Strong trend
Check: structure intact? Risk: treating every pullback as reversal. Manage: TRAIL / hold. Avoid: noise CUT. Invalid: structure break.
Gocity Group · GSignalX Velocity Premium
Velocity Premium Trader Manual
A commercial, prop-safe MT5 desk for scalping, day trading, and swing — structured entries, winners-only harvest, and soft STOP that never flattens your book.

Who closesProfitScouter only (BANK / CUT / FLAT)
Default lotFIXED 0.01 · magic 20260904
DO NOT OVERRIDE · Desk contract
GSignalX opens · ProfitScouter closes · STOP ≠ FLAT. Themes never change risk. Manage the reason for the trade, not merely floating P/L.
Public signal foundation · TradingView
Follow the published trend-following Pine script while you learn the desk: GSignalX on TradingView. MT5 Velocity executes Topology A; TradingView is the visual reference for the signal foundation.
Best use · Topology A
- Trade Center DeskExecute ON owns fills · Service stopped or Yield ON · no Chart EA entries on the same magic.
- ProfitScouter owns exits · desk PLAY/STOP never closes tickets · keep CASH on for scalps.
- EQ OFF unless you want a floating-DD brake · practice packs $20/$50/$100 · VERIFY Telegram until green.
Start with one liquid FX pair on M5, Topology A, Profit CASH sized to your book, and STOP at session end. Read Deployment then Profit Scouting UI.
ScalpDay — skip swing until the desk feels boring and under control.
Add fleet management on Trade Center, practice coach 20/50/100, TRAIL when winners pull back, and Telegram VERIFY. Use Multisymbol Dashboard + Best Use.
ScalpDay — London–NY focus.
Prop CLEAR discipline, dual-track ARM, optional Premium Order Flow / Volume Profile (OFF by default), and SignalJoin freshness. See OF/VP and Controls & defaults.
DaySwing — M15 patience + prop rules.
Risk disclosure
Trading involves risk of loss, including loss of capital. This manual describes software behaviour for MetaTrader 5. It is not investment advice, not a performance guarantee, and not a substitute for your prop firm’s rules. Practise on demo before live capital.
Executive vs Velocity Premium
Executive (cloud)
Conviction and confluence on the GSignalX platform — decide what the market wants before you size risk.
Velocity Premium (this desk)
Local MT5 entries + ProfitScouter cash floors. Execute the session, bank closed P/L with process, get the ping on Telegram.
Desk community
Channel for macro day-trading drivers; group for peer feedback; WhatsApp for live meet-ups.
How to navigate
Gold tabs and the left rail jump chapters. Keyboard ← / → moves sections. Print expands every chapter. Your last chapter is remembered on this browser.
System information
How the Premium desk works
Two engines only: GSignalX opens risk; ProfitScouter banks winners. Bus schema stays v1. Current cut: Velocity Premium 2.17.
RISK CHECK · System
One magic · Topology A · Scouter owns exits. FIXED 0.01 is a practice lot default, not a claim that risk-per-trade is correct for every account. Verify margin and contract specs from the instrument.
Signal foundation reference
The public chart publication documents the trend-following signal idea: TradingView · GSignalX is a trend-following. Use it to understand direction bias — Scouter still owns exits on MT5.
Senior desk rule
PLAY / STOP / HALT never close tickets. Only ProfitScouter (or the one-shot Harvest script) closes. STOP ≠ FLAT.
Components (trader view)
| Program | Role | Closes trades? |
|---|---|---|
| Multisymbol Dashboard (Trade Center) | Fleet book, PLAY/STOP, DeskExecute fills | No |
| GSignalX Service | Headless roster scan; yields when Desk owns magic | No |
| Chart / Single Signal (GocityGroup) | Strip + optional chart panel — prefer read-only under Topology A | No |
| ProfitScouter | ASAP / BANK / CUT / FLAT harvest | Yes |
| Opportunity Grader | Ranks only | No |
Premium 2.15–2.17 in plain language
- Order Flow & Volume Profile — optional “where to care / whether to act.” Master switch stays OFF until you arm it. Full chapter: Volume Profile & Order Flow.
- Shared signal decision — Trade Center, Service, and Chart agree more often (less mixed direction).
- Fresh pairs — roster watchdog (~30s) flags stale calculations instead of trading old ones silently.
- Trade life story — cleaner signal → filled → managed → closed path for Telegram and journals.
OF/VP quick rule
Volume Profile = levels. Order flow = permission at those levels. FX is usually PROXY (context only). Leave Premium OFF until Topology A feels boring.
M5 · one liquid FX · CASH ON · Raw preferred · busy London–NY. Keep Profit CASH realistic for micro books.
M5 · 1–2 majors · session ~07–20 · practice caps 2/3/4 trades for $20/$50/$100. STOP when day loss tip hits.
M15 · fewer fills · coach caps 1/1/2 · same Topology A · let grades and session band guide; do not overtrade.
Profit CASH & Loss CASH — best use
Profit CASH is the hard bank floor (stock +100 for mid-size books). Loss CASH stock −100 stays OFF until you arm LOSS ON — no surprise flatten.
On active trade session · Profit CASH
Do not treat the first tick of green as a bank. Size the floor to your book, then let CASH (or TRAIL) finish the job. Panic BANK is “closing profit too early.”
EXIT DECISION · Profit CASH
Structured bank = pre-planned Profit CASH floor. Emotional early bank = panic BANK on first green. Prefer TRAIL / VPOF-BANK to let profit run between floors.
TRAIL — best use
TRAIL protects pullbacks between cash floors. It does not replace Profit CASH. Default seed is OFF — turn on when winners keep giving back before the bank.
On active trade session · TRAIL
TRAIL is how you close profit late and let profit run between cash floors. Arm it when winners keep giving back — not as a substitute for Profit CASH.
EXIT DECISION · TRAIL
TRAIL protects pullbacks without replacing CASH. Arm when winners give back. Do not move stops emotionally or remove protection because of hope.
Deep coach: Adaptive Trade Management.
Premium · Volume Profile & Order Flow
Where to care · whether to act
Volume Profile marks the price levels that matter (POC, value area, HVN/LVN). Order flow decides whether to act at those levels (absorb, imbalance, acceptance). Classic engines (PP / SuperTrend / SuperBollinger) still set direction bias. Master switch stays OFF until you arm Premium on purpose.
On active trade session · structure
While a ticket is open, treat VP levels as the live support / resistance map. BALANCE → fade edges carefully; TREND → honour LVN pullbacks; do not bank into nearby resistance on the first push.
MARKET CONDITION · OF/VP
BALANCE ≠ guaranteed fade. TREND ≠ guaranteed continuation. Levels are decision areas, not turning-point guarantees. PROXY FX: no absorb banks/cuts.
INDICATOR LIMITATION · VP / Order Flow
Volume Profile marks where to care; order flow may allow or veto. Neither predicts certainty. Lag, sparse fires (≈5–15% of M5), and thin tape produce false confidence — especially mid-range with no level.
TradingView vs Premium OF/VP
TradingView publishes the trend-following signal foundation (open script). Premium OF/VP is an optional MT5 overlay (where to care / whether to act) — leave it OFF until Topology A feels boring.
Two different “VPOF” buttons
- Chart / Desk TRACK · VPOF|OFF — entry participation. Does not close tickets.
- ProfitScouter VPOF|OFF — structure exit arm. When ON, pauses dollar CASH/LAYER/TRAIL that cycle.
How the algorithm works
- Master OFF? Classic Velocity only — no OF/VP fill skips. Stop here if you are learning the desk.
- Tape quality — EXCHANGE / LAST (full rules) · PROXY (FX profile context only) · NONE (abstain).
- Build profile — prior session POC, VAH, VAL, HVN, LVN + developing session profile.
- Refresh flow — GATE uses a short tape window; FILTER/VOTE/SOLO roll M1 absorb into closed M5.
- Regime — BALANCE (fade edges) · TREND (LVN pullback, never fade) · TRANSITION (accept / fail).
- Join mode — GATE / FILTER / VOTE / SOLO decides how VPOF may allow, veto, vote, or lead.
- Class policy (2.17) — FX / CMD / Crypto can use different modes; FX under PROXY forces classic drive and abstains on VOTE/SOLO.
Sparse by design
Expect fires on roughly 5–15% of M5 bars. Mid-range with no level reads as noise (“not at a level”). Forcing more fires usually means you are over-tuning.
Modes — what they do
| Mode | Plain meaning | Use when | Ignore when |
|---|---|---|---|
| GATE | Engines agree → must be at a VP level → OF allows or vetoes | First Premium arm; want confirmation | You need denser fills; FULL tape rare |
| FILTER | Engines lead; VPOF can kill the opposite story | Best default for FX PROXY | You need VPOF to create trades |
| VOTE | VPOF is a 4th voter (PROXY abstains) | Liquid FULL crypto / CMD | FX PROXY; thin tape |
| SOLO | VPOF alone may arm (still spread/fleet/prop) | Advanced FULL tape only | FX / PROXY / beginners |
PROXY vs FULL — what makes it right
| Quality | Typical symbols | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| EXCHANGE | Crypto / CMD with real buy/sell volume | Full absorb / delta hard rules |
| LAST | Non-FX with last trade | Full rules × confidence haircut (0.85) |
| PROXY | All FX spot | Profile context only — no hard absorb/delta tape |
| NONE | No usable tape | Abstain |
Do not treat PROXY as exchange tape
On FX, Volume Profile is approximate context. VOTE/SOLO abstain. Scouter will not invent absorb cuts on PROXY. Reverse structure cuts can still fire if direction/confidence are clear.
What makes a setup right
Good
- Price at prior VAL / VAH / POC / HVN / LVN
- Quality EXCHANGE or LAST
- Regime matches the rule (fade in BALANCE, pullback in TREND)
- Confidence ≥ 0.45 (often higher under SOLO entry rules)
- Outside session open/close edge (15 min) on non-crypto
Bad — ignore
- Mid-value, no level
- SOLO on FX PROXY
- Aggression through a level with no absorb (GATE veto)
- Chasing histogram / retuning row ticks to force fires
- Scouter VPOF ON expecting FX absorb banks
Ignore Premium. Leave InpOFVPEnable=false. Learn PLAY/STOP, FIXED 0.01, Profit CASH. Treat TRACK VPOF|OFF and Scouter VPOF|OFF as “not yet.”
ScalpDay — dollar harvest only.
Enable Premium + GATE (or FX FILTER). Watch TRADE INFO quality label. TRACK DUAL · LEVELS on · STAND DOWN around news. Keep Scouter VPOF OFF. Do not retune row ticks, VA%, or imbalance.
Day — FX FILTER; crypto FILTER→VOTE when quality is FULL.
Class overrides: FX FILTER, Crypto VOTE/SOLO. Entry rules left at 0 → 2× native confidence/cooldown. Scouter VPOF ON for structure exits on FULL symbols only. Self-check fire rate stays sparse.
Swing — GATE/FILTER + structure bank at VA/POC can replace dollar chase.
How to ignore it (safe)
- Leave master
InpOFVPEnable=false— desk matches Velocity legacy fills. - Or leave enable ON but set chart/desk TRACK → VPOF|OFF — levels may draw; entries do not participate.
- Scouter: keep VPOF|OFF so CASH/LAYER/TRAIL own exits.
- LEVELS / HIDE is cosmetic only — hiding lines does not turn Premium off.

Risk · Adaptive Trade Management
Risk-aware trading decisions
This chapter is a decision framework, not a promise of profits. Every instruction answers: what is the opportunity — and what can invalidate it, cause unexpected loss, or must be monitored before, during, and after execution.
Core principles
- Manage the reason for the trade, not merely the current profit or loss.
- An open position must continue to earn its right to remain open.
- Ask “Has the thesis changed?” — not only “Am I green or red?”
Risk framework layers (A–Q)
Every relevant desk decision connects to one or more layers. Tap a layer for the section that deepens it.
A Market / asset
B Instrument
C Market condition
D Timeframe
E Signal
F Entry
G Position sizing
H Stop-loss
I Take-profit
J Open-trade
K Event / news
L Liquidity / execution
M Leverage / margin
N Correlation / portfolio
O Technology / bot
P Human behavior
Q Exit / profit protection
Close loss early when structure is broken
Close profit late not the first green
Let profit run TRAIL / structure bank
Market-condition engine
When volatility or structure changes, reassess size, stop distance, spread, slippage, and expected risk — do not use blanked “never trade volatility” rules.
Weak trend
Check: momentum fading? Risk: overconfidence. Manage: tighten plan, smaller ambition. Avoid: adding size. Invalid: failed continuation.
Pullback
Check: pullback vs break. Risk: early loss cut. Manage: hold if thesis intact. Avoid: emotional FLAT. Invalid: level acceptance against you.
Breakout
Check: confirmation / retest. Risk: false break. Manage: wait acceptance. Avoid: chasing first spike. Invalid: reclaim of range.
False breakout
Check: sweep then reject. Risk: trapped entry. Manage: CUT if thesis dead. Avoid: averaging in hope. Invalid: n/a — exit plan first.
Range
Check: S/R boundaries. Risk: directional overfit. Manage: fade edges only with plan. Avoid: every crossover as trend. Invalid: true break + hold.
Consolidation
Check: compression vs expansion. Risk: fake breakouts. Manage: reduce confidence. Avoid: forced entries. Invalid: expansion against thesis.
Expansion
Check: vol and spread. Risk: slippage. Manage: resize; widen awareness. Avoid: same size as quiet markets. Invalid: untradable spread.
High volatility
Check: stop distance vs budget. Risk: noise stops. Manage: smaller size or stand down. Avoid: revenge adds. Invalid: risk > budget.
Low volatility
Check: expectancy of movement. Risk: overtrading chop. Manage: patience. Avoid: forcing scalp frequency. Invalid: no edge.
News-driven
Check: calendar / event. Risk: gap, spread, stop quality. Manage: reduce or flat new risk. Avoid: trusting indicators as usual. Invalid: unpriced event risk.
Illiquid
Check: depth / session. Risk: slip and reject. Manage: wait or micro size. Avoid: large market orders. Invalid: cannot define exit.
Session transition
Check: handoff (e.g. Asia→LDN). Risk: spread spike. Manage: pause new entries. Avoid: Asia FX micro-book scalps. Invalid: unstable book.
Gap / open
Check: open print vs prior close. Risk: skipped stops. Manage: re-validate thesis. Avoid: blind chase. Invalid: gap through invalidation.
Abnormal spread
Check: SPREAD gate / broker quote. Risk: toxic fill. Manage: wait. Avoid: IGN blindly. Invalid: cannot meet risk budget.
Close loss early / close profit late
Valid early loss exit
Thesis broken · structure invalid · adverse AUTO / CUT / VPOF-CUT. Reason changed.
Emotional early loss
Noise fear · revenge · hope-averaging without a rule · casually arming Loss CASH.
Structured profit
Profit CASH floor · TRAIL · VPOF-BANK at VA/POC. Pre-planned.
Greed / fear profit
First-green BANK · moving TP from greed · holding on hope after invalidation.
Human-behavior traps
Moving stop emotionally · removing stop · sizing up after a loss · sizing up only because green · closing on temporary vol · revenge trading · averaging losers without a predefined rule.
Support / resistance & chart observation
Zones beat exact prices. Breakout needs confirmation; false breaks and liquidity sweeps are common. Distance to invalidation and volatility-adjusted positioning matter. Support ≠ guaranteed bounce. Resistance ≠ guaranteed rejection.
- Support zone
- Resistance zone
- Trend consolidation (pullback)
- Market condition (ranging / trending)
On active trade session — observe first, then choose hold · TRAIL · BANK · or CUT.
Trend · pullback · consolidation
- Trend ≠ guaranteed continuation
- Pullback ≠ guaranteed reversal
- Breakout ≠ guaranteed follow-through
- Consolidation ≠ guaranteed breakout
Signals, price action, volatility, and market structure must agree with your plan — especially under Topology A where Scouter, not the indicator, closes risk.
Signal-specific risk
SIGNAL VALIDATION
Signal generation ≠ trade execution. Check direction, timeframe, age, market condition, invalidation, spread, and event risk. Do not enter an old signal after conditions materially changed.
SIGNAL VALIDATION · TradingView
While validating a signal, open the published foundation chart: TradingView · GSignalX trend-following. Signal generation ≠ execution — age, condition, and invalidation still apply.
Before acting on a signal: direction · timeframe · strength if shown · condition · entry zone · invalidation · stop/target logic · R:R context · spread · event risk · signal age · whether it remains valid.
Bot / EA / automation risk
BOT SAFETY · ProfitScouter
Strategy risk (thesis) · execution risk (spread/slippage/rejects) · technology risk (terminal, VPS, Instance ID, bus freshness). A good plan can still fail on tech — confirm START, magic, and VERIFY.
Also watch: broker/terminal/API failure · stale price · symbol mismatch · wrong lot calc · duplicate/partial/rejected orders · session closure · VPS · bot restart · state sync. Strategy risk ≠ execution risk ≠ technology risk.
Trade lifecycle (phases 1–9)
| Phase | Monitor | Permitted | Prohibited |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Pre-trade | Session, spread, event | Prepare arms / size | Blind PLAY |
| 2 Signal validation | Age, condition | Wait / cancel | Chase stale signal |
| 3 Entry | Fill quality | DeskExecute fill | Duplicate magic entries |
| 4 Initial protection | Scouter START | CASH/TRAIL plan | No exit plan |
| 5 Open monitoring | S/R, condition | Observe | Emotional FLAT |
| 6 Profit management | Peak / trail | TRAIL / CASH / VPOF-BANK | First-green panic BANK |
| 7 Drawdown | Thesis vs noise | CUT if invalid | Revenge add / hope average |
| 8 Exit decision | Reason changed? | BANK/CUT/FLAT confirm | Desk STOP as flatten |
| 9 Post-trade | Journal | Review | Performance myths |
Position sizing
POSITION-SIZE CHECK
Distinguish position size · risk per trade · margin used · maximum possible loss. High leverage ≠ higher acceptable risk. Verify tick/pip/point value and margin from the current instrument specification.
Size should depend on equity, risk budget, stop distance, instrument value, contract size, tick/pip value, leverage, margin, volatility, correlation, and max portfolio exposure. Prefer:
risk_money ≈ account_equity × risk_fraction · then size from stop distance and verified tick value — never from leverage alone.
Multi-timeframe risk
- Higher TF — context, structure, major zones
- Middle TF — setup / pullback structure
- Lower TF — entry / execution
A lower-timeframe signal must not silently override higher-timeframe structure unless your written strategy says so (Velocity styles: scalp M5 · day M5 · swing M15).
Event / news risk
Central banks, inflation, employment, GDP, rates, commodity events, geopolitics, crypto-specific shocks, and equities earnings can change volatility, spreads, liquidity, slippage, structure, stop quality, and signal reliability. Technical tools are not equally reliable in extremes.
Correlation / portfolio risk
PORTFOLIO / CORRELATION
Fleet FX longs can stack EUR/GBP/USD exposure. Gold + USD + related CMD can hide concentration. Evaluate exposure across positions — not only risk per ticket.
Market-to-market matrix
Qualitative differences only. Contract size, margin, hours, and fees: verify from the current instrument specification.
| Concept | FX | Commodities | Crypto | Indices | Equities | CFDs | Futures |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sessions | LDN–NY focus | Contract/session aware | 24h | Exchange hours | Exchange hours | Broker hours | Contract hours |
| Gaps / overnight | Weekend gap risk | Rollover / gap | Weekend narrative | Open gaps common | Open gaps / earnings | Broker-dependent | Session gaps |
| Spread / liquidity | PROXY tape typical | Wider floors possible | Noise + variable | Session-dependent | Name-dependent | Broker quote | Pit/electronic |
| Desk tip | FILTER; no absorb exits | Structure-heavy | FULL→VOTE/SOLO possible | Respect opens | Event calendar | Spec before size | Spec tick value |
| Common failure | Asia micro overtrade | Ignoring rollover | First-spike BANK | Chasing open | Stale earnings signal | Wrong contract spec | Wrong multiplier |
If green too soon
Do not BANK the first tick. Wait for Profit CASH or a calm pullback.
If red feels scary
Noise or broken structure? Noise → hold. Broken → CUT.
Always
Scouter closes. Desk STOP does not flatten.
Map notes → CASH / TRAIL / AUTO / Loss CASH / VPOF exit. Use the context strip (asset · condition · manual/signal/bot) before mid-session decisions.
Scouter cycle: VPOF exit → adverse Auto → Loss CASH → ATR TRAIL → cash harvest. When Scouter VPOF ON, dollar harvest pauses that cycle. PROXY never invents absorb cuts.
Scalp CASH ON · START ON · size floors for micro books · do not bank the first spike.
Day TRAIL when winners fade · AUTO ON · Loss CASH OFF unless prop requires · re-check condition mid-session.
Swing Optional Scouter VPOF structure bank · let consolidations work unless thesis breaks.
Manual Trade Risk Check
MANUAL TRADE RISK CHECK · Best use
- Market condition identified
- Signal / thesis still valid
- Invalidation defined
- Stop / exit arms defined (Scouter)
- Size from risk budget (not leverage alone)
- Event / spread checked
- Correlated exposure checked
- Emotional override detected?
POST-TRADE REVIEW
Document: condition at entry, invalidation used, whether exit was structural or emotional, correlated exposure, and any tech incident. No performance guarantees — improve decision quality.
Desk contract (never forget)
GSignalX opens · ProfitScouter closes · STOP ≠ FLAT · two VPOF switches (entry TRACK vs Scouter exit). Audit notes:

Deployment
Windows deploy (non-tech)
Get from ZIP to a live Premium desk without engineering. Full picture: DEPLOYMENT.md · DEPLOYMENT_RUNBOOK.md.
EXECUTION / TECHNOLOGY WARNING
Algo Trading ON · Instance ID + magic matched · Confirm-After-Start · Telegram VERIFY. Broker disconnect, stale roster, rejected closes, and VPS failure are technology risks — separate from strategy quality.
Five moves
- Clone or unzip GsignalX-Velocity.
- Run
deploy\Click-and-Run-Deploy.bat(or Clean-and-Deploy after upgrades). - In MT5: Algo Trading ON.
- Start ProfitScouter, then attach Trade Center (DeskExecute ON).
- Run
Confirm-After-Start.batand press Telegram VERIFY until green.
Demo first. One FX symbol. FIXED 0.01. Leave Premium Order Flow OFF. Join the desk community if deploy feels stuck — share redacted CONFIRM notes only.
Load practice pack .set for $20/$50/$100. Keep Service Yield ON if both Desk and Service run. Confirm themes are cosmetic only.
Topology B (headless Service) only when you do not need the desk panel. Dual-track and OF/VP stay opt-in. PersistPeaks remains on so peaks survive restarts.
Profit Scouting UI
ProfitScouter — bank winners
Watches open positions and banks at a money floor. Never opens trades. The profit path never closes losers.
On active trade session
Observe support / resistance, pullbacks, and ranging vs trending before BANK or CUT. Scouter closes tickets — Desk PLAY/STOP never flattens.
BOT SAFETY · ProfitScouter
Strategy risk (thesis) · execution risk (spread/slippage/rejects) · technology risk (terminal, VPS, Instance ID, bus freshness). A good plan can still fail on tech — confirm START, magic, and VERIFY.
Controls that matter
| Control | Meaning | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| CASH | One floor for account / pair / position | ON for scalps |
| LAYER | Classic layers + trail window | When you want give-back rules |
| START / STOP | Arm / pause harvest | START on after attach |
| AUTO | Adverse-bar cut of same-symbol losers | Default ON · min hold 15 min |
| TRAIL | Protect pullbacks between floors | Default OFF |
| LOSS ON/OFF | Account Loss CASH | Default OFF |
| BANK + / CUT − / FLAT | Confirm closes | Always available |
| THEME | NIGHT · SLATE · GRAPH · DAWN | Look only — no risk change |
Scalp CASH ON · START ON · learn BANK/CUT/FLAT with confirm. Size Profit CASH down for $20/$50 books — do not keep stock 100 on a micro account.
Day Add TRAIL when winners peak then fade. Keep AUTO ON for loser hygiene. Loss CASH stays OFF unless your prop plan requires it.
Swing Optional structure-exit arm (VPOF) is separate from dollar CASH. Manual BANK/CUT/FLAT still work. Leave OF/VP OFF until PROXY vs FULL is clear.
Practice ASAP floors (micro)
| Band | Raw ASAP / lock / minWin | Standard |

| $100 | 1.00 / 1.00 / 0.50 | 1.50 / 1.50 / 0.75 |
Scouter + Volume Profile / Order Flow
ProfitScouter’s VPOF button is an exit arm — independent from chart/desk entry Premium.
| State | What happens |
|---|---|
| VPOF|OFF (default) | Normal CASH / LAYER / TRAIL dollar harvest |
| VPOF ON | Structure exits only that cycle — banks near VA/POC (VPOF-BANK), cuts on reverse / FULL absorb (VPOF-CUT). Dollar CASH/LAYER/TRAIL pause |
Use vs ignore
- Ignore (recommended first): leave VPOF|OFF — especially scalps and FX PROXY.
- Use: day/swing on FULL crypto/CMD after levels prove stable; structure bank instead of chasing stock +100.
- Manual BANK / CUT / FLAT always still work.
- PROXY FX will not invent absorb cuts — do not turn VPOF ON expecting tape magic on EURUSD.
Single Signal UI
Chart panel & roster strip
See direction, PLAY state, and lot chip on the chart. Under Topology A, treat the chart as read-only — Trade Center owns the magic.
SIGNAL VALIDATION
Signal generation ≠ trade execution. Check direction, timeframe, age, market condition, invalidation, spread, and event risk. Do not enter an old signal after conditions materially changed.
Compare on TradingView
Open the published script beside the chart strip: signal foundation on TradingView. Under Topology A the MT5 chart stays read-only for fills.
Chart signal panel
- PLAY · STOP · HALT — same meaning as Trade Center.
- FOLLOW | WAIT — FOLLOW keeps filling latest direction; WAIT avoids flipping while opposite exposure remains.
- FollowDir — FOLLOW · BUY · SELL · WAIT for this symbol.
- SPREAD | IGN · FIXED | AUTOLOT · EQ OFF→5→10→20.
- THEME and Vision (Near / Comfort / Far) — appearance only.
Roster strip
Carousel ADD / SWAP / REM with per-row STATE. No PLAY / EQ / PROP on the strip — keep control on Trade Center.
Attach on M5 for visibility. Do not enable chart entries when DeskExecute already fills the same magic.
Use strip to watch fleet state while Trade Center runs the book. Themes sync cosmetically per host.
Dual-track: TRACK · ARM ▲/▼ · STAND DOWN · LEVELS. Arming is not an order. PLAY/STOP stay independent of TRACK. Full OF/VP chapter: Volume Profile & Order Flow.
Single Signal + OF/VP
On the chart panel, Premium participation is the dual-track row:
- TRACK cycles OFF → AUTO → MAN → DUAL. Caption VPOF|OFF means entries do not use VPOF (levels may still draw).
- ARM ▲ / ARM ▼ — arming is not an order; engine still validates.
- STAND DOWN — pause entries for a cool-off window (default ~20 min).
- LEVELS | HIDE — drawings only; never changes join logic or closes tickets.
Status line shows regime, confidence, quality (EXCHANGE/LAST/PROXY), and reason. Under Topology A, keep chart entries off the shared magic — use the strip to read OF/VP while Trade Center fills.
Ignore path
TRACK → VPOF|OFF (or master enable false). You can still study POC/VA lines with LEVELS on.
Multisymbol Dashboard UI
Trade Center
Your fleet cockpit — categories, START rows, PLAY strip, practice coach, and Prop locks. This is where Premium desks live day to day.
PORTFOLIO / CORRELATION
Fleet FX longs can stack EUR/GBP/USD exposure. Gold + USD + related CMD can hide concentration. Evaluate exposure across positions — not only risk per ticket.

Multisymbol Dashboard + OF/VP
Trade Center shares the same Premium inputs and dual-track controls as the chart:

Fleet tip
STAND DOWN the noisy symbol; do not disable the whole desk. REM or SUSPEND pairs that stay PROXY-confused if you armed SOLO by mistake.
System UI Best Use · Premium 2.17
Run the desk the senior way
Topology A is the production default. Themes never change risk. One magic across entries and exits.
MANUAL TRADE RISK CHECK · Best use
- Market condition identified
- Signal / thesis still valid
- Invalidation defined
- Stop / exit arms defined (Scouter)
- Size from risk budget (not leverage alone)
- Event / spread checked
- Correlated exposure checked
- Emotional override detected?
Topology
| Mode | DeskExecute | Service | When |
|---|---|---|---|
| A (preferred) | ON | Stopped | Interactive Trade Center owns fills |
| B (headless) | OFF | Running | Unattended VPS / no desk panel |
| Both | ON | Yield ON | Service idles while Desk heartbeat owns |
Cross-surface hygiene
One magic · no Chart EA fills on same magic · REM unused · STOP clears pendings · Scouter owns exits · EQ OFF unless floating-DD brake wanted.
UI surfaces
- Trade Center — fleet + PLAY
- Chart Signal panel — optional
- Chart roster strip — watch only
- ProfitScouter — exits
LDN·NY · CASH ON · Raw · coach caps 4/6/8 on 20/50/100. Standard accounts: scalp discouraged below ~$100 without practice floors.
Session ~07–20 · avoid Asia FX for small books · caps 2/3/4 · day loss / profit bank from practice table.
M15 · fewer fills · caps 1/1/2 · same FX set · patience over activity.
Performance checklist
Desk health — before, during, after
Tick items as you go — saved on this browser. Commercial desks run the same checklist every session.
Pre-session
- Algo Trading ON · Trade Center + Scouter attached
- One magic 20260904 across Desk / Service / Scouter
- Topology A: DeskExecute ON · Service stopped or Yield
- Profit CASH sized to book · CASH mode ON for scalp
- Telegram VERIFY green (or intentional quiet mode)
Mid-session
On active trade session · mid-checklist
Before you touch BANK / CUT: support zone · resistance zone · pullback vs break · ranging or trending. Close loss early only when the thesis is broken — not on noise.
MANUAL TRADE RISK CHECK · Mid-session
- Open tickets: S/R · pullback · ranging/trending
- Has the reason for the trade changed?
- Valid early cut vs noise
- Structured bank vs first-green BANK
- Scouter START on · Loss CASH still intentional
- PLAY only while you are watching · STOP if distracted
- Unused pairs REM or SUSPEND · crypto overnight SUSPEND
- Scouter START ON · winners banking · no surprise LOSS arm
- Prop soft STOP understood — tickets still open
- Open tickets: support · resistance · pullback · ranging/trending checked
End of day
- Desk STOP · confirm no unwanted pendings
- Review closed P/L vs Profit CASH plan
- Redacted notes to community group if needed — never tokens
Symptom → action
| Symptom | First check |
|---|---|
| No new entries | PLAY? Prop lock? SPREAD gate? Fleet START rows? |
| Winners not banking | Scouter START? Profit CASH too high? CASH vs LAYER? |
| Mixed chart vs desk direction | Same magic? Chart entries disabled? Freshness? |
| Telegram silent | VERIFY · ChatId /start · quiet overnight window |
Controls & defaults cheat sheet
Defaults that ship
Velocity Premium 2.17 stock values. Change with intent — especially cash floors on micro books.
On active trade session · arms map
Premature bank → raise awareness before BANK, size Profit CASH, prefer TRAIL / Scouter VPOF-BANK. Premature loss cut → keep Loss CASH OFF; use adverse AUTO / structure CUT only when invalid.
POSITION-SIZE CHECK
Distinguish position size · risk per trade · margin used · maximum possible loss. High leverage ≠ higher acceptable risk. Verify tick/pip/point value and margin from the current instrument specification.
POST-TRADE REVIEW
Document: condition at entry, invalidation used, whether exit was structural or emotional, correlated exposure, and any tech incident. No performance guarantees — improve decision quality.

Appendix
Extras, glossary, license
Nested paths that used to be top tabs — Growth, Sessions, Telegram, Prop, Samples — live here so the main chrome stays focused.
Fund growth ladder
20 → 50 → 100 → 250+: reload practice packs; raise ASAP family; % risk starts to matter above ~€200–250. Min lot dominates below ~$200.
Session timing
Prefer London–NY overlap for FX scalps and day books. Avoid Asia FX for small practice books. Friday FX stop default hour 20.
Telegram alerts
Soft VERIFY — Verified when ≥1 numeric chat receives the probe; dead chats are skipped. Trader-live: deals + PROP. Investor-quiet: DAILY + PROP. See also RELEASE_v2.17_SignalJoin_Lifecycle.md.
Prop behaviour
Soft STOP never flattens. PLAY alone does not clear Prop lock — use PROP CLEAR. Challenge equity DD only when you set it. Stock Prop max equity DD 0 = OFF.
Sample setups
Practice $20 / $50 / $100: size Profit CASH down for micro books · Topology A + Scouter CASH ON is the default sample desk. Deploy notes: DEPLOYMENT.md.
