Does anyone know what each of these settings does and what effects they have when you change the variable?

Lots=0;
LotsRiskReductor=10;
MaxOrders=1;
MaxLots=15;
StopTime=1;
aaa=20;
bbb=8;
TakeProfit=20;
StopLoss=0;
TrailingStop=0;
UseMAControl=1;
PeriodMA=100;
PriceMA_0_6=0;
TypeMA_0_3=0;
SpanGator=0.5;
SlipPage=3;
OrderMagic=231313;
SafetyGapDemarker=0.2;
SafetyGapWPR=0;
StartWorkTimeHour=0;
StartWorkTimeMin=0;
EndWorkTimeHour=0;
EndWorkTimeMin=0;

I'm particularly interested in knowing about the bottom half of these variables from UseMAControl on down. If anyone has some insight please share.

Thanks

I can help with some of them. I am not familiar with the technical indicators that FAPS uses so someone else can hit those. The work Time entries are for setting FAPS to start and stop trading at the times that you enter. I don't beleive that anyone here is messing with those. The order magic is a number given to this individual EA so that if you want to trade others EA's at the same time they will not conflict with each others individual trading routine. You still, however can have some conflict depending on the EA. (correct me if I am wrong on that one)


That is about all I can do for you.
