Detailed functions description:
- Setting up fractals: the fractals of the Classic Fractal Scalper EA work according the same principle as fractals of Bill Williams, with the only difference that you can choose the size of a fractal (the number of bars on the left and right sides).
- Recording of order statistics: the EA records detailed statistics about its execution of orders to a csv file. There you will find at what price the order was executed, spread upon activation, how long the order was opened, slippage and so on. All CSV files can be found in the general folder of your terminal in "\MQL4\Files\Classic Breakout Scalper\Screenshots\".
- Taking screenshots of charts: the EA takes screenshots during the activation of stop orders, thereby visually informing the trader about how pending orders were executed. Screenshots can be found in the folder "\MQL4\Files\Classic Breakout Scalper\Screenshots\".
