Configuration Inputs

Page Sections

As we mentioned before, configuration inputs are the expert advisor inputs that influence the expert advisor execution and behavior. In order to access to these inputs, in the MetaTrader 4 terminal go to the Navigator pane (if Navigator pane is not visible, you can activate it by going to View > Navigator or by pressing Ctrl + N key combination). If JedeyeFX installation was successful, you should find JedeyeFX expert advisor in there, as shown in the picture below.
