Designed for the Experienced or Professional Trader

The Forex Breakout Professional Edition Robot offers the trader the ability to trade any strategy on any currency during any time frame. With a built in magic number a trader can use multiple instances of the Robot on the same platform.

This way you can trade the London Open with one set of parameters and also trade the New York open on the same currency but with different trading rules on the same meta trader platform.

There is also a "day" selector that enables you to pick the days of the week you want the EA to trade.

Also included is the ability to whose a moving average as a qualifier or trend indicator to enable you to determine the trend during the session prior to placing a pending breakout trade.

If you wish to bracket the trade. i.e. place a long and a short at the end of a predetermined time period the EA has an OCO feature so that if your long order is triggered the short is automatically cancelled and vice versa.

Look at the screen shots of the inputs to see all of the settings that can be adjusted
