## ⚠️ Important Notes
|
|
|
|
### Confluence EA
|
|
1. **Current Issue**: Only taking LONG trades - need to verify short signals
|
|
2. **Best Pairs**: JPY pairs, USD pairs (clear trends)
|
|
3. **Avoid**: Exotic pairs, low liquidity times
|
|
|
|
### Grid EA
|
|
1. **Best For**: Ranging markets, Asian session
|
|
2. **Avoid**: Trending markets, high-impact news
|
|
3. **Risk**: Can accumulate many positions during strong trends
