Current Configuration Overview
🔹 Indicator Settings: The EA uses Amplitude = 13 and a 35-day Calculation Range, providing the primary displayed indicator configuration.
🔹 Multiple Take Profits: The configuration uses TP1 = 0.5, TP2 = 0.9, and TP3 = 1.4, allowing the EA to work with three displayed Take Profit levels.
🔹 Stop Loss: The displayed indicator-based Stop Loss parameter is 1.5, while the direct Stop Loss = 0 because the Indicator method is selected.
🔹 Trading Direction: Both Trading Direction = Any Deals and Trade Direction = ANY allow the EA to operate without restricting the setup to one market direction.
🔹 Lot Management: Fixed lot sizing is selected, with 0.01 lots assigned to TP1, TP2, and TP3.
🔹 Recovery: Recovery Mode is disabled, while all three recovery coefficients are configured at 1.0.
🔹 Pending Orders: Pending orders are disabled, although the configured Shift level remains 100.0.
🔹 Trailing Stop: Trailing Stop is disabled, with Start trailing Stop = 240.0 and Dist trailing Stop = 25.0 available if activated.
🔹 Opposite Signals: The EA is configured to close an existing deal when an opposite signal appears.
🔹 News Protection: The overall News Filter is disabled, despite Enable major news = true and a 15-minute before/after-event setting.
🔹 Chart Tools: Both the trade panel and chart-line display are enabled.

Important Notes
🔹 TP and SL Units: Values such as TP1 = 0.5, TP2 = 0.9, TP3 = 1.4, and SL = 1.5 should be interpreted according to the EA's internal indicator calculation because the screenshot does not specify their exact price-unit conversion.
🔹 Indicator-Based TP/SL: The current setup uses Indicator for both Take Profit and Stop Loss, while the direct Take Profit = 0 and Stop Loss = 0 values should therefore not be interpreted as having no risk-management levels.
🔹 HTF Filter: Although Time Frame of HTF = 4 Hours is configured, Use HTF-filter function = false means the Higher Timeframe filter is currently inactive.
🔹 Time Filter: The configured trading hours are 01:00 to 23:00, but Use Time Filter function = false means these hours are not currently restricting trading.
🔹 News Filter: Enable major news = true does not by itself activate news filtering because Use News filter = false.
🔹 Maximum Lot Size: Max lot size = 1.5 is configured, but Maximum Lot Size Type = Don't use means the maximum-lot restriction is currently inactive.
🔹 Trailing Stop: The EA has Start trailing Stop = 240.0 and Dist trailing Stop = 25.0, but the feature is disabled by Use Trailing Stop function = false.
