TC-Angel

Parameter Guide

Simple meaning behind each setting.

This guide is based on the current TC-Angel header files for EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, and Gold. It explains what each visible setting is for, without exposing internal strategy details.

Recommended use: keep the default pair-specific values first. For real trading, the safest settings to review are initial lot size, maximum spread, averaging limits, and notification settings. The Gold version has a different role, so please see the Gold parameter guide.

Use Entry Logic

Use Currency Strength For Nampin

Keep this set to true (the default). It blocks averaging entries when currency strength is too high, helping reduce the risk of progressing into a deep floating loss. Only advanced users who understand and have tested this behaviour should consider setting it to false.
