Timing & Protection
These settings pace trading and protect open trades:
- Trade Pause — seconds to wait after a trade closes, or after your broker rejects an order, before the next entry; 0 still keeps a short built-in pause of a few seconds
- Min Time(s) — a stop or target reached before the trade is this old is held, and the trade closes once it reaches this age
- Max Time(s) — closes a trade once it is this old; 0 = off
- Max Spread — no new entry while your broker's spread is wider than this, in points
- RealSL vs. Virtual — whether the stop-loss is sent to the broker or managed internally by the terminal
- AutoOffset — automatic adjustment applied to entry/exit levels to account for broker-specific slippage
