        MA_CROSS - Entry when two moving averages cross each other

        PIVOT - Entry at pivot levels (daily support/resistance)

        RSI - Entry based on RSI indicator (overbought/oversold)

        MACD - Entry when MACD lines cross

        STOCHASTIC - Entry based on stochastic oscillator

    SAME_CANDLE_SERIE - Entry after a series of same-colored candles

    Only MA direction - If enabled, the bot trades only when moving averages indicate a trend (fast MA must be above slow MA for long, below for short).

    Other TF MA direction - Additional trend filter from another timeframe. The bot will only open a position when the trend is consistent on both timeframes. OFF option disables this filter.

TAKE PROFIT:

    TP type - Method of calculating profits for closing:

            USD - Closes at a specified dollar amount

            PER_DIRECTION - Separately for long and short

            GLOBAL - Combined for all positions (long + short)

    TP $ - Profit amount in dollars at which all positions are closed.

GRID:

    Grid level pips - Distance in pips between consecutive grid positions. The larger, the less frequently it adds positions.

    No grid on same candle - If enabled, does not open more than one grid position on the same candle (prevents too dense grid).

    Grid orders short - Maximum number of grid positions for short. Value 0 disables grid for short.

    Grid orders long - Maximum number of grid positions for long. Value 0 disables grid for long.

PYRAMID:

    Trailing SL trigger wave - Which moving average is used as reference point for trailing stop:
