Minimum move (in pips) before the trailing stop is pulled up again. 1 keeps it close behind price.

Default

0

Suggested range

Default

0.0

Suggested range

—

Halts all seven legs if account drawdown from peak equity reaches this percent. 0 = off, which is how the record was measured — and the record's own worst drawdown was 17.52%, so pick a level above that if you turn it on.

Default

5

Suggested range

—

The ceiling across all seven legs — this is what makes the EA a portfolio rather than seven separate EAs. 5 was the measured setting, and unlike the shorter-horizon builds this ceiling was actually reached: the EA did hold 5 positions at once during the test, so lowering it would change the record.

Suggested range

—

Blocks new entries once the combined open volume reaches this. 0 = off (measured setting).

Default

0.0

Suggested range

—

Closes every leg when total floating loss reaches this amount (positive number). 0 = off.

Default

0

Suggested range

—

Force-closes any of this EA's positions older than this many hours. 0 = off, which the record needs: the median position is held 64 hours and the longest ran 49 days, so a low value here would cut trades the record contains.

Default

0.0

Suggested range

—

Halts all legs for the rest of the day once realised loss reaches this. 0 = off (measured setting).

Suggested range

Moves a position's stop to entry once it is this many pips in profit. 0 = off, which is how the record was measured — only the trailing leg moves its stop.

Default

1.0

Suggested range

—

Extra pips beyond entry to lock in when the break-even move happens. Only used when the trigger is on.
