==== Time Management Settings ====

• AllowedHour_ForBacktest - this parameter is only for backtesting! It helps optimizing the Time Management system. Here is how you can use it. During the optimization set start value 0, end value 23 and the step 1. You can optimize only one day per optimization. For example you want to optimize the forbidden hours for Monday, you have to disable other days bay settings TuesdayTrading=false ... to ... FridayTrading=false. At the end of the optimization the tester will show you the best hours for trading on Monday. You can add the bad hours in the parameter MondayForbiddenHours separated by comma, for example: 1,4,6.
• MondayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Monday
• MondayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Monday (applies only when MondayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set MondayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker's server time (the Market Watch)!
• TuesdayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Tuesday
• TuesdayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Tuesday (applies only when TuesdayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set TuesdayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker's server time (the Market Watch)!
• WednesdayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Wednesday
• WednesdayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Wednesday (applies only when WednesdayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set WednesdayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker's server time (the Market Watch)!
• ThursdayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Thursday

For example, if you set FridayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker's server time (the Market Watch)!
• SaturdayTrading and SundayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading during Saturday and Sunday respectively. Due to big GMT offset, some brokers trade during weekends and for that reason we added these parameters as well.

Example: MondayHoursForbidden = "9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16";

==== Friday Exit ====

• ExitHour - the robot will close all open positions at this hour on Friday.
• LastTradeHour - the robot can trade until the end of this hour on Friday (including this hour).

If you decide to use the "FridayExit" option you should set LastTradeHour and ExitHour several hours before the market closing of your broker on Friday.

==== Grid System ==== (optional)

• Grid_System - true/false - Enable/disable the Grid System of GOLD Scalper PRO.
• Grid_Max_Trades - maximal number of additional trades which will be opened when Grid System is enabled.
• Grid_Distance - the distance in pips between additional trades.
• Grid_Trade_By_Signal_Only - true/false - when its value is true the additional trades will be opened only by signal generated by a special indicator. When its value is false GOLD Scalper PRO will check only the distance between previous additional trade or initial trade. Most of the cases when Grid_Trade_By_Signal_Only=true the results are better.
• Grid_Signal_Period - possible values: 1, 5, 15, 30, 60, 240, 1440, 10080 and 43200. The values represent the official time frames in minutes M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1, W1 and MN. This parameter is used when Grid_Trade_By_Signal_Only is true. It is the time frame of the special indicator used for opening of the additional trades.
• Grid_Risk_Multiplier - parameter for controlling the lot size of the additional trades. By default, the lot size is equal to the initial trade lot size (Grid_Risk_Multiplier=1). If the value of this parameter is lower than 1 then the additional trades will be opened with lower lot size than the initial trade. If the value is greater than 1 then the additional trades will be opened with greater lot size than the initial trade. Grid_Risk_Multiplier is a multiplier and you can easily calculate the additional trades lot size. For example, if the initial trade lot size is 0.1 lot and you set Grid_Risk_Multiplier=1.5 then additional trades lot size will be: 0.1 x 1.5 = 0.15 lots
• Grid_Martingale - true/false - when its value is true then GOLD Scalper PRO becomes martingale strategy. Every additional trade will have greater and greater lot size. This is very useful sometimes because it will help the EA to close the trades quickly.
• Grid_Take_Profit - take profit in pips when Grid System is enabled.
• Grid_Take_Profit_Money - take profit in money (your account base currency) when Grid System is enabled. This parameter is very useful in case Grid_Martingale is enabled.
• Grid_Stop_Loss - stop loss in pips when Grid System is enabled
• Grid_Stop_Loss_Money - stop loss in money (your account base currency) when Grid System is enable

GOLD Scalper PRO is equipped with GRID system which is optional and disabled by default. This system was developed by request of our users. The performance of GOLD Scalper PRO is good without the GRID System and you don't need to enable it at all. But if you want to use it then you may check the .set file available in the package!
