§  Take profit: 0

§  Stop loss: 0

§  Trailing Stop: 0

§  Start Hour: 07:00

2.        Bar finish and Macd histogram end on positive, it confirms direction change. Open order is set, as “open order” parameter is set at 30, it means; (closing price 1.15270 – 30 = 1.15240). Open order at 1.15240 is met and trade is open.

3.        Macd histogram breaks into negative from positive and finish on negative, it confirms direction change.

4.        A market order is executed to close the buy trade, it trigged at closing price 1.15280. it generates a profit of 40 points. (no spread or market order is taken in account for this example)

5.        Open order is set with an open order win of 30, closing price of the bar at 1.15280 + 30 = 1.15310. Look that as this is a sell order the “open order win” needs to be sum. It looks like open order is meet and a sell trade is on.
