Hope everyone's Christmas was good.

So are people having a lot success with this system? Whoever is, please let me know what differences there are between your way and the strategy as originally posted by dznmrd. There's a lot to digest in this topic and it's not apparent whose wrinkles and variations are getting the best results.

Does any one have the EA to create the pending orders?
I mean to create like the indicator NewYorkBox?
The default value are following the rules (box between 7 to 9 am NYT) a Margin of 5 pips (above and below) the high and low for entry point, then 15 - 30 - 45 pips to profit, and the SL on the other side of the box.
Thank you!
And Happy New Year!

Wow what a long thread.
I read the whole thing, thanks to all of you for your hard work at explaining this. If most people read the whole thing almost all questions would be answered.
I will be trying Gangstr1's method for a while on demo.
It just sounds too logical.

If you read the entire thread you would know what time
Just put a clock on your screen, set it to New York time, and wait for it to hit 7 am, look at your metatrader time and that is the time to set it to.
It is not that complicated.

Hi,

Everyones sharing such a lot on ForexFactory, I thought i will take the time to share with all too what i have learnt that works.

I just got this idea from a friend, who gets this idea from another. (nerd)
We called it the Big Dog 1400-1600 USD Breakout Strategy. (Around US OPEN)

Its a simple strategy. You need not have any indicator, just the default ones found in your metatrader.

Daily Profit Potentials: Around 30-50pips +

All you need to do is the following:-

1. Pull out a M15 Chart for a USD Major pair, example like GBPUSD.
2....
Hello !...sorry for my bad language...
what means ..."6. The signals are only valid for the current day", ...it's valid until 4 pm (NY) trading day ...or 12 pm (NY) all day?

Can anyone provide a suggestion as to how I can modify the inputs such as time range and the GMT shift.

I can edit them on the indicator, but they so not stay . . . reverting to the default. When I click on the modify button, nothing comes up so I can't seem to change the parameters that way either.

I'd like to change it so its default is 7-9 am EST, and possibly, 5-7pm EST for the asian session.

OR . . . if there is another indicator out there that works pretty much the same and can be modified, please let me know.

Try saving a chart with the indicator set up to your liking as a "Template" then use the template when you need it.

The template should save the indicator with the settings as you like and you can then apply them as you need them.

Hi Rbi & All

I'm not sure how this ea works but I think it's a great idea. This is a very profitable system and I was wondering if you would mind working with me to rework this ea.

I've been using the New York Box for a couple of years and it works great except you need to set up the buy stop & sell stop trades for each pair.

The New York Box gives the entry price, tp1, tp2, tp3, and the stop loss and it's all user controlled. That means the trader can determine the margin above or below the box range as well as the TP depending on trading style.

If you're interested please let me know, I've been looking for someone to program this for awhile.

Thanks.

I'd like to thank you to all people, who are improving this method and as so I post my backtest for first half of the year 2009. Very profitable and only one losing month. I'm using dubaitrader's setup and it works fine for me.
I'm planing to go live from march. I've backtested it with help of metatrader and forextester. I use PT 50 and SL 30. I think there could be some improvements, but this setup works and I don't want to overoptimalize this.
I wish profitable trading with this method to everyone using it.

First time posting. I have been following this thread for some time.
Can anyone help me distinguish between Ea's

I believe the 3 most recent are from RBI, Anthony and Henry (adapted Anthony )

I am trying to run RBI latest Box Breakout v 1.3 .

Is there a consensus one to use and if so does it run with Slope Direction Line?

I would also appreciate a set file that would be the most current to verify settings.

I truly respect all the contributors here for their efforts, especially the ones that put in time to create and share these EA's

I ran Box breakout v 1.3 this morning but did not catch a trade. Would have been a good one.

I am one a metatrader language 4 platform

Thanks

can anyone recommend a good broker for this strategy, i'm guessing a broker with 2 pip spreads or better on gbpusd would be best.
