AP DayTrader Impulse Box MT4

Allan Graham Pike
I believe markets deserve specialist tools built with the same discipline and focus as the markets themselves. Too many EAs try to trade everything in every way—and end up doing none of it well. My approach is simple: build single-mission systems that express one clear edge with clarity and control. - Version: 1.0

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.
