Before you begin
Review the Trading Modes page and your account risk limits. Do not change modes while a DowGold position or pending order is open.
Follow these steps
- 1
Use Standard Gold when you want the measured core strategy with one Gold order at a time.
- 2
Treat Turbo Gold as a separate opt-in strategy with more opportunities and greater exposure and drawdown risk.
- 3
Review US30 and Silver separately because each market has a different role and risk profile.
- 4
Turbo Gold is included with every current paid license. Enable only the other markets available to your package and suitable for the account rules you must follow.
- 5
After changing a mode, confirm the selected setting and connection status before leaving the terminal unattended.
Expected result
Only the intended modes are enabled, the terminal remains connected and the selected exposure fits the account rules you are responsible for following.
