Q1) No, Just click and drag the ea and check the appropriate boxes
Q2) Yes. But it sometiems does not make any trades It looks for a good opening.
Q3)It has three internak stop losses, A quick whipsaw stop, A doomsday death drop stop/ and it closes all trades at the end of the month
Q4) If you have to ask this question leave it at default settings.
Q5) FAP holds all trades until it is stopped out or takes profit.
Q6) See answer Q4.

Hi, Aussie.
Sorry to hear your big loss. :( You seem to have some money to invest, but it is not recommended to start with a lot of money when you are a beginner. Test fap on your DEMO first until you feel comfortable with, and then use it on your live. Also, don't over leverage your account. If you do with fap, you will blow your account sooner or later.
Welcome to the forum :)
P.S. It is not a good idea to post your email address on the forum as anyone can come here and see it. You might get spammed.

But I have read few forums and few people recommend to change the settings of your Stop Loss & Take Profit.
I know you said to use the default but I would like you to see the secanrio below and tell what you think!!!
If had a capital of $1500 to Trade on a real account would be best to set the following settings:
Lots=0.01
Max Orders=1 Does Max Orders Stand for 1 Trade at a time?
Take Profit=200
Stop Loss=25
SlipPage=3
Could you please tell me what is the best configuration settings for $1500 mini account I would really appreciate your help.
Also what is MaxLots=100?
I suppose should test it on a demo account and mayme Backtest it.
Thanks Again Eagle for your reply :)

Try this...
Lots.01
Take profit 20
Stop loss 300
Max orders 10
Don'try about Max lots.
you don't have enough money to hit that
Everything else is default
Try on demo first
