🔢 FAQs
❓ What is the purpose of the Magic Number in GOLD-PIP MINER EA MT4?
The MagicNumber = 9611 uniquely identifies all trades opened by the EA, allowing it to manage its own positions independently from manual trades or other Expert Advisors.
❓ Should I enable Auto Lot or use a Fixed Lot Size?
If you want dynamic position sizing based on account risk, enable UseAutoLot. Otherwise, keep it disabled to trade with the fixed LotSize = 0.1.
❓ How does the Session Filter improve trading performance?
The Session Filter limits trading to the configured London (08:00–16:00) and New York (13:00–22:00) sessions, helping the EA focus on periods of higher market liquidity.
❓ What does the Dynamic Lot Doubler feature do?
When enabled, the EA automatically increases position sizes after achieving the configured 100.0% account gain, while respecting the Maximum lot size = 5.0 limit.
❓ Why is the Max Spread setting important?
The MaxSpread = 30.0 filter helps prevent new trades during periods of unusually high spreads, reducing trading costs and improving execution quality.
