trading terminal attached with the auto-trading software (EA/Robot).

containing the Remote Desktop Connection login Server IP, Username and Password

Login to the server via Windows Accessories RDC (Remote Desktop Connection) –
mstsc.exe.
For Windows 10, you can get this RDC by accessing Start/All apps/ Windows
Accessories/Remote Desktop Connection. For convenience, create a short-cut on your
computer Taskbar by placing the mouse over "Remote Desktop Connection", right click
mouse and choose "more/pin to taskbar" or "create desktop shortcut.

Go to the "Input" Tab, change changes on those marked in Red according to the recommended
capital size and leave other inputs at default as follow:
Chart = Use GBPUSD H4 Chart, other pairs require different optimization settings
note1 = Unsuitale for trading on Metals Variable, Indices, Futures, Index pairs,
caution = Use broker with low spread & Low latency
startlotsrecommended = Max. startlots size: Capital of 10K=0.04;5K=0.02;3K=0.01
start_lots: 10K=0.04, 5K=0.02 and 3K=0.01.
multiplier = 1.5, is the multiple of lot size increase from 3rd order onwards. Don't recommend
vary too much.
grid_size = 40.0, is the distance to start entering the next order when price moved away from
the last position.
take_profit = 20.0, this is the Take Profit (TP) in pip. If there many positions opened, the EA will
calculate the combined 5pip Take Profit and place Pending TP in the broker trading server.
Normally all pending orders will be closed instantly when hit target.
useTrailStop = false, do not use trailing stop function unless you know what to do
trailStart = 20, trailing start when price move 20 pips in profit.
trailStep=5, trail in step of 5 pips.
maxlotsizenote1 = when startlots=0.01 use 0.11, 0.02 use 0.23; 0.03 use 0.34,
maxlotsizenote2 = 0.04 use 0.46, 0.05 use 0.57, 0.06 use 0.68, 0.08 use 0.91
max_lots = 0.11 (lot), this restrict the maximum lot size that a particular order can open. So if on
the 10th order the lot size should be 2 lots but the EA will enter at only 1.5 lots.
max_trades = 15, this is the maximum number of order that the EA is allowed to open in any
particular direction. Very seldom it'll hit that number but if in extreme cases when market moved
away from your favorable direction too much, and your Capital has sufficient Margin Level, can
increase to any numbers.

use_equity_stopout = false, the default is set at false. If set at "true" then when your floating
loss has hit the % specified in the next field, the EA will close all positions and start afresh.
equity_stopout = 25 (%), can enter any % according to trader risk appetite. When
"use_equity_stopout" is set to true and when price move to a position whereby your floating
loss has reached say 25%, then the EA will close all orders and start afresh. In that case your
new capital will be the amount after taking the losses.
magic = 7777, use 2 different values for Only Buy and Only Sell charts if two charts are in the
same account. If for different account, then no need to have different Magic number.
After all are set, click OK to close.
Similarly, on the second account MT4 Terminal, click and select the GBPUSD H4 chart and
attach the "LS Double Dragon EA V1.200" EA to the chart from Navigator / Experts Advisors
folder, this time at "Common" tab choose "Only Short", at the "Inputs" tab change the magic
number, the other settings at default.
If you see at the top right corner of the chart with a smiling
face, the EA is working properly.
If you see an error message below – it means that the LS Doubel Dragon EA has not been activated by
the Company. Contact LS Capital Pte Ltd for activation.
Once activated, just open the MT4 Terminal and open the charts as described before.
Once the EA is loaded properly, you’ll be able to see a Smiling Face on the EA.
Once everything has been set properly, just let it runs. You can close the Remote Desktop
Connection and return back to your own computer screen.
You can install other MT4 Terminals in any other computers and login with the same
account number and password for the purpose of observing the trading activities and
results, but you must not attach any more EA to other terminals.
