened buy 4 open at opened when price moved up here --- buy 1 closed at opened at and MainTakeProfitPips 35 reached buy 3 open at opened when price moved up here buy 2 open at was already open CenterZonePips moved back up 15 pips sell 4 stop at moved up when buy 1 closed and CenterZone moved up sell 2 open at sell opened that did not reach take profit sell 3 open at was already open sell 5 stop at moved up when CenterZone moved up 12a OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice false OBACP - When set to the default false, this setting is disabled When set to true, a buy order is opened immediately at current price when FGM is initiated and all other pending grid orders placed during the Run are adjusted to that price position for the grid chosen In other words, the immediate opened buy order is part of whatever grid values are chosen, and determines where the MainGridSpacing starts from When MainCenterZonePips is set to a value, both OBACP and OSACP cannot be set to true, only one of the two settings can be set to true As an example if OBACP true and a buy is opened at say and MainCenterZonePips 20 and we have a BuySell Trend grid trading, then the CenterZone is placed from to and the grid operates from there as it does normally, the first pending sell order position being set at to continue with the example If HedgeCenterZonePips is set to a value, say 400, then the center for the HedgeCenterZone will be set at OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice can be changed on-the-fly but it s important to understand how that works In fact it is a unique additional feature for scalping and also hedging or simply weighting trades at a reversal point after a long grid stretch It enables the ability to add more open buys and or sells at anytime without disturbing the current grid, and those buys and sells having the same EANumber are included in the grid for calculations and CloseRuns For example, when OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice true, every time FGM is removed from the chart and then restarted on the chart again and the OK button clicked, it opens a new buy at current price, which is in addition to picking up the grid from where FGM left off Also OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice true can be changed to false on the fly so it doesn t open a buy when you remove it from and then restart it on the chart again Then once on the chart again it can be changed on the fly again to true so that on the next Run and follow-up Runs from there, it will open a buy, but without opening a buy right then on the current Run when OK is clicked Experiment and see for yourself how it works 12b OpenSellAtCurrentPrice false - OSACP This operates exactly as the one above but applies to sell orders 13 MainGridOrderReplacement true - MG OR If true then when an order has closed it will be replaced when possible to do so within the same grid run If false then each order within a grid run will only run once GridOrderReplacement operates the same as HedgeOrderReplacement, but only for the main grid as does the other only for the HedgeGrid This setting can be changed on-the-fly FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 10 of 28.11 MainGrid Order Inputs These settings apply to individual trade orders within MainGrid, which may also be modified by FixedCenter settings 14a MainLotSize MLS This input sets the minimum value for lot-size per trade order Most brokers allow a minimum lot-size of 0 01 which is 1 100th of the standard 100,000 lot-size, or 1,000 using USD as example and so 0 01 is the default LotSize value Some brokers set their minimum lot-size 10 times higher, to 0 10 10,000 in which case FGM will display an error message saying that you will need to change this input to LotSize 0 10 before FGM can continue If HedgeGridActiv e true and HedgeLotSize 0 01, then same as when MainLotSize 0 01, it also would need a reset to Either a fixed MainLotSize can be set for all trade orders at the beginning of the GridRun, or MainLotSizePercent along with minimum MainLotSize The lot-size determined by either of those two choices can also be automatically increased during the GridRun by using any of the MainGridFixedCenter lot-size increase options MainLotSize can be changed on-the-fly, however it will affect new pending orders only, not pending orders already in place 14b MainLotSizePercent MLSP When a value is set here, then the lot-size traded is determined by the account s free margin multiplied by the value set in this input divided by 100 The lot-size traded will increase or decrease according to this calculation when every new pending order is placed when MainGridFixedCenter false, or at the start of and for the duration of each new Run when MainGridFixedCenter true However, it will not be applied if the calculate d value is less than the MainLotSize value set above, in which case the lot-size set will be the minimum size for each new pending order placed until MainLotSizePercent calculates a larger lot-size than what MainLotSize is set to The exception to this is when you set MainGridFixedCenter true and all trade lot-sizes within the MainGrid are pre-determined regardless of how many pending orders you place at the beginning and allow at any given time within the GridRun MainLotSizePercent can enable profits to compound when profits outweigh losses, and draw-down to lessen when losses outweigh profits As an example, if MainLotSizePercent 0 001 on a standard account with a free margin value of 100,000 where 1 lot 100,000 , then the lot size will be 1 which is 100,000 x 100 1, or if set to then lot-size 1 5 or 150,000 per trade, or if set to then lot-size 1 52 or 152,000 per trade If the account has 1,000,000 to start and you set MainLotSizePercent 0 001, the lot size would then be 10 which is 1 ,000,000 per trade 10 x 100,000 , etc If LotSize 5 in this example with MainLotSizePercent 0 001 then that will be the minimum lot size traded regardless of the MainLotSizePercent setting if equity drops down This setting can be changed on-the-fly for MainGridFixedCenter false MovingCenter grids, however it will affect new pending orders only, and not pending orders already in place 15 MainTakeProfitPips 0 - MTPP This input determines how many pips profit each of the pending trade orders will target for capture If for example, you are trading the EURUSD, and you have a pending buy order set to open at and it opens, and MainTakeProfitPips 35 then if price reaches the trade will be triggered closed capturing 35 pips of profit if no slippage When set to 0, this input is ignored This setting can be changed on-the-fly, however it will affect new pending orders only and not pending orders already in place in MovingCenter MainGrids 16 MainStopLossPips 0 - MSLP This determines the stop-loss fo r each individual pending order If set to 0 then this input is ignored If for example, you are trading the EURUSD, and you have a pending buy order set to open at and it opens, and MainStopLossPips 50, then if price drops to the trade will triggered to close at a loss of 50 pips This setting can be changed on-the-fly when MainGridFixedCenter false MovingCenter and will affect new pending orders only, not pending orders already in place 17a MainBreakEvenStop false - MBES When set to true, a break even stop-loss will be set on each individual MainGrid pending order according to the values set by the next two settings When set to false, then the MainBreakEvenStop settings are disabled These settings can work with or without the following MainProfitPipsBeforeTS settings These settings can not be changed on-the-fly 17b MainProfitPipsBeforeBES 10 - MPPBBES When MainBreakEvenStop true then this setting is enabled If set to 10 as an example, when a pending order is triggered open and then move s 10 pips into profit, then a break even stop is placed on the order so that if price retraces by 10 pips, the open trade is closed at break even plus whatever pips value is set by the next setting This value can only be set to whole pips, not fractional pips 17c MainBreakEvenStopPlusPips 1 - MBESPP The value in pips set here adds to the break even stop If set to the default of 1 pip as an example, then it means that if MainProfitPipsBeforeBES 10 and an open order reaches 10 FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 11 of 28.12 pips of profit and the MainBreakEvenStop is triggered and price retraces 9 pips 10-1 , then the order stops out 1 pip in profit This setting is useful to offset commission and or swap fees and or slippage 18a MainProfitPipsBeforeTS 0 - MPPBTS If set to the default 0 pips, then this setting is ignored If set to a value such as 36 as an example, each of the individual trade orders that are opened will need to move 36 pips into profit before the MainTrailStopPips input setti ng below is activated If MainProfitPipsBeforeTS 0 then whatever you set MainTrailStopPips to will be the immediate starting trailing stop loss It differs from MainStopLossPips which fixes the StopLoss on the broker server This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 18b MainTrailStopPips 0 - MTSP This input determines how many pips the trail-stop will be As an example, if MainProfitPipsBeforeTS 0 and MainTrailStopPips 50, then a stop-loss is immediately set at 50 pips away from where the pending order is opened That stop loss will then trail pip by pip from there if price moves in a profitable direction If price moves in a losing direction then the trailing stop loss will remain fixed where it For another example, if MainProfitPipsBeforeTS is set to 36 and MainTrailStopPips is set to 9, then when each individual order is 36 pips into profit, the trail stop of 9 is triggered and 27 pips of profit will be locked in and if price keeps moving in a profitable direction, the trail stop will fol low pip by pip Let s say that an individual order moves 50 pips into profit and then retraces 9 pips The trade will then close out with 41 pips of profit Stealth Mode Percent - These percent settings below can be used in conjunction with the pips settings above as backup stop-losses set further away than the percent stealth mode settings All CloseRun settings further below also operate in Stealth mode, meaning they are not known by the broker 19 MainTakeProfitPercent 0 - MTPPc If set to the default 0, then this setting is ignored When set to a percent value, this input determines what percentage of profit based on equity at the time of the pending order placement MovingCenter or at the start of and for the duration of the Run, will close the order As an example, if MainTakeProfitPercent 1 50, this means that 1 50 of the equity becomes the order profit target Each time a new pending order with the setting MainTakeProfitPercent set to a percentage value is placed, the target profit amoun t is calculated using the percent value based on the equity at that time of placement Please note the difference here MainTakeProfitPips is a target that is placed on the broker server whereas MainTakeProfitPercent is a target that is controlled by FGM in stealth mode that the broker doesn t know about 20 MainStopLossPercent 0 - MSLPc If set to the default 0 percent, then this setting is ignored When set to a percent value, this input determines what percentage of loss based on equity at the time of the pending order placement, will close the order As an example, MainStopLossPercent 1 00, this means that 1 of the equity becomes the money amount stop-loss for the order This Stealth mode setting can be changed on-the-fly 21a MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 - MPPcBTS If set to the default 0 percent, then this setting is ignored If set to a value such as 0 35 as an example, then each of the individual trade orders that are open will need to be 0 35 into profit before the MainTrailStopPercent i nput setting below is activated If MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 then whatever you set MainTrailStopPercent to will be the immediate trailing stop-loss It differs from MainStopLossPips which fixes the stop-loss This percent setting also operates in Stealth mode and cannot be changed on-the-fly 21b MainTrailStopPercent 0 - MTSPc Works also with MainProfitPipsBeforeTS but not if MainTrailStopPips is set to a value This input determines what percentage of equity the trail-stop will be As an example, if MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 35 and MainTrailStopPercent 0 05, then a stop-loss money value equal to 0 05 of equity at the time the MainProfitPercentBeforeTS value was determined That money stop-loss determined by 0 05 percent of equity will then trail from there if price moves in a profitable direction If price moves in a losing direction then the trailing percent stop-loss will remain fixed where it is Now if MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 55 and MainTrailStopPercent 0 05, then when each indivi dual order has attained an amount of profit equal to 0 55 of equity at the time of the pending order placement, the trail-stop is triggered and profit is locked in and if price keeps moving in a profitable direction, the trail-stop will follow by a value equal to 0,05 of the equity at the time of placement of the pending order This Stealth mode setting cannot be changed on-the-fly MainGrid FixedCenter Inputs MainGrid FixedCenter settings when chosen can modify MainGrid orders when MainGridFixedCenter true When MainGridFixedCenter false MovingCenter , the next 5 settings in this section are ignored When MainGridFixedCenter true, then whatever grid of pending orders is initially placed, according to the next

to your bottom line, especially for scalping strategies We are constantly testing many of the old and new MT4 and MT4-ECN brokers I have traded with more than 20 carefully selected brokers since 2002 and the choices continue to evolve in favour of traders as brokers become more competitive, traders more aware, and regulatory agencies more watchful Now it is the norm to expect low spreads 1 pip or less for eurusd , no or low commissions, no re-quotes, instant execution, no restrictions on pending order distance from current price, 0-1 pip stop loss, 1 ms to 10 ms or less latency from VPS to broker server, etc These are all important aspects of forex to learn and use to your advantage ForexGridMaster is user friendly, and it is also a very sophisticated software program that requires time and practice for the user to become familiar and comfortable with all its settings and possible combinations A s of Aug 26, 2013, we think that no other robot can compare, and that your efforts with FGM will be well rewarded FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 1 of 28.2 ForexGridMaster v5 1 Expert Advisor Input List TOC These 104 trader input settings are linked to their descriptions further below

CloseAllNow false Important - There are more options in the file to change how and what FGM displays on the chart, to set alerts, and more Be sure to test your strategy extensively on a demo account and Strategy Tester to fully understand what the settings and their combinations do exactly, before you trade on a real money account Please do not underestimate how important this really is Important - Some of the above 106 settings can be changed on-the-fly, meaning that the FGM properties window can be opened while the robot is trading, and some input settings changed without removin g the EA first that can be changed on-the-fly are generally those that will not change the basic trading strategy FGM v5 is a major upgrade so older version strategy files will need to be adjusted once loaded MT5 - Here s an excellent letter by Daniel Fernandez writer for CurrencyMag to MetaQuotes that gives you a good idea of where MetaTrader is at presently Many experienced traders and developers are very frustrated with different FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 2 of 28.3 aspects of MT4 and MT5 including myself We agree with all of Daniel s comments and we will monitor MetaTrader s progress closely to see if and when to create an MT5 version of ForexGridMaster Starting with MT4 build 600, Metaquotes started integrating features they had in MT5 back into MT4 now at build 670 and now things appear to be improving JForex - The JForex platform programmed in JAVA has built a solid reputation and we can create a JForex version of ForexGridMaster as an alternative if needed to trade at Duka sCopy and several other brokers offering it as well Important ForexGridMaster User Guidelines TOC 1 If you are new to MT4 EA Expert Advisor robot trading and need to learn how to download the MT4 trading platform and setup ForexGridMaster on a demo or real account, then please first read the We highly recommend MT4 to ECN brokers I am an Introducing Broker to IC Markets in Australia my referral link Build - ForexGridMaster is best traded on MT4 build 670 and up, the latest as of Sep 9, Full license - ForexGridMaster Full-version is licensed to your account name and can be traded on as many demo and real money accounts as you like as long as each account name matches the license name There are 4 files that need to be placed in your MT4 trading platform directories in order for ForexGridMaster to be ready and able to trade file is installed in your MT4 platform mql4 experts directory file is installed in your MT4 platform mql4 libraries directory licensing file is installed in your MT4 p latform mql4 libraries directory file is installed in both your MT4 platform mql4 files and tester files directories Next, your MT4 platform needs to be closed and restarted for FGM to work With ForexGridMaster v5 1 and supporting files in your possession, you are totally independent from us Of course we are here to help whenever you need it and we encourage you to participate in our forum Accounts or brokers can be changed whenever without anything from us, as long as the name on the different accounts remain the same as the name that you provided us for licensing You are entitled at no cost to all bug fixes and upgrades within version 4 Trial license - ForexGridMaster Trial-version is exactly the same as the Full-version except that it has a license expiration date set to expire at least three months from the day we send you FGM The Trial-version is licensed to your name and can trade as many demo accounts as you like but it will not work on real money accounts 5 Account currency - F GM will work using any account based currency USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, AUD, etc 6 Decimal places - ForexGridMaster automatically detects whether your broker uses 2, 3, 4 or 5 decimal places for price quotes So in any case, as an example, MainTakeProfitPips can be set to 17 pips regardless of whether the price quotes use 2, 3, 4 or 5 decimal places In the case of the EURUSD as one example of 5th place decimal pricing, the 4th place decimal is the pip and the 5th a fraction of a pip called a point If the EURUSD moves from to then it has moved 1 pip or 10 points If it moves from to then it has moved 1 10th of a pip or 1 point For currencies with 3 decimal places, such as the USDJPY, if it moves from to then it has moved 1 pip or 10 points, and if from to then it has moved 1 10th of a pip or 1 point 7 ECN - ForexGridMaster works on ECN connected MT4 non-dealer broker platforms such as hosted by IC Markets in Australia An ECN connection normally offers the best spreads and execution When co nsidering brokers to choose please check with us for up to date recommendations 8 Setting changes - When you start a new strategy or make changes to an existing strategy except settings that can be changed on-the-fly , it is best to first remove ForexGridMaster, and then delete all chart objects right click on chart, choose Objects List, select all objects by selecting one object line and then use ctrl a to select all and then use Delete on the right Also after deleting objects, any open trades or pending orders left on the chart, will no longer be controlled by FGM and they will have to be managed separately manually, and or by using ForexTradeManager to close many or all orders quickly In any case, please always test thoroughly on a demo account or Strategy Tester until you are confident that you know what does what FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 3 of 28.4 9 Time-frames - ForexGridMaster strategies are not time-frame dependent, meaning that you can trade any FGM strategy you like on any time frame and the only difference will be how well you can view the trading action My routine is to always keep ForexGridMaster trading on the M1 time-frame only and I open an extra chart or two of the same currency pair on the same account to view other time-frames The pending orders and open trades will also be displayed on the extra chart The time-frame can be changed on-the-fly on the same chart that ForexGridMaster trades, but doing so will effect the display size of the CloseRun bars due to MT4 object display limitations Important - When back-testing strategies in Strategy Tester you must always choose the M1 time-frame 10 Closing orders - Whenever open and or pending orders are triggered to close at the same time, by any of the CloseRun settings and also by ForexTradeManager, it takes time for the open trades and pending orders to close Price is moving so results will not be perfectly accurate The final results will be more or less than what the target was In normal market conditions, the difference is relatively small if any If you are using scalping strategies it is best to make sure your latency from your FGM robot to the broker server is low, 0 to 50 ms being best 11 Many orders - The more open trades and pending orders that are on your charts, the more chances there will be of execution delays, especially if the latency of trade execution is more than 50 ms Also not all brokers are the same The amount of technology involved, your broker and their server, their MT4 environment, the computer your ForexGridMaster trades from, the bank feeds to the broker, the Internet, etc is mind boggling and also relatively in its infancy MT4 executes only one line of code at a time per chart, so glitches can happen and in the beginning, it is important to keep a watchful eye on your MT4 platform as it trades your strategies, at least until you know that all will work reliably We very strongly recommend that you trade your strategies and also strategies from others on a demo account first and also test them on Strategy Tester on at least one year of M1 data, or tick data, for as long as it takes for you to become very familiar and confident with how all the ForexGridMaster input settings work for those strategies When you start trading real money, start small MT4 brokers are not equal and different MT4 broker platforms may produce different results for different reasons However ForexGridMaster programming is the best industrial strength quality and is capable of trading working strategies very reliably for an indefinite period of time 12 FGM EA smiley face - When ForexGridMaster is trading and all is well, you will see a small smiley face icon positioned at the top right of the currency pair chart window You can click on that smiley face to open FGM s properties window Sometimes however, the info printed on the chart just below the smiley face is selected by mistake and FGM will not be opened to its properties window, especially if you have chose n a larger font size for the chart comments and stats print out Otherwise, just right click in any clear area on the chart display and choose Expert Advisors and then Properties In an emergency situation when FGM cannot be accessed to change its property settings or cannot be removed for whatever reason, click the Expert Advisors button on the tool bar above to disable it, or simply close the chart window to remove FGM If necessary, any open trades and pending orders will then need to be closed manually or by using ForexTradeManager The smiley face turns red when FGM is active and the properties window is not accessible while it is red 13 strategy files - When creating strategies for ForexGridMaster using the input settings described below, they can be saved as preset files in your MT4 platform experts preset directory default , so that whenever you wish to trade that strategy, you can open ForexGridMaster on a chart and then Load the preset file from the Inputs tab FGM preset files ca n also be saved and shared with others We name preset files so that we can recognize what the strategy is For example, if named audnzd it s a BuySell CounterTrend strategy for the audnzd with MainGridSpacing 7 pips, MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 70 and MainMaxOpenSellTrades 70, MainLotSizePercent 0 0001, MainTakeProfitPips 21, CloseRunProfitPercent 1 , and CloseRunLossPercent 50 14 Leverage - Some brokers will allow as much as 500 1 leverage on their accounts This means that FGM can trade a full standard lot of 100,000 using only 200 on margin, which is excellent for FGM, especially if you are looking for high profit Most grid trading strategies need lots of flexibility, to be able to endure at least a 30 maximum floating equity drawdown Be sure you know what you are doing however as high leverage can also be dangerous The leverage on the account that FGM is trading can be seen in the Experts tab entries, usually a line or two after FGM has been initialized 15 Sharing strategies - files can be shared with other traders directly, or on our forum Our goal is to have many traders creating, back-testing and optimizing reliable winning strategies for all Please visit and participate in our forum as together I think we can develop good profitable and reliable FGM strategies FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 4 of 28.5 16 Back-testing - FGM should always use M1 data or Tick data for back-testing as no other time-frame will work properly See the back-testing manual included with your FGM purchase for more information In History Center Top menu Tools History Center use the Download button very bottom left to download M1 data from MetaQuotes MT4 program developer Proper back-testing saves tons of time and grief and can be exciting, much like playing a good video game If you are not back-testing it is like running towards the edge of a mile high cliff with a blindfold on ForexGridMaster v5 1 Expert Advisor Input Setting Descriptions TOC ForexGridMaster trades two types of grids, a MainGri d and or a HedgeGrid, either in combination with each other or independently If combined, HedgeGrid settings always operate totally apart from the MainGrid settings except that CloseRuns are triggered by the net profit and loss calculations of both MainGrid and HedgeGrid trades combined 1 EANumber 528 - EAN This input enables each instance of ForexGridMaster to keep track of its own trades and calculations separate from other instances of FGM, other EAs, and also other trades placed manually, on the same currency pair or different currency pairs in the same trading account Each FGM must run by itself on its own chart and its EANumber must be uniquely different from each EANumber used by other EAs on other charts ForexGridMaster s input settings affect only trade orders associated with the EANumber of that FGM instance This is different from ForexTradeManager whose settings can affect all trade orders placed manually and or by other EAs It doesn t matter what EANumber you choose except that the number is limited to 9 digits When you stop trading your strategy, it is best to remove ForexGridMaster from the chart, and when you start again with a new strategy, be sure to change either the EANumber or delete the object so that the Current Run Stats on the chart are reset properly for a new beginning, and also the robot will not be influenced by any historical trading activity that occurred previously This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 2a SetFileName gbpusdbsct-5s-1tot-21lsp 001ip-11crpp SFN What you type in here for this setting will be displayed on the chart top right You can type anything here, but most useful for me is a name that indicates the main settings values of the strategy The name gbpusdbsct-5s-1tot-21lsp 001ip-11crpp-0 34 tells me it trades the GBPUSD, it s a MainGrid BuySell CounterTrend FixedCenter strategy with these values set MainGridSpacing 5 pips, MainGridSpacingStep 1 pip, MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 21 trades and MainMaxOpenSellTrades 21 trades, Mai nLotSizePercent 0 001, MainLotSizeIncreasePercent 11 and CRProfitPercent 0 34 CloseRun setting This settings can be changed on-the-fly 2b SetFileInfo FGM-Default - SFI You can also type anything here This setting can be changed on-the-fly 3a MainGridActive true - MGA If set to true then all MainGrid settings are activated If false then all MainGrid settings are disabled This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 3b MainGridFixedCenter true - MGFC When trading a MainGrid FixedCenter strategy, the FixedCenter will be the current market bid price when FGM initiates Run 1 However if you have enabled either OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice or OpenSellAtCurrentPrice not both at the same time , then the FixedCenter will be half of the MainGridSpacing pips value away from and exactly between the first buy and sell slots of the MainGrid When you have configured your strategy settings and are ready to trade FGM, click the OK button and your FGM strategy will start Run 1 on the next tick The FixedCenter will remain the same MainGrid FixedCenter price for the duration of the Run and the rest of the grid will develop based on that FixedCenter price There are 5 settings in the MainGrid FixedCenter Inputs section that can be used when trading a MainGrid FixedCenter strategy When MainGridFixedCenter false - MGMC It means a MovingCenter The initial MainGrid MovingCenter price will be the current market bid price The rest of the grid will develop based on that MainGrid initial MovingCenter price, even though that non-fixedcenter will be moving Because some brokers do not allow pending orders to be placed within 5-20 pips more or less of market price, depending on your MainGridSpacing, the initial grid position slots next to MainGrid center may not be filled with pending orders until current price has moved away far enough to allow it In the meantime, grid slots further out from MainGrid center are filled when and where possible according to the already established initial MainGrid center price a nd your other input settings choices A MovingCenter will change to always be the current moving market bid price when you trade either a Buy or a Sell grid, or a BuySell grid combined with BuySellOverlap true and or BuySellOffset However, if you trade a BuySell grid and BuySellOverlap false, then the MovingCenter will center itself and remain between the buy and sell orders and will move as needed to always be between the buy and sell orders Buy and sell pending orders will be placed as FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 5 of 28.6 close as possible to grid center according to your MainGridSpacing and or MainCenterZonePips settings See examples immediately below This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly MainGrid FixedCenter and MovingCenter scenarios TOC Trading a MainGrid FixedCenter strategy, the Buy and Sell pending orders are kept separated from each other, buys on one side of the FixedCenter price and sells on the other, no overlap allowed As an example, when FGM trades a MainGrid Buy Sell Trend strategy, only pending Buy stop orders can be placed above the FixedCenter price and only pending Sell stop orders can be placed below If FGM trades a MainGrid Buy Trend HalfGrid as another example, then only pending Buy stop orders can be placed above the FixedCenter price which will be half the MainGridSpacing value below the 1 st open buy order, whether pending or open If trading a MainGrid Buy CounterTrend HalfGrid strategy, then only pending Buy limit orders can be placed below the FixedCenter price Trading a MainGrid MovingCenter strategy with GridStartPriceUp 0 0 and GridStartPriceDown 0 0 both disabled , Run 1 will start at the current market bid price, but having a MovingCenter it will always move as market bid price changes for the duration of Run 1 For Run 2, the starting MovingCenter will again be the immediate market bid price after the close of Run 1 Follow-up Runs when CRAutoRestart true will continue the same way Trading a MainGrid MovingCenter strategy on th e eurusd as an example, with GridStartPriceUp and or GridStartPriceDown 1 3195, Run 1 will start in the future when the current market bid price goes up by 30 pips to or down to For Run 2, if CRAutoRestart true, the starting MovingCenter will be the immediate market bid price after the close of Run 1 which will be at a different center price than where Run 1 started Follow-up Runs will continue the same way When GridStartPriceUp and or GridStartPriceDown any value more than 0 , then it only applies to Run 1 and not any follow-up Runs Both are immediately disabled after one is triggered and the MainGrid opens and they can only be re-enabled again by manual intervention at the beginning to trigger Run 1 These settings can be changed on-the-fly if neither of them has not yet been triggered 4a HedgeGridActive false - HGA If set to the default false then all HedgeGrid General Inputs and HedgeGrid Order inputs settings below are ignored If Hedge true then all HedgeGrid settings below are ena bled according to how each of them are set This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 4b HedgeGridFixedCenter true - HGFC If set to the default true then this setting will work much the same as does MainGridFixedCenter true and whatever HedgeGrid pending orders are placed, the HedgeGrid created will remain fixed for the duration of the Run When a CloseRun occurs automatically and CRAutoRestart true, then a new MainGrid and or HedgeGrid Run will start up at the immediate current market bid price after all previous Run orders are closed One important difference between a HedgeGrid with a FixedCenter and a MainGrid with a FixedCenter is that the MainGrid number of grid positions slots for pending orders, including either an OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice or OpenSellAtCurrentPrice immediate market order, are fixed by the MainGrid settings MainMaxOpenBuyTrades and MainMaxOpenSellTrades, whereas the HedgeGrid orders are fixed and restricted toward the HedgeGrid center by the outer edge of the HedgeCen terZone but not restricted going away from HedgeGrid center where they can be placed further and further out according to their HedgeGridSpacing as price continues outwards until either a CloseRun or a Margin restriction is reached, or FGM s internal restriction of max open grid positions of 500, meaning 250 positions on the Buy side and 250 on the Sell side If HedgeGridFixedCenter false HGMC it means a MovingCenter HedgeCenterZone can move similar to how MainCenterZone moves when trading a MovingCenter grid HedgeCenterZone will move as the HedgeGrid buys and sells move, and no HedgeGrid orders open or pending can occupy a position within the HedgeCenterZone no matter where it is The HedgeCenterZone will move in the direction of price and closing HedgeGrid orders if they are closing within the current Run, and will remain between the HedgeGrid buy and sell orders For example, if HedgeCenterZonePips 100, and HedgeGridSpacing 20, and initial MovingCenter is at it looks like this hedge bu y 2 stop at HedgeGridSpacing hedge buy 1 stop at HedgeCenterZonePips will move up or down as HedgeGrid buys and sells move hedge sell 1 stop at HedgeGridSpacing 20 FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 6 of 28.7 hedge sell 2 stop at and then price moves down to then the HedgeGrid will look like this hedge buy 2 stop at moved down from when hedge buy 1 stop moved down HedgeGridSpacing hedge

HedgeTakeProfitPips 30 reached hedge sell 3 stop at placed when hedge sell 1 closed and then price moves all the way back up from to then the HedgeGrid will look like this hedge buy 3 stop at hedge

HedgeGridSpacing hedge s ell 2 open at 2nd hedge sell opened did not reach take profit and then price keeps moving up from to say then the HedgeGrid will now look like this hedge buy 4 stop at hedge buy 2 closed ---- at HedgeTakeProfitPips 30 reached hedge buy 3 open at opened when price moved up from HedgeCenterZonePips moved back up 20 pips hedge sell 3 stop at moved up 20 pips MainGrid General Inputs These settings apply only to the MainGrid that your strategy trades 5 MainBuy-1Sell-2BuySell-3 3 - MB or MS or MBS This input determines whether the trade orders placed by ForexGridMaster are either all buy orders Buy-1 , all sell orders Sell-2 , or both buy and sell orders BuySell-3 As an example, if you choose the default BuySell-3, and you decide to trade a Trend grid of orders to capture profit in the direction of the price trend, then buy stop orders will be placed above grid center and sell stop orders below If BuySell-3 is chosen and you want to trade a CounterTrend grid of orders, then buy limit orders will be placed below grid center and sell limit orders above When trading a BuySell grid, HalfGrid must be chosen too because you are trading a half grid of buy orders with a half grid of sell orders All grid orders are placed at currency pair bid prices This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 6 MainTrend-1CounterTrend-2 2 - MT or MCT This input determines whether the MainGrid of orders traded will be a Trend or a CounterTrend strategy A Trend strategy places buy stops above grid center Buy Trend , or sell stops below grid center Sell Trend or both BuySell Trend A CounterTrend strategy places buy limits below grid center Buy CounterTrend , or sell limits above grid center Sell CounterTrend or both BuySell CounterTrend This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 7, MainFullGrid-1HalfGrid-2 2 - MFG or MHG This input determines whether the MainGrid orders will be placed equally divided on both sides of grid center when set to FullGrid for Buy or Sell grids, or one side only when set to Ha lfGrid for Buy or Sell grids BuySell grids must be set to HalfGrid because you are trading a HalfGrid of buy orders with a HalfGrid of sell orders This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly Here are some basic examples FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 7 of 28.8 1 You wish to trade a Buy Trend grid to profit on price that is trending upwards You can choose FullGrid which will place pending buy stop orders above either a Moving or FixedCenter price, and pending buy limit orders below, or you can choose HalfGrid which will place pending buy stop orders above a Moving or FixedCenter price, but no buy limits below Using HalfGrids when trend trading in one direction only will lessen the number of accumulating open negative trades due to long price runs or spikes in the opposite direction of the trend you are trading Depending on your MainGridSpacing and how strong the trending market is, you may experience 30 or more less losing trades being opened by retracements opening your buy stops that a re following the price downwards from above 2 You wish to trade a Buy CounterTrend Half grid when you expect price to drop and turn back up This will place a HalfGrid of pending buy limit orders below either a Moving or FixedCenter, but no buy stops above 3 You wish to trade a BuySell CounterTrend grid on price that is ranging When you trade a BuySell strategy you must choose HalfGrid which will place pending sell limit orders above either a Moving or FixedCenter price, and pending buy limit orders below either a Moving or FixedCenter price 8 MainGridSpacing 5 - MGS This input determines the distance in pips from each pending trade order to the next pending trade order of the same type buys or sells in your trading grid There may be broker restrictions as to where the placement of the first pending orders are placed If the MainCenterZonePips setting is used then the first pending orders start at the exact edge of the CenterZone and MainGridSpacing applies from there MainGridSpacing wil l not work when both OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice true and OpenSellAtCurrentPrice true This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 9a MainMaxPendingBuyOrders 2 - MMPBO This input determines both the number of pending buy limit or buy stop orders that your strategy will place at grid start and the maximum number of pending buy orders permitted at any one time When trading a FullGrid, this input must be set to an even number such as 2, 28, or 50, not 1, 27, or 49 If either or both MainMaxOpenBuyTrades and MainMaxOpenSellTrades below are set to a number other than the default 0, then MainMaxOpenBuyTrades and MainMaxOpenSellTrades will determine the limit of open trades allowed, and the number of pending orders will be controlled accordingly If the number of open buy or sell trades reaches their limit, but then decreases one or more open trades close , then ForexGridMaster will resume opening pending orders to match FGM also limits the total number of open pending orders to a maximum of 50 This set ting can be changed on-the-fly to a higher value but not lower 9b MainMaxPendingSellOrders 2 - MMPSO This operates exactly like above but applies to pending sell orders 10a MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 21 - MMOBT When set to the default 0, this input is ignored When set to a number value, this input limits the number of open buy trades at any one time to that number Manual trades or other EAs with a unique EANumber can be traded on the same currency pair and or other pairs on other charts on the same account, without them being affected by this setting Most brokers limit the total number of orders placed in an account and some don t This setting can be changed on-the-fly except when MainGridFixedCenter true When MainGridActive true and MainGridFixedCenter true, if MainMaxOpenBuyTrades 20 for example then the total number of MainGrid buy positions slots that can be occupied by buy orders on the MainGrid buy side is fixed at 20 Any trade orders occupying any of those 20 positions can be opened, closed and replaced within a Run according to values set for other FGM inputs MaxOpenOrders Buy Sell limit is b MainMaxOpenSellTrades 21 - MMOST This operates exactly as the one above but applies to sell orders 11 MainCenterZonePips 0 - MCZP When set to the default 0, this input is ignored When set to a number of whole pips greater than 0, then a MovingCenter or FixedCenter MainCenterZone, the pips depth of the value set, is created at and centered by MainGrid center This CenterZone separates the placement of buy and sell orders, by the set value For example, if MainCenterZonePips 30, then no MainGrid orders pending or open can occupy a position inside that 30 pip CenterZone If a MovingCenter strategy is traded MainGridFixedCenter false , then the CenterZone can move as the position of the buys and sells move, however no MainGrid orders open or pending can occupy a position within the CenterZone no matter where it is HedgeGrid orders are the exception, meaning that HedgeGrid orders can be placed inside of the MainCenterZone which is possible but not normal , the same as MainGrid orders can be placed inside of the HedgeCenterZone which is common to do When trading a HalfGrid, say a Buy Trend strategy, then the MainCenterZone space is half what MainCenterZonePips is set to This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly When trading a MovingCenter strategy, the MainCenterZone moves in the direction of price and closing orders if orders are closing within the current Run, and will remain between the buy and sell orders and will move as needed FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 8 of 28.9 to always be between the buy and sell orders However, when trading a FixedCenter strategy, then the CenterZone will remain fixed in place for the duration of the Run, keeping buys and sells separated When trading a BuySell strategy and BuySellOverlap true, then MainCenterZonePips 0 must be set to disable the input MainCenterZonePips cannot be changed on-the-fly Here are examples of how the Cente rZone works with a FixedCenter or MovingCenter a FixedCenter --- MainGridFixedCenter true, MainGridSpacing 15, MainCenterZonePips 100, MainTakeProfitPips 35, MainMaxPendingBuyOrders 2 Looks like this buy 2 stop at buy 1 stop at CenterZonePips Remains fixed in place until the Run closes sell 1 stop at sell 2 stop at In the above example the CenterZone is fixed between and within the current Run So if price moves down as an example, and sell 1 is opened at and then closed at by reaching its MainTakeProfitPips 35, the CenterZonePips 100 will simply remain from to until the Run closes b MovingCenter --- MainGridFixedCenter false CenterZonePips 100, MainTakeProfitPips 35, TotalPendingBuyOrders 2 Looks like this buy 2 stop at buy 1 stop at CenterZonePips Initial CenterZone placement which will move up or down as buys and sells move sell 1 stop at sell 2 stop at When

disabled When set to true, a buy order is opened immediately at current price when FGM is initiated and all other pending grid orders placed during the Run are adjusted to that price position for the grid chosen In other words, the immediate opened buy order is part of whatever grid values are chosen, and determines where the MainGridSpacing starts from When MainCenterZonePips is set to a value, both OBACP and OSACP cannot be set to true, only one of the two settings can be set to true As an example if OBACP true and a buy is opene d at say and MainCenterZonePips 20 and we have a BuySell Trend grid trading, then the CenterZone is placed from to and the grid operates from there as it does normally, the first pending sell order position being set at to continue with the example If HedgeCenterZonePips is set to a value, say 400, then the center for the HedgeCenterZone will be set at OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice can be changed on-the-fly but it s important to understand how that works In fact it is a unique additional feature for scalping and also hedging or simply weighting trades at a reversal point after a long grid stretch It enables the ability to add more open buys and or sells at anytime without disturbing the current grid, and those buys and sells having the same EANumber are included in the grid for calculations and CloseRuns For example, when OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice true, every time FGM is removed from the chart and then restarted on the chart again and the OK button clicked, it opens a new buy at current price, whi ch is in addition to picking up the grid from where FGM left off Also OpenBuyAtCurrentPrice true can be changed to false on the fly so it doesn t open a buy when you remove it from and then restart it on the chart again Then once on the chart again it can be changed on the fly again to true so that on the next Run and follow-up Runs from there, it will open a buy, but without opening a buy right then on the current Run when OK is clicked Experiment and see for yourself how it works 12b OpenSellAtCurrentPrice false - OSACP This operates exactly as the one above but applies to sell orders 13 MainGridOrderReplacement true - MGOR If true then when an order has closed it will be replaced when possible to do so within the same grid run If false then each order within a grid run will only run once GridOrderReplacement operates the same as HedgeOrderReplacement, but only for the main grid as does the other only for the HedgeGrid This setting can be changed on-the-fly FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 10 of 28.11 MainGrid Order Inputs These settings apply to individual trade orders within MainGrid, which may also be modified by FixedCenter settings 14a MainLotSize MLS This input sets the minimum value for lot-size per trade order Most brokers allow a minimum lot-size of 0 01 which is 1 100th of the standard 100,000 lot-size, or 1,000 using USD as example and so 0 01 is the default LotSize value Some brokers set their minimum lot-size 10 times higher, to 0 10 10,000 in which case FGM will display an error message saying that you will need to change this input to LotSize 0 10 before FGM can continue If HedgeGridActive true and HedgeLotSize 0 01, then same as when MainLotSize 0 01, it also would need a reset to Either a fixed MainLotSize can be set for all trade orders at the beginning of the GridRun, or MainLotSizePercent along with minimum MainLotSize The lot-size determined by either of those two choices can also be automatically increased during the GridRun by using any of th e MainGridFixedCenter lot-size increase options MainLotSize can be changed on-the-fly, however it will affect new pending orders only, not pending orders already in place 14b MainLotSizePercent MLSP When a value is set here, then the lot-size traded is determined by the account s free margin multiplied by the value set in this input divided by 100 The lot-size traded will increase or decrease according to this calculation when every new pending order is placed when MainGridFixedCenter false, or at the start of and for the duration of each new Run when MainGridFixedCenter true However, it will not be applied if the calculated value is less than the MainLotSize value set above, in which case the lot-size set will be the minimum size for each new pending order placed until MainLotSizePercent calculates a larger lot-size than what MainLotSize is set to The exception to this is when you set MainGridFixedCenter true and all trade lot-sizes within the MainGrid are pre-determined regardless of how many pending orders you place at the beginning and allow at any given time within the GridRun MainLotSizePercent can enable profits to compound when profits outweigh losses, and draw-down to lessen when losses outweigh profits As an example, if MainLotSizePercent 0 001 on a standard account with a free margin value of 100,000 where 1 lot 100,000 , then the lot size will be 1 which is 100,000 x 100 1, or if set to then lot-size 1 5 or 150,000 per trade, or if set to then lot-size 1 52 or 152,000 per trade If the account has 1,000,000 to start and you set MainLotSizePercent 0 001, the lot size would then be 10 which is 1,000,000 per trade 10 x 100,000 , etc If LotSize 5 in this example with MainLotSizePercent 0 001 then that will be the minimum lot size traded regardless of the MainLotSizePercent setting if equity drops down This setting can be changed on-the-fly for MainGridFixedCenter false MovingCenter grids, however it will affect new pending orders only, and not pending orders already in place 15 MainTakeProfitPips 0 - MTPP This input determines how many pips profit each of the pending trade orders will target for capture If for example, you are trading the EURUSD, and you have a pending buy order set to open at and it opens, and MainTakeProfitPips 35 then if price reaches the trade will be triggered closed capturing 35 pips of profit if no slippage When set to 0, this input is ignored This setting can be changed on-the-fly, however it will affect new pending orders only and not pending orders already in place in MovingCenter MainGrids 16 MainStopLossPips 0 - MSLP This determines the stop-loss for each individual pending order If set to 0 then this input is ignored If for example, you are trading the EURUSD, and you have a pending buy order set to open at and it opens, and MainStopLossPips 50, then if price drops to the trade will triggered to close at a loss of 50 pips This setting can be changed on-the-fly when MainGridFixedCenter false MovingCenter and wi ll affect new pending orders only, not pending orders already in place 17a MainBreakEvenStop false - MBES When set to true, a break even stop-loss will be set on each individual MainGrid pending order according to the values set by the next two settings When set to false, then the MainBreakEvenStop settings are disabled These settings can work with or without the following MainProfitPipsBeforeTS settings These settings can not be changed on-the-fly 17b MainProfitPipsBeforeBES 10 - MPPBBES When MainBreakEvenStop true then this setting is enabled If set to 10 as an example, when a pending order is triggered open and then moves 10 pips into profit, then a break even stop is placed on the order so that if price retraces by 10 pips, the open trade is closed at break even plus whatever pips value is set by the next setting This value can only be set to whole pips, not fractional pips 17c MainBreakEvenStopPlusPips 1 - MBESPP The value in pips set here adds to the break even stop If set to the default of 1 pip as an example, then it means that if MainProfitPipsBeforeBES 10 and an open order reaches 10 FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 11 of 28.12 pips of profit and the MainBreakEvenStop is triggered and price retraces 9 pips 10-1 , then the order stops out 1 pip in profit This setting is useful to offset commission and or swap fees and or slippage 18a MainProfitPipsBeforeTS 0 - MPPBTS If set to the default 0 pips, then this setting is ignored If set to a value such as 36 as an example, each of the individual trade orders that are opened will need to move 36 pips into profit before the MainTrailStopPips input setting below is activated If MainProfitPipsBeforeTS 0 then whatever you set MainTrailStopPips to will be the immediate starting trailing stop loss It differs from MainStopLossPips which fixes the StopLoss on the broker server This setting cannot be changed on-the-fly 18b MainTrailStopPips 0 - MTSP This input determines how many pips the trail-stop will be As an example, if MainProfitPipsBeforeTS 0 and MainTrailStopPips 50, then a stop-loss is immediately set at 50 pips away from where the pending order is opened That stop loss will then trail pip by pip from there if price moves in a profitable direction If price moves in a losing direction then the trailing stop loss will remain fixed where it For another example, if MainProfitPipsBeforeTS is set to 36 and MainTrailStopPips is set to 9, then when each individual order is 36 pips into profit, the trail stop of 9 is triggered and 27 pips of profit will be locked in and if price keeps moving in a profitable direction, the trail stop will follow pip by pip Let s say that an individual order moves 50 pips into profit and then retraces 9 pips The trade will then close out with 41 pips of profit Stealth Mode Percent - These percent settings below can be used in conjunction with the pips settings above as backup stop-losses set further away than the percent stealth mode settings All CloseRun settings further below also operate in Stealth mode, meaning they are not known by the broker 19 MainTakeProfitPercent 0 - MTPPc If set to the default 0, then this setting is ignored When set to a percent value, this input determines what percentage of profit based on equity at the time of the pending order placement MovingCenter or at the start of and for the duration of the Run, will close the order As an example, if MainTakeProfitPercent 1 50, this means that 1 50 of the equity becomes the order profit target Each time a new pending order with the setting MainTakeProfitPercent set to a percentage value is placed, the target profit amount is calculated using the percent value based on the equity at that time of placement Please note the difference here MainTakeProfitPips is a target that is placed on the broker server whereas MainTakeProfitPercent is a target that is controlled by FGM in stealth mode that the broker doesn t know about 20 MainStopLossPercent 0 - MSLPc If set to the default 0 percent, then this setting is ignored When set to a percent value, this input determines what percentage of loss based on equity at the time of the pending order placement, will close the order As an example, MainStopLossPercent 1 00, this means that 1 of the equity becomes the money amount stop-loss for the order This Stealth mode setting can be changed on-the-fly 21a MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 - MPPcBTS If set to the default 0 percent, then this setting is ignored If set to a value such as 0 35 as an example, then each of the individual trade orders that are open will need to be 0 35 into profit before the MainTrailStopPercent input setting below is activated If MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 then whatever you set MainTrailStopPercent to will be the immediate trailing stop-loss It differs from MainStopLossPips which fixes the stop-loss This percent setting also operates in Stealth mode and cannot be changed on-the-fly 21b MainTrailStopPercent 0 - MTSPc Works also with MainProfitPipsBeforeTS bu t not if MainTrailStopPips is set to a value This input determines what percentage of equity the trail-stop will be As an example, if MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 35 and MainTrailStopPercent 0 05, then a stop-loss money value equal to 0 05 of equity at the time the MainProfitPercentBeforeTS value was determined That money stop-loss determined by 0 05 percent of equity will then trail from there if price moves in a profitable direction If price moves in a losing direction then the trailing percent stop-loss will remain fixed where it is Now if MainProfitPercentBeforeTS 0 55 and MainTrailStopPercent 0 05, then when each individual order has attained an amount of profit equal to 0 55 of equity at the time of the pending order placement, the trail-stop is triggered and profit is locked in and if price keeps moving in a profitable direction, the trail-stop will follow by a value equal to 0,05 of the equity at the time of placement of the pending order This Stealth mode setting cannot be chan ged on-the-fly MainGrid FixedCenter Inputs MainGrid FixedCenter settings when chosen can modify MainGrid orders when MainGridFixedCenter true When MainGridFixedCenter false MovingCenter , the next 5 settings in this section are ignored When MainGridFixedCenter true, then whatever grid of pending orders is initially placed, according to the next 4 settings FGM v5 1 September 9, 2014 Page 12 of 28.
