| Comment | Trade comment that appears in the terminal’s trade log for easy identification. |
| Auto Lotsize calculation | Defines how much account balance is required to open 0.01 lots. The lot size is calculated as: AccountBalance / Auto Lotsize calculation. Example: With 6'000 balance and value = 3000 → 0.02 lots will be traded. |
| Fixed Lotsize (if Auto Lotsize = 0) | Fixed lotsize if auto-sizing is disabled. |
| Lotsize Multiplier | Multiplies lotsize with each grid level (Martingale effect). Example: 2.5 = each next order is 2.5x larger. |
| Position Entry Level | Number of allowed grid entries per symbol. |
| Recovery Mode | Enables aggressive lot scaling after a loss to recover faster. |
| Use Auto Recovery Disable | Automatically disables Recovery Mode if drawdown exceeds the next setting. |
| Auto Recovery Disable (%) | Threshold (%) at which Recovery Mode will be turned off automatically. |
| Max Drawdown (%) | Maximum total drawdown allowed before blocking new trades. |
| Last Entry Level | Controls how many grid trades are allowed before stopping further entries. |
| Max Drawdown % to enter new Trade | Prevents opening any new trades if current drawdown exceeds this threshold. |
| Stop Multiplying at Trade x | Lotsize will no longer be multiplied beyond this trade count in a grid series. |
| Use Candle Age | Filters out trading signals that are too old (e.g., if they occurred too many candles ago). |
| Candle Age (in seconds) | Maximum allowed age of a trade signal before it is ignored. |
| Max Volatility Ratio | Defines the maximum ATR-to-price ratio. Trading is skipped if the market is too volatile. |
| Volatility Timeframe | Timeframe used to calculate ATR for the volatility filter (e.g., 1 Day). |
| Volatility Period | Number of candles used to compute the ATR. |
| Moving Average Mode | Type of moving average used for dynamic channel calculation (e.g., Linear weighted). |
