Initially, this EA alerts (if possibility checked) when an emblem enters into a variety section. Then, it would anticipate breakout of the vary (with extra filters if wanted) to ship an alert and/or to open an order. The principle benefit of this EA is that it lets you customise the specs of your vary.
To do that, you outline the three following parameters:
- ‘Timeframe for bars calculation‘: the min vary size can be calculated on this Timeframe.
- ‘Min vary size in bars‘: the value should not go outdoors the vary throughout this minimal of bars.
- ‘Max vary dimension in pips‘: the value should transfer inside this value vary.
You too can outline the breakout distance by giving a worth to the ‘Min distance breakout in pips‘ parameter: a breakout happens when the value crosses a minimal distance from the vary.
The 4 parameters talked about above seem in blue within the graph beneath:
Then, the opposite benefits of this EA are:
- It could robotically place Cease Loss on the opposite aspect of the vary when an order is opened.
- It consists of extra filters (shifting common, Pivot Factors, different filters may be applied on demand).
- It has a whole administration of orders (break even, trailing cease, closing earlier than weekend, max misplaced/day …).
- It could work with all market watch symbols directly.

Magic quantity: should be distinctive if different EA are working
‘Max open orders’, ‘Max % misplaced / day’ and ‘Max % win/day’ are calculated from the magic quantity. For instance, when you have 3 EAs with the identical magic quantity, the overall variety of orders opened would be the sum of the orders opened in these 3 EAs.
Max open orders: max variety of orders opened concurrently (if 0, no max)
Max % misplaced/day: if max worth is reached, the EA open orders are closed and no different order is opened till the following day (if 0, no max)

Max slippage: max allowed slippage to open an order
Similar comment as ‘Max unfold’.
