Confirm DLL functions calls - Exercise manual permission for every function call, either allow it or disallow it depending on your trade parameters.
Allow External Experts imports - This is used to allow your Expert-Advisor to reference some data from another EA that's in another place, away from your PC computer, (External means these Expert-Advisor Gold Robots are referenced from external sources outside your PC computer, so you need to be careful with this option).
