//| EVERY INPUT THIS EA TAKES IS AN ENUM, and each enum's VALUE IS    |
//| ITS PAYLOAD. SL_ATR_x2 is literally 2, RISK_PCT_3 is literally 3, |
//| so a consumer writes `m_atr * SL_Mode` with no lookup table and   |
//| no switch that can fall out of step with the list. The MT5        |
//| optimizer steps over members, so a sweep can only ever produce a  |
//| legal configuration - which is the real reason for the dropdowns. |
//|                                                                   |
//| ORDINALS ARE PINNED AND NEVER REUSED. MT5 stores an input's VALUE |
//| in the .set file and in each chart's .chr, and does not validate  |
//| it against the current enum. Renumbering a member therefore       |
//| silently re-points every saved configuration at a different       |
//| setting. Gaps in the sequence are deliberate headstones for       |
//| members that were removed; leave them.                            |

//--- +0.002 / +0.017 across 20 series. Nearly all of the separation is in refusing the bottom, not
