What it does
Intraday engine that combines a session “box” range (M5) with an impulse filter (EMA/RSI on M15). When price escapes the box with momentum confirmation, the EA places a single market order in that direction. One position per symbol.
-
Simple logic, few knobs
-
Box + impulse confirmation
-
No martingale, no grid, no averaging
-
Works on netting accounts
How entries are decided
-
Build a time-window “box” from recent session hours (start/end inputs).
-
Wait for price to escape the box by a buffer (points).
-
Confirm impulse via fast/slow EMA alignment and RSI filter.
-
Send a single order with SL/TP (ATR-based by default).
-
Optional breakeven + ATR trail once price moves in favor.
