LATTICE COMMAND™

Discover with Lattice Vision (free utility). Deploy with Lattice Command. One engine. Two instruments. One continuous workflow.

Lattice Command is a professional automated execution and risk-control system for MetaTrader 5. It manages structured order placement, aggregation, and lifecycle control using predefined parameters, with emphasis on capital protection, operational stability, and execution consistency. The software operates strictly within user-defined limits and does not provide predictive signals or discretionary advice.

THE LATTICE METHODOLOGY

Most MT5 tools force a choice: use a visual analysis environment that does not trade, or use an execution environment you cannot see into. The gap between them is where traders get hurt — configuring blind, hoping the tester matches, deploying parameters they do not actually trust.

The Lattice methodology closes that gap. Research and execution sharing one engine, one logic, one set of numbers. Configure in Lattice Vision. Export your .SET file. Deploy with Lattice Command. What you see is what you get, down to the tick.

START WITH LATTICE VISION — FREE

Lattice Vision is the free companion utility for parameter discovery. Use it to find your distances, lot sizes, ghost count, signal conditions, filter settings, and TP targets across historical data before deploying with Command. The parameters transfer directly via one-click .SET export — the fidelity is already matched. Download Lattice Vision free from the MQL5 Marketplace, then come back when you are ready to deploy.

OVERVIEW

Lattice Command provides:

- Structured placement of multiple price-interaction levels across a configurable order network

- Controlled aggregation of positions into managed baskets

- Ghosting Technology — a proprietary trigger-filtering system that tracks early price interactions without executing, filtering noise before capital is committed

- Signal Mode (SIGNA) — gate grid builds using RSI, DeMarker, Stochastic, MA Touch, MA Cross, MA Angle, MACD, Engulfing, or Pin Bar signals on any timeframe

- Direction Mode — BUY ONLY, SELL ONLY, or BOTH sides of the network

- Entry Filter System — four independent filter slots per side gating order triggers with configurable signal type, period, timeframe, threshold, and cross/territory modes

- Automated lifecycle handling from entry to closure

- Continuous monitoring of drawdown, margin, and execution state

- Robust multi-layer safeguards against abnormal market or account conditions

- Dual distance mode: fixed-pip or ATR-adaptive level spacing

- Production-hardened persistent state that survives terminal crashes, VPS restarts, and power interruptions

- Tester-matched execution fidelity — the simulation in Vision and the backtest in Strategy Tester are aligned at a structural level, so behaviour transfers cleanly from study to deployment

INTENDED USE

Appropriate for traders requiring repeatable, rule-based execution behaviour, risk-focused users automating predefined order-network strategies, prop-firm environments with strict loss constraints, developers seeking a stable hardened execution layer, and users who have validated parameters through Lattice Vision, backtesting, or their own research. Not intended for signal generation, predictive or discretionary trading, or guaranteed outcomes.

GHOSTING TECHNOLOGY — PROPRIETARY TRIGGER FILTERING

Ghosting Technology solves a fundamental problem with order-network systems: the initial price interactions when entering a lattice are often noise — premature triggers during unstable conditions before price has committed to a direction. A configurable ghost threshold defines how many initial interactions are tracked but not executed. Ghost triggers count toward the basket lifecycle and appear on the chart as distinct markers, but no order is placed. Only after the ghost threshold is exceeded do subsequent interactions trigger real execution. This is not a simple delay — it is a structural filter that fundamentally changes how and when capital is committed. The ghost count is behaviourally identical to Lattice Vision, so parameters discovered in Vision deploy with the same filtering in Command.

SIGNAL MODE — GATE GRID BUILDS WITH MARKET SIGNALS

Configure independent sell-side and buy-side signals to control when the grid builds. Nine signal types are supported: RSI, DeMarker, Stochastic, MA Touch, MA Cross, MA Angle, MACD, Engulfing candle, and Pin Bar. Each signal has its own timeframe, period, threshold, and sensitivity. Two trigger modes — Cross (fires once on threshold crossing) and Territory (continues while inside the zone) — with configurable cooldown between fires. Signal parameters load directly from your Lattice Vision .SET file.

---

DIRECTION MODE

A single parameter cycles between BOTH (full two-sided network), BUY ONLY (lower lines only), and SELL ONLY (upper lines only). Apply a directional bias without changing any other parameter. Exports and loads via .SET file.

---

ENTRY FILTER SYSTEM — GATE TRIGGERS WITH MARKET CONDITIONS

Four independent filter slots — two sell-side, two buy-side — support SMA, RSI, DeMarker, and Stochastic filter types. Each slot has its own period, timeframe, threshold range, and reverse-logic option. All-mode requires the filter to pass on every trigger throughout the basket; Cross-mode fires only on fresh threshold crossings. A global signal cooldown prevents rapid re-triggering across all filters. All filter settings load directly from your Lattice Vision .SET file.

RISK CONTROL

Multi-layer risk architecture designed for traders who prioritise capital protection.

Stealth Basket Stop — Equity-monitored soft stop that closes the basket when unrealised PnL falls below a configurable threshold without exposing stop levels to the broker.

Hard Basket Stop — A lower hard threshold that closes the basket and permanently halts trading. Acts as a final safety net for catastrophic moves.

Stop-Loss Polarity Guard — Automatic detection and refusal of incorrectly-polarised SL values. Stops set to positive values instead of negative are caught at startup with an explicit warning rather than silently triggering instant basket closure. One less way to accidentally blow up an account.

Spread Guard — Blocks new orders when live spread exceeds a configurable point threshold, preventing execution during abnormal liquidity events.

Live Mode Flag — Explicit activation required for real order placement, preventing accidental live deployment during configuration.

---

EXECUTION HARDENING

Persistent State Recovery — All basket state, position records, grid lines, and session variables are continuously written to MetaTrader 5 GlobalVariables. Full recovery on terminal restart from any point in the basket lifecycle. No manual intervention required.

Broker Compatibility — Automatic detection and handling of filling modes across ECN, Standard, and Raw accounts. Lot sizes normalised to broker volume step automatically.

Tester-Matched Execution — Signal, filter, and direction logic are evaluated on the same bar semantics in Vision, Command, and the MT5 Strategy Tester. What you measure in a study is what you trade live. Configuration warnings are emitted at startup for logically silent setups (e.g., Direction Mode = BUY ONLY with no buy-side signal configured) so misconfigurations are caught before they cost time.

Market Hours Guard — Order placement is blocked during market close windows, preventing execution against closed or illiquid conditions.

SIGNA Diagnostics — Signal-mode configuration is logged at startup and every fire is journalled with a timestamp. If a configuration is not behaving as expected, the journal tells you exactly what is firing, when, and why.
