It's only 3 hour and half from London Breakout today, and I am already gaining almost 100 pips (trading with 7 pair) with your London Breakout system and The Trend Channel I have mentioned before in previous post.
This is the fourth day straight and this London Breakout system and The Trend Channel combination strategy is showing stronger result for me.
I just trade the pattern. Adding Trend channel to your already great London breakout is really help to figure out the pattern.
Wish you good life and success with your future trading.
Just pu on my #2nd pase trap now...
Many thanks..man.

Btw... Thanks Squalou..
Thanks for your attention. Well.. I am no coder nor EA Expert. So I am absolutely in blank page here....
Btw, I am seriously recommend to add Trend Channel to make this Great London Breakout strategy to more Powerful system, but still simple.
Just saw 7 trades in 7 different pair closed in my account this evening with total of 140 pips so far and it's still going right now. Starting from today's London breakout. Only Lost 10 pips. It's been four days straight that this strategy given me top result.
If anyone curious how I did this. Pls read my first post on this thread, about 2 pages from this post.
Now is time to set my 3rd pase of trap and go to bed...
Thanks Everyone..
Good luck with your trading.

Just to let everyone know, my EA appears to have done as required today.
14 trades: 7 winners: +31 pips: winning trades had bigger 'boxes' than the losers, which accounts for the profit.
I am putting this on one of my live accounts because this is the only test that really counts.

Hi steve
Do have to attach the EA everytime before the london open or can we leave it on the chart and it will open trades.
Give serious thought to stopping it trading from about 14.00 gmt. Once London goes home 2-3 hours later, the markets go dead until Sydney wakes up a few hours later. Trades placed during this period are highly unlikely to travel to a tp.

Hello guys,
I like the simple idea behind this system!
Here are my 2cents (1cent?...) contribution if i may:
I changed the indicators to make them STILL draw the box and the fibs when the box size exceeds "MaxBoxSize" input, but in different color (LightPink).
This gives an immediate view of what would have been the outcome of still trading it those "red" days.
Btw, I am seriously recommend to add Trend Channel to make this Great London Breakout strategy to more Powerful system, but still simple.
I don't want you to feel that your contribution is not important, I think it is a very interesting idea and may look into it myself, but I can't allow every trader who thinks his way is better to just run all over this thread and start to change everything and make things more confusing, understand?

Glad to see that you trust this enough to test live, but I would hold off til we get some more definitive results. But if you're determined, please use very small lots to start, otherwise I'd feel a little guilty if you accidentally blew up an account.

- Backtesting - waste of time.
- Demotesting - not much better. I am certain the criminals bias their data feeds in favour of trading robots. No idea how, but it is simply amazing how often a robot performs fantastically well on demo, only to corpse the instant it hits a live account.
- The only way to test a robot is live.
Anybody daft enough to think backtesting works, I merely refer you to point 2.
Thanks for your concern, Scott.

Hello Steve,
thank you for the EA.
It seems to me, that there is a bug in void GetHiLo(string symbol).
I mean that correct code should be:
//Calculate the high and low
bhighest = iHigh(symbol, PERIOD_M15, iHighest(symbol, PERIOD_M15, MODE_HIGH, StartShift - EndShift, EndShift));
blowest = iLow(symbol, PERIOD_M15, iLowest(symbol, PERIOD_M15, MODE_LOW, StartShift - EndShift, EndShift));
The blunder wasn't Sir Ronald's, it was mine when I adapted the code snippet he sent me.
Scott, you need to replace the version in post 1 with this one. Sorry about this; I know what a faff this involves.
By the by, I pm'd Matt Kennel today for the code for calculating the Martingale stuff. The guy is a genius, and was kind enough to supply it. I will add this tomorrow, along with the max losers allowed, then the robot is pretty much finished.

Thank you, Steve!
But I am sorry, you should change code a bit more, not only PERIOD_M15:
//Calculate the high and low...
Sing out if you think I am wrong.
Cheers
