Copier filter

The copier filter can be used to allow only specific trades based on the comment or magic number. Here are some examples:

Type	Regex	Description
Comment	my EA	It copies only the trades that have "my EA" in the comment field
Comment	^my EA	It copies only the trades that have "my EA" in the beggining of the comment field
Comment	^my EA$	It copies only the trades that have exactly "my EA" in the comment field
Magic number	5	It copies only the trades that have "5" as magic number. Pay attention that "15" will also be copied.
Magic number	^5$	It copies only the trades that have "5" as magic number.
