Entry Filter & Payment Support Included [Box Breakout Order-kun]
What Is the Popular Box Range Breakout
A box range breakout refers to
the high and low within a certain period treated as a box, and when price breaks out of that range,
you enter, making it a popular method because the rules are clear.
There are many popular products on fx-on that deal with this kind of method.
Traders who use discretion often draw horizontal lines manually without waiting for a specific time,
entering on the breakout in the direction of the trend from there,
and there are also many methods that involve dividing the day into specific time periods and
considering the range width within that period,
and entering when it breaks out of there,“○○ Time Box Breakout”
the so-calledmethods are numerous.
◆What is a breakout method segmented by time?
・NY Box Breakout Method (invented by Rob Booker)
(Boxes at NY time 0:00 and 7:00 (Tokyo time 14:00 and 21:00))
・London Open Range Breakout
(Treat the 3 hours before the London open as a box,
and enter if it breaks within 15 minutes after the London open)
・Daily range breakout
・Asian Time Breakout
(Box from 9:00 to 15:00 Japan time)
If you look into it a little,
there are breakout methods for many different time zones.
This time, we will introduce the highly popular box breakout evolved further,
a customizable semi-discretionary EA “Box Breakout Order-Kun”
for your consideration!
Addressing the Weaknesses of Breakouts with Entry Filters and Settlement Support
The weakness of breakout methods is that simply breaking out of the box and jumping in
can quickly move against you, causing a stop loss to be hit
(usually the stop is set at the high or low of the opposite side of the box)
even if profits accumulate, you might not reach the take profit in pips, or
after hitting the take profit width, price may continue moving, leaving you frustrated.
With the “Box Breakout Order-Kun,”
an entry filter is built in by default,
① In a clear trend, choose only Buy or Sell
② Retrieve the Entry Filter (OSMA and ADX) from indicators or MQ functions
to select.
(It will be an AND condition, so ① and ② can be used together)
Also, for settlement,the same settlement support as “Discretionary Settlement Support-Kun PRO”is adopted,
so profits are parked up to the minimum guaranteed profit in pips with a trailing stop,
ensuring you don’t get stopped out after profits have accrued due to a reversal.
