Suggested range

—

The ID the EA stamps on its own orders so it never touches positions it did not open. Change it only if another EA on the same account happens to use the same number.

Default

3

Suggested range

—

How far (in pips) a market order may fill from the requested price before it is rejected. 3 pips is a working default for USD/JPY; it does not affect the backtest.

Default

true

Suggested range

—

The crossover is evaluated once per closed H1 bar. The published record was measured this way; turning it off lets the same crossing fire repeatedly inside one bar and changes the strategy.

Default

11

Suggested range

—

The lookback of the Ichimoku conversion line the EA reads for the crossing. Eleven bars on H1 is the measured setting; the standard nine reacts sooner and produces a different trade list.

Default

26

Suggested range

—

The lookback of the Ichimoku base line. The crossing of the conversion line through this line is the entire entry signal.

Default

52

Suggested range

—

The span setting the Ichimoku indicator requires. The cloud it produces is not read by this EA — only the conversion and base lines are — but the value is part of the measured build.

Default

11

Suggested range

—

The build creates two Ichimoku handles, one read for the conversion line and one for the base line. This is the conversion setting of the second handle and is kept identical to the first.

Default

26

Suggested range

—

The base line the EA actually compares against, read from the second handle. It must match the first handle's base setting or the two lines being compared come from different indicators.

Default

52

Suggested range

—

The span setting of the second handle, kept identical to the first. Not part of the decision.

Default

0.1

Suggested range

0.1 per $10,000 of balance

Fixed lot per trade. The published record is 0.1 lot on a $10,000 balance; scaling both together keeps the drawdown percentage the same.

Default

70

Suggested range

—

Attached when a long order is sent and never widened. It is half the target, which is the reason the strategy can win less than half its trades and still finish ahead.

Default

140

Suggested range

—

Twice the stop. Raising it without also raising the stop changes the ratio the measured record depends on.

Default

70

Suggested range

—

The short side uses the same distance as the long side — the build is symmetric.

Default

140

Suggested range

—

The short side target, identical to the long side.

Default

1

Suggested range

—

One. A crossover that occurs while a position is open is ignored rather than queued. Across the whole published record the measured maximum of simultaneously open positions is one.

Default

42

Suggested range

—

Once a trade is 42 pips ahead — 60% of the way to the stop distance being recovered twice over — the stop is moved to entry. Until that point the full 70-pip stop is at risk.

Default

1

Suggested range

—

The stop is set one pip beyond entry rather than exactly at it, so a trade that comes back cannot close at a small loss after costs.
