Simple Breakout System By Zach (EA)

Guys,

Attached is a new version 1.5 of the EA. The new features in this version are:

  1. new EntryPoint parameter (still experimental) to specify the entry point when a breakout occurs. If TPSLstrategy is fibonacci and EntryPoint = 100, EA will open a instant market order. In all others cases, the EA will place a pending order to wait for a retracement (and try to get a better R:R) :

    1. if TPSLstrategy is fibonacci, the entry point will be a fibonacci value too
    2. if TPSLstrategy is pips, it will be a pip value

  2. new AsianSessionPipsMin parameter: like AsianSessionPipsMax, EA will not trade if the breakoutBox range is lower than this pips value.
  3. Each time a new fibo is drawn by the EA, the previous one will be removed to keep a clean chart.

I will try to post some example for the EntryPoint if it's not clear enough.

Here is an example of how the EntryPoint parameter could improve the results :

If I take GBPJPY from 2017.01.01 to 2017.06.01. With the original parameters (TP at 161.8%, SL at 50%, entry at 100%), the result with 0.1 lot is: -718.54

Now the same test with entry point at 80%, SL at 16%, TP at 160%, the result is: +315.49

Hi Damiend,

thanks a lot for this nice Ea,
In Backtest it seems like you can improfe the Performance of it by adding a trailing stop.
I think you shold add an trailingstop, that is not related to the fib take Profit.
So you can takte Profit at the 168 fib and use a trailing stop

looking Forward to this Feature
best regards
Hi Damiend,

thanks a lot for this nice Ea,
In today's forward test, we got some green pips. But when i change a parameter of Ea such as BreakoutPipsConfirmation from 10 to 6,
the chart start to toggle, and i check the log tab, it print lots of logs.

adding lot by risk, maximize with trailing stop will be good EA
Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing.
Hi all,

This EA is very similar to Horizon Break I coded, have a look at it, it may be of interest as more flexible.

Is the problem only for sell? As at your posting #52 the long position is already correct.

IMHO....Oh maybe it is due to it's logic. The EA will directly open the trade (sell/buy) just right after the body candle of M15 closed and confirmed touch fibo 100% or over. In your case the M15 body candle closed over fibo 100%. So that was the timing where EA decided to start open sell/buy.

the EA's name is breakout but it places limit orders! shouldnt a breakout system relay on stop order?!
