Sådan bruges Panel SMC MT5 — Trin-for-trin guide

What Is Panel SMC MT5?

Panel SMC MT5 is a free semi-automatic Expert Advisor (EA) created by iCafeFX. It uses Smart Money Concepts (SMC) — the same institutional trading methodology used by banks and hedge funds — to generate high-probability trade signals on MetaTrader 5.

Unlike fully automated robots, Panel SMC MT5 sends you signals and lets you approve each trade. This gives you the best of both worlds: professional analysis with personal control.

Requirements Before You Start

• XM Trading Account — You need a free XM account opened through our partner link. This is how we provide the EA for free.
• MetaTrader 5 (MT5) — Download MT5 from XM after registering. Available for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.
• Minimum Deposit: $5 — XM has one of the lowest minimum deposits in the industry.
• Windows PC or VPS — For best performance, run MT5 on a Windows PC or VPS (Virtual Private Server).

Step 1: Open Your Free XM Account

Visit XM through our official partner link. Registration takes about 2 minutes:

1. Click our partner link to go to XM registration
2. Fill in your name, email, and phone number
3. Choose account type (Standard is recommended)
4. Verify your identity with a photo ID
5. Deposit minimum $5 to start trading

Important: You must open your XM account through our partner link to qualify for the free EA. This is how iCafeFX earns commission from XM to keep the EA free for you.

Step 2: Download and Install Panel SMC MT5

1. Go to our download page at siamcafe.net/download
2. Download Panel_SMC_MT5_byicafefx_V6_Final.zip (147 MB)
3. Extract the ZIP file
4. Copy the EA file to your MT5 data folder:
   File → Open Data Folder → MQL5 → Experts
5. Restart MetaTrader 5
6. Find Panel SMC MT5 in the Navigator panel under Expert Advisors
7. Drag it onto any chart

Step 3: Configure the EA

When you attach Panel SMC MT5 to a chart, a settings panel appears:

• Risk per trade — Start with 1-2% of your account balance
• Pairs to monitor — The EA works best with EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and XAUUSD (gold)
• Signal approval mode — Keep this ON (semi-auto mode) for best results
• Notification settings — Enable push notifications so you never miss a signal

Step 4: Start Trading

Once configured, the EA will:

1. Analyze the market using Smart Money Concepts
2. Display signals on your panel with entry, take-profit, and stop-loss levels
3. Wait for your approval before opening any trade
4. Manage the trade automatically once approved (trailing stop, break-even, etc.)

Tips for Best Performance

• Trade during London and New York sessions — Most liquidity and best SMC patterns
• Start with a demo account — Practice for 1-2 weeks before going live
• Don't overtrade — Quality over quantity. 2-3 good trades per day is enough
• Keep MT5 running — The EA needs MT5 open to monitor markets and send signals
• Use a VPS — For 24/5 operation, consider a VPS so MT5 runs even when your PC is off
