Trade the BOX
It is the must-have utility to help you automate the execution of your trading plan, managing scale-up, partial profit booking, and trade managing. It is very intuitive. You need to load it on a chart, set your trading plan, select your range with the BOX, and double-click to activate the trades. Trade the BOX will take it over, ensuring your trading plan is mechanically executed without deviation.
As it is a bot handling your trades, Scalpers, you will adore this utility, as the execution is optimum and fast, allowing you to book every pip you want to add to your trading journal. Intraday traders, you can set your trade and let this secure the position, book partials, and trail your stop to book the maximum profit of a move. ICT and Smart Money concepts traders, this utility is for you. I use it daily to trade order blocks, fair value gaps (FVG), and ICT setups.

The EA functionalities:
The EA's main goal is to execute your trading plan mechanically without deviation from your initial strategy. Its main advantage is that it can fit your trading style if you trade breakouts, trade ranging markets, and trade support and demand. You can control this in one click by changing the box trade mode.
Easy to use, just in a few clicks, you can enable or disable the levels you want to include, like stop loss, take profits, break-even, and trailing stop. Its intuitive and easy-to-use panel will facilitate your trading. Before pulling the trigger, you can quickly show or hide those levels in your graph to confirm your plan.
Setting trades is as easy as double-clicking on the range. The range will become active, and pending orders will be open depending on your configurations. Another double click will close all the trades if they are still pending orders. You can access the panel to instantly close all buy or sell orders. The EA can also open a set of buy and sell orders with a predefined distance, a sort of grid. However, the EA will also manage the settings for every trade and follow your rules for stop loss, take profits, break-even and/or Trailing stops.
Once trades are in place, the configuration is no more changeable, and the EA will mechanically handle your trades, securing your trade and booking your profit.
This EA is compatible with "DrawDown Limiter" together you will have a winning arsenal for every trading day.
