Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is my EA not opening trades? A: Check the "AutoTrading" button, ensure "Allow live trading" is enabled, and verify your broker allows automated trading on your account type.

Q: What does the "smiley face" icon mean? A: A smiley face in the top-right corner of the chart indicates the EA is successfully running; a frowny face means it is disabled.
Description & Settings
If the last candle was bullish, the EA will enter the market with a buy order. If the last candle is bearish, then the EA will enter the market with a sell order. In this case, the signal acts not only on the first order in the network, but also on all subsequent ones. This approach eliminates the opening of the network only after a specified distance. It turns out that the EA takes into account not only the distance set by the trader, but also the signal from the candles. In the case of a sharp price movement without a signal from the candles, no trade will be made. It is important to note that if there is a strong movement on the instrument (all candles are bearish), then the trade will be made on a bullish candle.
