Notes and Recommendations

• Test on a demo account: Before using on a real account, test the EA in a simulated environment to ensure that it behaves as expected.
• Adjust parameters regularly: The market is dynamic, and parameters may need to be adjusted to improve efficiency.
• Monitor results: Regularly monitor results to identify optimization opportunities.

Notes

• This robot has operating logic based on Netting type accounts. In Hedge type accounts, there may be unpredictable and different behaviors than expected.
• There are differences between the Forex market and the B3 market:
• In Forex, the ideal is for the lot to be redefined as a decimal variable with a default value of 0.01.
• In the B3 market (Brazilian stock exchange), the lot value must be an integer with multiples of 100, this being the minimum value.
• This robot is for educational purposes, it is not an indication or suggestion for investment.
• We strongly suggest taking the course "Create Robots with MQL5 and Object Oriented Programming - OOP" for a better understanding of this Expert Advisor.
