Zenthium US100 — New York Opening Range Breakout for the Nasdaq 100
Zenthium US100 is an Expert Advisor built exclusively for the Nasdaq 100 index (US100 / USTEC / NAS100) on the 15-minute timeframe. It trades the breakout of the New York session opening range — the most liquid and volatile moment of the day — and manages every position with a smart exit based on least-squares linear regression.

HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. Opening box: measures the high and low of the first 15 minutes after the Wall Street open (9:30–9:45 New York time).
2. Context filters before trading (using closed data only, no repainting):
• Skips boxes that are too small relative to daily volatility (ATR).
• Does not buy after a strong weekly drop in the index.
• Does not trade after an indecision day ("flat day").
• Does not chase price if it already broke out before the order is placed.
3. Entry: Buy Stop order at the top of the box. Long only, maximum one trade per day.
4. Trade management:
• Stop Loss always active at the middle of the box.
• Take Profit equal to the box size.
• Dynamic ATR-based trailing stop.
• Linear regression (least squares): if the intraday trend is strong and clean, the Take Profit is removed to let the profit run; when the trend weakens, the profit is secured. A regression channel stop protects open gains.
• Daily regime filter: when the daily trend is weak, it switches back to a fixed-TP management.
5. Daily close: all positions are closed before the end of the session. No overnight positions (no overnight swaps).
No martingale, no grid, no averaging down. Fixed risk per trade.

RECOMMENDED SETUP
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Symbol: Nasdaq 100 (US100 / USTEC / NAS100, depending on the broker).
• Timeframe: M15.
• Account type: RAW / ZERO spread (low or zero spread). Execution cost is key for an opening breakout strategy.
• Reference broker: developed and tested on Gerchik & Co, ZERO account.
• Server time: default inputs are set for GMT+2/GMT+3 servers synchronized with New York (Wall Street open = 16:30 server time). If your broker uses a different time zone, adjust the box start time (InpRangeStart) so it matches 9:30 New York time.
• Suggested risk: 0.5%–1% per trade.
• A VPS is recommended so the EA is always running at the New York open.
