Non-negotiable behaviours

• STOP pauses new entries and cancels pendings — leaves open tickets for Scouter.
• HALT pauses entries and the linked Scouter — still does not close tickets.
• FOLLOW (default): keep filling latest signal direction; Scouter owns exits.
• WAIT: block new-direction entries while opposite magic exposure remains.
• Profit path closes winners only (minimal set, biggest green first). Losers exit via adverse-bar Auto or catastrophe SL — not via ASAP floors.
• One Scouter instance for “All symbols” — two harvest engines on the same book race.

Windows deploy (easy path)

Any Windows machine with MetaTrader 5 can host Velocity after a git clone. Prefer the batch scripts; confirm with the gated runbook.

Prerequisites

• Windows 10/11
• MetaTrader 5 build 3000+
• Demo account first
• Git (optional but recommended for updates)

Step 1 — Get the toolkit from GitHub

Repository: gocitygroup/GsignalX-Velocity

git clone https://github.com/gocitygroup/GsignalX-Velocity.git
cd GsignalX-Velocity

SSH:

git clone git@github.com:gocitygroup/GsignalX-Velocity.git
cd GsignalX-Velocity

Or download the ZIP: main.zip → Extract → open the folder that contains deploy\ and the .mq5 files.

Step 2 — Deploy into MT5

PowerShell alternative:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\deploy\Deploy-GSignalX.ps1 -ListTerminals
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\deploy\Deploy-GSignalX.ps1 `
  -TerminalDataPath "$env:APPDATA\MetaQuotes\Terminal\<HASH>" -Compile

Step 3 — File map (what landed where)

Data folder: MT5 → File → Open Data Folder → typically %APPDATA%\MetaQuotes\Terminal\<HASH>\.

Step 4 — First-run checklist

1. Tools → Options → Expert Advisors → allow automated trading
2. Toolbar Algo Trading = green / ON
3. Navigator → Services → Add / Start ProfitScouter_Service (Bus ON)
4. Start ProfitOpportunity_Grader (one instance)
5. Open roster charts; attach GsignalX_GocityGroup; Common → Allow Algo Trading
6. Match InpScoutInstanceID (EA) = InpInstanceID (Service), default 1
7. Run deploy\Confirm-After-Start.bat (or Confirm script Gate All)

Host this manual on GitHub Pages

1. Repo Settings → Pages → Source: Deploy from a branch
2. Branch: main (or your default) · Folder: /docs
3. Save — site URL serves docs/index.html → this manual
4. docs/.nojekyll is included so Pages serves files as-is

Offline: open docs\Gsignalx_Velocity_Users_Manual.html in any browser after clone — no build step.

Grow the fund from €10 / $10

ASAP floors and fleet size must scale with balance. Stock defaults (~5 currency units) assume roughly mid-hundreds of capital — micro accounts need the ladder below.

Growth ladder (sample)

€100 raw-spread sample (production preset)

Load from Inputs → Load:

• deploy/presets/GSignalX_100EUR_RawSpread.set
• deploy/presets/ProfitScouter_100EUR_RawSpread.set

Trading session timing

All hours are broker server time — not your local timezone unless they coincide. Prop desks standardise on one session window and STOP outside it.

Controls

Beginner daily session recipe

Sample session clock (illustrative)

Beginner automated day

Run this once on demo until the loop feels boring. Boring is the goal.

First settings that matter

Manual tools without full automation

• Read panel bias / Last signal; place your own tickets; keep Scouter for banking.
• Drag ProfitHarvest_Now for a one-shot bank (default account target 10; Confirm ON).
• Use HALT when walking away mid-book without wanting harvest to continue.

Advanced desk

Change these only when you can state the risk effect in one sentence.

Engine agreement

Stock often enables PP + SuperBollingerTrend; ATR SuperTrend optional.

FOLLOW vs WAIT

• FOLLOW — leave opens for Scouter; keep filling latest direction on free charts / fleet slots.
• WAIT — no new-direction entries while opposite-direction magic exposure remains. Prefer WAIT on news days or when book is mixed.

Fleet fill

InpFleetTargetPairs (default 4) counts a pair complete when it has an open position or working pending. Fill stops at coverage. Cooldown InpFleetFillCooldownSec default 10. Unfilled pendings age out (InpPendMaxAgeMin, stock 240; EUR100 preset 60 on M5).

Adverse-bar Auto (loser path)

• BUY + ≥3 selling closed bars (or SELL + buying) → close same-symbol losers only.
• Only profit-engine path with allowLoss. Toggle with chart AUTO.
• Match TF to charts (M5 desk → M5 adverse TF).
• InpAdverseRequireSignal true (default) — needs conflicting bus direction.

Profit lock

Arm when peak ≥ InpProfitLockArm; close on give-back to max(50% of peak, MinWinProfit). Align arm with ASAP floor on micro accounts.

Multi-terminal bus

Common Files: %APPDATA%\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files\GSignalX\bus\v1\

• GSignalX → signals/{symbol}.json + heartbeat
• Scouter → scouter/snapshot.json
• Grader → grades/latest.json (advisory — never executes)

Prop-firm behavioural playbook

Velocity optimises harvest process. Prop survival optimises drawdown, consistency, and session hygiene. Own both.

Daily loss budget (trader-owned)

Current builds do not auto-flatten on account loss. Set a personal / firm daily max (example: 2–3% for challenges). When hit: HALT, Algo Trading OFF, walk away. Log it.

Consistency habits

• Same session hours every trading day (hour filter).
• Same roster size unless laddering capital.
• Include commission + swap so floors match closed P/L reporting.
• News: STOP 5–10 minutes before high-impact prints; WAIT if mixed book.
• Friday: respect Friday stop; do not “squeeze one more.”

Link integrity

Performance checklist

Best use is process control. Run these checks until they are muscle memory.

Pre-session

• Balance vs ASAP floor / MinWin / Lock arm still laddered?
• Algo Trading ON only because you intend to trade?
• Scouter panel: ASAP floor, win floor, Adverse Auto TF correct?
• Fleet target ≤ your capital rung?
• Spreads normal on roster pairs?
• Executive desk reviewed on gsignalx.cloud if you use cloud conviction?

Mid-session

• PLAY only on pairs you are willing to hold through drill?
• No stale pendings older than your age policy?
• Mixed book → consider WAIT?
• After harvest, confirm march re-entries are intentional?
• Spread blowout → STOP new entries?

End of day

• STOP all Velocity charts (or HALT if leaving harvest paused)
• Log closed P/L cycles vs floor (process adherence, not just PnL)
• Note any catastrophe SL hits — usually means adverse Auto TF too slow or session quality poor
• Friday: confirm no weekend FX risk
• Algo Trading OFF if leaving the machine

Glossary

Version alignment

This manual matches toolkit behaviour as of GSignalX v1.20 / ProfitScouter v1.21 (entry sanctity, winners-only ASAP, adverse-bar Auto, strategic SL, FOLLOW/WAIT, fleet pending-complete). Prefer these defaults over older CREED appendix notes that still mention account loss-guard.
