Extraction warnings
Claim warnings
- RECOVERY SIZING: position size increases after losses (martingale/grid/averaging). Equity curves look smooth until the run that does not recover - judge it on worst-case exposure, not win rate.
Build warnings
- MT4_ONLY: the captured source is MQL4 / written for MetaTrader 4. It needs porting (order functions, indicator handles) before it runs on MT5.
