Usd comes trailing in last with a ho-hum +18 pips and we only get to use a multiplier of 2 because of the late partial loss last night. That gives us a total +36 pips.

You just have to be patient guys, this EA Steve has modified is not specifically designed for this strategy. He has tweaked from his Asian breakout. I'm sure Steve will chime in and hopefully produce some answers for everyone.
One suggestion is this. Alpari are beggars for disconnecting their demos, sometimes for quite long periods. On load up, the robot instantly displays the feedback screen; if the demo is disconnected, the robot has no data to work with and so displays zero values.
Try using the attached to generate ticks and see if this fixes the problem. I have no other ideas to offer.

Thanks to the incomparable Ronald Raygun who supplied the code, the robot will now pick up the extent of the most recent box whenever we load it onto are charts. The values displayed are also more accurate.
I have added code to spot re-entry opportunities. At the moment, this is a bit of a blunt instrument, in that it sends a pending trade at PendingPipsDistanceOnReEntry away from market as soon as the price retraces within the Entry prices and the extent of the box. I opted for pending rather market trades to give the retrace room to continue if this is going to happen.
We might want to change this to closer to the extent of the box. Let's try it and see.
Sing out if any bugs appear.
Enhancements coming up are:

I have edited post 174 with details of the latest update to the robot - added some more code.
