Custom Indicator Settings
The following link has settings for popular custom indicators, both free and paid for. You can add as many as you like and the system will signal when they are all in agreement.
Standard Indicator Settings
The following link has settings for standard indicators and our own built-in functions. You can add as many as you like and the system will signal when they are all in agreement. Note, fine to combine with Custom Indicators.
Note, it's also possible to add standard indicators within the EA, via drop-down selection list next to Indicator Name in CONFIG button | Indicator Value to Capture.
Includes example custom indicators that are shipped with all MetaTrader installations, such as Heiken Ashi.
Account Management Rules
Rules that operate on the entire account, e.g daily max draw down and/or daily profit close on target reached, plus disabling trading. Note, may contain additional versions of rules that just work on chart/symbol.
Note, due to complexity of these rules they are not suitable for the Strategy Tester.
